Disclaimer- Not Mine, I really hate writing these stupid things.
Author Notes- Here we go Chapter 4. Thanks to everyone for reviewing. Also, I'd like to ask if anyone would be interested in becoming a beta reader for these stories, if you are, email me privately. Oh, and to
Robinyj, Longer chapters wouldn't kill me, but it would mean it would take longer and longer for the next chapter to come out. If its written in short doeses like I'm doing, you get new chapters quicker and more frequently. ;) So there you go, go, read the chapter.
When We Get to The South
Chapter 4- I Can't Bear to Tell You (Diego's POV)
"So, are you going to tell us what that's all about?" I look up at Manny who is looking intently down at me.
"No." I reply flatly.
"No?" Sid repeats disbelieving.
"That's right, no." I reply, suddenly finding myself exhausted.
"I think we deserve an explanation." Manny replies.
"You do." I agree. "I'm just not ready to give you one." Manny frowns and I force back a sigh.
"Will you tell us eventually?" Sid asks.
"Yeah, but right now, I can't." Manny nods reluctantly. And I try to position myself where I'm no longer in pain. Its not working how I'd like however.
"Where were you anyway?" Sid asks suddenly.
"Hunting." Manny replies before I can. I look at him surprised and he simply looks back at me.
"I think we should all try and get some sleep." I say finally, breaking the stalemate with Manny by looking away. "He won't be back tonight."
"You sure?" Sid asks, attempting to stifle his yawn.
"Positive." I reply, keeping my eyes in the dirt. I can't bear to tell them why I won't tell them what's going on. I can't bear to tell them the reason this Saber is following them.
"Okay." Sid yawns again and curls up near Manny. Manny slowly eases down and he watches me guardedly for a long while.
"What?" I finally ask, meeting his eyes.
"I don't like the fact you won't talk to us." Manny says lowly.
"Its not that I won't, its that I can't." I reply evenly, hoping he'll just let it go.
"Why can't you?" Manny pushes.
"I just can't." I reply defeated. Manny averts his eyes then.
"Fine, we'll talk later." He murmurs. "Good night."
"Good night ." I reply quietly.
******************************************************************************************
After a restless night, we've started traveling again . I held back, bringing up the rear. Sid keeps glancing back at me nervously, and Manny barely looks at me at all. When he does however, only one thing I can see in his eyes. Mistrust. I limp along, lost in my own thoughts. A noise suddenly catches my attention and I stop cold in my tracks. I tilt my head to the side and listen intently. There the noise was again, what was it, and where was it coming from?
"Diego?" Sid calls back. I don't reply and listen a little harder. I'm still not sure what direction that noise came from, but I can be certain of one thing. It isn't going to be good.
"What's wrong?" Manny asked turning to look at me. I glance up at the two.
"Did you hear-" My sentence is never completed as I'm suddenly knocked clear off my feet.
Okay, chapter four done. Lemme know what ya thought please. Again, I ask, if anyone is interested in being a beta reader for me, please contact me privately.
