Theadora povI awoke the next day, that night I had little to no sleep nightmares plague my mind. I wanted ivar to hold me all through the night but I did not go to him. I got dressed and headed out today there was no breakfast because bjorn and Hvitserk were sailing off to fine the new land Bjorn found on an old map he got from Paris. I watched from afar as they sailed away. I looked for Ivar but could not find him. I went to the market area and got some food to refill the Kitchen, we were almost out. As I was walking I saw a long line if men young and old. I walked to the head of the line and saw ubba and Sigurd yelling at Ragnar who was giving away gold. He picked up the box of gold and put it in front of a man who picked it up and walked away. He went back to a table and threw gold into the line of man saying "take it, take it". (Since I have been here I have noticed how sickly Ragnar looks, I hope he is ok) I finished shopping and head to the great hall. I saw Ivar sitting on one of the throwns. I smiled and walked up to him. "Ivar I have been looking for you" I told him. He looked at me his eyes held saddness. "What's wrong" I asked. "Im going to England with my father" he said no longer looking at me. My smile dropped. "What" I whispered? "Im going to sail to England with my father" he told me again. "Oh, well have a safe journey" I whispered and ran away quickly before he could say anything. I went to the training ground and started to hack at a tree with a sword. I was so frustrated at myself, at ivar at everything. What will happen to ivar when he leaves for England, there are many beautiful women there much more beautiful than i. What if he gets killed, just what if. I did not hear the person walk up to me till I felt a hand on my shoulder. I jumped and pointed my sword at the man. I saw Sigurd with his hands in the air a smirk on his face. His eyes though held concern. I sighed and put my sword down "yes master Sigurd" I asked him? "Please just Sigurd when it is only me around" he said and it his hands down to his side. I raised my eye brows at him confused. "Um alright Sigurd what can I help you with" I question? "I just came to see how you are doing after last night and with ivar" he said to me shrugging his shoulders. "Im fine" I said looking down. "Oh really now, from that poor tree you killed i think you are lying" he laughed out and came closer to me, I backed up my back hitting the tree. Sigurd stood in front of me now. He brought his hand to my cheek I closed my eyes waiting for a strike but I felt none but instead I felt a hand cup my face and a thumb brush over my bruised cheek. I opened my eyes and looked up into Sigurds eyes he was taller than me anyway. "You are so beautiful" he whispered to me his thumb then ran over my split lip. I did not say a thing but just watched him. (What am I doing I should be pushing him away he was the one who hit me just yesterday) I gulped and look away. He turned my head to look at him. "Do not look away" he whispered to me eyes locked on my lips. "Wha" I was cut off with a shush by Sigurd. "Just let me do this, I will not keep losing to my cripple of a brother, I will not alow him this time to take what I want" he growled out and leaned down to kiss me. I pushed him away before our lips could touch. Sigurd looked shocked and angry. I ran as fast asbi could I did not know where I was headed but I did not care today has been to much. (He tried to kiss me, HE TRIED TO KISS ME) my mind screamed as I ran as fast as I could. I fell to the ground my a pond I reached under my dress where I had tied my fathers dagger to my thigh. I pulled it out and stared at the dagger analysing the blue gemstones and patterns on the case I pulled the dagger our and ran a finger over the blade. Memories of my past with my family coming to surface. I miss them so much, when they were taken from me I cried each night wishing to have them back. (Why.... why me) I looked up to the cloudy dark sky. "Why.... what did I ever do to have a life like this, what ever I did im sorry all father, I'm so lost please someone anyone help me" I cried and covered my face with my hands my fathers dagger still in hand. I heard a whinny not far from me, I looked up and saw a beautiful horse.
It had a White main and tail with 4 white socks in his hooves the rest of him was different shades of grey and some white spots. He was beautiful. His refection on the water added to his beauty. I slowly stood up and walked up to him he backed up once I got closer to him I stopped. And sat on one of the many large rocks. I had to get him to trust me I picked up and stick and started to doodle on the ground. I stopped when I felt a gush of warm breath blow my hair and little bit. I turned around slowly and saw the beautiful horse behind me staring at me with curious eyes. He sniffed my hair then my face then neck I laughed because it tickled. I looked at the horse and smiled I slowly brought my hand up to touch him, the flinched but did not move I slowly put my hand to his head feeling his soft fur. I smiled as I felt a bond grow between us.
