Best Of The Fifth

Chapter 24 - Day Zero

[Y/N's] POV -

I watched the two devour the plate of food.

'How does it always surprise me how fast you can eat that?' I said.

Emily looked up at me, with a steak in her mouth and giggled.

I laughed with her too, as [P/N] started walking over to me.

'Hey Buddy, how you feeling about the holiday?' I said as [P/N] approached me.

There was something behind it's back....hidden away.

'You know I can see your hiding something.' I said, reaching down.

Quickly, I picked [P/N] up under the arms and lifted my arms up.

I placed [P/N] down onto my lap.

'So, What is it?' I said, looking down.

[P/N] pulled a face, and put the item In front of me.

It was a little piece of steak.

'Aww, thanks.' I said, picking [P/N] up again to give them a huge hug, eating the small piece of steak.

[P/N] started to purr again.

I looked over at Emily who was sat on her chair with her arms crossed and was making a pouty face.

'There's still room.' I said jokingly.

What I didn't expect was for Em to jump up and pretty much throw herself onto us.

I extended my other arm to stop Emily from falling behind us, even though that'd be quite funny.

I pulled her into my neck and let her snuggle into my shoulder.

This was the best moment I've ever experienced In the New World.

We all sat together for about 5 more minutes.

'[Y/N]?' Emily said looking up from my shoulder.

'Yeah?'

'Can we go out somewhere while your on holiday now?'

'Umm, where do you have in mind?'

'I kinda hoped you'd know.'

'I...honestly don't know where would be good enough.'

'What do you mean good enough? It's not like they'll change if we don't go.' Emily said giggling.

'Hey, I'm taking someone special out...the area needs to be as good.' I said, winking at her.

'Wow....that was really soppy.' She said, still giggling.

'I try....'

Hmmm. Where could we go? I mean...there's not many places that are free of monsters.

'I guess the Ancient Forest is probably the best looking area....I guess we could go there.' I said.

'Yeah, I was thinking that too. If we start at the Ancient Tree Camp at the tippy-top of the tree, we should avoid everything.' Emily said.
