Another Reason to Live (Aphmau fanfic, AaronXReader)

Chapter 6 - Back to Phoenix Drop

Aaron's POV~

There's something strange about this girl before me... She's kind, caring and quite tough but... Something is off... I sense something powerful from her... but I'm going to brush it off for now and wait to see what happens...

We walked along the river on the edge of the dark forest I held my blade as we looked around for any guards from O'kasis, I mostly wonder where she came from but how would I go about asking someone I just met about there past? Wait... She doesn't even really remember except for when she was in Phoenix Drop...

"How much longer do you think until we get there?" Y\N asked.

"Not to far maybe about three more hours of walking but we can break in between if you're tired." I replied.

"I'm not tired but if you are then we can.. I mean you did stay up ALL night long... It isn't healthy for you to go sleepless... You'll get sick..."

"I-I know... It's just I want to get there today.. you deserve to be with the people you love..."

"Don't you have people you love?"

"...C-Can we just get off this topic..?'

"I'm sorry if I hurt y-"

"SHUT UP!"

"..."

Y/N POV~

I-I didn't mean to push it... I-I'm sorry...

~Three long hours of silence later...~

We arrived to the gates of Phoenix Drop, Dante was standing on the gate peering down at us.

"Y-Y/N?..." He said softly.

"I'm back Dante..." I smiled bright.

"Garroth is headed to O'kasis alone right now you need to save him! He's going to get hurt or worse!" Dante panicked.

"W-What..."
