White Fire (Geralt of Rivia x OC)

Chapter 19

I take slow steps down the path, swaying side to side.

My left hand over the wound on my right shoulder.

I let it fall though, I can possibly stop this bleeding.

I look down at Alpine and say, "Go... Go find the group, and drag them back here."

Seemingly understanding my words, she dashes off.

Blood drips down my arm and onto the white blanket below, marking where i've been.

I'm not even half way back to the town, no where close to half way.

I feel much to tired to keep walking, but force myself anyways.

Why didn't I bring any Swallow with me? I don't even know how to meditate and heal yet... How pathetic of me.

Erom was right as well, I trust him much to easily.

I force myself to keep moving.

Time seems to slow its self around me, and I cant exactly tell how long I've been walking now.

Have I even moved? Everything looks the same.

The first voice I hear ring through the silence is Jonbas. Then Geralts, so on and so forth.

I feel my knees hit the ground as I try to call out for them. The trees blur together, and blurred figures stand before me.

Reaching out a blood stained hand to them, O try to speak, to ask for help, but they just stand there.

I give up on trying to move and lay face first in the snow.

As I let the fatigue take over, I can feel someone turning me over and pouring something into my mouth.

And then theres nothing.

***

My eyes open to a bright light, that just turns out to be the overly bright sun, shining in through a window.

I bring my hand up to my shoulder. It's partially healed, so that leaves me to suppose someone gave me a Swallow potion.

I use my left arm to prop my self up as someone walks through the door.

Jonba drops whatever she is holding and yells, "Kina! You're awake!"

Her yelling feels like needles piercing my head.

Geralt comes in and ushers her out, and telling her to be quiet.

"What were you doing with a rogue," he questions.

I reply, "In my defense I had no idea he was a rogue."

He sits on the edge of the bed and says, "Thank the heavens you are alright."

Yeah... Thank the heavens.

He gets up to leave, but I grab his sleeve and say, "Could you keep me company awhile longer? I quite enjoy it."

I notice him smile slightly and sit back down on the bed.

He says, "If you insist, I will."

I lay back and pat the bad beside me, just like he did the night I spent in his room.

He lays back and we talk, well I let him talk about his stories and adventures.

Ohhh jesus, ohhh boy.

Its the begeining of a wonderfully angsty fluffy love story.

Kina, you are on your way to "what did i do to deserve this"

This makes 3 out of 3, yes?

Have a good day or night.

I love you allllll
