" You are getting married! ", I exclaim, quite taken aback. It's just been two days since I regained my consciousness and presently, Freya and Mariana are helping me settle back in my dorm. Sitting on the wheelchair, I am listening to the stories the girls are telling me - about my unconsciousness and the things that happened during that period.
" Yup! ", says Mariana.
" Who are you getting married to? ", I ask.
" Storm ", she replies.
" Well that was no shock, 'cause Cassie and I know that he has a thing for you ", Freya says and winks at Mariana.
I met Storm nearly 9 years ago when I first joined Dragon-heart. With spiky, sandy blonde hair and blue eyes, he was known around the guild to be the most dim-witted guy anyone had known or seen. I have always looked up to him and think of him as my elder brother. He wields lightning magic and you're not supposed to mess with him when he is angry.
" So, who asked first? ", I ask.
Mariana, using her psychic powers, brings comb near her, starts combing her auburn hair and says," He asked me first. I forever had a crush on him. So when he asked me out, I was really happy. And after four years being his girlfriend, he finally proposed me. "
" To be frank, it is hard to take in but I am happy for you guys ", I say.
" Who would have thought that a dense guy and a outgoing girl would end up getting married? ", says Freya, grinning.
Mariana blushes and buries her face into Freya's shoulder.
" So when is the wedding? ", I ask.
" In three weeks ", Mariana says.
" Three weeks! ", I exclaim. Honestly, I am scared. I just woke up from the coma and in three weeks, one of my best friends is getting married.
" Well, if you want, we can postpone it ", says Mariana.
I glare at her and say," NO! You are not going to do that. However, I will start walking by the end of the fortnight ".
" Okay, okay ", she says with a grin.
I look around my room. I can't believe I haven't been here for five and half years, everything just feels like I was here all along.
" Freya, can I ask you something? ", I say, with a worried look on my face.
" Fire it ", she replies.
" During the last stages of my sleep, I dreamed about you and Axel talking ", I start as she keeps looking at me intently. " I heard you say that I would need him more than anyone else. What did you mean by that? ", I ask.
Freya looks at Mariana. She takes her time answering me, as if she is picking her words very carefully.
" It was not a dream. You see, girl, when you were in coma, I feared that you would lose your touch of magic. And as Axel is the only one who can help you, I told him that you need him more than anyone of us ".
" How? "
" You see, Axel is actually your partner. He is also your best friend along with me and Mari. Both of you became S-class mages together when you teamed up with him for the exams. He is the only one who can help you remember your spells because you created them under his supervision. "
" Wait! I am an S-class? ", I ask, shocked but pleased at the same time.
" Yeah. You don't remember it because it is one of your memories with Axel ", Mariana says.
