MC Diaries : A Garmau Story

XXIV. Somewhat Normal

A/N - IM SO LATE IM SO FRAGGING LATE I AKBSNDHFJJRNSN- I'm bored... Meow. (I'm sorry, it's just impossible for me to go a chapter without saying meow these days.) So, basically I'm making these next two chapters REALLY LONG, because ONE CHAPTER AFTER THIS IS THE END!!! I need suggestions for the name of the sequel. Got it? GOOD. And for good measure:

WARNING: LONG CHAPTER!!!!!

Aphmau's PoV

Black. Darkness. Eternal night. That's what I felt. I barely woke up, but at some point, I was reassured that Garroth was okay. I was slowly being nursed back to health for what seemed to be weeks, but only a few days.

~+++•+++~

I slowly slipped back into consciousness at some point in the middle of the night, and recounted what had happened nights ago..

"What about Garroth?" I asked.

"There's no need for him, he'll be fine." Will replied.

"O-o-okay.." I walked inside, Will pushing me in.

I got in bed, and he sat by my side. I started to doze off, and then became aware of his presence right next to my face.

"I'm sorry sweetheart, but the high priest promised me."

What did he promise you? I thought.

"I got promised.. I got promised that I'd have you." He lunged forward, and smashed his lips onto mine, and I screamed. He darted away, and I got up quickly enough to see Garroth get hit by a tranquilizer dart.

I started silently crying, now becoming aware that I was safe in Garroth's arms, and apparently, he heard or felt my tears.

He blinked a few times, looked down, and I watched as his face turn from nonchalant to shock, then to worry.
"What's wrong?" He asked quickly. "What happened, are you okay?"

"Just a... Nightmare.." I said. He wiped my tears. "It... It was about Will.."

"Aphmau.." He pulled me close, and hugged me hard against his chest.

*****

"AH!" I shrieked as I fell into the darkness, the familiar darkness that consumed me so often these days.

"Welcome back, princess." I stared into the eyes that so matched Garroth's.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO WILL?" I immediately screamed.

"Oh, he found you?" Zane created a screen with a flick of his hand. "Well, I just happened to see what went down that night." He smirked as the scene from two nights ago appeared. Will saying that he'd been promised, then smashing his lips onto mine.

"WILL- HE- YOU TRICKED HIM!"

"Oh really? Hadn't noticed." He waved dismissively. (Sorry, I'm sleepy and my grammar can sometimes be REALLY OFF.) "Well, I really must be going, goodbye, now!" He slashed his sword, cutting my right cheek, and nearly missing my eye. I flew into even more darkness.
