Here is chapter 14, thank you for your reviews and happy birthday ILOVESCABIOR, I hope you like it. I don't own anything, enjoy.
It was about 10 minutes before Emma woke up. She slowly opened her eyes and sat up. "W-what happened? All I remember is going to get some firewood and then-"emma gasped and touched the cut on her head. Scabior bent down and said, "We where errmm….. We where collecting fire wood as you said and you… fell and hit your head on a rock."
Scabior got the hair that had fallen into the cut on Emma's forehead and put it behind her ear. "You all right beautiful?" Scabior asked. He got Emma's arm and pulled her up. "Yeah I-I'm fine, thanks." Emma replied.
"Come on love let's go back." Scabior said. Scabior felt very awkward and very guilty. "God maybe I should tell her I mean she has got a right to know what happened to her father. What? And have her explode on you again you must be joking mate. Just look at her she is so calm and blissfully unaware about what has just happened. Come on you have lied to plenty of people before. I know but she's different. I have never met anyone so, so beautiful in my life I can't bare seeing her all upset and stuff." Scabior was fighting a battle with his conscience about what is right to do and what is not. It was like there was one angel on his left shoulder and one devil on his right shoulder.
They didn't talk to each other until they got back to camp. Scabior walked into the tent and Emma followed. "There's a jug of water and two cups over there can you fetch them love?" Emma nodded and walked to the other side of the tent.
Scabior quickly got the watch out of his pocket; it was like it was burning a hole though his jacket desperate to tell Emma the truth. But Scabior had made up his mind he opened the top draw in the chest and hid it under some books. "Here." Emma was right behind his with the water and cups. Scabior nearly jumped out of his skin and slammed the draw shut before turning to Emma.
"T-thanks love." Come on let's sit outside. As Emma walked towards the lit fire she felt confused. "Wait I thought we where going to get some firewood because we had run out but there is plenty and a lit fire already here."
They sat down and Scabior saw that Emma was confused. "You all right love?" Emma's train of thought was broken by Scabior's question. "Y-yeah I'm fine." Emma looked at Scabior. He was staring into the fire and his palms where sweating.
"Something isn't right. Why is Scabior acting so strange? Normally he would have pulled me onto his lap by now but no he is just sat there. Something is troubling him." Emma poured some water into a glass and gave it to Scabior. He smiled slightly before turning his head back to the fire. Emma sighed and poured herself a drink.
Scabior turned to Emma suddenly and smiled at her. He sensed that she knew that something was wrong so he had to change that. "Come here love." Scabior put the glasses down and took the jug from Emma's hands. He then pulled her onto his lap again and looked into her eyes. She smiled and hoped that he was back to his normal self again. He examined her face as Emma studied his eyes. He stared at the cut on her head and could see that it had stopped bleeding. "That must hurt beautiful." Scabior outlined the cut with his finger.
"It does sting a little but its okay." Emma smiled. Scabior took his hands from her waist and forehead and reached into a pocket in his jacket. He pulled out a small jar with some sort of dark blue paste in it. Scabior opened the jar and scooped some of the paste out with his finger.
As he placed his fingers on her cut she flinched a little. "It will sting a bit love but trust me it makes it better. Scabior also took her wrist and took off the fabric he had placed on it earlier. Emma closed her eyes because she didn't want to see the cut that Grayback had made a few days ago.
Scabior did the same to her wrist before putting it back in his pocket. "Better?" the stinging sensation had disappeared and Emma looked at her wrist to see nothing but a small scar from the cut. She only presumed that there was a small scar on her forehead to. "Yeah thank you." Emma smiled "Your welcome love."
Scabior pulled Emma so her head was resting on his shoulder. Scabior could feel her breath on his neck and it sent shivers down his body. Emma closed her eyes, they stung for some reason. It was like she had been crying and her eyes had become dry but she hadn't been crying today or so she thought.
Scabior held her back with one hand so she wouldn't fall off of him and with the other had he teased Emma with her hair. He picked up a lose strand and brushed it across her face and down to her neck. Emma laughed; she was extremely ticklish under her neck.
Scabior took the opportunity to properly tickle her with his fingers. Emma burst out laughing and wriggled around on Scabior. "Please stop. P-please we are going to fall!" Scabior smirked. And like Emma said Scabior fell off the back of the log and onto to the floor. Emma fell on top of him and they both started laughing.
Emma rolled off of Scabior and they turned to each other and smiled. Scabior gently gave Emma a peck on the lips. Emma blushed and was about to say something but was interrupted by grayback saying, "Scab, we are back I hope we aren't interrupting anything." Emma quickly got off the floor and stood up. She backed away from Grayback and stood in silence. He terrified her.
