Hey, sorry it's been a while since I updated. But I've had a lot on and I've been working on other stories more than this one. Also, I've had a bit of writer's block and I realised that there's a lot I wanted to do at the start of this story that I didn't. Many chapters of work I wanted to include and that sort of put me off updating.
There's things which I think should have gone first and things I think I just skipped over. Moments I wanted to include to build up the story. I tried writing another chapter to continue the story before writing this, but I couldn't. It just didn't flow right and I didn't want to rush things later on only to change them completely when I re-write the story.
So I have decided to re-write the story now. Well, obviously not all of it at once. But I'm gonna re-start. I'm gonna take my time with it because I felt I rushed it a little and I don't want that. And I realised I don't want part of my story to be rushed and incomplete and the rest of it to suddenly go slowly and be paced like I'm gonna write it (hopefully).
I'm just letting you know, so that you don't get confused and incase you were wondering what was going on. I will now be working on the revised version of this story. It feels wierd saying the revised version, when this story only has 3 chapters. But by the time I reach this point in the revised version I should hopefully have many more chapters than this and I will hopefully update more regularly. Since I cannot just have this as an author's note, I shall post a little of what I wrote for this chapter, to carry you on a little until I start the revised version.

Ellone was sad for a few days after Laguna left them. She didn't really know what to do with herself. She missed him. He was like a big brother or a father she didn't know. He had the same sense of humour and fun as her, but he was also big and strong enough to protect her too - like he had done with the Caterchipillar. She didn't know what games to play. Most of the ones she knew she had played with Laguna and she needed another person to play with. There weren't any other kids in the village she really got on with, and Raine wasn't really the sort of person to play with her like this.
Raine was sad when Laguna left too. As she cleaned the glasses behind the bar, she kept expecting him to run in from one of his patrols and give his report, or to hear him and Elle laughing, playing and running all over the place. He was like a big child, and that was one of things she loved about him. How innocent, yet mature and experienced he was. She hadn't really thought about how she felt about him before he left, but she supposed she had known for a while that she had liked him in that way. He clearly had. The kiss was sudden and very brief, but she didn't care.
Raine went over to the radio and turned it on. She couldn't really concentrate on anything at the moment. The villagers had noticed when they came in for a drink but didn't say anything. None of them really approved of, or liked, Laguna, and didn't really like how Raine was developing an infatuation for him. They thought of it as an infatuation, but to Raine it was much more than that. They hadn't really liked Laguna from the moment he was brought in on death's door, and Raine supposed they thought less of her for taking him in and then letting him stay once he was healed.
A familiar song came on the radio. 'Eyes on Me' by Julia Heartilly. She remembered talking about it to Laguna and Kiros when Kiros first arrived. She loved this song, it was so sweet and romantic. As Raine listened to the song, she couldn't help but think of Laguna even more. She remembered Laguna's eyes just looking into hers and the world almost stopping. The more she thought about it and listened to the song, the more she thought it was perfect for this situation. It was almost as if it could have been written about Laguna. Raine realised that she had been cleaning this particular glass for five minutes and was cleaner than when she had bought it. Putting it away she carried on with her work, trying to get Laguna out of her mind. He was gone now.
