Chapter 39

"O-oh... h-hello F-fire... how l-long have y-you been standing there?" you stutter as a wave of embarrassment overtakes you. You were sure you had to get out of here as fast as you could or else you would eventually faint from overwhelm and embarrassment.

Run away? He could be faster and grab you. Scalp him and then run away? Nah... too dangerous. Damn. How are you supposed to get out of here?

"L-long enough..." he also stuttered nervously.

Since you were quite uncomfortable with the whole situation, you just wanted to casually lean against the wall while still thinking about getting out of here somehow. Then, as you were leaning against the wall, a second later you were in Copia's arms. You forgot that you were standing in front of his door and just as you were about to lean against it, he opened the door and you fell over.

Everyone looked at you in shock, while Aether would have loved to laugh but kept his mouth shut.

Copia put you back down and you took the chance and quickly ran away until you were in your room and double and triple locked your door.

The whole evening you lay on your bed, while your face was as red as a tomato, and you wondered if you could ever leave the room again.

He just found out what you thought of him. He just found out that you dreamed about him often. He fucking found out that you kissed him when he was fucking unconscious.

What if he took it insulting now? What if he's not interested in you anymore and now because of the kiss and you've ruined everything?

So you spent the whole evening and half the night worrying about whether that was it with you two. With completely red and teary eyes you fell asleep and missed breakfast again.

Lunch was in 20 min, which is why you already wanted to go on the way, so as not to meet Fire. You looked into every hallway you went into at least three times to see if it was really Fire-free, until you actually went into the hallway. 5 minutes before the actual start of lunch you were already sitting with your plate in a corner where you could not be seen.

But you could observe well who is sitting there and eating. So you then also watched the whole time Fire, he looked often times to the door, probably in the hope that you would come through there, but that will unfortunately not happen.

Lunch was done than and everybody left, so you went back to your room, and set out to go into the forest. As always, you left on time. The weather was very pleasant and the birds chirped wildly, while the sun shone a little through the forest, where a light veil of mist crept through.

At your place you were somehow not after magic, but you just sat down there and thought, while you let your thoughts and tears just run free.

A crack of a branch, the sound of small falling stones and something falling jerked you out of your thoughts and you tried to catch Fire in time, which has just fallen from the small cliff, which ended at the bottom of your place.

Frightened, he curled up and lay in your arm for a moment, until he realized that you had caught him. "Are you all right? What did you do? Did you hurt yourself?" you sat him down on your homemade bench while the panic was still clearly driving him crazy.

You knelt down in front of him and put your hand on his thigh, hoping to somehow calm him down as he was still shaking. "I-I was going to watch y-you cast a spell...only then I slipped up there, I did try to hold on to the branches, but it was no use."  He looked down at his hand, which he hid a little as his tail lay down sadly beside him.

You took his hand, which he only reluctantly pulled away, and there you saw the small wound with splinters. "Oh Fire, what are you always doing.. Wait, it might hurt for a moment." You laughed and tried to remove the splinters and closed the wound with a spell.

"Now tell me, why were you up there?" You put a strand of his long hair behind his ear and then put your hand to his cheek so he looked you in the eye. "I wanted to see you again. You weren't at breakfast and lunch today, and I was sure I could at least meet you here."

You didn't notice that your love was sitting in front of you, the one you were crying about and racking your brains over 5 minutes ago, when your heart started pounding more and you got a little more nervous.

"W-why were y-you crying?" he asked you in a broken voice. "Oh...not important." you ramble. "Please... Air-Aice...I told you the truth too."  Now his warm hand was on your cheek, turning him to face you as you looked coldly at the floor beside him. 

You were still silent, now to just say "oh gosh Fire I was crying about you because I thought our chance was over." is the dumbest thing ever.

"Is it because of yesterday?" he asked cautiously where you just nodded coldly without emotion as you felt tears well up in your eyes again. "Air-Aice... oh man, you always will be my Air ... come here." he sat down next to you and threw an arm around your waist while you laid your head on his shoulder. You were silent for a moment before Fire then started talking as you felt his pulse start to rise as well.

"Listen, yesterday was just kind of a weird situation, how that came about I'm still wondering. But what Aether told you, what I think of you is absolutly..."
