AuthorNotes: Ok forgot the disclaimer last chapter, so I Disclaim! Squeenix does not belong to me, nor does ff3, or Arc, Luneth, Ingus, Refia or anyone else in the story, unless stated otherwise. Be nice if they did though…
Warnings: hint of ArcAlus & Refia being a nut
Pairings: mentions of ArcAlus & LunethArc
Rating: meh, G. K, whatever.
Notes: More focus on Ingus & Refia's reactions than the couple, they're hiding behind some bushes while Arc and Luneth kiss in a clearing ahead.
24. Shh! (secret)
"This is better than when I caught Arc and Prince Alus kissing in the castle back when we visited Saronia!" Refia whispered excitedly.
Ingus, his cheeks tinged slightly pink, replied with a very eloquent "What?"
"Shh! Don't tell them I said that! Luneth would go mad with jealousy, and Arc would probably die of embarrassment," she giggled silently.
Ingus, remembering he was a knight of Sasune, not some crazed secret-loving girl, began to move backwards, attempting to forget what was mentioned, as well as the image of Luneth and Arc kissing in the clearing ahead.
His escape attempt may have worked a little better if he had been a thief instead of an armor-clad red mage. Though red mage armor was light, it was by no means quiet.
Arc was practically hyperventilating before the other three light warriors could calm him down. And Luneth took the whole thing out on Ingus, because Refia might withhold healing until he was unconscious again.
She withheld healing anyway after he lost two out of three rounds with Ingus over the whole incident. Arc mentioned that this was why he liked boys and almost got aero'ed on the spot.
