The Light at the End of the Tunnel |A Garmau Story|

Chapter 3: The Exploration of Events

A week after the incident
Garroth's POV

Aphmau is doing much better! I'm so glad to see that her beautiful eyes are bright yet another day. Oh how wish she knew the way I feel.
It's turning night and here foots steps approaching my door. (Because Garroth actually has his own house.) I open it to see Aphmau.
"Hello Aphmau!"
"Hey Garroth can I come in?"
"Absolutely!" I escort the angel to my couch where she sits and pats the seat next to her signalling me to sit.
"Garroth I wanted to ask about that night. "
"Yes?"
"The figure I...I couldn't hit it. I...I f...fought so hard. " I saw the fear in her eyes as they became crystallised by the tears flowing down her cheeks. I put my arm around her and she puts her head in my neck crying. I comfort her as she continues to speak. "It kept saying " Maybe if your dead then Garroth will be to torn up to fight" and he kept laughing at me while hitting me."
The angel cried even harder. "Aphmau I won't let it touch you anymore! If it wants me then by Lady Irene it can have me, But I'll never let it lay a hand on the angel I hold in mine." I gasp at what I've just said. She looks up at me and smiles while wiping away her tears.
"You really think I'm an angel?"
"Yes, sent from Lady Irene."
Aphmau smiles and her face looks she hasn't even cried.
"Well, I should be getting home soon. "
"Yeah. " I say standing up putting my hand on the back of my neck.
Aphmau opens the door then a loud BOOM went off. It was a thunder storm a bad one too. Aph jumped at the sound and closed the door quickly. She turned around and looked very terrified and was shaking like a threatened rattle snake. Then another BOOM followed by a crack of lightning. Aphmau slid her back down the door way and put her head in knees and began to sob. I pick her up and take her to my bed and gently lay down my "weeping angel".
I wrap her in my arms as she sobs in my neck. I lay down pulling her with me. Her head rests on my chests with my hand wrapped around her waist while my other hand was on her thigh as it laid across my stomach. She was spooning me unnoticeably. I blush at the thought. Aphmau fell asleep I kiss her forehead knowing she's okay.
Then that moment I remember, the note that Dale gave me.
Dear loved ones of Lord Aphmau,
My apologies to your Lord is all beaten up. I'm sorry that was my bad, I thought she was dead or else I would've never left. At least now I can make Garroth suffer even more. I'd protect her and love her while you can, because the won't be anymore room for that in the nether. Love is what kills a shadow night, so we kill the love.

Signed by yours truly,
The Dark Shadow

I fell asleep from all the stress. In the morning I'm going to order a 24 hour patrol. Anything for Aph.
