10) cry [The mythology, the Alterans, and all other clues about Atlantis aren't mine. They're borrowed from Stargate, which is the best show ever!]
"How?" Puck asks suspiciously.
"You are not the only one who lived through the first age, young fairy prince," Merlin looks at him. "I am older than all fairies; older than all civilizations that history remembers."
"What other civilizations are there?" Puck asks cockily.
"The Great Race," Merlin answers. "The Alterans, also known as the Atlanteans, the Ancient Ones… The oldest race that left all of the old clues: the Nasca Lines in Peru, the builders of the Pyramids, and the city of Atlantis."
"You actually believe that the city of Atlantis exists?" I ask.
"Of course. I have been there, child."
I feel my eyes widen. Oh. "Wow."
"Indeed," the wizard sniffs. Staring at Puck, he says, "Young man, do not doubt me. I have seen things that not even you could imagine."
Puck's jaw drops. "But, how…?"
"You believe that my magic was just a hoax to bewitch Arthur into doing as I say? No, it was much more than that. Magic makes anything possible including telekinesis and telepathy," Merlin raises his hand, and to him flies Puck's wooden sword.
"Hey!" the Trickster King yells indignantly.
I stop myself from laughing, and think some not-very-nice things about Puck's intelligence in my head.
"Gracious thoughts, Ms. Grimm, would be better," Merlin says, turning to me.
"You got busted!" Puck squeals annoyingly.
There is one thing I hope you will not learn, I project my thoughts towards Merlin, keeping my mind blank.
"Already, I know the reason of your tears earlier, Ms. Grimm. If that is what you are hiding, you are too late," he smiles victoriously. Merlin ignores Puck, who was whining about something, and stays focused on me. "The mortal, Jon, I believe, was not worth your tears. He would not have loved you the way he should. The breakup was better, in the long run."
"Wait, Jon broke up with you?" Puck asks, spinning towards me.
With red cheeks, I nod. I feel tears begin to fall down my cheeks once again.
"And you're crying because of that jerk?" he steps closer.
Again, I nod.
"Why?"
"He cheated on me, with Bella," I sniffle. "I thought he loved me. Puck, I loved him."
I see Puck stiffen, but then he puts a hand on my shoulder. "He doesn't know what he's missing," he whispers. "Froggie isn't going to even begin to compare with you. You, however, deserve someone better than him."
Inhaling shakily, I smile. "Thanks, Puck," I whisper.
He mutters something which I think was close to: "I'm turning into such a sap."
I smile wider and hug the fairy who had driven me crazy before. Looking down at me awkwardly, he wraps his arms around me.
Whispering, he says, "I'm always here for you, Sabrina. Just tell me."
"Thanks," I whisper.
We separate, and I turn to Merlin. "Unless you have any more secrets to spill, I have some questions."
