Jordan's P.O.V

I bit my lip. Lyra was really pretty, but she wasn't...human. Can she even love? I thought. I got on my phone and looked at Twitter.

COMMENTS:

OMG, Jordan can you subscribe to me on YouTube?

Jordan can you follow my account?

Can you do another live stream?

HI JORDAN

The last one was a bit creepy, but it's a fan... I started tweeting:

Hey, doods! Just got out of the hospital, nothing's broken. So Minecon is this Saturday in Florida, see you there if you go! And I'm bringing a surprise to show you all- be ready!

-Two days later-

"Lyra, we need to go!" I called upstairs.

"Where???" she whined back down. I laughed.

"It's a surprise!"

I walked upstairs and carried her down. We didn't have an elevator, so this was the best I could do.

When we got to the bottom, I gave her the crutches and we went to the elevator. I pushed the button and brought her in.

-at the airport-

"Why are we here?" Lyra moaned. I carried our bags and put them on the conveyor belt. Lyra followed me, still complaining.

I had my hood on so no one knew it was me, and Lyra and I walked to our plane. Lyra stared at all the people wearing Minecraft shirts and holding merchandise to get signed.

"Jordan," she asked, "are we going to Minecon?"

I smiled at her and nodded. I noticed her bite her lip to keep from screaming, and some man behind her pushed her onto the ground. "Move it, you lazy thing!" he yelled. I turned around and glared at him. The man just laughed. He wore a creeper t-shirt and green pants. "You going to protect your girlfriend now? Ha-ha-ha."

I took off my hood and smirked at him. "Don't expect to be getting an autograph from any of the Minecraft YouTubers at Minecon, got it?" I growled. The man stared in shock. I must've been his idol or something, because only if I was his idol would he be so upset with himself.

"J-Jordan Maron? I didn't know it was you, I am seriously sorry...I love your videos and I'm a bit impatient; sorry for pushing her..." the man stuttered.

I saw Lyra push herself up onto one crutch, then try reaching down to grab the other. I glanced back at the man before picking up her other crutch and handing it to her.

"Thanks," Lyra said. She looked at the man. "In case you're too blind to notice, I've been through quite enough and I don't really like being pushed. Especially when it's harder to get up than normal."

"My dearest apologies. I regret my decision of hurting you and hope you are okay," the man explained sincerely.

Lyra's hard, dark violet stare turned to a soft one. "It's okay. I'm sorry I just lost my temper like that. Also, I should have moved faster. It was my fault, don't be upset," she said. Then, with a glance at me, she added, "And you'll still get autographs from the YouTubers at Minecon. I'll make sure of it."

I just stared at her. The man pushed her to the ground and called her a lazy thing, then insulted me, and then tries to apologize. And now she's accepting the apology?!
