Here's chapter 25, I hope you like it. Sorry I haven't updated in a while. Thank you for your reviews I love you guys :) I don't own anything, enjoy.
"Emma, emma wakey wakey beautiful." Emma opened her eyes and saw a blazing fire in front of her. A hand brushed across her face and she flinched as the fingers made contact with the fresh cuts on her face.
Emma sat up and looked at Scabior. "Are you okay beautiful?" Scabior took Emma's hand in his. She was still shaking a little. The blanket had slipped down the upper part of her body and Scabior wrapped it around her again. "Thank you." Scabior smiled and put his arm around her. Emma was still extremely worn out and tired so she rested her head on Scabior's shoulder.
"Oi Theo! You finished yet?" Scabior shouted. Emma jumped but settled back on Scabior's shoulder. "Coming boss." Theo answered. He walked over to the two of them with a bowl and a piece of bread in his hands.
He gave it to Emma, "Thank you." Emma smiled. "Yeah whatever." Theo grunted. Scabior glared at Theo, he coughed and said, "I mean your welcome. Boss you want any?" He asked. "No not hungry." Theo shrugged and gave the rest of the soup to Zane and Louie before he sat down next to Louie.
Emma took her first mouthful of soup. "How is it?" Scabior asked. "Nice." Emma replied. "Are you sure? Because if it is crap I can get Theo to make it again but better." Theo looked up and tensed. "No, no it's just fine, really."
"Well okay." Emma noticed that Scabior had suddenly become extra protective over her, if that was even possible. Maybe it was out of guilt? She wasn't sure.
"Boss, where is Grayback?" Louie asked. Emma tensed and almost choked on the soup that was in her mouth. "He's gone, for good." Scabior tuned to look at Emma and smiled. "Why?" Louie asked. Scabior rolled his eyes and said, "You don't need to know you nosy b****** all right and neither do any of you lot okay. If I hear any of you talking about it behind by back there will be serious consequences."
All three looked down and the floor to avoid Scabior's glaring eyes.
After Emma had finished the soup she felt significantly better. "Emma come with me." Emma was shocked that Scabior had used her name instead of beautiful or sweetheart. He stood up and took Emma's hand, she followed.
Scabior lead Emma into the woods. It was getting dark. "Scabior where are we going?" Emma questioned. Scabior smirked at her and continued to walk. A light shower of snow started to fall but it didn't stick to the still dampened floor.
It seemed like hours they had been walking and it was now almost pitch black except from a glow in the distance. Scabior finally stopped on the top if a large hill. "Scabior where are w-"emma was interrupted. "Look." Scabior moved out of the way and Emma gasped.
The hill over looked a large town. The glow had come from the houses and streetlamps. Scabior sat down and Emma followed. For some reason Emma found it beautiful and strangely romantic. "I have something for you love." Scabior reached into his pocket and pulled it out and gave it to Emma.
It was beautiful. It was a medium length, black chained necklace. In the middle there was a black heart with a pink stone in the centre. "Merry Christmas Emma." Emma couldn't help but smile even though she knew that the previous owner was either dead or in prison. It was the thought that counted.
"It's beautiful." Emma smiled. Scabior took it from her and gestured her to turn around and move her hair. Emma did so and Scabior put the necklace around her. Emma turned back and looked at Scabior. Time had stopped, again. Their eyes connected. It was magic.
Scabior leaned forwards and kissed Emma on the lips. It was like a firework had exploded in her stomach.
It was so quick, just a little kiss. Emma didn't know what had just happened. "Scabior has kissed me so many times before but not like that. No, that was different. It wasn't to make me feel like a play thing or a toy. It was genuine compassion."
When Emma opened her eyes again Scabior had the same look on his face, a cross between confusion and amazement. "What the f*** just happened!" Time resumed again when Emma yawned. She then realized that she was absolutely shattered. Scabior smiled and hugged her. Emma smiled and rested on his lap.
You don't have to do this or anything but I am curious about how you picture the characters in this story. I picture Scabior and Grayback almost exactly how they are in the movie, Emma is medium height with medium length, straight, brown hair and quite thin. I picture Zane as a tall, lanky, young man with straight black hair, emerald green eyes and he has quite an 'awkward' posture (If that's the right word to use) and he's a bit shy. I picture Theo as an average sized man with curly short hair, some stubble and he has poor posture. Finally I picture Louie as a quite short and stocky man, he is quite large and I feel that he is a bit dull and isn't so clever (not to be mean or anything) he has a shaved head and I think he looks most like Vincent Crabbe. There is how I picture the characters. I will say again that you don't have to do this but it would be nice if I could get some feedback as to how you picture them in a review or something. It is entirely up to you. :)
So there you go, I hope you liked it. Please review and tell me what you think. Thank you for reading.
