Chapter 2

Xellos walked through the door of the Inn they were staying in. Where had Lina Gone?

He hadn't seen her at breakfast, and she never broke any sort of a promise for breakfast, or

any type of thing related to food. And she had promised to meet him at breakfast!

What had he done? Ok, well, they did wake up in the same bed. And neither of them had any

knowledge of how that might have happened. But that didn't mean she could ignore him! He felt a strong sense of distrust and lonely-ness. He must really feel something more than admiration for the girl. Although, he couldn't quiet put his finger on it. As he walked through the door to his room he began wondering if the others had found out about the little incident.

Would Lina really tell them? Probably not. But if they had found out somehow they might

keep her from seeing him. And he had no doubts that the swordsman and chimera man would be angry with him if they knew. For once, Xellos had no idea what he should do. And he couldn't belive he was letting himself fret over something as silly and reduntant as a woman. Where was his monsterly pride? Frankly he had no idea. He decided instead of worrying over it, he should go and get some tea at a cafe and relax for a while. He knew his master wouldn't be happy that he was filling his mind with things such as these, she never seemed happy when Xellos took a paticular intrest in something that he shouldn't.
He sighed, and pushed open the door of the cafe, sure, he could teleport in, but whta would be the fun in that? Besides, people may notice.
Xellos ordered tea and sat looking out the window, and without realiseing it, his thoughts floated slowly back to Lina.
He immediatly shook his head, as to shake out the thoughts of Lina.
"My goodness, there really must be something going on with me today.." he said.
The waitress brought his tea and he thanked her and began sipping away.
