Ok here it is! Chapter 7! I hope you like it;P
Chapter 7
The next morning Tinkerbell, Periwinkle, Fawn, Slivermist, and Vidia all got to the Pixie Dust Tree extremely early. They didn't want to get in trouble for being late, or worst spying on the queen. Periwinkle was the last fairy to get there. She of course had the longest flight, coming from the Winter Woods.
"Guys!" She was out of breath. It was clear she flew as fast as she could to get here.
"Peri! Why are you out of breath?" Tink questioned her sister.
"I was on my way when I saw Queen Clarion and Lord Milori. I flew as fast as I could to get away from the two! Last thing I want today is to have them think I was spying again." She finally caught her breath as the Queen and Lord arrived. They walked up to the group of fairies hand-in-hand. Tink and her friends all shared a look with each other. "How flitterific!" Pasted over their minds when they saw the love in the Queen's eyes.
Vidia stared at Ree. "Why isn't she going to punish us? Was she just tricking us, giving herself more time to think of one? No. Clarion wouldn't do that. She's too kind. I mean look at her eyes. There is no sign of anger anywhere. She really mustn't want anyone else to know about her and Milori. But it's Clarion, there has to be a catch." Vidia was lost in thought when Clarion's sweet, kind voice brought her back to the Pixie Dust Tree.
"Good morning darlings." Clarion said.
"Good morning Queen Clarion, Lord Milori." They all replied respectfully. The fairies eyes grew wide when Lord Milori kissed Clarion on the cheek and flew off. Tinkerbell thought Lord Milori would be joining them. Queen Clarion notice the puzzle looks and explained.
"I thought it would be easier for you girls to talk to me without Lord Milori here. You don't mind do you?" She looked at them for answers and they nodded in agreement. "Good!" Clarion beamed. Her smile was contagious and soon everyone was smiling, even Vidia. "So, who wants to tell me what they know about Milori and me?" Her eyes were filled with hope as Tinkerbell first began to speak.
"Well I know you and Lord Milori love each other with all your hearts. And that you're the most flitteriffic couple in all of Neverland!" Clarion blushed and they all giggled. The sight of your Queen blushing is very funny. Just then Rosetta started talking.
"When you and Lord Milori kiss it just seems so magical!" Even Clarion laughed when Rosetta told her.
"Yeah!" Shouted Fawn. "Even though other fairies don't like it, I think it's so cool!" Everyone looked at her for more, especially Ree. "I think it's cool that you don't care what other fairies think. You found the love of your life and you intend on loving him no matter what." Everyone agreed and smiled. Clarion knew by now she was blushing harder than she ever had.
"Aw, thank you dears." Clarion began, "But I meant what you had learned from your spying." Clarion raised an eyebrow as she waiting for someone to begin.
"We figured out you and Milori are sleeping together." Vidia stated plainly. Clarion cheeks returned to the scarlet red they had been earlier. "But it's probably not true." Vidia finished seeing she had embarrassed Ree. The others waited for a response. Just as Clarion began to speak, Fairy Mary flew up.
"I hope I'm not missing much gossip!" She looked around at the fairies as she sat next to Clarion.
"Who told Fairy Mary?" Slivermist whispered trying not to let the queen hear.
"I did." Everyone turned to Clarion.
"You did?" They asked shocked.
"Don't be a hothead! Of course she did!" Fairy Mary exclaimed.
"She's my best friend, was I not supposed to tell her?" Clarion said shrugging. Just then Vidia interrupted.
"Can you please tell us whether or not we were right?" Vidia, now getting angry, said.
Calmly and shyly Clarion said "We are." All the girls gasped and busted into fits of giggles. They began to drown Clarion in question.
"When did it happen?" "Do you get cold sleeping next to him?" "Does he snore?" "Is he a good kisser?" Clarion's face reddened as she tried answering all the questions. Finally Mary stopped all the question.
"Ree! Give us the details!" They looked at her like little puppies.
"Well," she began, "He's a really good kisser, and he doesn't snore. Sometimes it feels cold but then I see I'm with him and I'm just not cold anymore!" The group was like little kids on Christmas morning. "He had to stay with me a couple nights ago because of the rain and hawks. And ever since then it just wouldn't feel right without him!" They all giggled and squirmed in their seats, hanging on every word the Queen said. They all talked until dark about who likes who, and most of all Clarion and Milori. It was like they had been friends for years. When the sun had finally set and all the stars were out they said good night.
"Oh! Everyone!" Clarion shouted. "Please don't tell anyone else about this." All the fairies agreed and flew home. All but one anyway. Vidia stood there, staring at Clarion.
"I don't get it Clarion?" She said. "Why didn't you punish us? We spied on you and Milori! Are you just not mad?"
"Vidia, I'm not mad. I was worried for a second. Worried you would tell every fairy in Pixie Hollow and Winter Woods. But if you all know, I'm not mad. I trust you girls. I love Milori, and everyone in Neverland knows. However, some things aren't meant for everyone to know. The details about my love life are one of those things." Clarion told her with her caring voice.
"I'd fly backwards if I could Clarion." Vidia told her. What many fairies didn't know was Vidia and the Queen use to be the best of friends.
"Thank you Vidia. And remember, you will find your own true love one day too. Gale wasn't the one." Clarion could tell that's what Vidia really wanted to talk about. A tear rolled down Vidia's cheek. Clarion ran and threw her hands around her old best friend.
"Oh Vid!" Clarion said sadly. She tried to calm Vidia down but it was no use.
"I thought he really loved me Ree! I thought he cared!" Vidia was bawling into Clarion's shoulder now.
"Vidia, I know it's hard. But you have to open up again. Open back up to me, to Mary. It won't get better until you learn to trust again."
"I know, I know." She dried her tears, "It's just so hard Gale, he broke my heart."
"And an even better sparrow man will come to fix it."
"I don't want to see you get hurt again Ree." Vidia said suddenly. Clarion remembered the day Milori broke his wing. Clarion got him to go see Spring with her, and when it broke she, Mary, and Vidia flew Milori back to winter.
"I know you don't Vid. And I don't like seeing you like this. Milori won't cause me anymore pain." Clarion paused for a moment. "And you promise me this."
"What Ree?" Vidia looked at her. She had stopped crying and her face looked almost normal.
"Promise me that you won't let Gale hurt you anymore. And promise me that I have my best friend back."
"As long as I can come to the next Fairy Tale Theater with you and Mary." The two laughed and hugged.
"Of course Vidia!"
