One Word Can Mean So Much (On Hold)

Chapter 11

Garroth pov:
Aphmau and I waved bye to Zoey and Levin as we walked down the path. We walked down to the docks and sat down. Aphmau and I took off our shoes and put our feet in the water. I grabbed Aphmau's hand and looked at her.
"Why are you so beautiful?"
She started blushing.
"You always make me blush."
"I know."
I smiled at her and she put her head down. I lifted her chin up and looked her in the eyes. I leaned closer when an arrow shot by. I looked behind me to see Zenix with a bow and arrow. I took my sword out, stood up and started running after Zenix. He started running into the woods so I followed him. I hear Aphmau scream my name but I kept on running. He ran into a cave so I entered the cave but he vanished. I kicked the rock in frustration. I walked back to the beach and Aphmau quickly ran up to me and gave me a huge hug.
"Your ok. I thought you were
hurt."
I pulled away from the hug and started walking back to the house. Aphmau runs after me and she try's to stop me but I kept on walking. I walked up the path to the house, walked in the door and closed it behind me. I hear the door open behind me, I look to see Aphmau.
"Why are you walking away from me?"
"I let you down..."
"You can never let me down."
She walks up to me and gives me a hug. I hug her back this time and hold her. We pulled away from the hug. I put my hand on her cheek and kiss her. I let go and looked into her hazel eyes.

Aphmau pov:
I looked into Garroth's ice blue eyes. I grabbed his hand and held it.
"Garroth can you do something for me?"
"I will do anything for you."
"Close your eyes and count to ten."
"Um... Ok."
I let go of Garroth's hand and ran down stairs to the basement then hid in the guest bedroom.

Garroth pov:
I counted to ten and opened my eyes. I looked upstairs in the bedroom, I looked under the bed, I checked the closet, and the cabinets down in the kitchen. I had one last place to look the, basement. I went down stairs and checked around. I opened the door and someone jumped on top of me. I opened my eyes to see Aphmau. She smiled at me and I smiled back. I pulled her closer and kissed her. She got off of me and laughed. I grabbed her hand and we ran upstairs. I sat down on the couch with Aphmau. I heard a knock on the door and got up to answer it. I opened the door to see no one there. I looked all around when I sew a note on the ground. I picked it up and it says,
"To Garroth."
Aphmau came up behind me.
"What is that?"
"Its a note. For me."
"Oh. Do you want some privacy to open it?"
"Ya, thanks."
She walked upstairs and I went and sat on the couch. I opened the letter.

"Dear Garroth,
I'm sorry that the last time I saw you I stormed off. I guess I was jealous that you found someone else. I hope you and Aphmau have an amazing life together. If you guys don't work out, always remember I love you.

Sincerely,
Azura"

I dropped the note and put my head down. Why does Azura still love me? I shook my head and went upstairs. I went into the bedroom. Aphmau was laying down reading a book. I got under the cover and sighed.
"What the note say?"
"It was from Azura, and apparently she still loves me."
Aphmau dropped her book and looked at me.
"Do you love her back?"
"I've already told you this, and the answer is no."
"Ok good."
Aphmau put her head on my shoulder and stayed there.

I woke up hearing a knock on the door. I got up and walked down stairs. I opened the door and felt someones arms rap around me.
