After Belle was able to fine Layle everything was back to the way it used to be. Keiss was in charge of all of the selkies. Althea became Queen of the whole Litly Kingdom. Layle does what he usually does being lazy until he gets some kind of odd job or saving Belle like always.

When Belle reunited with Layle she didn't know what to say to him. "Except for I'm glad your back Layle, by the way, you still owe me something," she said with a wink. Come on hurry up you lazy bum get inside Keiss ship before I leave you behind. Layle "whatever you better know how to fly this thing, Belle, if you know what's good for you."

Don't worry Layle I got this hang on tight so he decides to hold on to Belle until they made it back to grassland station.

Belle felt a little chill when she felt Layle warm hands around her waistline. In her head "why does feel good being so close to Layle like this, I know we became good friends but still."

Layle "hey Belle look out!" Huh? When she came to she saw that she almost crash into a big rock.

"Phew that was a close one," Belle said. Layle "hey I thought you told me that you can fly this ship little miss smarty pants". "It's not my fault I'm not used to being in a tight place with a guy alright" she replied to Layle.

He was thinking about playing a little prank on her to lighten up the mood but he decided not to. Even though he was feeling board out of his mind.

With Keiss, he was giving orders to the selkies to repair the damages Gergon did to there hometown in order to take Belle. Queen Althea started to feel sad that she hasn't heard a word from Keiss about Layle whereabouts.

"Your Highness are you ok?" One of the guards asks her. "Don't worry about me I'm fine really let just focus on rebuilding our kingdom and peace with the other tribes" Althea replied".

The guards "will do just leave it to us we won't let you down".

With Belle and Layle she started to feel a little light headed when she was about to land Keiss ship in front of the grassland station.

Layle "hey Belle are you ok? you don't look so good". He saw that her face starting to turn red."Don't worry Layle I'm fine really?" Belle said when she landed the ship Layle got out first.

She tried to get out to but she fell into the water fountain but Layle was too late to catch her.

Belle! Are you ok? He jumped into the water and picked her up. Layle put his hand on her four head "man she's burning up I need to get her to a safe place so she can recover" Layle said.

He carried her bridal style into the capital. But he didn't know that Queen Althea will be the first person he sees through the door.

Layle used his powers to open the door and closed it.

Althea Layle! Is that you? It is you she was so happy that she ran up to him she wanted to ask him so many questions. Like how did he live threw at big battle with Gergon?

The Queen looked down and saw that Layle was holding Belle in his arms.

"Layle what on earth happened to Belle?" Althea asked. "She just suddenly pass out and fell into the water fountain after she got out of Keiss ships when she landed it" he replied

She burning up to we need to get her to a safe place so she can recover.

Follow me Layle Althea lead Layle to her kingdom. Here you can put Belle in this room. "I'll send a maid to check her out and change her out of her wet clothes," Althea said.

"It's ok Althea I can take care of it" Layle replied.

"Wait a minute what if she wakes up in the middle of this and find out what you're trying to do to her," Althea asked Layle.

"No need to worry I'm sure I can this done before she even wakes up Althea," Layle said. "Ok if you say so well then I'll be going back to my duties if you need anything just let the guards know" Althea replied.

Layle just waved his hand at her when she left the room.

Ok, the first thing I have to do is take off her shoes of course then her jacket. After he took off her shoes and jacket he has two last things to do. Remove her shirt and pants. "Damm why did I tell Althea I can handle this!" Layle yelled in his head.

Then he remembers something She doesn't have anything to wear after I undress her. Layle I know she can wear my shirt while I wear my jacket.

He pulled Belle closer to him so he can remove her shirt. Layle "so Belle doesn't like to wear a bra huh". He felt that her upper body was really cold. After he removed her shirt.

When that was done he quickly took off his shirt and put it on Belle. He slipped it over her head and her arms through the sleeves.

While trying not to look at her boobs at the same time.

Then he removed her pants too. He felt that her underwear was really wet too. So he thought that it will be best to keep it on her. So when that was all done he carefully laid her back down on the bed.

Because he doesn't want to get slapped on the face from Belle. Or saying that he is a low down pervert. Making a move on me when I'm asleep. He saw that there was no blanket in the room.

When that was done he thought Belle look kinda cute wearing his shirt. Which went halfway down her legs.

So he put her clothes on top of the table near the bed.

Then he slipped on his jacket to wear after he gave Belle his shirt

"Well, then there's nothing I can do but wait until she comes to," Layle said. So he leans his head against the wall and fell asleep.

Then Belle started to come to where am I? How did I get here? She tried to get all the way up but her body was sore all over. She was able to lean her body up a little. Then she saw the way she was dressed her faced turned completely red.

She can tell she was wearing Layle's shirt because of the color and design.

Did me and Layle then she quickly let go of that thought.

So she moved closer to Layle to wake him up. By getting on her knees and leaning her face close to his face.

Hey, Layle wake up! She started to shake him.

But no reaction yet then she shakes him one more time. This time harder than before. Then he started to open his eyes. "Hey, Belle you're awake now so how are you feeling?" Layle asked.

She responds by saying "like hell and it's really cold in here".

