Aphmau's P.O.V.

I hear knocking on my door as I'm in bed reading. I woke up a few minutes ago but I can't bring myself to get out of bed.

"Come in" I say

The door opens and Aaron walks in holding a silver tray

"What's this?" I ask him

"Well I thought after the rough week you've had here you deserve something nice" He says "So I made you breakfast"

"You made this?" I ask shocked

"Well don't sound to surprised" he says playfully

"I didn't mean it in a bad way, it looks really good" I complement

He puts down the try and I see some fruit, a black tea, cross onto, orange juice and crumbled up cookies.

"It smells really good" I smile

"Well go on, eat some" he replies

I bite into one of the croissants and it tastes delicious.

"Wow this is really good" I smile

"Thank you" he relies

Just then we hear someone yelling out Aaron's name. Aaron tells me that he has a meeting that he forgot about and he walks out of my room. I finish my breakfast and I go to my closet. I get dressed in some warm clothes as I'm going outside today.

I brush my hair and grab my plates

I brush my hair and grab my plates. On my way outside I place all my dirty sides in the 'to wash' pile. I head outside into the chilly morning air. I can't help but feel I'm being watched. If anything happens I have my knives so I'll be ok.

I make my way to the secret room. I knock on t door but it doesn't open. I'm finding out who this room belongs to so I just walk in. The door was unlocked. I hear the shuffling of footsteps but nobody is there.

I grip my knives and I turn around. I make sure no one is in sight and I can't see anything.

"I know someone is here, show yourself" I say

An empty potion bottle shatters on the ground

"I'm not scared of a potion bottle, show yourself" I say

I bump into something behind me and I scream. I turn around to see a guy with blond hair and blue eyes.

"Who are you?!" I yell

"Ahhh I'm sorry" he says "I didn't mean to scare you"

"Yes you didn't, now who are you?" I reply calming down a little

"My name is Cloud, I'm a sorcerer" he says

"Where you the one who dumped wine on Garte's head?" I ask

"Yes, he was insulting you" He says

"But what does that have to do with you?" I ask

"I just don't want anyone to be offended by him" Cloud replies "He has offended so many people and he is rude to everyone that he deserves so much more than to just have wine dumped on his head"

"What is this place?" I ask

"Well this is my potion lab, it used to be a hollow tree but I came to this world from a different one and this tree because a portal" he explains "But now it's a closed portal so I can't return home. I'm stuck in your world."

"That's really cool, but kind of sad" I say

"It's alright, I like your world" he says "Want me to show you around, I know your seen most things as I watched you and the Aaron guy come here yesterday"

When he says Aaron's name I see a flash of anger pass his face but I ignore it. I follow him as he begins to show me around. The potion lab is much bigger on the inside because of magic obviously but it's still really cool.

He shows me how to make a invisibility potion. He says that he made up the potion himself.

Cloud's P.O.V.

I can't believe after all of these years of watching Aphmau from the sidelines I actually get the chance to meet her, she is and nice and sweet as I though she would be. I'm showing her my invisibility potion in hopes of her thinking I'm interesting.

In my world I had a crystal ball that shows the person who we will fall in love with. When I was seven or eight it showed a picture of a young girl with tanned skin and black hair. That girl was Aphmau.

She is the reason I came to this world. I wanted to meet her. It took some sacrifice but eventually I convinced my mother to allow me to come. My mother never believed in love after my father left her when she was pregnant but she wanted to see me happy so she allowed me to come.

I am taken from my trance when Aphmau starts snapping her fingers in my face

"Cloud are you ok? You looked like you where in another world" she says laughing a little at he r own joke

"Yeah I'm fine, so what do you think?" I ask referring to the potion

"It's really cool, but when you are in bright light you have a fuzzy outline, it's hard to see but it's there" I say

"Really? I'll get onto fixing that, thank you for telling me" I say hugging her

She freezes and I realise what I'm doing.

"I'm sorry" I say "I just haven't hugged anyone in years and I guess I got ahead of myself" I say worriedly

I feel her arms wrap around me and I return her hug.

"It's alright, I hug everybody so it's no big deal" she says

She pulls away and tells me that she needs to go have lunch with everyone. I say that I'm going but I'm going to be invisible. She laughs and we head off. I watch her walk. Her purple and white coat lowing behind her. I turn in invisible and I run after her. She yells when I suddenly speak but we walk the whole way to the castle.
