Baltor followed Bloom to the dorm room , with his eyes he followed the movements of girl's slender body.She walked towards the closet searching for something. Baltor didn't gave her much attention and sat down before the fireplace, suddenly he felt a warm blanket being put over his shoulders. "Here we go, we don't want you to catch a cold or something, your immune system is weakened so only a cold could be deadly." Bloom said while passing him and sitting down beside him. Baltor didn't notice that he was still sitting with bare chest until Bloom's words. He tried to get in a more comfortable position but with the first movement a sharp pain shot through his waist. "Are you alright?" Bloom bowed over and stroke over his bandages , "mm, you're not bleeding any more, at least I think so." Bloom carefully stroke her fingers over the bandage bowing her face as much as she could so Baltor didn't see her blush. Why am I blushing , why do I feel butterfly's every time I look at him, I shouldn't feel this, for god sake I lost the one I thought I would share my life with just a few hours ago. The thought of Sky made her feel miserable .Tears were coming to walls over her cheeks. Baltor looked down at the red who was crying and lifted her head. "Hey what's wrong?" He whipped some hair of off her wet cheeks. Bloom pulled back into her original sitting position whipping of the rest of her tears. "It's just" she sniffed " I thought of Sky and the others, it's just so hard to know that they aren't outside , waiting for me to go somewhere. It's just so hard, to first lose my parents and later the rest of the ones I considered family." Baltor felt guild coming up , for both of her loses he was responsible , not only did he get rid of her parents, he also summoned the monster that lead to her friends' death.
"I also lost someone , you may think of me as a heartless creature but once I was in love."
"Whit whom?" Bloom asked who was repressing the urge to cry again.
Ow what am I thinking, the girl is my enemy , I tried to girl her and visa versa , but she looks so fragile and hurt, I want to protect her , maybe I just have to …, no common get a grip , a few more days and this nightmare will be over . " Whit your mother, we were both the same age as you now are, we were in love but she was promised at someone else, she chose for her duty as a princess and married your father, 1 year later she got you. I was consumed by grief and focused my energy at the dark powers, shortly after that I was totally consumed by darkness and my only purpose was to become the world's greatest magician ."
Bloom was shocked by this news , he and her mother actually were together. She felt disgusted by the thought and also felt a little surprised at the thought he could love. She suddenly felt the sleep coming over her. "Mmm, I think I'm going to bed, I'm exhausted and I know I'll need my strength the next few days." Bloom walked up and let her body fell on the nearest bed, she shoved the blanket away and crawled into the bed. "Good night" Baltor whispered but she didn't even heard him because she was already in dreamland.
Bloom felt the sunshine that was coming through a small gape in the curtains burning on her face. "mm" she mumbled and pulled the blanket further over her head. She hadn't sleep very well, when the fire turned out , the temperature also lowered few degrees, she couldn't stop shaking and when she finally fell asleep she woke up again shivering from a nightmare that was about the loss of her friends , no it was defiantly not a good night sleep. Bloom shoved the blanket away and slowly lifted her body until she was in a comfortable sitting position. When she looked around she found Baltor sitting at what appeared to be a desk, studying the books, that they had got yesterday. Bloom stood up and pulled her skirt back in to place.
"Have you found anything?" Bloom said leaning over his shoulder to see what he was studying , it appeared to be a book about the old Egyptian pharaohs. "Nothing much, just found a little paragraph of pharaoh Ra , but nothing that could help us to defeat him. I think we have to look harder, maybe we will found something in the spell books." Baltor said still reading the lines over and over again. "Mm" Bloom mumbled. She looked down the pill of books and fished one out that didn't seemed hard to read. "Here we go" she settled next to Baltor who was still studying the book like his life depended on it. His nose tingled when he smelled Blooms perfume, even though a battle had past she still smelled wonderful. Why is it that the presence of this girl gives me goose bumps? I can't fall in love with her , when this is over we will be enemies again, and knowing her she will never stop until I am defeated again. Like she would ever feel the same way like me.Baltor looked up to see Bloom struggling with the content of her book . With her left head she was holding the book and with the other she was scratching her head. She looked so adorable. Baltor unexpectedly let out a giggle. "What?" Bloom asked , looking straight into his golden eyes. What she wasn't watch she expected, did she actually saw kindness in his eyes?
"Nothing, it just seems that you have a hard time to read the book."
"It's just, its full of dark spells, spells we were forbidden to use at alfea, only the thought of what the consequences of these spells can be make me kind of nauseous."
Baltor hadn't thought about that, she was a creature of light, everything that seemed naturally to him, seemed strange to hear. She had never used those spells.
"Maybe it is better if you focus on the history of our enemy, it doesn't boater me to read about the dark spells."
"Thanx" Bloom stretched out to switch their books , until she saw Baltor grapping on to his waist, she forgot about his injuries for a sec. He couldn't make any brisk movements. "Are you alright ?"
Bloom carefully opened his blouse to look at his wounds. "What are u doing?" Baltor asked feeling uncomfortable with her so near him. "I'm not going to hurt you, I'm just going to check your wounds." Bloom removed the bandages and examined the wounds. They hadn't healed a little, on the contrary , they were getting worse. The bruises were now spreading to the rest of his stomach and shoulders. She stroke with the top of her fingers over gap that was in his waist. Baltor grunted and bit his teeth. "How does it look" he managed to get out with a slight grin.
"Umm" Bloom wasn't sure what she had to say, she wasn't a medical doctor, but it sure didn't took a blind to see that this looked very bad. "I think their healing" she lied. Baltor looked down and smelled her silky hair. This maid the pain a little less worse. "No they 're not, but thank you for lying."
