Beth doesn't talk while she zips through the air.when we arrive at the rooms she hands us our room keys made of crystal and zips away.only to returns a minute later with a dragon about half of her size. they fly over to the fireplace and the small dragon opens it's mouth a small ball of bright fire builds between it's jaws. it get's to big and the dragon sneezes sending the fire into the hearth. "good boy howl" I barely hear it but it's there. "Beth?is that your name?" i ask smiling softly as if not to scar her away. she goes pale then nods curtly. "would you like me not to talk to you?" she nods again "OK" I say and pick up one of the books I was examining.Kit has already fallen asleep in her room and I'm bored. "I feel something nudge my foot" the small dragon sits atop my shoe with it's tongue out if a dragon could smile this would be it. "do you mind me asking his name?" I ask Beth "howl" she says starring down at her feet. I pick up the dragon "did he come with you?" I look into the dragons bright blue eyes.the rest of howl dark black with light blue dots like stars sprinkled across his back. i look back to the girl "yes" she says simply. 

the boy with the navy eyes continues to interrogate me bringing back all the painful memories of my best friend. harry. he found howl and i wandering in his back yard. I remember him his green blue eyes his curly brown hair the dimples in his cheeks when he smiled. he had just turned sixteen when I left. I watched from the rooftop as he rushed outside to give me a piece of his birthday cake.i watched as he searched for me for hours and called my name. I cried that night for one of the only times in my life. for the next mouth or so I had hovered around the town of Holmes chapel watching over him. He seemed to have forgotten me...so I left. i came back to Arnold after 5 years. I was scorned punished for loving a human. it has been a year and a half since I left Holmes chapel for good. "I don't want to talk anymore" I say barely more than a whisper. "OK sorry" "it's fine" i whisper then flutter my wings shooting into the air "howl come" i call. he follows behind me flapping his (to big for his body) wings."goodbye Beth" the boy calls as I push the huge door closed.

I plop myself down on the bed. then I realize I can have a bath! I rush into the bathroom a nice wood tiled room with a furnace for heating the water. I call down the hall for howl he's back in a moment and he blows the fire into the furnace then leaves. it takes about an hour for it to heat up fully and I pour it into the large wooden bath tub.

after my bath I get dressed in a fresh pair of clothes provided by the inn. i walk across the hall and knock on kits door. she opens it and smiles sleepily "heey Chris can i help you?" she yawns. "yeah I was wondering...do you know how to cut hair?" she seems to snap out of her sleepiness raising an eyebrow "how desperate are you?" "on a scale of one to ten probably a seven? it's getting to long"I run a hand though my hair showing that it's to long. it's started to curl at the back of my neck. "OK then get in here!"

kit has sat me down in front of the mirror and placed a towel over my shoulders. "should i be scared?" i ask when i see her find a pair of silver scissors she opens and closes them once smirking "probably" 

OK so i love how everyone else is in like a life or death situation and THESE TWO are just sitting there like "you wanna cut my hair?" "sure I have nothing better to do" XD I love Chris so much! all i want is for him to be happy! I mean I like all of them but i mean....it's Chris! also i did not draw the dragon!
