The Witch : The CresentSon Chronicles

Chapter 3

I don't know. I can't remember.
The girl lied down.
Focussing her thoughts she stared at the ceiling. She was told to lie down. Maybe she'll be refreshed in the morning. Maybe. She wanted to recall but something was stopping her. Still exhausted from all the events she closed her eyes and sighed heavily. Her heart began to beat steadily as she drifted away from reality.

"So now what?" Robin whispered. They both stood outside of her room. Evaluating the situation at hand. Or head. "We could help her get home." Leo suggested. "And how the hell you expected us to do that?" Robin responded. "Put up missing scrolls? Add her to the banner of missing teens?! Kn-"
"If you let me finish." he spoke in a low growl. Robin folded her arms. "Go on."
"Okay so we know where she fell off at right?" "Yeah, but she could've been pushed." "Although we don't know that for sure, what we can do is see if there's a village near there. Maybe someone knows her." Robin thought. Slowly she began to nod her head.

Oh how she despised the feeling she felt when his words made sense.

"Okay, what will we do before then?" she questioned. "Do you think we can get her a job here?" he asked. "Maybe." she responded.
"I'll see if Walter can arrange it." he began to walk away. Robin knew he had to go. It was beyond curfew so he shouldn't at the female's side of the servant's quarters. She watched him as he walked away hoping dearly he'd look back before leaving. Knowing the time, she understood why he didn't. What she couldn't understand was why her hopes were so high. Assuming she was just tired, she walked in her room. She glanced at the girl as her arms were still next to her sides. Looking at her bed longingly she took and extra pillow. Walking to her closet she pulled out a blanket. She placed both items in her bathroom. Tiptoeing to the dresser she picked up the candle. Going back to her bathroom, she opened the door. Robin placed the candle on the floor nesr the bathtub and placed her pillow on the side. She layed down pulling her blanket up and blew out the candle allowing herself to drift off to sleep

The heat from the bath stimulated his muscles. He no longer felt as stressed as he did before. He actually thought the procedure went well. Even if he spoke too soon it didn't matter. He wrapped himself in a towel and stepped out. The cool air in the room met his skin creating a wonderful feeling.
Leo sighed. This day was an eventful day. By the morning he'd a-

"Hr. Marci."

Leo jumped. Gripping his towel tightly. So tight it hugged his waist and everything accompanying it.
"Bloody hell." he groaned as his heart calmed itself.
"Damn it, Walter."
Walter Bosch. The man with the glaring blue eyes. His strong demeanor made him seem slightly stiff. He began shaking his head. "Oh Marci, its cute. Hummel's rubbing off on you." A sound of irritation came from him as he sighed.

"Get on with it."
"First we'll disgust the elephant in the room."
"If you mean a two grown man talking while one is only in a towel while the other has no shirt in sight, then sure. I've got all night."
"Oh stop toying with me Marci." Walter sighed and sat at the edge of Leo's bed. "Its called getting comfortable." he began. "Plus, I know what your thinking, but even if I was that way I could do way better than you." Leo rolled his eyes. If that were the case he'd be the best he could find. Realizing what the conversation went to he redirected the focus.

"We found her in the forest. Near the bottom of the ledge." he began to explain. "She has a wound near her head but we healed it." Walter nodded while listening. "You do realize-"
"That she is my responsibility, yes."
"She cannot hide in this area for long." he sighed. "Until their highness hear of her."
"We're woking on that." Leo mumbled pulling his cotton night shirt over his torso.
"Well I do love wasting time, do tell. " he could feel the sarcasm as it fell from his lips.  Leo sighed and explained his idea to the man before him as he ran a hair through his hair. "I will see what I can do." he stated as he began to leave. Leo let out a breathe as he pulled up his pants.
"Oh, and Marci."
"Yes, Bosch?"
"For violating curfew you have dish duty for a week. By yourself." the man left in the blink and roll of an eye. He pulled the sheet and got in his bed. He blew out his candle and shut his eyes.
