"I love you
Even if there isn't any me
Or any love
Or even any life
I love you."

Around the 800' A.D:

It's been six years, since that eventful night in the woods, since Melione saved Jane and Alec, and became friends with them.

"It's getting on my nerves Jane, he never hangs out with us anymore it's as if he's trying to ignore us, and if and focus on the if, he comes to see us, he is constantly nagging me or has something smart to say!" Huffed Melione in exasperation, Jane giggled at her best friend, the two of them sitting next to the pond.

"It's just a faze Lionne, everyone goes through it, if you went out of your house in the day for other reasons then school, maybe you would have noticed that." Said Jane in amusement, "You don't even socialize with anyone."

"It's not like I want to be friends with the rest of the kids from the village. I don't want people in my life that love me only for my social status. And what faze! Is being a pain in the ass considered a faze?!" She said throwing her hands up on the air.

Jane hummed in response, "You miss him."

"I don't!"

"Lionne do you seriously think that I never noticed how you always get nervous when you see him? Or how you smile like a complete idiot when I talk about him? Ohhh and let's not forget about that one time you came over to our house, your eyes were glued on him when he was chopping wood outside ." She paused for a moment and then continued, "you don't only miss him, you love him!"

"No Jane! I don't love him!" Deep down, she knew it was the truth, but she was too scared to say it out loud. She has been in love with him for a few years and the only person that knew about that was her.

"Yeah, I think you do." Replied the blonde, "You think what?" Asked a voice making the two girls jump in surprise. Alec was standing behind them with a curious look waiting for an answer. "Oh, well I think that Melione-" that sentence was cut off by the brown haired girl's hand that slammed on Jane's mouth not letting her continue.

"Well! Aha..." she stuttered "She thinks that I should start talking to more people! Right Jane?" Her friend rose an eyebrow in response only to lick Melione's hand , who snatched her hand away "Jane!"

Alec shook his at them, "You guys are impossible."

"Oh yeah?! And how would you know?! Last time I saw you was a week ago!"

"Only a week? It was so good it passed in a flash" he answered with a smirk.

"I loath you."

He winked at her, "The feeling is mutual." He answered as he looked up at Jane and continued "Sister, mother said she needs you. I don't qknow for what though." The young girl sighed before getting up and heading back to the village after giving Melione a hug. "Say hi to your mother for me!"

"Sure will!"

The two teens stood awkwardly next to each other before Melione scoffed and walked away, Alec couldn't help himself but follow her, and as he fell into steps right next to the girl that was trying so hard to ignore him, he couldn't help but wonder what was on this beautiful creature's mind. He never would admit it but he had just realized that he developed feelings to the overly moody girl over all the years he'd known her in, that was the reason he was avoiding her and his sister since the latter was the only person that would find about this just by looking at him.
