I guess I should point out that the events of the previous chapters happened during the year Zarina was away. This chapter is set during the spring after Zarina has returned so Cindar has never seen Zarina before.

Fawn was with her friends which now included Zarina, they were at Tinks place talking about diffrent things, that was until someone brought up the last Pixie Hollow games and then everyone fell silent.
"Um why did you guys stop talking?" Zarina asked.
"it's just that... it's just that one of our friends who was at the Pixie Hollow Games, well he's" Sil said coming close to tears.
"He's stuck on a island somewhere in the ocean" Fawn said with no emotion.
"Yea that" Tink said.
"Fawn whats wrong you loved him didn't you?" Iridessa asked confused.
"Yea well he changed on that island, what he became, it wasn't the person that I loved.
A while past before anyone decided to say anything.
"How do you think he's doing?" Rosetta asked them.
"I don't know I just hope he's alright" Sil said.

The night is dark. The water was cold as a sparrow man crawled out of the water with exhaustion. He had fallen from the sky not to far from the shore and had to swim the rest of the way. This beach was familiar. The sparrow man had on ripped leaf clothing that was drenched from the seawater. He was tired but started to walk into the forest of Pixie Hollow. He wasn't sure how long he walked for or where he was but he didn't care he knew where his final destination was.
After what felt like hours of walking he found himself staring at the Home Tree (not to be confused with the Pixie Dust Tree) where a lot of the fairies live. He looked up in aw at the familiar site.
"I'm home" he said.

"I don't know about you guys but I can't wait for the spring festival" Tink said excitedly.
"What is this Spring Festival I've heard the fairies down at the depo talk about it I'm not 100% sure on it" Zarina said.
"It's like a dance that celebrates Spring, it's always a huge festival that pretty much everyone goes to, it's at the top of the Pixie Dust tree" Tink explained to Zarina.
"Sounds fun when is it?" Zarina asked.
"In about a week" Tink said.
"It's getting late guys I'm gonna go home now cya tomorrow" Vidia said walking to the door.
"It is getting late we should all head home now" Tink said.

The sparrow man was walking towards the steps to climb the home tree when he saw some fairies leave Fawns place. He jumped behind a bush to take to hide from them and wait for them to pass. After they finally were gone he once again made his way up the steps.
He finally came to the door but just stood their, he was nervous what was he going to say, he decided to worry about it and just knock on the door. He put his hand up to knock but froze. After waiting he shacked his head and knocked. Soon the door started to open and their stood the brown braided hair fairy that he loved. Fawn looked unsure at what she was seeing the sparrow man was very unfamiliar. Then it clicked she knew who he was.
"Cindar?" Fawn asked.
"Yea, it's me Fawn, I'm back, can I come in?" Cindar asked.
"Why did you come to me?" Fawn asked still blocking the door.
"Because I love you that's why" CIndar said.
"But I don't love you" Fawn said.
"What, why?" Cindar asked confused.
"Because you changed, on that island you changed you became angry and you had no emotion for anyone" Fawn angrily.
"So that's it, fine I'll go, but I still love you" Cindar said then walked off back down the stairs to the base of the tree.
After he was gone Fawn sat on her couch with her knees up to her chest. She didn't know what to think, she didn't think Cindar would come back, she started to cry over it and she didn't know why, maybe deep down she still had feelings for Cindar, she didn't know.

Cindar started walking again he knew one place where he was always welcome. It was very late by the time he got to Silvermists house so he decided that she wouldn't care walked on in and fell asleep on the couch.
Silvermist woke up to the sun shining on her face. She got up and put on her usual blue dress and walked into the main room of her house. What she didn't expect see was Cindar sleeping on her couch. She wasn't sure if what she was seeing was real.
"Cindar?" Sil asked him.
He didn't respond as he was in a deep sleep. Sil nudged him and he woke up.
"Cindar is that you?" Sil asked hoping it was.
"Yea it's me" he said.
Overcome with joy Sil threw herself at him and gave him a big hug. Cindar returned the favor and hugged back as well.
"I've missed you so much" Sil said still hugging him.
"It's a better reception than what I got from Fawn that's for sure" he said.
"You've already been to see Fawn?" she asked sitting down on the couch.
"Yea I went to see her last night" he said sitting down next to her".
"She wasn't that thrilled to see me" he said.
"I thought she loved you" she said surprised at what he just said.
"Used to , not anymore" he said.
"Don't worry about Fawn" she said.
Sil then started to look into his eyes.
"Yea Sil I guess your right, like always" he said.
"Its just that" Cindar was cut short.
Sil turned his head and kissed him on the mouth.
"I've wanted to do that for so long" she said with a smile.
Cindar looked at her in shock he didn't know what to say.
"How long?" Cindar asked.
"Ever since the island, I don't know what it was but, I can't explain it" she said.
"Sil It's just that I still love Fawn, even if she doesn't love me anymore" Cindar said looking at the floor.
They sat their for quite some time before thinking of what just happened.
"Come on, the others will want to see you" Sil said.
Cindar agreed, they left soon after to go see the rest of the group but Cindar was still kinda confused about what had just happened. Did he really still love Fawn.
