You guys are awesomeWithout further ado (Iv always wondering what ado is… and why there isn't any more of it…) here is the part part of the story
Isabel
Arkarian comes up behind me.
'Can I talk to you for a second?' he whispers.
Too in shock to think of an excuse not to, I just nod and follow him outside, giving a wary look to the jeep where Jimmy stayed, making conversation with Rochelle's father.
Seeing the look on my face, Arkarian reassures me, 'Don't worry, he has his thoughts open to us, he's fine.'
I nod in approval, still unsure though. Ignoring that, I go back to why I'm here, 'You wanted to talk to me?'
'Umm, yes. Look, Isabel…'
I just stare at him, making him go on.
'I was talking to Ethan earlier today.' I already knew that, Matt told me.
'And? So was I.' I think he might be trying to apologize. There's no way he's going to get off lightly after everything he has put me through over the past few weeks.
'Well, he was saying he was telling me how stupid I'm being. That I shouldn't waste time. Just in case. He was saying that because he was too afraid to act, and held back, he was robbed of time that he could have spent with Rochelle. He didn't want to lose her, but because he didn't want to be the one to say something first, he now has to live with the consequences. I don't want to make the same mistake.'
'Okay,' he couldn't just say that and get away with it, he needs to actually say it!
'I'm sorry,' he confesses, as he runs his hand through his temporarily brown hair, 'I'm so sorry! I should never have put anyone first in my life other than you. Especially her. I didn't even think about how it would affect you, which was so incredibly stupid of me. If I could take it all back I would. I'm sorry for pushing you away when you tried to talk to me about it. I was blinded by the shock of her coming back into my life so suddenly. I should have told her from moment one that there was no chance she would ever win my heart again. My heart has already been stolen from me, and I don't want it back.'
I smiled. This is what I wanted. This is the Arkarian I love.
'I love you Isabel. You are my soul mate, I will always love you, and I can't love anyone else. I know you're mad at me right now, and you have every right to be. I just need you to know that my feelings for you haven't changed.'
He gives me a small sad sort of smile, and is about to walk inside. I don't want to stay mad at him any more. Yes, he was wrong, but he apologized. I would be lying to say that I didn't love him as much anymore. If anything, I love him more.
I grab his arm before he can walk away, and pull him round so he's facing me. I lift my hand to his cheek, and bring it down to meet my face.
'I love you too.' And I drag him down and kiss him to show that I mean what I said. He doesn't hesitate and kisses me back.
When I finally pull away, he gives me a big hug, like he doesn't want to let me go, and when he does, he takes my hand and we go back inside. Smiling.
Matt
When Arkarian walks back inside with my sister, it is obvious that they're back to normal. They are holding hands and smiling.
You guys good? I ask Arkarian with my thoughts.
Yep. I had a talk to Ethan earlier today, and he showed me how really stupid this whole thing was. I apologized, and we're fine now.
I smiled at the two of them. Isabel practically beamed back at me. At least that's one of our problems out of the way. Unfortunately, Dillon is still in love with my girlfriend, and Rochelle's father is in the jeep just outside.
I can never forget how afraid Rochelle was of her father. He used to beat her. I know exactly how she feels there, having been in the same situation myself. But he also beat her mother, and killed her stepmother. In the labyrinth, when her and Isabel were faced with their greatest fears, he appeared to her there. Even though she knew he couldn't be real, her fear of him fed the image. I don't even want to imagine how scared she would be meeting him face to face as we are now. This is the only time I've ever been accepting of her death. I don't mind as much that she died now, as long as she never had to face her father again.
I do find it strange though. Rob doesn't seem like the kind of guy that Rochelle made him out to be. I know he's been in jail for most of her life, but not even his thoughts betray any sign of the man she was so afraid of. This doesn't make me trust him, but does make me wonder more about his motives to see Rochelle. He claims Rochelle's mother walked out on him, which may be true, but he left out the minor detail of being in jail for murder. The other thing that is bugging me, is how he knows that Rochelle came to Angel Falls. I can't imagine that murderer's are just given the address of their family after Rochelle would clearly be in danger from him.
Shaun comes in to pay for the petrol, and he tells us to come back to the car. He projects his thoughts to me that he doesn't know what to do with Rochelle's father once we get back to Angel Falls. He can't imagine how he could have gotten out of jail. No one gets less then ten years on a charge of murder. Yet I still can't imagine how his thoughts wouldn't betray him if he had escaped.
We pile back into the car. Ethan is now sitting in the front seat. No one wants him to have to be around Rob. Jimmy is sitting between Dillon and Rob, and in the back row, Arkarian, Isabel, Neriah and I have all squished in. With only an hour and a half or so to get home, Jimmy makes conversation with Rob, Ethan stares out the window, and Dillon is slowly crushing his coke can into a pulp. Isabel and Arkarian are just talking quietly between themselves. It's nice to see them back to the way they were before, not at each other's throats, and both miserable. Neriah is glad to see them back together as well. She had a talk with Isabel earlier, and she had been really upset about the whole situation.
Neriah begins to fall asleep, her head resting on my shoulder. She looks even more beautiful when she's asleep. I brush her hair out of her eyes, and rest my head on top of hers, smiling at the knowledge that she will always be mine.
I'm a hopeless romantic… I love fluff… what can I say :P(If you don't like it… get over it. Its staying!)
please review!
