Weapon Or Game (Book 2) The FFI

Chapter 7

Jane's POV . . .

             Once we reached the Fire Dragon's camp, I bandaged all of Gazel's wounds, and checked his fever. Surprisingly, it was low, and a felt my hreat ease at last. I looked at Leo, and gave him a weak smile.
" Thank you, he should be back to normal by tomorrow", I said, while staring at Gazel's sleeping face, and brushed my fingers through his silver hair.
" It was least I could do. After all, I can't have my younger cousin walking through the streets, and abusing people", Leo replied, and patted my shoulder.
" We should probably leave him to rest", I suggested, while standing up, and walking to the door. Leo followed, and we walked through the hallways with an awkward silence floating in the atmosphere.
" So are you interested in soccer?", I asked irritatedly. Leo smiled innocently, and replied, " Yeah, my mother Ms.Grey said that a girl from Fire Dragons was going to meet me today at the soccer field, but instead, I had to help you".
" That's funny, Ms.Gery told me to meet someone in the field", I teased, , and punched his shoulder playfully.
" Oi! Jane! Who's your new friend?!", me, and Leo turned around to the voice, and saw Torch standing behind us, with a toothy smile on his face.
" Ow! Leo this is Torch! Torch this is Leo!", I introduced them both to each other, wishing Torch will not do anything fishy.
" I will take it from here Jane, you should go and watch your boyfriend", he teased, as he patted my shoulder, and gave me the thumbs up.
" Is it okay with you Leo?", I asked looking at my new friend, with a smile. He nodded his head, and Torch started giving me small pushs to Gazel's room.
I had no idea what my red-head friend was up to, but I did not let that idea annoy me that much.

Third person POV . . .

          Once Jane was out of Torch's sight, he turned to Leo, and eyed him suspiciously.
"So~ your familiar with soccer eh?", he asked misciviously, and smirked eagerly. Leo blinked a few times at his words, and allowed a soft smile to appear on his face.
" Yeah, I mostly play goalkeeper. Up for a game?", Torch seemed impressed by the boy's response, and replied," You bet I am!".

          The two boys headed to the soccer field, with Torch being as agnorant as ever. Leo did not mind the red-head's idiotic habit, and was able to get along with him pretty well.
" Get ready!", Torch warned, kicking the ball in the air, before jumping after it, and kicking it towards him. Leo watch in shock as his friend performed his Hissatsu move. The ball was surrounded by blazing, red flames as it came closer to Leo with every minute. Surely he was nervous, but he was determined to stop this shot, his hand formed fists, and a dark aura surrounded him. His eyes changed from pure blue, to a purple red colour.
" Living Hell!", he shouted, placing his hand in front the ball, and barely stopped it. Torch froze in his spot, and was shocked at the sudden change in Leo. The teen, blond boy took deep breaths as he held the soccer ball in his hand, there was even a small line of smoke floating in the air!
" That was incredible!", Torch cheered, running over to the blonde, and patting his back.
" You have a strong kick Torch", Leo complemented, while gasping for air.
" Well well well, looks like we have a guest", Byron's voice was too easy for Torch to remember, and he moaned in annoyance. The two boys turned to the long-haired boy. Leo was confused, since he never met Byron. As for Torch, he saw looking at his teammate carelessly.
" What with the look Torch? Is it because you wanted me to get you a caramel chocolate?", Byron asked, raising a plastic bag filled with bars of sweet treats. Torch's eyes twinkled, and he ran over to the boy with an eager smile. Leo was still confused by the red-headed's actions, and sighed.
' Is he really a fan of sweets? ', he wondered, as he watched his friend take the bag from Byron, and devour a bar of chocolate, causing small crums to cover his mouth as he sat under a sakura tree.
" So your a friend of Torch?", the teen boy turned his attention to Byron, and looked at him with confusion.
" I guess you could say that. By the way my name is Leo Grey", Leo replied,  walking to the other blond-haired boy, and they shook hands.
" My name is Byron Love, hope we get along", Byron introduced himself, and gave him a bright smile.

           Jane placed her head on the edge of Gazel's bed, and fell asleep peacefully. It has been about two hours since she left Leo, and Torch, but Gazel still has not woke up, and she was getting really worried, including the fact that she was really exhausted. Gazel's fever was nearly gone, and he slowly opening his eyes. He sat up, and looked at the teen girl, who moaned in her sleep. The he slipped out of the soft bed,  keeled down next to his lover, and traced his fingers across the small scratches on Jane's cheek.
" I am such an idiot", he mumbled , while carrying the girl bridle style, and placed he on his bed, before cuddling next to her.
" Gazel", she mumbled in her sleep, and buried her face into his chest. Gazel was stunned for a minute, before he came out of the hospital a week ago, the doctor told him to be careful about the wound in his chest, since it was deep, and had stitches. He did not tell anyone except Ms.Lina, and until now, he felt guilty about keeping it a secret from Jane. A sigh escaped his lips, as doubts filled his mind.
" Forgive me, I keep making mistakes", he whispered to the teen girl, even though he knew she could not hear him. Minute after minute passed , and the silver-haired male was unable to go back to sleep. It was already dark outside, and only the sound of crickets was heard.
" Gazel?", the teen boy quickly turned his attention to Jane with wide eyes, but the girl did not even flinch, and placed her hand on his forehead.
" Your fever is gone, that's a relief", she said sleeply, with a hint of joy in her voice. Gazel did not move, and stared at her brown eyes.

" Idiot", she mumbled, as her face inched closer to him, until their lips connected. The silver-haired boy slowly wrapped his hands around her waist, as he felt that he was loosing himself to the kiss. After a short time, they broke the kiss, and smiled at each other.
" When are you going to stop getting me worried?", Jane asked, as she tapped Gazel's nose.
" If that keep you for myself, then never", he replied, with a tired smile.
" Good-night Gazel", she said, before slipping out of his bed, and leaving his room.
" Good-night Sleeping Beauty", the teen boy said, as he watched her leave, and finally fell asleep.
