The Seven Deadly Witchers (HoO/Witcher fanfic)

Chapter 2

(Leo's POV)

"For the life of me, Bianca, I still don't get why you're calling yourself Quen," I said trying to avoid a lecture.

"Stop trying to change the subject, Sloth. This is what, the thousandth tavern you'd burned down?" Questioned Quen.

"I have no clue. Honestly I lost count after a hundred." I mumbled the last part.

"I heard that." Quen says. "Honestly Sloth you've got to keep that temper of yours under control. It's really tiring always pulling your ass out of trouble." She continues shaking her head disapprovingly.

"I never asked you for help Bianca. I didn't need it in the past, I don't need it now, and I won't need it ever. So stop bugging me." I said back a little pissed. I seriously didn't need her lecturing me right now.

"You know what, Leo. I don't give a damn if you need my help or not. Because I'm always going to be here to give it. So how about you get your head out your own ass, and start being greatful for once." Bianca shot back hotly before storming off.

I've really done it this time. What is wrong with me. Bianca has always been there for me, and here I am being a jerk, I thought to myself.

"I'm going to make things right." I said before heading after her.

"Quen! Quen, wait up I want to talk." I call out getting her attention.

"What do you want, Sloth?" She asked still mad at me.

"Look Quen . . . no Bianca." I said letting her know right away how serious and sorry I am. "I'm really sorry for how I've been acting lately. Especially to you. You've always been there watching my back, and being a true friend. While all I've done is be a horrible person. And if you come on this hunting trip with me, I'll make it up to you." I tell her truthfully.

(Bianca's POV)

Hearing Leo apologize to me like wasn't something I expected. Not mention I never thought he would mean it either, since he's been saying sorry to me for quite some time now. But looking in his eyes I could tell he meant it, I thought to myself.

"Bianca, are you okay?" I hear Leo ask. Bringing me out of my thoughts.

Truthfully, I've already forgiven him, but there was no way I was letting him know that, I continue thinking to myself.

"How about this. I'll go with you on this hunt, because we're a team and I love a good hunt. But I'm not sure I'm ready to forgive you just yet. We'll see what happens." I tell him.

"That works for me. Who knows maybe I'll win you over with my charms." He says with that trademark smile I've grown to love.

In all honestly, I've come to care about Leo as more than a friend. His crazy smile, the way he try's to make everyone around him laugh, his long wild curl hair, with most of it tied back. Has grown on me. Of course he would never feel the same way, because he's still torn up about Calypso, I thought sadly.

"Well I'm going to get the horses and our gear. Meet me at the gate in 15 minutes." Leo says bringing me out of my thoughts again.

"Yeah, I'll meet you there." I tell him, before he walks off. Leaving me longing for something I can never have.

(Leo's POV)

That worked out better than I thought, I thought to myself.

Still I'm glad she's coming with me. We are a team. Bianca and I. It never ceases to amaze me, of extremely beautiful she is, I continue thinking to myself with a smile.
