"Garroth, please, don't worry about that. I'm sure he was just being a silly Casanova." I giggled and continued, "Don't tell me you're jealous or something." I could tell that he was blushing under that helmet.

He stuttered and said, "W - W - What? N - N - No, never! Why would you even think that?" "Relax, I'm just teasing you!" I laughed and just looked at him. He also laughed a bit, but shyly.

*Time skip*


When we got back I was so exhausted. While Garroth escorted me back to my house I asked, "Garroth, why did you disobey my orders by coming after me?" I was a bit angry with him. He answered, "M - My sincerest apologies, m'lady. I thought that you might have been in trouble since you didn't return when you said you would. I had no intentions at all on disobeying you, I just..."

He sighed in shame. "I'm sorry, I should have known better. I am aware that you can look after yourself, but I just, I don't know..." "Garroth, stop. You don't have to explain yourself further. Even though I am a bit disappointed, I understand." "T - Thank you, m'lady. Again, my apologies. Now, I must be getting back to work. You get some rest. I'll come check up on you later." "Thank you Garroth. I appreciate it." I went inside my house.

*Time skip*


I slept for just a little while. About two hours later, I got up. I went downstairs and found something, or should I say someone. "Afternoon beautiful." I was so shocked and nearly jumped in utter fright. I said in confusion, "Laurance! What are you doing here? How did you get past Garroth? W - What?!"

"What? Am I not allowed to make something special for the woman of my dreams?" He walked towards me and put a smirk on his face. He winked at me and slowly tried his very best to kiss me. I rejected him, not because I didn't like him or anything, I just didn't know him that well just yet.

Slightly disappointed, he said, "I see. May I at least join you for this lovely lunch I made you?" "Sure, why not?" Before we sat down to eat, he turned out all the lights and lit some candles. I looked around and asked, "Laurance what are you..." "Shh my love..." He whispered and put his finger on my lips. "Not a word..." I couldn't help but just remain silent and stare into his gentle, gorgeous eyes.

He put his hands on the sides of my arms and leaned in closer and closer. Just before our lips touched, Garroth walked in and said, "Your majesty, you are requested to be at the... What's going on here? M'lady, what is he doing to you? You get away from her!"

Laurance looked at him and said sarcastically, "Wow Garroth. Great job ruining our little 'date'." I was shocked and asked, "Date?" Laurance winked at me. Garroth asked, "D - Date? So, nothing is really going on between you two?" "No, Garroth!" I yelled to make it clear.

He apologized and left. I faced Laurance and asked, "Could you please just go? I need to speak with Garroth about this. Don't get me wrong though, I did enjoy this little 'date' you set up. It was very nice of you to do that." I gave him a little wink.

He answered, "Of course, my love. I'll give you some time to yourself and Garroth so you two can talk this out. I will see you later." He gave me a quick kiss on the cheek and left. For a moment I froze up, then I immediately went after Garroth, once again.

I knew exactly where he would be hiding. At the guard station. Before I headed in, I noticed something was sticking out of my pocket. A rose? It must have been from Laurance.

It had a note attached to it. It said, "Meet me on the beach tonight. Hopefully nobody will find us there." I just stood there for a moment feeling like my heart was just melting and pounding so fast. I calmed down, pulled myself together and went inside to talk to Garroth.

"G - Garroth?" "M - M'lady? How did you know I was here?" "It's kind of obvious, since you came to hide out here the last time something upset you." "Heh, r - right." I asked, "Garroth, what happened? What's going on with you? You have been acting strange ever since we left Meteli. Garroth, please tell me what's wrong. You know you can trust me, right?"

Did y'all enjoy it, I hope so... What's gonna happen next time? Will Garroth tell her what's wrong or will he stay quiet?

You know the drill, next part in 2 days!

Later fam!😉
