Forever and a Day
Disclaimer: I dont own anything!! (Except the plot) I just wanted a bit of romance, since I dont have any (WAH!) I'll vent out in these.
Basically I wrote this after reading Emperor Mage. Somehow I know that they got together, I just had my own ideas of what happened. So this is the journey from Carthak to Tortall. And what I thinkg went on between a mage and his student.
Previously:
"I wish you could come" he (Kaddar) siad.
"I dont." Numair sad. Daine kicked him gently.
The First Declaration
Daine looked around her small cabin. The rocking motion of the water made a few items in there jerk around. "Well Kit," she said slowly. "This will be our home for awhile wont it?" Kit made a series of clicks and what not. Daine laughed. "And then, we'll see Cloud!" SHe hugged her elbows. She missed her steadfast companion.
There was a light knock on the door. Then as if the knocker got his nerve, it strengthened. "Comin!" Daine quickly threw her things on her bunk and opened the door. It was Numair. He had to duck to get inside the low door frame. He smiled nervously as he looked over the surroundings. "Nice place." he said earnestly. His eyes kept wandering until they settled on Daine herself. He colored slightly and looked to the ground. Daine blushed too. "Um, not much to look at down there 'cept hardwood floors."
Numair immediately looked up. He gave a boyish grin and procceded to exit Daines room, as if wanting to keep what dignity he had with him. Daine giggled (A/N What!?) and grabbed his arm to stop him. "What? As Cloud would say: The stork-man looks truobled." Numiar gave a weak laugh. Then he inhaled deeply and motioned for Daine to sit down.
He sat down next to her and took her hands in his. He let go of them. He took them again. He was mentally debating what to do. So he just put his hands behind his back. Daine looked at him quizically. "Numair? Whats up?" He looked down at her. "Daine" he sighed. "I dont know what your relationship with Kaddar was. I dont know if you love him, I dont know if you love anyone. I dont know if you do..." Daine interrupted him.
"Numair! Spit it out!" He looked to the floor again.
"Iloveyou." he said softly standing up.
"What?" Daine asked. "And could you sit down, it kinda hurts looking up at you."
"Iloveyou." he said in a normal tone.
Daine was shocked. It felt as if her throat had closed. She jumped up. "Say that again?" she croaked.
"I LOVE YOU!" Numair shouted. "Ok? I LOVE YOU Veriladaine!! He smiled, as if 2o tons had been lifted from his shoulders. He looked down at her and pulled them bot down in sitting positions. "I love you." he said, running his hand over her hair. Daine didnt respond. Numair looked to the ground once more and then left Daine alone.
Daine struggled to keep from falling over. Kitten jumped up next to her. They had both forgotten she was there. "Did he say what I think he said?" Daine asked. Kitten squeeked and nodded.
Well, thats this chapter. Review please! This story I have dedicated myself to. I have chapters 2 and 3 in my head ready to be typed. I just want to know if I'm not doing this all in vain.
