(_Will_)
Ah, that truly was the best night of my life. And I hope this day might be just as sweet. I'm awake first, and I look at Lyra, who is curled up against me. She's still asleep. I close my eyes, trying to paste this moment in my mind forever. I look at her again, and put my arm around her. She's grown so beautiful. She was so young when we had to part. Now, she looks like the wisest creature alive. And the most beautiful..I stroke her cheek and she begins to stir.
"Oh..Will? Will." she says and looks at me with those ocean blue eyes. I can see past the depth. She tries to sit up, but her body isn't fully awake. She lays her head back on my chest and looks into my eyes. I feel a sting of pain. I have six days left with her..No. I'm not going to think of that now. "Lyra." I say and kiss her forehead. She looks dazed.
"Lyra, are you alright?" I ask and she looks at me and smiles. "I'm fine," she says in a hoarse voice. I shake my head, she's sick. I look down at Pantalaimon, who looks dizzy. Kirjava and I exchange glances.
I bite my lip and gently push her up off of me. I stand up and look around. It looks as if it might storm, so I help Lyra up. "Lyra, we need to find some shelter." I say gently. She nods and tries to take a step. Something is very wrong...She looks as if she might blackout. I rush to her side and pick her up. Lyra protests immediately. "No. No. Will, I can..I can walk." I stroke her hair and look back at Kirjava, who has the weak Pantalaimon in her mouth. "Lyra, you're sick. And I'm going to take care of you." I say and she sighs, knowing I won't give up. I hold her close to my heart as I walk out of the garden with Lyra in my arms. She guides me through Oxford, telling me where to go, until finally, we reach St. Sophia's School for Girls. Heh...What now? How am I supossed to just waltz in there, carrying Lyra. It's a school for girls...Oh well. They'll live. I casually walk in and it's deserted. Lyra smiles and tells me to go up the staircase. Kirjava walks along side me, with Pantalaimon still in her mouth.
I walk up the spiral staircase slowly, until we reach the 2nd story. She points to a door and I slowly open it. I kiss her hot forehead as she trembles and I walk in.
^!Lyra!^
Oh, I just feel so terrible...but I bet I'd feel worse if Will wasn't holding me. I feel so dizzy. He lays me on the bed and Kirjava does the same with Pan. "Thank you," I whisper, and everything goes black.
Short....heh..Sorry. Again.
