Here goes my first Chapter. I actually wanted to post it with the previous one but choose against it. I really really hope you would like it. If not then just let me know. I kinda like those Royal stuffs. So here we go.
Tyson might look slightly more mature and Hillary a little more sweet. And you guys make a guess is it a KaiHil story or TyHil?
(Hilary's p.o.v)
"Remember Hilary. The dough has to be perfect. It's gonna be our food for the next two weeks." Tyson reminded me. "Aye aye Captain," I salute him and he responds by ruffling up my hair like a child. He always does that. Treat me like a child. I don't think he'd stop even if I reached the age of fifty.
I've known Tyson my whole life. Whole life meaning after the age of seven. That's one thing about me. I seem to have no memory before Tyson. I don't know where I came from or who my family was. I probably didn't have anyone. Tyson is now my whole world. Whenever I asked him about myself. He would just tell me the same story.
The vampires took his parents as slaves twelve years ago and that they're probably dead. Tyson was alone for two years until he found me lying near the stream we always went to. He was only eleven at the time. He said that I was bruised up and had a big gash on my head and he had no heart to just leave me there.
He thought about it but just couldn't seem to do it. So he brought me to his house and nursed me back to health. When he asked me about my family and home, I couldn't answer him. So he just let me stay and now here we are.
Honestly, though, I was never really satisfied with his answer. He didn't have much himself.
Why burden himself by taking in another person?
He literally had to double his resources just to keep us alive. Well, maybe he was just young and didn't care. Whenever I tried digging deeper he'd feel uncomfortable and I'd take that as my cue to stop asking. Maybe he thought I'd leave him.
Whatever the reason was, he still saved my life and I'm forever indebted to him. I love him like the brother I never had and I'd do anything to make him happy. Anything. He always filled the emptiness in me and protected me from any harm. About my family, I started to believe that they were also killed by vampires.
"Hey! You done? I'm going to the stream to cool off. Wanna come?" he asks.
"Yes of course I want to. Just give me 5 minutes."
With that, I grabbed my favorite blue cloak which is very dear to me and I never go anywhere without it.
It was the only thing connected to my past. I had it on when Tyson found me.
...
When we started walking across the market square, it was still kind of crowded with people bustling around, buying whatever they could with what little they had. Just to survive. We weren't even halfway through when I felt a heavy hand on my shoulder .
"Where are you off to sunshine?" One of the castle guards sneered at me. The kingdom is always full of them. They're always making sure there's order and not any one of the rules are broken. "Just the market. To get some carrots. And she's with me." Tyson said coming in the middle. I noticed his hands were fisted. He was controlling his anger. Tyson always gets ticked off whenever someone touched me.
"Oooohh look who's here to save you again, Mr. Tough Guy." He then looked straight at Tyson "I wasn't asking you boy! Now move it!" the knight shouted. A few heads immediately turned our direction. Geez, what was his problem?
Whatever it was, I couldn't let this get out of hand. I knew what Tyson wanted to do. "Please Sir, we were only going to the market to get some vegetables that's all. My friend here is not well. He has a terrible flu so he's a bit cranky. I apologize for his behavior ." I said with a light bow. This seemed to please the stupid Knight.
"See now that wasn't so bad now was it? Back before six!" He barked out then turned to Tyson "You should take some speech classes from her every now and then." He turned to leave.
"And you can take wisdom classes to decrease the number of your stupidity." Tyson mumbles under his breath.
The knight stopped and before he could turn back, Tyson grabbed my hand and sprinted towards the crowd.
The stream which Tyson and I go to is in the forest. Not too deep and not to upfront. But no one really knows it's there. It's Tyson's favorite place to go and now mine as well. I positioned myself under my favorite tree and closed my eyes to relax. I then heard ruffling of clothes. Tyson always goes for a swim to cool off, spreading his hands while wind starts to blow as if controling it and flying with it. He looks so content here. I just remained seated there enjoying the sounds of birds chirping and the faraway waterfall.
For as long as I can remember, I've always felt connected to the trees and the little creatures that live here. It's almost like I could talk to them and they'd answer me. Though I've never actually tried it. That would be just weird. The very thought made me laugh.
"Oh great she's in her wonderland." Tyson's voice cut into my thoughts. "Were you thinking about me again?" he asked.
"You wish." I heard him chuckle at that.
"Hey, Tyson?"
"Yeah?"
"I really love it here."
"You've said that a thousand times Hilary. I also feel the same."
I feel so drawn to everything here. The ground, the trees and animals. I feel more at home here. Like more connected here. I don't know why but being out with nature makes more sense to me than being around people.
