Douxie's POV
We're walking out of the forest in a silence, and not that comforting silence we used to share, an awkward one. She's angry I can tell, not sure if it's with me tho. I didn't notice before but she looks almost scared, her knuckles clenched at her sides, her chest raising and falling rather quickly.
"Azara?" I question quietly as I stop my walking. I think she doesn't hear me as she takes a few steps forward but then she stops. Her back is to me and I can't see her expressions but I can tell she's upset. I just want to know why.
"Why have you been pretending not to know me? I mean I haven't seen you for nine hundred years. I thought you were dead. I missed you. Didn't you miss me too?" I rapidly ask all at once other questions threatening to come out as well.
I don't think she took something I said very well. Her shoulders rise and her arms twitch as she clenches her fists harder, they're starting to change color.
"Azar-" she interrupts me as looks back at me over her shoulder.
"Why were you out here by yourself? You could've gotten killed." Her voice is stern, commanding me to give her an answer or else.
"Merlin," her brows forow in anger at the mention of my mentors name "he instructed me to keep the mortal plane safe from dark magic. So I'm following orders." I explain looking at her tense figure. She opens and closes her hands, her body completely turns to me as she takes a deep breath.
"Merlin? That's why you're putting yourself in danger? For him." I can't quite understand the tone she's speaking in but, her body language is saying she wants to strangle me for being stupid. I rub the back of my neck. "He may be your master but I am your princess, and from now on I want you to leave the shadow creatures to me. Don't you dare go near one of those things again. Oh and while I'm giving you orders... let's go back to being ignorant of each other, that's the only thing keeping you safe." She whispers the last part but the rest I heard loud and clear. Why is she being like this? What did I do?! I just want her back! Tears threaten to fall from my eyes.
"But I thought since, you know, you just saved my fucking life you were gonna speak to me again! Please Azara, just talk to me again." My tears run down my face as I practically beg her not to go. "Please, I just want my best friend back!" I let my emotions out in my final desperation before she opens a shadow portal and whispers "I'm sorry, Douxie" and she's gone.
I collapse on the ground. I can't control my sobs anymore. I had just gotten to see my best friend again and now she doesn't want to see me. I lost her again. My tears run down my face as I sit there wondering, 'What did she go thought these last nine hundred years for her to start acting like that?' my heart hurts.

Azara's POV
I come out the other side of the shadow portal right into my home's front porch. I look at the door, trying to reach out my hand and grad the handle but I can't. I stand there frozen, my chest rising and falling rapidly, hands trembling. I can feel the tears at the corners of my eyes.
'Why did I do that!?' 'I just left him there!' 'What is wrong with me?!' 'I should have answered any question he had, even if it took hours to answer them all!' 'I want to go back to him.'
Thoughts scream in my head, killing out any other noises. My heart is going faster and faster, my breaths get shorter, the world starts spinning. Tears rush down my face as I fall on my knees and hug my own body closer.
When did I do something to deserve this Merlin?
I see the lights from the front door. They shine on my face and as I look up Jim stands there looking shocked and worried.
"Aza?!" he rushes toward my trembling body and gently hold my shoulders. "Are you ok?! Why are you crying, are you hurt!?" he says in worry. But I can't say anything I can barely hear what he's saying. I slowly let go of myself and Jim pulls me into a gentle hug. "Do you want me to call mom?" he asks. I shake my head "N-No, I j-just need a...moment" I say between sobs "Im okay."
"Do you want to talk about it?" he pulls back and asks me. "Maybe tomorrow?" I reply hesitantly, getting up from the floor. I'm still crying as I face Jim "I'm going to my room see you in the morning little bro." I can feel him watching me walk into the house and up the stairs. I crawl into my bed and fall asleep to one thought.
'This is all Merlin's fault."
