(To all you Arturia X Shirou haters out there... DEAL WITH IT)
I had no idea how long I slept, but when I awoke.. I found myself with my head leaning on the sleeping Shirou's chest, lying in the back seat of the car..
And glowering down at me from the window was Zoe Nightshade.
I abruptly sat up, feeling red in the face. "What are you doing!?"
"Thou art the daughter of Artemis.. and you are in the presence of a boy.. pining on him as if.. expressing love.. falling in love.. have thee ANY idea what this means!?"
"She isn't my mother.. she never was my mother!" I said crossly. "As far as I am concerned.. ZOE.. a mother isn't somebody hides her relation to me out of FEAR for her reputation."
Zoe looked scandalized by my words, and sputtered. "Y.. you would denounce her!? Why are you here!?"
"I am here for Annabeth.. " I growled. "And the order of the world.. and do not saddle me with this 'boy' nonsense.. if you knew Shirou Emiya like I knew him, you would know him as one of the most honorable people you could ever meet!"
Zoe shook her head. "I am trying to protect you Arturia.. he WILL betray you.. all men betray.. you must join the Hunters.."
"I'm not going to be your Second lieutenant! I never will!" I growled. "You want to hear the truth!? Yes! I love Shirou.. I am in LOVE with him.. he once took a near fatal blow that was meant for me! He would die for me.. and I him!"
"You will grow to regret those feelings." Zoe whispered. "I admit.. he possesses some honor.. however.."
Zoe sighed and shook her head. "I will not press this matter for now.. it has been a long day.. continue to rest.."
Zoe scowled once more at Shirou, but it was a tentative scowl..as if she was truly unable to really ascertain what to think of him.
She then paced off, leaving me alone with Shirou.
I was so angry at Zoe, I felt like I needed to take a walk..
After making sure Shirou was still fast asleep I stepped out of the car and began pacing between the different vehicles.
I had all my memories now.. I remembered when me and Shirou fought the Berserker of the Fuyuki Grail Wars.. a great muscle bound beast who followed the orders of Illya Einzbern.. I remembered all the times Shirou made advances on me.. and all the times I attempted to reject him because I felt I didn't deserve love..
And then.. I remembered all the beautiful moments Shirou had proved how honorable a person he was.. how he was even more chivalrous, and more righteous than even the most honored knight.. and how his ideals had given me such courage when I lacked faith in my own ideals.
Shirou had been the one who vanquished the doubts I once had, and made me accept myself as a girl, and a human being.
How dare Zoe even SUGGEST he would ever betray me..
