We had been travelling for at least a week now and we still haven’t found another warrior. We had arrived at another village and Duke had left us now. He was going back to his home in the mountains.

It was evening and I was in my tent. We all had separate tents because Will believed that there should always be some place that was our own that we could go to. I was about to start writing in my diary when the door to my tent unzipped. I looked up and saw Paul scrambling in and quickly zipping it back up. He was panting hard, like he’d just run a marathon.

“Paul?” I asked. “What are you doing here? Why are you panting so hard?”

“Sorry Suze,” he said. “I’m running away from Natalie. She’s been chasing me everywhere and I really don’t like being followed everywhere I go.”

I started laughing. “You’re running from Natalie.”

He smiled at me.

“Well, I understand why you would want to run away from her,” I said. “But I also understand why she’s following you.”

He looked at me, confused.

“Isn’t it obvious?” I asked. “She likes you.”

“Really?” he said. “I guess I didn’t notice. I was too busy focussing on someone else,” he explained.

He’s talking about me, I thought with shock. Before I could say anything to him, he was at my side. He held my head in his hands and kissed me hard on the lips. I was completely shocked and I didn’t know how to react. I tried pushing him away but he was strong and he held me in place. When he finally let go, we were both breathing hard.

“I know that you don’t know what to do,” Paul said. “I just wanted to say that I love you. I’ve always loved you, even before I met you. When my parents told me of the story of the Priestess, it was all I could think of. I imagined what she would be like and I loved her,” he explained. He lifted his hand and stroked my cheek softly. “You are even more amazing than I imagined you. I just needed to tell you that I loved you.”

He stood up and left my tent.

I sat there in complete confusion and shock. Paul Bexley. The most well-known player in Kai, loved me?!

I didn’t love Paul. I think I disliked him even more than before. He’s a complete player and I don’t like boys like that. I hate players. Now the reason I hated him was because he stole my first kiss from me.

I loved someone else. I think its love but I’m not sure. I think I love Elliot. He probably doesn’t feel the same way though.

I groaned and lay down on my pillow in confusion. What am I going to do?

So, what do you think?

Elliot or Paul?
