Chapter Two:
A Night Out
"Zidane...where have you been all this time?" Garnet asked, tears running slowly down her cheek. He wiped them away and looked at her in her eyes.
"I've... I... don't know... but I'll never leave you again," Zidane promised. Silence (besides a few short wimpers from Garnet). And then, it all happened.
Garnets lips came to Zidanes, and a long, passionate kiss took place. Meanwhile...
Vivi wandered up the stairs in the main hall, unable to climb he wall up to Garnets room. As he reached the edge of the stairs, he was noticed by someone.
"Halt! Who goes th... Master Vivi?! How are you? It is an honor to see you again, sir!" Steiner saluted Vivi.
"Hey, Steiner. It's been a while. How are thing around the castle?" Vivi asked him.
"Very well and in order!" Steiner said with pride.
"That's nice. Hey, can I see Dagger?" Vivi asked again.
"I shall show you to her room and ask her myself. Follow me." Steiner commanded, and Vivi followed him closely, making sure he wouldn't get lost.
Back in Garnets room, Dagger and Zidane were... sort of on the bed. Nothing serious, but they were on there =). Moments after they had moved to the bed, a knock on the door showed Steiner's arrival. He opened the door immediately afterward.
"Queen Garne... WHAT IN THE HELL? Er... Sorry, your highness, it appears as if this is not the best time to-" Steiner began to say, but soon he was cut off by Garnet.
"Steiner! Ask to come in from now on!" Garnet yelled at him with embarrassment.
"Yes, your highness." Steiner blushed. "Master Vivi has come to see you, that is all."
Garnet got up off the bed and walked over to the door where Vivi stood, saying "Vivi!" and kneeling down to hug him. Vivi hugged her back softly.
"Hello..." Vivi replied, stepping back after the hug.
"What a reunion, I'm... so happy you came back... and..." Garnet started to say, but tears of happiness just came back to her. 'It's unbelieveable... they came back after all...'
"Dagger, it's still a little light out. Would you mind if we took you out for a little chat?" Zidane asked her politely. 'God I hope she says yes...'
"Why, I'd love too..." Garnet replied. 'Anywhere with you...' "Is that okay with you, Steiner?"
"Er... yes, your highness, you may do as you please..." Steiner replied, still embarrassed.
"Steiner, there is no reason to be embarrassed about what you did, it was an accident, that's all," Garnet told him.
"Thank you, your highness." Steiner looked up ahead at her and nodded.
"Well, shall we be off?" Garnet tilted her head slightly at Zidane when saying this.
"If you wish so, then we shall be," Zidane smiled and held his arm out. She linked hers with his and he escorted her out and into the boat. Just as they started outside, Steiner told Vivi something.
"Don't let them get into any trouble, ok Master Vivi?" Steiner asked him.
"Well, ok, I won't." Vivi replied. He straightened his hat and turned from Steiner and jumped into the boat. The ferry took them across the water and into the town.
"HAVE A GOOD TIME!" Steiner yelled, waving after them.
"We will!" Garnet waved back to him.
As the boat arrived at the other side, Zidane allowed her to go first. He followed her, and Vivi followed behind them.
"So, do you go into town often?" Zidane asked her curiosly, but more to start a conversation.
"Of course, I want the people to think I care for them," Garnet said to him. 'Just as I care for you, Zidane.'
"Well, thats very nice of you," Zidane smiled. Garnet gave him a playful shove, and Zidane knew better than to shove back to the Queen, especially in public.
Garnet was dressed quite casually, in her orange outfit she had worn on their adventure. She wore it around the castle where only the officials would see her, and her pearl white dress when she went to public events. She walked casually, and greeted anyone she knew along the way.
"So, where are we going?" Garnet asked.
"Not sure really, I figured you wanted to get out of the castle for a while," Zidane said.
"Well, I guess I'm sort of in it alot, rarely ever getting out..." Garnet replied, thinking. 'Where are you taking me?'
As if reading her mind, Zidane said, "Vivi and I found a beautiful spot to talk on our way here to Alexandria. It isn't too far out of the town area."
"How far away is it?" Garnet asked, not wanting to go to far away.
Vivi still followed behind the two, feeling ignored. Garnet, now realising Vivi had come with them, said,"Hey Vivi, why the long face?"
"I'm just thinking..." Vivi replied. He suddenly remembered one of Zidanes sayings, 'Don't think too much.'
Within 20 minutes of leaving the town area, they reached their spot. On top of a cliff, you could see for miles around. Beneath you was a beautiful lake, shining under the birght stars. And, ahead of them, Alexandria shone birghtly, like a lightbulb in a dark room.
"Oh my god... this place is beautiful!" Garnet said with excitement. She stared across the lake at her kingdom. 'It's amazing...'.
Zidane made his way down on his stomach and inched up toward the edge of the cliff where Garnet stood. He invited her to lay down.
"Dagger (I hope she doesn't mind me calling her that anymore), I wanted to talk to you about some things..." Zidane asked. Vivi made his way up to the cliff and laid down, leaving enough space of Dagger to lie down when she wants.
"It's so beautiful..." Dagger stated.
"Yea, we know, and you can see it the rest of the night while we talk," Zidane looked up at her and grinned. Dagger laughed and sat down on the grass, leaning back on her hands. And the conversation started...
