Sorry I didn't update sooner! I had a busy yet amazing weekend! I finally taught my horse how to be ridden bareback and bridless! I am so proud of him. Anyways, here be the next chapter! Thank you all so much for the reviews! Yup, it is coffee:)
Gilan grinned evilly as Will slurped down another cup of coffee. He leaned back in a chair, thinking of how Halt would react. Gilan was passing through Redmont and decided to pay Halt and Will a visit. Halt had to go to the Castle Redmont to talk to the baron. Gilan decided to give Will an overdose of coffee so he would be extremely hyper upon Halt's return. He couldn't wait to see the annoyed look that would be on his old mentor's face.
And the angry one when he finds out all of his coffee is gone, Gilan thought.
"Gilan, Gilan, Gilan!" Will screamed. He jumped into the small living room in Halt's cabin and held up an empty cup.
"I want more coffee! Coffee! Coffee!" he said, jumping up and down.
"You'll have to make some more, you drank it all," Gilan said. Will quit jumping for a second.
"Will Halt be mad that I drank all of his coffee?" The hyper boy asked.
"No, of course not!" Gilan said, making a dismissive gesture with his hand. Will's face brightened, and he skipped back into the kitchen.
"Coffee! Oh beautiful coffee! You're taste so sweet, with honey!" Will sang as he scooped the coffee grounds into the coffee pot. Gilan peered into the kitchen and watched Will, who was now waltzing around while he sang the song.
I wonder if I should leave before Halt gets back, Gilan thought. He watched as Will started running around in a circle, and then ran into a wall.
"Ouch!" Will yelled, rubbing his face
"I think I should stay, just in case he tries and kill himself," Gilan muttered. Will poured himself another cup of coffee.
"Do you want any Gil?" he asked. Gilan smelled the fragrant aroma.
"I'll get myself some." He stepped into the kitchen. Will was scooping spoonful after spoonful of honey into his coffee.
"Will! Leave some honey for me!" Gilan said. He poured himself some coffee. He looked into the honey pot. It was empty. He snatched the spoon from Will.
"Hey! I wasn't done with that!" Will shouted at Gilan.
"Well, now you are, because you're hogging it all!" Will grabbed the spoon from Gilan's unsuspecting hands.
"You used all the honey! I need at least a little!" Gilan said as he tried to snatch the spoon from Will. Will, being as hyper as he was, jumped back several paces. He stuck his tongue out at Gilan.
"Come and get it if you want it!" he said. Gilan chased Will throughout the cabin. Will had so much energy from all the coffee he had drunk that he had no problem avoiding Gilan, whether he jumped over a table, or over a chair, or sometimes, to Gilan, it seemed as if he was bouncing off the walls. Will stopped for a moment, in front of the door. Gilan, steaming with anger that Will wouldn't give him the honey, lunged at him. He body slammed Will. Will's hand shot up, and the honey covered spoon went flying out of his grasp. All of the sudden, the door to the cabin opened. Halt stood in the doorway.
"Gilan! Will! What the heck is…" he stopped mid sentence. The honey covered spoon slammed right into the middle of his face. The sticky honey started sliding into his beard. He glared daggers at the two Rangers on the floor.
"Will, Gilan," Halt said. He pointed a finger out the door.
"Tree."
