Fate's Play

Am I a stranger ?

Felix P.O.V. 

                                "I'm so screwed! How is she gonna fall in love with me if I start losing her precious things?" I questioned myself in terror. In order to find her dog, I used my instincts. I heard the sound of the tires, water flowing deep down the woods, a mild thud which is quite unusual and a loud bark. Feeling relieved, I followed the bark and found her. Her leash got stuck in the bark of the broken tree. "There you go" I said to her as I picked her up. "What is your name?" I asked her stupidly and a memory played in my head.

                               "Quinn, what's it's name?" I asked her. "It's a she and her name is Pip" "Cute" "Isn't she?" she asked. "Well, not more than her owner" and she blushed. I smiled at the effect, I had on her. God, I seriously can't take the distance between us! I want to hold her hand in mine forever but that happens only when she calls me hers. I don't know how long it will take to make her love me and I hope it's soon. "You can call me Merida" she said as she pulled me out of my thoughts. I nodded and stared at the space ahead of me. I always called her Merida in her past incarnations and she liked it. "Okay Merida" I smiled contently as she asked me to call her that way, knowing I was just few steps in reaching our love.

                               I ran fast enough to reach her only to find out she wasn't there. So, I tied Pip's leash in a bench and started to walk in the direction she went. I heard her heartbeat and to be honest, they were my favourite sound and will be in my entire life. When I turned around, I saw someone lying on the ground. "What the heck is that girl doing down there" I thought. Where is Merida? I ran more in that direction to find her scent but when the fragrance came from the opposite direction, I stopped in my tracks. Realization slapped me hard when I saw who that person was. 

                                  Terror filled my brain as the person turned out to be my Merida. "Merida, wake up, wake up.... please!" I cried out. My heart broke when I had to remain silent to check her heartbeat. But the sound calmed me down. "She is alive" I whispered. Immediately, I pulled her up in my arms, the way I always longed for but certainly not in this condition. "I swear if something happens to her, I won't be able to forgive myself" I said with guilt. I didn't care about the people around us as I ran all the way to the hospital. "Doctor!" I yelled, ignoring the stares I got from the people in the lobby. I dashed through the door and spotted the doctor. "Please can you treat her?" I asked the lady as I placed Merida safely on the bed. 

                              She quickly took her stethoscope and checked her pulse. "You stay outside, please" she said. I nodded and left the room. After sometime, she came out  and asked me, "Patient's name?" "It's Mer- I mean, Quinn Merida Luke and her age is 17" I additionally added it. "Okay... Your relation with her?" "Boyfriend" my mind commented. "I'm her friend, ma'am" I said politely. "Okay so please inform their parents that you have admitted her, here" "Is something serious?" I panicked. "I hope no..." she pulled her eyebrows. "But I still need to do a complete check up" she assured me. "Okay, thank you ma'am" I said a bit a relieved. "Ms. Hart" she smiled as she closed the door.

                          "Itherael" I whispered. "I know you can hear me" I said silently. "If Azrael's the one causing this, then please tell him to stop" I huffed. "You aren't following the rules" "It is not I" came the booming voice. "Then?" I questioned him. "It was her fate that pulled her into this condition" Itherael said. I looked at him in confusion. He floated in the air with majestic pure white wings and a golden robe. He looked at me sadly as he said, "Time is running my friend..." his voice boomed in my head. "Try to save her as fast as you can" I placed my head in my hands as I processed what Itherael had said. "Time is running... Her fate pulled her into this condition?" If what he said was the truth, then has that bastard entered her life again?
