Cecil's POV

I closed the gigantic doors softly and headed towards towards to lounging room. I can't believe I am here again. My insides bubbled with a bit of excitement. 

I smelled the air. It smelled just like him. I smiled and pushed the doors open. There with his back turned to me was none other than Hawkeye, sitting in his spooky armchair.

Seeing him again, made me lose focus on what I was going to say. I just wanted to run to him and jump on him with a big hug. But of course I know he doesn't work like that. I have to be formal with everything I do when I'm around him. After all he's a man of standards and great mannerism.

OK... What was I to say again. ((Hello Hawkeye. Its Cecil. I have returned with apologies and gratitude. I was on a pirate ship , when I learned about your rescue. Please accept my appreciation for saving me. I am forever in your debt. Please do not misunderstand my fled to be an attempt to get away from you. My ongoing nightmares drove me to madness and I ran without thinking. Thanks for everything you have done for me. I have now taken refuge on a ship you entrusted me to. Thank you for that as well. I was happy meeting you... Thanks for everything. Goodbye))) yeah! And that's how you work magic!

As I walked towards him with these words strong in my mind, my heart beat harder with every step I took, as I got closer and closer.

"So...you have returned" I screamed frighteningly at his sudden speech.

I stomped my foot hard in anger. "Damn! Couldn't you allow me to make my dramatic entrance!" I bellowed.

"But I already knew that you were here" he said as he spun around facing me.

"But you could have kept quiet and yes I have returned... But not for long. I just came to say my goodbyes and then I'm gone!" I blurted.

"You came back just to tell me bye?" He asked.

"Yes!" I replied sternly. So much for practicing what I was supposed to say.

"Oh" he said. He's rather calm. How unusual.

"Are you sick or something?" I asked disbelievingly.

"Are you here to inquire about my health or to say bye?" He asked.

"You see! That's the sucker attitude of yours that gets me mad. I'm here genuinely concerned about you and you're being rude" I accused him.

He chuckled and looked at me. Then he started laughing. Huh? What's so funny? "You have a great sense of humor."

"Yeah...I've been told a lot lately." I replied. "Hey by the way... Where are your hoomans? ....you know the ninja monkeys?"

"They're recovering from their lost. " he responded.

"Lost? What lost?" I asked confusingly.

"The pirates who came here, had killed one of their leaders" he replied. I suddenly remembered a monkey being thrown at the castle walls, causing blood to splatter.

"Oh" I said feeling sad and sorry for the monkeys. "Poor things."

The phone began to ring. 'Puddu puddu puddu..... Puddu puddu puddu'

"Hmph.... If you'll please excuse me " he said to me and I exited the room.

I placed my ear against the door to eavesdropped, but failed miserably. Each room was sound proof. But still, how rude of me. I'm here to say bye, but here I am ....still prying into the man's private life.

I stepped away from the door. I guess my body moves automatically when it comes to knowing about him.

What's wrong with me?