"Here take my jacket to Belle," Layle said to her. He removed his jacket and gave to her.

Since he knows that there is no blanket in this room.

"What about you? Won't you catch a cold to Layle?" Belle asks. While putting on his jacket.

She started to blush even more. "What's wrong Belle don't tell me it's your first time seeing a guy half naked" Layle said in a joking voice. "Layle it's not the time to be joking like this!" She said to him.

Belle saw that his jacket was big her and his shirt was too.

"Don't worry I'll be fine" Layle replied. All that matters is you getting better little Mis Selkie.

"Fine" was all Belle was able to say that moment.

"I'll call the guards so they can buy you some medication," Layle said. Stay here I'll be back in ten. "Wait Layle are you really going out like that? Being shirtless?" Belle asked. I'll be fine he was lucky enough to see a guard that was about ten feet away from their room.

Ok, Mr. Crystal Bearer, I'll handle this. Five minutes later "here you go just make sure your girlfriend gets better," the guard told Layle.

Layle she's not girlfriend alright! The guard yeah right.

"Belle, I'm back here the stuff you need to feel better," Layle said. Thanks, Layle she was able to get up walk up to him and gave him a hug. She felt that her underwear was really wet and uncomfortable to wear.

"Layle I need to" Belle started he whispered into her ear and said, "you want to take off your underwear".

"Yeah that what I need to do and how did know about that?" She asked Layle.

"I felt it when I was changing you into my shirt" he replied. "So do what you have to do I won't look I swear. Besides, I can hardly tell since you're wearing my shirt and jacket" Layle said.

"Ok I'm taking it off," Belle said when that was done she threw it in the corner of the bed where Layle put her clothes at. Then she ended leaning her head back down from exhaustion and landed at Layle's chest and fell asleep.

Layle man not again he just let his arms stay still at that moment.

With the medication in his left hand. While the room door was wide open.

Keiss "my, my isn't this a pleasant sight to see". He turned his head around and saw that his best friend Keiss is in the front of the door.

"Hey, Keiss it not what it looks like I swear" Layle replied in a quick voice.

"Oh really then why are you half naked and why is Belle wearing your shirt? And jacket?" Keiss asked.

While walking into the room with an I told you so look on his face.

I'll tell you what happened after I put Belle back in bed.

Layle picked her up once again and laid her down on the bed and put the medication on the table near the bed.

"I see so you and Belle" Keiss started. Then Layle cut him short by saying "we didn't do anything like that!" Here's what happened "I see here I thought you and Belle" Keiss brought up once again.

"Why in the hell will I do something like that? Belle following me around is already a pain" He said.

"By the way what are you doing here?" Layle asks Keiss. "I got orders from Queen Althea to come here to help out with something important". "Can you tell what it's about?" He asked his best friend Keiss.

"Sorry, it's classified Layle" Keiss replied to him.

"Besides don't you have someone to take care of right now?" Keiss said. When he turned his head over to Belle.

And I don't want you to destroy anything every time you help out on a mission.

Layle "fine you win Keiss" " I know you want some action Layle" Keiss replied but now it's not your time crystal bearer.

I'm heading out now see you soon Layle.

"Bye Keiss see you around if I can," Layle said. With that Keiss walked out of the room.

When Keiss was out of sight Layle didn't know what to do. Other than waiting for Belle to wake up to give her medication to take for the flu she caught. So he decided to sit down on the bed and take a nap to along with Belle.

Then Layle closed his eyes and went to sleep. Little that he knows Belle was moving around in her sleep.

She somehow got into contact with Layle lower part of his body. Belle had her hand around his waistline in her sleep. Since he was close to Belle in her sleep. Then she pulled him down and hug him in her sleep.

Layle felt his whole body move so he quickly opened his eyes.

He saw that Belle was hugging him in her sleep for crying out loud. Her legs were warped around him. She whispered your so warm Layle it's really freezing in here. He saw that the first thing he didn't do right when he walked into the room with Belle in his arms.

He didn't close the window that was opened. Layle I need to close that window.

Layle tried to use his powers to close the window. But it didn't work he wasn't close enough to the window.

The window was on the other side of the room. I give up! He said out loud in his head.

With Keiss, he and Althea were giving orders to the guards on what to do. And Althea was giving Keiss a secret mission. "Keiss do you think you can?" Althea asked him. Of course, I can your highness.

She knew that Layle and Belle have a thing for each other but there to much of a chicken to do something about it. Even Keiss can see it to plus some of the selkies.

So Layle ended up hugging Belle in her sleep to keep her warm then sleep took him to.

3 hours later Belle opened her eyes and saw that she was hugging Layle in her sleep. She tried to get up but Layle had a strong grip on her. "Layle sure does look cute when he's sleeping," Belle said.

Belle turned her head to the other side of the room. And saw it was starting to get dark.

"I guess I can't doing anything right now until Layle wakes up and un-hug me," Belle said. So she just ended up closing her eyes and going back to sleep.

Alright, I'm trying to make this a one-shot kind of thing but I guess it's not going to happen at this point. And it's going to be my second Crystal Chronicles story R&R and please be nice I'm begging you gets on knees XD and begs