Can you understand? Am I making any sense?" I looked at Tyson hopefully. Only his head was above the water. I wanted someone to understand me.
"Yeah... You know what? I think I can understand, I...I totally get you," he gave me a deep meaningful look for a very long time, then he stared straight into my eyes. Suddenly smirked. He got an idea. not good for me...
"You, Hilary Granger, are mentally disabled. I've always suspected your mentality but now I know. For sure." My face began to heat up. I swear I looked like a tomato and glare at Tyson.
"You! How could you be so so so mean?!" Tyson was laughing his lungs out. "I'm leaving. I don't like you!" I yelled back. I have been so embarrassed. Eerrgghh.
"Hey wait! Hilary wait! I'm sorry. Don't be like that. You know you love me!" he whined like a kid. I stopped and gave him the scariest glare I could muster.
"Awww don't be so cute. Wait...are you glaring at me?! Haha. You're even more adorable!" Tyson said going into another fit of laughter.
"That's it. I'm going!" Laughter again. I started my speed walk towards the town. I could heard ruffling of clothes again. A few moments later I was suddenly picked up by the waist. I squealed as Tyson spun me around.
"You know you can't stay mad at me Hils baby," Tyson cooed as he slowly put me down.
"Yes. I. Can." I said with determination but I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. He was right. I do not have the ability to stay mad at anyone.
Seriously, forget about Tyson, even if I really dislike someone, anyone, holding a grudge is a heavy burden to carry.
We walked back hand in hand.
It was almost 6.30 when we got home. We were lucky not to have been stopped by a guard or a knight.
"I was worried sick! WHERE WERE THE TWO OF YOU?! " Mariah shouted. A mass of pink hair made her way to glare a the nevy hair boy. Well he forget to mention Tyson and Hilary have two others became our housemates about four years ago. They couldn't afford a whole other house and the one we currently live in had more than enough room for the five of them.
"Hellooo?!!" she screeched again.
"Just went for a swim Mary. Caaalmm dooowwwnn. Breathe in then breathe out. There we go! Very good." Tyson said putting both hands on her shoulders. I giggled behind him while Mariah only be glared.
Mariah is actually the eldest at age twenty-four. That explains why she takes the motherly role. She has dark pink hair that frames her face perfectly and brings out her sun kissed skin. She also has cat like amber eyes. One other thing about Mariah, she always made sure we were all together and don't get into any trouble. I like her a lot.
Next is a girl named Embriella better known as Emily. Emily is a tall girl with dark hair and pretty blue eyes. She's nineteen. Two years younger than Tyson. Last but not least, a guy named Tyson. His nevy blue hair, tanned skin and stormy eyes made him different and really attractive. How Tyson has such a tanned body even in such a state.
I like to think we're all attractive if it weren't for the fact that all of us were poor and malnourished.
Do you know how hard it is to see a fat human?
Even if there were. They would be the first victims. Tyson thinks vampires like blood with a little more fat. Apparently it gives the blood more taste. he is Seventeen same as me. I loved my small family. Everyone had their own personality. We fought and argued but we stick together.
"Dinner's ready guys!" Mariah announced.
"What did you cook Mariah? Smells good." Emily walked into the small dining area.
"Wow! you say it we have so many bloody options. Like Mariah has so many bloody options. We are going to eat what we've been eating for the past what? Two months?" Tyson said with bored expression, sulking as usual.
"Hey be nice to her Tyson! She's only asking okay. Don't be so gloomy all the time." Hilary replied a little annoyed by Tyson's sulky mood. He just rolled his eyes. I swear he does it better than most girls. He then turned to Emily .
"Sorry Emily, let me make you understand. The only kind of food we're ever going to eat are carrots, cabbages, nuts and if we're really lucky a few fruits. And once in a fucking blue moon, maybe a cute little bunny. That's it! Why? Because it's all we will ever be able to afford! Now since that's cleared up, kiss kiss?"
"Ewww. Let's just eat." She retorted as Tyson pouted.
Tyson and I helped Mariah arrange the bowls on the table. Just as we were going take our seats, Emily signaled for us to stop.
"Who are you?" Tyson looked at me with big eyes. maybe shocked how was I quite for so long! Apparently, I have a hunger for troubles according to THEM not me. Well did I forgot to mention who I am. Do I need to? Red hair, torne pant, dark skin and full of energy. Still don't get it? Never mind I am introducing myself, Loudly..
"I am The Daichi Sumeragi!"
Tyson rolled his eyes, Mariah's voice cut out anything Tyson was to say,"Did you guys hear that?"
