Garmau - My Savior

Chapter 7 - On The Run

Aphmau's POV

I woke up, surprised to see that I was laying on my bed in the Inn room with Garroth next to me. Did he..save me? "G-Garroth are we safe" I asked. "Not yet My Lady. We need to leave immediately. Go get ready please.." He quickly walked over to the window. "I'll keep watch for anything weird and don't worry I won't peak." He stared out the window.

I quickly got up and looked through my things. I put on my other pair of black shorts and my purple galaxy shirt and a belt. "I'm ready". Garroth turned around and looked at me. "You look like your wearing the same thing from before." He gave me a weird look. "I have two outfits that look the same" I said kinda softly. "Oh ok..Well we need to go." Garroth quickly gathered my things and opened the door to our room. "Come on." He walked out the door and I followed him. He quickly left the Inn with me following behind him. He loaded up the horses and got on his. I got on Butter Cream.

"Follow me" Garroth started to ride his horse to the outside of the town and I followed on mine.

Garroth's POV

It's been a while since we left the town. We are still on the road but soon we will have to go off road to the lands were we will be undetected. I've slowed down and me and Aphmau have calmed down. We've been on our horses riding along the path for a long time so I don't think anyone is following us.

I watch as I see Aphmau's beautiful hair sway in the wind with her delecit flower crown full of life on top of her head.
She's been so calm through this whole journey and she's been through so much. Her peace, calmness, loving nature for anyone good or evil, She make's me just want to hug her. No! I can't fall in love with her, this is simply business! Besides..it would never work out.. I'm already engaged. When that thought crossed my mind it sent a shiver down my spine.

"Engaged"

So horrible.. I was deep in thought when I heard what sounded like a horse scream. It was Aphmau's horse. It was hit with an arrow!
