Disclaimer: ufortunately i own nothing... I wish I did... Thanks for reviewing everyone!!! I'm not in love with this chapter but its kinda in inbetween as im planning the big scene:P let me know what you think

Oh and yes I am playing with the distances and times, otherwise it would take forever and it would just be repeating itself, and that's no fun...so without further ado...here it is

I'll Be There

At the stables:

"Well cousin, a certain Lady Knight is in a terrific mood this morning; might I have the pleasure of thanking you for that?"

You know Meathead I don't think that its any of your business what makes Kel happy now is it?"

"Someone got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning"

"Oh shut it Meathead",Dom said as he stalked off to where the Own were assembling, Neal slightly mystified as to why his cousin was in such a foul mood, rode up in between Owen and Kel, missed the small smiles they gave to each other as they prepared to move out.

"MOVE OUT" The ranks of the Own leaving the palace were a splendid sight all silver and blue, moving in formation. There ranks filled with men who would once again risk their own safety for that of their kingdom.

"So Neal how does Yuki feel about you coming along with the Own on this pleasure jaunt to deal with Spidren's?"

"Well as usual Kel she completely supports my every decision, my Yamani Blossom is the perfect example of a supportive wife"

"Really Neal? Is that why just last week she was chasing you around with her shusken calling you names because you had made one of your 'decisions' to join the ladies in a fan dance without telling anyone?" Piped up Owen

"You simply misunderstood what she was saying that's all, she was telling me how much she loves and adored me for being so brave" sniffed Neal

For once Neal was ready to forget about that incident and his Yamani Blossom, so he decided that he should go ahead and start his interrogation of Kel, and what happened after she slipped out…

"Kel, you slipped out of the ball awfully early, did anything interesting happen to you as you left?"

"Neal that's none of business what goes on in my own time" she said quickly but not before he had noticed a slight blush on her cheeks?

"Keladry, you're blushing, whatever could it mean? Sir Owen what do you think that this fair maidens blushing could be about?

"Neal she obviously doesn't want to tell you what happened, and I'm sure that you'll be the first one to know when she's ready to tell you that we kissed last night…. Wait don't think about anything I just said…"

"WHAT!!!, you kissed her, you kissed him, what, how, when? Kel why would you let him do that?"

Peachblossom then decided that this was as good a moment as any to stretch his head out and bite the squeaker so he took Neal's legs in between his teeth."

OWWW, Kel can't you control that monster?"

"Now Neal why on earth would I want to do that?"

So does this mean that you to are like a couple?

Well that's usually what people do isn't it?

Just promise that ya'll won't go all mushy in stuff in public?

Neal do you know who you're talking to?

Well I just wanted to lay down some guidelines

How bout you mind your own business?

"I'm so misunderstood" Neal sighed as he fell back contemplation how Owen and Kel of all people had got together he was so sure it had been Dom, but that would explain Dom's foul mood this morning if he had never gotten to talk to her. But at least Kel was happy, he was sure it wouldn't last but in the mean time he had to figure out a way how to console his cousin who must be kicking himself now.

Dom was mad at himself, why couldn't he have just told her how he felt when he had had all those chances… damn now she's with Owen, that way too happy knight. How could he make Kel see that they were meant to be together? Well at least he knew that Owen would try to take care of her, but he doesn't realize that she's different even now. I wonder if he sees the shadows in her eyes when she thinks no ones watching… Gods I care for her, more than anyone, I just have to wait, and when she needs me… I'll be there, waiting, hoping, loving.

That was when Third Company reached the area infested by Spidren's and heard the screams of the villagers…

"Sergeants, Kel, Queenscove, report now! " Raoul's booming voice came from the front of the ranks…

Here's the plan…

Hehe, got to love those cliff hangers... like I said not my fav. but it'll do...oh and So i just want to address a review I got about my grammar, I know several languages, most of which have very lax grammatical rules so I apologise if my lack of structure and break up makes you angry. I will try to do my best, but I was never that good at grammar anyway...
