REVIEW: "I will return shortly." said Dagonet as the men left the room. Evelyn waited a few moments before approaching Savannah and smacking her upside the head. Savannah sat up with a surprised jolt and frowned at her friend.
&&&&&
"What were you thinking? Savannah you could have fallen on your head and killed yourself." Evelyn snapped.
"Well I tried to think for myself but that man of yours kept thinking about your beautiful smile, laugh, and attitude." said Savannah, "And those were not the only thoughts on his mind."
"Pardon?" Evelyn asked in disbelief.
"That Arthur fellow is quite a thinker also, and that makes it hard to concentrate." continued Savannah.
"That is the biggest load of horse manure and we both know it, you know very well how to deal with a small group of people." Evelyn said. She stepped away from the bed watching Savannah.
"So you are truly telling me that you did not look at one aura since we have arrived?" asked Savannah.
"Well no, actually I have but the difference is that I do not pass out and fall from a horse because I read someone's aura." Evelyn argued.
"Well you can thank in part your husband." Savannah said laying back into the pillow.
"He is not, nor will he ever be my husband. I have no relationship with him whatsoever." Evelyn said in a furious whisper, afraid that someone would hear.
"Well if you are interested to know then I would love to tell you." said Savannah.
Evelyn groaned, "Not again."
"I resent that, I checked before he left the room. Your husband intends on coming back with Dagonet and ask you to dine with him." Savannah said smiling. Evelyn easily recognized that as the smile that meant Savannah had something up her sleeve and whatever it was would not be a good thing from Evelyn's point of view.
"I do not want to hear this!" exclaimed Evelyn covering her ears.
"They have some sort of mission-quest coming up soon so you may want to enjoy your husband while you are still able." continued Savannah.
"I'm not listening, I'm not listening, I'm not listening." Evelyn hummed to herself. To her humming Evelyn was also pacing around the room and covering her ears.
"Unless you think they would allow us to come with them. Do you suppose that they would?" asked Savannah.
"Oh yes I am sure they would allow a pair of women that they do not know to come with them on a mission." Evelyn replied rolling her eyes.
Savannah started smirking Evelyn gave her a suspicious look, "What?"
"Nothing." Savannah said smiling.
"Savannah what is it?" asked Evelyn approaching the bed.
"You said you did not want to know." Savannah said smirking. Evelyn smacked Savannah in the arm glaring.
"Sav! You know better then that!" Evelyn exclaimed.
"I know that I can handle it because your husband was so full of thoughts, mostly about you may I add, he made it easier for me to focus on his." Savannah said with a shrug, "Do not blame me blame your husband."
"He is not my husband!" screeched Evelyn just as the door was opened by Dagonet and Lancelot. Savannah held a calm-innocent smile on her face and nodded at the men in greeting. Evelyn's chest was heaving from the control she was having to exert to not continue yelling at Savannah.
"Do you feel better?" Dagonet asked walking over as he tired to ignore the glares Evelyn was shooting at Savannah. Savannah gave Evelyn a wink which set Evelyn off.
Evelyn turned to Lancelot, "I am hungry." Lancelot frowned in confusion.
"Food, you know what that is do you not?" asked Evelyn.
Lancelot looked annoyed, "Of course I do."
"Please forgive her Lancelot, she is tired of being around me and that is her way of asking you to diner." spoke Savannah as Dagonet began to feel the sides of her face.
"Your fever has gone."
Savannah smiled, "See I am better. Evelyn you have no reason to stay here, you and Lancelot go have a good time." Evelyn stomped out of the room.
"Go on after her." said Savannah nodding towards the door. Lancelot smirked and bowed his head towards Savannah before turning towards the door.
"Oh Lancelot, there is something I would like to tell you." said Savannah.
Lancelot turned back around, "Yes?"
"If you hurt Evelyn, know that where I take you no one would be able to find you, even if they had a hundred years to look." said Savannah.
A few seconds later Evelyn stuck her head back in the room, "Are you coming or not Lancelot?" Lancelot only nodded before he left the room after closing the door behind him. Dagonet felt Savannah's shoulder and upper arm.
"You unnerved him." said Dagonet.
"That is what I wished to do." Savannah said flinching as Dagonet touched her shoulder.
"Did that hurt?"
Savannah nodded, "A little."
"You are not as well as you believe then." Dagonet said with a small smile.
"I can assure you that I am fine. I have had injuries that were far worse then this." said Savannah.
"That does not mean that this is not an injury." said Dagonet.
"Point taken." said Savannah. Dagonet touched the back of Savannah's shoulder.
Savannah pulled away with a cringe along with a small whimper. Dagonet frowned and sat back, "You are not as well as you would like to pretend."
Savannah hissed through her teeth and said, "It is not that painful." Dagonet reached out to touch Savannah's shoulder but she leaned away.
"I have to see what you did to your shoulder." said Dagonet.
"You swear not to tell Evelyn?" asked Savannah.
"It depends on the information." Dagonet said suspiciously. Savannah pulled one arm out of her shirt and turned her back to Dagonet revealing a fabric bandage.
"What happened?" asked Dagonet.
"I was stabbed by an arrow several days ago. Evelyn does not know because it would worry her more then it should." answered Savannah. Dagonet unwrapped the bandage as Savannah dug her nails into the heels of her hands. The side of the bandage that had been on Savannah's shoulder was a light red from bleeding.
"Come in!" called Savannah. Dagonet looked confused. The door opened quietly and closed so that it was difficult to even hear whether or not someone had entered.
Dagonet looked up to see Tristan, "What is it?" Dagonet began applying salve to Savannah's wound while awaiting a response. Savannah clenched her hands tighter as the salve covered her wound.
"Arthur needs you." Tristan answered.
"Now?" asked Dagonet. Tristan nodded.
Savannah smirked and as she watched Tristan she spoke to Dagonet, "Go on Dagonet, I can finish it on my own."
"Tristan could you come finish this?" asked Dagonet standing.
Tristan stood with his face as clear as a slate but Savannah let out a little snicker. 'Do I look like a healer to you?' Dagonet turned in the doorway wearing confusion on his face Savannah shook her head and Dagonet left the room.
Tristan started walking across the room and Savannah shook her head, "Do not." Tristan stopped where he stood and waited for Savannah to continue.
"You do not want to, there is no reason to force you into to doing it when I am capable of doing it myself." Savannah said. Tristan crossed his arms over his chest and leaned back against the wall propping one foot against the wall.
Savannah rolled her eyes, "You should not treat people that way." Savannah unrolled the bandage and began wrapping it around with one hand and when she would reach her other shoulder Savannah would finish the circle and began again.
Savannah looked back up at Tristan as she repeated the process, "That 'better then thou attitude' seems to be a lot like Lancelot's."
Tristan snorted, "Hardly."
"And why is that?" asked Savannah. Her grin grew as Tristan's silence continued.
"I am not like Lancelot." said Tristan.
Savannah's grin grew into a smile, "You are more then you would care to think. That is not such a bad thing." Tristan gave another snort. Savannah finished the wrap that went around her left shoulder and under her right arm. Savannah bit part of the bandage and ripped it the rest of the way tucking the end into the wrap. Savannah pulled her sleeve and got out of the bed.
"Where are you going?" asked Tristan not moving from his position by the door.
"Do you intend on stopping me?" asked Savannah.
