(a/n Just because I'm thinking of quitting writing because I don't like
what's changing round here I couldn't leave this story without letting Cael
kiss her at least once. Who knows what will happen even if I do quit
writing it might still work out in the end.)
I just want you all to know thank you!! All the people who read my stories all the people who reviewed, I just want you to know that you were all great and for that I thank you. *Gets all emotional and runs of crying* I love you guys!!!! *Sob, sob*
Remember Me
The Truth Comes Out
Kel woke up in Cael's arms. She felt surprisingly safe. This felt right to her. Being with Cael. The memories of last night flooded back to her. The attack, Cael helping her. Cael holding her. Cael whispering something to her when she was almost asleep. What was it he had said? 'Someone really does care?' Kel thought he had said that but she wasn't sure, last night was a bit hazy when it came to words.
Cael stirred and woke. He looked at her and smiled but didn't let go. "Are you feeling better?"
Kel nodded slightly, then buried her head against his chest trying not to cry. "I'm not great." She whispered, "I'm scared about what happened. I just thank the goddess that they didn't manage to do anything. I'm so glad you came."
He smiled again but it was a sad one. "I was worried about you. I thought that they we might have been to late to help."
She shook her head, "You came just in time. I knew you would. You wouldn't have left me."
"I would never leave you Kel." He whispered arms tightening. He pulled them both into a sitting position. "I care about you too much to leave you."
Kel pulled away and looked at him wide eyed. "What are you saying?" She whispered heart thudding.
"I." He shook his head, "Never mind, it doesn't matter. All that matters it that you're safe." Kel could see an emotion in his eyes but she couldn't read what it was. She just sighed and shook her head.
"Are you hungry?" He asked.
"Yes." Kel replied suddenly realising she was starving. She hadn't had breakfast because she'd been feeling so hung-over. She hadn't had lunch because that's about the time that she'd been attacked and she'd been too much of a wreck to even think about having dinner.
"We can sit with Titch if you want. He was incredibly worried about you." Cael said gently. "You had us all worried."
"I didn't ask to get attacked. I didn't even start the fight." Kel said then she whispered, "Oh Cael it was horrible. I'm so glad you came."
He hugged her again, "Hey." He whispered, "Come on you're safe now. Once we've eaten I'll take you back to the palace and I'll tell them what happened and then they'll make sure that you'll be safe when I have to go. I promise though I'll come back."
Kel wrapped her arms around his waist, "Don't tell them, and don't leave me. I don't want to be alone just now."
"Okay Kel." He whispered. "I won't leave you. I promise." Her arms tightened for a second then she let go. She looked tired and upset.
"Thank you." She said then she seemed to perk herself up again, "Lets get something to eat shall we?"
"Yeah come on." He pulled her up and put an arm around her waist. She didn't seem to mind too much. They walked down the stairs together. Titch was at the bar staring into space. He jumped when Kel said hello.
"Kel!" He said loudly, his expression all about relief. "I'm so glad you're alright. I was worried." Cael nodded.
1 hour later.
Kel was talking to Cael and Titch. She was smiling and feeling much better than she had before. Cael still had an arm around her waist. Kel liked it there. She wanted it to stay there. Too soon though Cael was telling her that she had to go back to the palace.
Kel really did not want to go. She didn't want Cael to leave her and she didn't want the daughters at the convent to know. Cael insisted though that they had to tell them otherwise something else might happen to upset her and they wouldn't know what had happened.
He also promised that he wouldn't leave the palace until she was safely back in her room. As they waked up to the palace they didn't talk. Kel was unsure though, she didn't want him to get caught by the guards, and after all he was The Rogue. She told him this and he laughed easily and said.
"No need to worry 'bout me I'll be fine after all nobody knows who I am except you and George."
Kel wasn't so sure but she let it go. As they walked through the giant doors Kel noticed a daughter bustling round looking rather angry. She recognised her to be Daughter Moonshine one of the nicer ones. Kel pointed her out to Cael. They both walked up. Cael's arm still firmly around her waist.
When she saw them she cried "Keladry Of Mindelan!! Where on earth have you been! You've had me worried sick!" She saw Cael, she saw Cael's arm around her and her eyes narrowed. "And who is this." Before Kel could give the convent daughter a snappy answer Cael butted in.
"My name is Cael. I looked after Kel last night when she'd been attacked." Cael must have seen the look in the daughters eyes because he said, "I am a friend. I would never, never take advantage of her." Kel looked down. She should of known what the convent daughter was thinking.
This seemed a good enough answer for her because she began clucking and worrying about her saying things like, "You were attacked oh how horrible!!" After she'd done with Kel she began to apologise profusely to Cael for the trouble and saying how grateful she was that he had got there in 'time'.
Eventually she said that Kel should go to her rooms and that she'd tell the other girls and Daughters to leave her alone. Cael told the Daughter Moonshine that he'd 'escort' her to her rooms. He did have a bit of an arterial motive though. He wanted to tell her how he felt.
By the time they got t her rooms Cael was getting twitchy. He wanted to tell her how much he cared for her he really did, he wanted even more for her to tell him that she felt the same way. That she loved him and cared for him. But who was he kidding? It was a popular saying with The Rogues when they fell for nobles. Like must wed like. (a/n now where have you heard that before?)
Kel noticed his nervousness and asked him point blank what was wrong. He simply said that it was nothing he was just a bit jumpy. They talked for a while Cael getting jumpier and jumpier. He didn't think he could do it he didn't think he could tell. He didn't want her to tell him that he'd gone and ruined everything by saying those three words. I love you.
He didn't think he could cope without her friendship. He needed her. He really did. Finally he told that he had to go. Which she didn't want. Really didn't want.
"No Cael you can't go you promised me you'd stay. You can't!" Kel was saying. She sounded upset.
It was now or never. Cael would really liked to chose never. He didn't though. He crossed the room in one swift movement.
He kissed her. He pulled away and said very softly. "Kel I love you. I promise that I will come back. I promise. I'll never leave you after this." With that he turned and walked down the hall leaving a shocked Kel behind him.
Angel Of The Storms is currently nowhere to be found at the moment so I the disclaimer guy will be doing this bit. As Angel is currently wondering what's going to happen to her and whether she's going to keep writing or not she needs you to tell her what to do she's never been very good at making decisions. *Angel Of The Storms walks back in* Hey!!! I heard that!!!
