Chapter 45: Another Last Story part 1
Bwuah!
"That was fresh!" I've been drinking all night knowing that the war is over and peace has been brought back to Lazulis Island. "Bring in some more! Bring every last bottle in the bar to me!" I shouted gleefully as I chug down a large glass of beer down my throat...
"Syrenne! You're drunk again!"
Someone shouted my name, a soft and familiar female voice... She was right, I seem to be too drunk to not recognize her right away.
"Ariela! Come join me! The fun's just getting started!"
"Stop it Syrenne, you're too drunk! go up and rest!"
"Fine fine! Bummer..." Now Iam truly bored. No one was around to keep me entertained. That Zael finally did it and went to travel the world with Calista while Yurick and Mirania decided to go that abandoned island to visit his father's grave or that guardian something... Leaving me all alone and lonely. It seems like I really need to start a bar to liven things up a bit. "Where's that idiot Lowell anyway?" I hate to admit it but it was the first time I felt so lonely while drinking... Everyone has went on with their ways leaving poor me with Lowell alone.
"Syrenne, just go and rest upstairs. I promise we will restock out booze tomorrow" said that little caring Arelia
I suddenly remember the situation Iam in. Me and Lowell were the only one left in the mercenary life and without war and fighting to be done, money is starting to become a problem.
"Syrenne? You okay? Your face is red." I realized that I will be sharing the room with Lowell tonight since the others just went on with their ways this morning.
"Hmm? Yup Iam okay Arelia. Iam always okay!" I felt flushed but happy, though I'd rather keep it to myself...teehee
*sound of chimes ringing*
"Hey lads! What I miss?" It was him, the man whom I can't really understand, one moment I want to punch him and another I completely agrees with him. "Lowell..."
"Lowell... You stink! Where have you been?!"
"I know, You don't have to remind me twice. Plus you're so drunk missy"
"Sh-shut up! Iam not drunk" I stood up trying to hit his arm or whatever...
"Whoa. Careful Syrenne" he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards his chest
"Wh-what are you doing. Lowell!"
"You are too drunk to go up the stairs! Let me carry you." He started carrying me like a princess with two of his arms supporting my body. He was really stinky though, but it didn't bother me... I was too busy hiding my embarrassment and my red face.
"Whoa! What happened to my stuff? Why is it in your room Syrenne?" Oh yeah, he was oblivious about the fact that we will be sleeping together starting today due to budget restrictions. I hope he doesn't mind though, well I'll just punch him if he does.
"Sweet! I'll take a bath and go to sleep. I get Mirania's bed. Goodnight cutie Syrenne"
"Sh-shut up." I faced the other way while try to hide my smiling face from him... "Good night Lowell..." I said to him as I drifted myself to sleep.
