I have decided that I am going to continue this. Thanks to everyone who reviewed and showed great support! :D BTW the story will be told in mostly Zoey's POV
Goodbye, forever
Rythian
In the few minutes it took me to read the letter, I felt my heart shatter. My head pounded and the paper fluttered, like a butterfly, before coming to a rest on the ground. "No, please God, no! This can't be real, this can't be happening." I whispered to myself, my whole body shaking. Tears streamed down my face, salty tears of horror, draining from me the happiness Rythian and I had shared. I crumpled to the ground, my silent tears suddenly becoming sobs and I couldn't stop. The pain inside me, the pain from the jagged pieces of my heart made my cry, but not for me, my tears were for Rythian. "He thought I hated him. I should have told him... this is my fault!" By now, my weeping was so great that I could feel the force on my throat as air tried to enter my body. I heard the door open, and a man's voice came from the doorway. "Zoey? Oh gosh, are you ok." For one moment I thought it was Rythian and I felt my heart slowly fix itself... until I realised that Rythian didn't have a Scottish accent. This made the pain worse as the sharp shards of my heart repelled each other and cut the inside of my body. My head started spinning and I could hear the man speaking to me, but his voice was a blur. Slowly, I gave into the pain and allowed my eyes to close.
"Will she be OK?"
"She should be, but she needs rest."
My eyes flew open to see a familiar face bent over my, his eyes full of concern. "N-nilesy?" I stuttered, feeling as though someone had hit me in the head with a baseball bat. He grinned at me, "The one and only! How're you feeling? You where quite... er, "broken" when I found you." The memory of what happened hit me with force and I felt tears rolling down my face. "It's ok, Zoey." Nilesy said in a soothing voice. He placed his hand on my shoulder reassuringly and smiled at me. I looked down, a lump forming in my throat as I tried not to break down.
"Umm... do you guys want some time alone?"
I glanced up to see Martyn standing next to Nilesy. I figured that he must have been the one healing me, which made sense because he was part Nature spirit. His sapphire blue eyes glancing towards the door, giving the impression that he needed to get going. I gave him a small smile to show I was grateful, "You can go if you want, thanks for... for healing me." He returned the smile, "Glad I could help. If you need anything, I'll be at my camp." The blonde turned and walked out of the door. I stared after him trying to avoid Nilesy's glance. I knew he wanted to talk about Rythian. I knew he wanted to help but I also knew that there wasn't much point. My heart was already broken beyond repair. I felt like shutting out the rest of the world and falling asleep, only to never wake up...
Aaaand stop! I was going to make it longer but I was sorta rushed for time.
