Hey there guys, I just want to say thanks for the reviews, it really means a lot to me. Just want to say sorry for not sending this chapter in sooner, but I got writers block for a little while, and hopefully it is all better.
Let me know what you think of this, its a little short but meh!
.:Chapter Nine:.
Cadwyn sat in the tavern, a glass of wine in her hands. Neither her or Tristan has spoken since that morning after Galahad had interrupted them. Really, it was a good thing what Galahad had done interrupting them Cadwyn thought. Tristan would be massively told off if Arthur would have found out. But then again, Cadwyn had wanted it to happen. She had wanted to kiss Tristan, she wanted to do more than that with Tristan, she was in love with Tristan.
Tristan looked over to a sad looking Cadwyn, he couldn't believe he had nearly kissed her, he had wanted to so badly and would have done so if Galahad had rudely walked in on them. He had watched Cadwyn all day and all night. Neither of them had spoken to each other, both not really knowing what to say, but glancing at each other a lot.
At the meeting at the round table, Arthur had basically told them that they were to be escorting the Roman Bishop to the wall in 2 weeks and that then he would be giving them there freedom, Cadwyn was to accompany them also. So here all the knights were, at the tavern, celebrating by getting massively drunk, which was similar to a lot of there nights here in the fort.
Cadwyn sighed and then drank the rest of her wine, and almost stumbled up to the bar to go and get another when she felt a pair of hands on her arms.
"Hello there Cadwyn" Lancelot smirked at her.
Cadwyn smiled, and then took Lancelot's offered arm and began walking over to the bar with him.
"How are you Lancelot?" She continued smiling.
"All the better for seeing you my dear" He winked.
Cadwyn rolled her eyes.
"Couldn't you think of anything more original?" She smirked.
Lancelot almost looked a little shy, that usually worked with the women at the tavern, but then again, Cadwyn wasn't just a women from the tavern.
"Sorry"
Cadwyn laughed and then shook her head.
"So, what do I owe the pleasure of you been here with me?" She asked him, as she glanced at Vanora, indicating that she would like another drink.
"Well, I saw you sitting over here all on your own, and thought I might give you a bit of company. I was thinking that you and Tristan would be together" He answered, as he accepted his drink off Vanora.
Cadwyn sadly shook her head.
"I think we need sometime apart, we're with each other all the time"
Lancelot moved his head to the side.
"You two been arguing?" He softly asked.
Cadwyn shook her head, and tried to hide her watering eyes.
"No no, nothing like that. You must know what it is like though? Been with someone 24 hours, you need a break from them" She answered, her voice a little shaky.
Lancelot nodded, and didn't believe her at all, but he wasn't going to let her know that.
They sat in silence for a while, Cadwyn looking thoughtfully into her cup.
"Are you alright? Been quiet?" Lancelot asked whilst he placed his hand on her back for comfort.
Cadwyn nodded.
"I'm fine. Just feel a bit dizzy. You know, what I'm just going to go outside for some fresh air" She weakly smiled at him.
"You want me to come with you?" He asked.
Cadwyn shook her head, and she said once again with a shaky voice.
"No no, I'll be fine. I'll be back soon" And with that she quickly drank the rest of her drink, and then left.
Tristan watched as Lancelot and Cadwyn talked for a while, and he saw her watering eyes and sad face. He hoped that he wasn't the reason for her been upset. Tristan saw her stand up and then walk outside the tavern. Quickly standing up, he began following her. Once he was outside he focused on hearing her breathing, but at the moment he could hear nothing. He carried on walking until he reached the stables and heard somebody breathing, and muffled crying. Tristan began walking into the stable, and saw Cadwyn with her face in her hands, and her back towards him.
"Lancelot I told you I would be fine" She sniffed and turned around.
Her eyes widened as she saw Tristan standing in front of her.
"Tristan what are you doing here?" She asked, as she began quickly trying to wipe the tears from her face.
Tristan said nothing but began walking over to her.
"Why are you crying?" He asked once he was stood directly in front of her.
Cadwyn looked at him, and then swallowed.
"Erm, I'm just thinking about my mother" She lied to him.
Tristan knew she was lying to him, and this made him slightly angry, he hoped she would have answered him truthfully.
"Tell me the truth Cadwyn" He warned in a quiet voice.
"I am telling you the truth!" She shouted back at him.
Tristan, surprising his self and Cadwyn, suddenly moved forward and pushed Cadwyn back into a wall, and trapped her there with his body.
"I said don't lie" He said to her.
Cadwyn's breathing became fast, and she looked around frightened.
As soon as Tristan saw the frightened look in her eyes, the fright that he had caused he quickly moved away from her, and looked down at the floor.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to do that" He softly told her.
Cadwyn now had tears running freely down her face. She walked over to Tristan and stood in front of him, and then placed her hands on his cheeks, lifting his head up to look at her.
"Its alright" She softly replied.
Tristan nodded and looked down into her eyes, getting lost in the colour of them.
"But I'm not sorry for this"
And with that Tristan crashed his lips down onto hers.
