Chapter 1
Djaq climbed up the tree, watching Will hand food to a blonde girl. She felt pure hatred well up at the sight of the girl. The girl had been flirting with her unknowing Will. Her Will? When had she started thinking of him like that? Will didn't belong to her, to Djaq. He never would. Djaq sighed.
Hands touch
Eyes meet
Sudden silence
Sudden heat
She remembered the time that they had been doing deliveries and his calloused hand touch her fingers… They had both looked away in embarrassment as John approached.
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl
She could not deny how she felt anymore. She could not deny that she was ridiculously jealous of the blonde girl. She couldn't say that she only thought of Will as a friend. The carpenter was the only member of the gang that she would do anything for. With Allan and Robin, Much, John, and Marian there were limits. Besides she thought I am just the little warrior Saracen slave girl. I am not Lady Saffiyah. I am not Blondie.
Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
I'm not that girl
Her dreams, her dreams and hopes of her and Will walking through the forest, with no boundaries, no lies, requited love, came to the surface.
Every so often we long to steal
To the land of what might have been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in
She stared again at the pretty, petite girl flirting with the youngest member of the gang.
Blithe smile
Lithe limb
She who's winsome
She wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl
She turned her face away. Djaq couldn't bear watching another second.
That's the girl he chose
And heaven knows
I'm not that girl
Don't wish
Don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl
