It's been weeks ever since I arrived at the nether. My eyes are strained from all the red that envelopes this place. This place is still torture, but, he always lifts my spirits. Day by day, I grow more and more impatient, waiting to see him. When have I become so needy? When has my mind become so greedy? How long do I have until I turn? Will I ever turn? Questions flood my mind, as I look out my 'window', Which is not really a window, considering it's just a hole in the wall. I hear a knock in the door, turning around I walk over to open it. The croak of the door echos. Looking through the crack I made with the door I see Laurence. My heart skips a beat.

"Oh hi Laurence!" I gleefully open the door wider and grin.

"Hello my beautiful flower." My cheeks grow hot. "Are you blushing?"

"N-no! It's the heat!" I retort.

"hehe~ your so cute _____(name)." My cheeks grow more red. "May I come in?"

"Oh, sure!" I open the door wider and step aside, allowing him to enter. He walks in, setting his weapons to the side and taking a seat next to the small table in my room.

"How are you?" He asks.

"The usual, tired, strained, and bored." I reply, preparing yet another cup of tea, for me and Laurence. Once done, I hand it to Laurence.

"Thank you."

"I'm curious to know about your life in the over world, I've told you my stories, so tell me your's." I say as a conversation starter.

"Well, I'm an orphan who has a 'sister' named Cadenza."

"Oh." I can't imagine how it is not knowing your actual parents. We talk until a certain question comes up.

"Tell me about Samuel, if you are OK with it." Oh, I guess i can open up to him. I think to myself.

"Hmm... his personality was a lot like your's, sweet, kind, and gentlemanly. Minus the Casanova p-"

"H-hey!" He says, I even see him flush a bit.

"Look wise, he possesses light brown hair and pale blue eyes." I say. "I've learned to move on though, after all, to hold on hurts more than to let go."

~~~Timeskip~~~

Walking through the halls, I hear a loud bang. Using the teleport ring to teleport to the source of the noise. The sight makes my heart drop. A golden wyvren(?) and Laurence. Laurence climbs onto the wyvren, holding on tight. In a flash, the wyvren and Laurence are gone. Hurt, abandoned, alone, those are all words that describe my emotions. I drop to the floor sobbing. This feels so familiar...
