"You asshole." Y/N glared at Garroth, who winced at her snappy attitude. He hadn't told her about his.. incident. But, in return, she hadn't told him about how serious her arm injury was, "You could've died! You don't think I should've known about it? You would've died if Aphmau hadn't gotten that potion from the lord of Brightport!" Y/N stood from her chair, glaring down at Garroth who lay in bed, still in his guard uniform. He studied the girls face, her beautiful eyes narrowed on him in anger and her fists clenched at her sides that continued to give her away.
"You look beautiful.. even when you're giving me a death glare." Garroth reached for one of her fisted hands, and Y/N didn't have the heart not to accept his hand. She held his hand in her own and sighed, sitting back down in her chair in defeat. She had few weaknesses, Garroth being one of them. She hated the effect he had on her, and she hated how he held himself back from her as well. She was fully aware that the last thing she needed was a relationship, especially after what she'd been through those few years ago. She couldn't help the way Garroth made her heart and stomach flutter, her best friend who she knew damn well had feelings for her.. but had no idea why he was so inclined to deny them.
"You look like an asshole." She smirked at him, and he scoffed at her rejection of the compliment.
"I recall you having a lot to talk to me about..?" Y/N raised an expectant brow at her injured friend, who grew tense at the mention of the news he had yet to share with her.
Zenix
Zenix had a stupid crush on Y/N, it was something she teased him for and something that he would lose his mind over whenever anyone mentioned it. He had truly looked up to her, and she had truly cared about him, no matter how much she teased him for how he felt. Not only that, but Visher.. he was a kind man that Y/N spoke highly about, how would she take his death? How would she take these sudden attacks, all these new villagers.. and, did she even know that Aphmau was the lord?
"I could fill her in!" Kiki burst into the building, making the both of them jump at her sudden appearance.
"Kiki.." Y/N sighed, smiling at her animal loving friend who carefully embraced her.
"I'm so glad you're home, not so glad you aren't resting.. but, we can talk outside if you'd like?" Kiki smiled, but Y/N took note of how it didn't reach her lively green eyes. This news, whatever it was, wasn't going to be something she was going to like. Y/N looked back at Garroth, giving his hand a squeeze and leaving the house with an anxious Kiki. The red head shut the door gently, and brought Y/N over to the docks to prepare her for whatever news awaited her.
"It really is good to see you, you've really kept the village afloat! You're so strong, and you're beautiful too!" Kiki had placed her hands on Y/N's shoulder, who was looking at her with narrowed eyes.
"What are you buttering me up for.." The mercenary murmurs to Kiki, who sighs at being caught. Y/N grabbed one of Kiki's hands and held them in her own, giving her a look that did nothing for Kiki's nerves.
