Wow! I was really overwhelmed by the number of reviews I got! To answer a question, they are squires… I guess. Anyways, I wanted to get the next one out quickly so I didn't write too terribly much. Hey, it's just the way I write. (More like how I type, which is by the way incredibly slow.)
Disclaimer- no characters belong to me… yada yada. PLEASE R/R!! I'll write more soon! Love you all!
Kel
didn't feel up to study group, but she really needed to talk to
Cleon. She walked into the library and saw Cleon sitting at a further
end of the table. "Good. At least we can get some privacy."
She thought. However, Neal wasn't sitting to far away.
Just then,
Neal looked up and saw her. He smiled the smile that always made her
melt inside. He waved her over to an empty chair next to him. "Gee,
I sure would love to sit there." The seat was inviting,
especially with Neal's arm placed casually around the back of the
chair. Regretfully she gave him a look that told him that seat would
remain empty tonight.
She walked over to sit next to Cleon. As
she sat herself down, Cleon looked up, startled. He recovered quickly
and said, "Hello my dewdrop. These past moments have been like
going without water for days." Everyone chuckled, all except for
Neal. Kel rolled her eyes and smiled. Everyone started working again.
Kel's face suddenly became serious. "Can we talk?" she
asked, a bit of pleading in her voice. Cleon gave her an unreadable
look. He glanced at Neal who was looking at them with a questioning
stare. "Ok, but lets go somewhere more…private." They
both rose from the table.
Neal had been watching Kel since she went to sit with Cleon. When they both rose from the table he became even more curious as to what was going on between them. He had a hunch that Cleon really liked Kel. "Is Kel starting to feel the same way?" he thought. Then a bigger question arose in his head. "Am I…….jealous?"
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kel
and Cleon found a small table a little ways away from the group. "You
sounded just like me when I wanted to talk to you." Cleon said.
Kel took a deep breath. "Cleon, I really like you and I know you
would make me really happy…"
"But…" Cleon
interrupted.
Kel sighed and looked down at her hands and said, "I
want to make sure there isn't anything……. there… with Neal.
But, sometimes I think that he's so stupid not to realize… and then
I think I'll be waiting forever…"
Cleon nodded. "I
understand Dewdrop." He put his hand under her chin and tilted
it up so she was looking at him again. "I'll wait for you,
because I know, in the end, you'll come back to me."
Kel
paused. "I'm sorry Cleon; I just love him to much." Cleon
didn't say anything. He simply got up and walked back to the study
group. Kel followed him and went to sit by Neal.
