Emerald ~book 2~

Chapter 10

       2 months later(10 months in total)
                               ~Saint POV~
           Love is strange don't you think? When you find that one person that makes your heart beat really fast and can make you happy and stronger in life. They call that love but to him love is much more than that.

           Love is when you have someone that you can trust with anything. Someone who will always be there to comfort you when your sad. Someone who would do anything just to make you happy. Someone that completely understands you.

           He remembers in the beginning of the school year Janis had asked him for ways to get closer to Zee. Everyone seemed to think that they were together just because Zee saved him that day twice. He remembers it very well what happened that day.

          "Saint you seem close to Zee do you know how to get closer to him?" Janis asked out of curiosity.

         "I... no Janis not really." Saint replied coolly.

        "Come on Saint you have to know something" Janis pushed pouting. Saint sighed and thought for a second.

       "Well maybe try to approach him but if he isn't interested then back off for a bit. It seems like Zee doesn't like to be touched much so avoid physical contact. Slip in little by little and he may act warmer to you." Saint was just saying things that he's noticed about Zee for the last couple of days.

         "Thank you so much Saint" Janis praises before skipping away. He heard a laugh behind him and turned around to see Zee himself. He walked a little closer to Saint with a smirk.
 
        "You understand me more than I thought you would." Zee says in a playful tone.

"I don't understand you Zee I'm just going off what I've noticed about you." Saint answered blankly.

"What so you've been watching me?" Zee smirked widely.

"N-No Ughhhh! Just shut up Zee." Saint said a little flustered then left quickly. The only thing he heard was a faint laugh from behind him.

          Saint smiled softly, that's what love is to him. Someone you can always rely on and trust and love. Zee was never really keen on sharing his life from the past. But he does know from Mew that there was a time when Zee didn't believe in love. Saying it was just a word someone says and nothing else. But Saint had drove Zee to believe in love again.

         He remembers how clueless and eager he was to become Zee's friend on that game. He did everything in his power to break down his wall. He teased him, he made him laugh, he got on every day to see him. He still remembers the huge smile he had on his face when Zee surrendered.

          "Sup I don't know how or why you did it but you succeeded. My walls have come crumbling down by you. I'll be glad to call you my friend."

         He let out a soft chuckle by the memory. Zee was always a shy person who never spoke his mind. His heart of ice covering up every emotion he felt. But when he came along it was like Saint was the fire that melted Zee's heart of ice. Zee became warmer, he smiled more, laughed more often. Zee's laugh is music to his ears, he loves everything about Zee.

It's so hard to know Zee's suffering but he can't do anything about it. He takes a deep breath and closed his eyes. 2 more months.. then I can see Zee. How he will face Zee is a different question. But he'll leave that to think about later.

A tear falls down his cheek. Maybe if he had been smarter he wouldn't of done this. He'd be lying if he said he didn't blame himself for what happened.

He's also kind of nervous about seeing Zee as a werewolf. He knows it's just ears and a tail but from what he's saw of Zee as a werewolf. Probably isn't what he's gonna see if Zee this time. Christmas is coming up but he doesn't know how he can get through it. But he will.
