Part 13
Just when I needed him he was not there…the man…no the boy pointed his arrow at my heart and where was Robin when I needed him? He was there too late to be of any use to me but did as I bid when I asked him to make sure the boy won the arrow…..I remember looking at him with contempt in the corridor and he knew it he saw how I felt….I saw the pain, the hurt reflected in his eyes…..he hurts more than I gave him credit for…he feels a lot, especially for me it seems….as I feel for him in a way that Guy will never have the same privileged place in my heart.
My heart was in my throat as the Sheriff and Guy realised Robin fired the arrow….I prayed then that he would get away….and he did….and that was all that mattered, that and Rowan winning the arrow.
I do not want to marry Guy in the morning I really do not but what other choice is there?….None….I have made my choice and now I have to live with it. We…Robin and I both have to live with it. I need to move, I wince as I shift my position I am still sore but what can I expect….I think I almost died….some would say I am lucky to be alive and others would say perhaps I should have died then I would not have to meet my doom….my doom of marrying a man I do not love…..when my heart belongs to another……..
