Hubris: Volume 3

Chapter 55: Sentiment!

Zeldris: "OWWWWW!"

Zeldris rubbed his head due to the love punch he had received from Annie, Annie cut her brown hues before pouting slightly.

Annie: "You know how I feel about showing affection in public Zeldris...it's kind of embarrassing, especially when everyone is staring at us like that."

Zeldris heard her voice and loved every single second of it, he heart fluttered..he was so happy to see her once again. All his efforts did not go to waste..he really got to see her again.

Zeldris: "I'm sorry..I just couldn't resist."

Annie giggled before walking forward slightly.

Annie: "Don't be, it let's me know you still like me. Just not in public okay?"

Zeldris nodded before following behind her, Zeldris looked around..he started to realise things were way different. He felt shorter..and much younger, he remembered certain shops that were once closed down were reopened.

Zeldris: "Wait a minute, Annie."

Annie turned around.

Annie: "Hm?"

Zeldris: "I'm not used to you answering me..when I call your name."

Annie: "What are you talking about? We were together yesterday."

Zeldris: "Yeah but..I just really missed you."

Annie: "Eh?! Zeldris are you okay? You've never been this affectionate before. Did I hit you too hard or something?"

Zeldris: "No! Forget it. Where are we going now?"

Annie: "Zeldris, we planned this yesterday don't you remember? We're going to the shopping district."

Zeldris nodded.

Zeldris: "How could I forget! I promised to take you out didn't I?"

Annie smiled at him before saying.

Annie: "I'm glad you remembered, you know breaking promises around me makes me lose trust. Being unlucky enough for me to lose trust in you is like having the moon stop following you."

Annie replied waving her finger at him before walking forward once again. Zeldris had a nervous laugh, he remembered the wrath Annie could have if he messed things up. Annie got quite the distance away from Zeldris..but Zeldris didn't mind, he admired her. Her long silky brown hair that smelled like a ambrosial coconut, her perfect hourglass figure and her long slender legs..being around her, your day was automatically blissful..she was made by the angels and Gods above, she was so beautiful even the Gods that had created her wouldn't dare touch her. Zeldris didn't realise he was gawking, Annie turned around with an annoyed expression before cutting her eyes at him. She raised her clenched fist before saying.

Annie: "How long are you going to stare at my ass?"

Zeldris gasped before slapping the sides of his face before racing over.

Zeldris: "Sorry Annie, I didn't mean to!"

Annie: "It's fine..I don't mind it too much, but just know if you gawk too long..you'll see stars."

Zeldris: "What do you mean..that I will get dizzy?"

Annie gave him a mischievous look before shaking her head lightly. She then opened the mall doors before stepping in.

Zeldris: "Oh....OH!! I'm sorry!"

The scene changed and Zeldris was walking Annie home, when the two had arrived Zeldris stopped before looking down at Annie. Annie stood at 5'6 while Zeldris stood at 5'7 Zeldris gave Annie a light smile before it turned it into a slight expression of distraught.
