Hey guys! I've been kinda stuck lately and I'm really really sorry about the late post but I promise I'm not giving up. Oh and I've gotten a few suggestions that this should become M. Any thoughts?
After 3 hours of stomping around in the outer Wyldwood, I was really starting to feel sore. My previous joy of not being...well... Dead, was long gone.
So when Ash suggested we stop, I almost fell to my knees. We set up camp and I hadn't even gotten to sit down yet when Ash informed me that I was due to spar.
I groaned and swayed on my feet- more in exhaustion than sickness, and then turned and stepped away.
I stopped though, when I realized that the Winter Unseelie wasn't behind me.
Ash gave me a weak smile.
"It is not me who will have the pleasure of training you now, Elena."
I almost cried as realization hit me.
It was around 4 in the afternoon, fairly warm and the light cast a golden shade over everything in sight.
It was the perfect time to practice Summer Glamour. Which would've been great had my teacher not been an obnoxious and very cute faery.
I looked at Ash pleadingly and he shook his head slowly, nodding towards the woods.
I hung my head and began walking towards where I assumed Puck would be.
Don't get me wrong. Normally, I was pretty good at all my training, being a fast learner but today I was not in the mood. And I KNOW that Puck is gonna push my buttons.
I stopped in place and considered turning back when Puck's voice floated over to me.
"Are you coming Argentina? Or do I have to train myself?"
I cursed him under my breath and stomped over to the tree that I thought held the Summer fey.
I looked up and crossed my arms.
"Stop being an idiot and come down here."
Puck's laughter rang out and I clenched my fists.
"You oughta be trained way more often Princess. That's not even close to where I-"
I whirled around and roundhoused the tree to the left of me.
Puck landed at my feet with a very unmanly and high pitched squeal.
He pulled himself up from the grass and upon seeing my amused grin, he cleared his throat and grunted.
"Lucky guess."
I smirked and threw his words back at him.
"Whatever fire crotch. Now are you gonna train me or do I have to train myself?"
A few minutes later Puck was telling me that I'd need to start easing into using Glamour now that I was becoming accustomed to it.
I listened intently, because even though he could be an idiot 94% of the time- Puck is an amazing teacher.
I can always grasp exactly what he means because he explains it so simply.
Also because the prankster is so captivating when he speaks of Summer, of Glamour, of his home.
I can tell that he must miss it. But at the same time his other home is the Wyld.
Where he is free to just be.
I suppress a smile at this and focus back in on Puck's words.
"...So, I'd like to try a few things with you Princess."
I blinked and looked around because in the back of my mind, even though I knew he meant that in an entirely innocent way, I still found the statement dirty.
At my expression Puck's lips tugged up in a smile and he let out a short laugh.
"Not like that Argentina."
I relaxed and his smile turned devious.
"Unless that's what you want Princess..."
I scoffed at him and shoved his arm, causing him to slip from his position leaning on a tree and almost topple over. He caught himself and made a face at me.
I laughed and soon after we were face to face about a foot apart.
Puck kneeled in the grass and placed both of his hands facedown on either side of himself.
All at once the ground under him started to hum and I braced myself for a show...
Well? I know it's short but it's that way for a reason. And I need to know how you guys think this training should go. Reviews are always appreciated and yeah. Check out 'Are you sure those are real?' If you haven't already.
