Chapter 5

Disclaimer: *calls to Duo-chan*

Duo-chan walks in a quiet room, and then is surprised by Angel.

"Missed me," Angel asked, "Please read the disclaimer."

"Alright.  Angel-chan is not the creator or owner of any of

the characters here.  So if you sue her, then well you are pretty dumb

because I just said the disclaimer."

"Thank you Duo-chan!" Angel shouts *kisses Duo-chan*

            We had decided that morning to move ahead.  We were going to the next mountain top, and we were pretty quiet, probably thinking about our love scene back there.  It felt good, like I was reborn.  Lita was walking beside me, each arm folded, and her hands hugging her arms like she had just been violated.  I turned to her and stopped walking.

"Why did you stop?" Lita asked.

"Because you look like somebody just raped you!" I shouted.

"Sorry, I just felt like it wasn't special." Lita stated.

"Listen, I didn't kiss you, you kissed me!" I yelled.

"I know!  And I'm killing myself mentally for it…" Lita faded out.

"Well, I am sorry for being alive!" I screamed.

"I'm sorry for overreacting…" Lita said as she came up to me and kissed me.

            I smiled as we kissed, letting go of everything.  Every bad thought or worry had floated away from my mind for a split second before we ended the kiss.  I looked at her deep, green eyes, and then turned back to walking.  It was a long trip up the new mountain, and I could see how long it would take.  We would have to set up camp in a few minutes and it was already getting dark.

            We walked a couple of yards, and then I decided we should set up camp.  And again, I went through the long process of setting up everything.  And after, I had to walk a little ways to the next creek.  I made sure we were always near a river or creek, or something.  I started to head off, when Lita tugged my arm.

"I want to go with you." Lita explained.

"Okay, this way.  And stay close to me." I ordered.

"No problem." Lita smiled.

            As we walked to the creek, I decided to tell Lita something I've wanted to tell her for a while. 

"Lita, I wrote a poem for you, and I thought you might want to hear it." I implied.

"Sure, go ahead." Lita smiled.

"It's called Declaration:

To sustain my love now,

Would kill my soul,

So I'll make this solemn vow,

To always let you know,

In a silent dream I'll be your voice,

To keep that perfect harmony,

And in your heart make the choice,

To always keep me in memory,

I'll stay beside you,

And forever in your arms,

I'll be wishing that you will be true,

While you are dreaming of the stars." I read to Lita.

"I'm speechless…  It's beautiful.  I don't have one for you, but I promise I will soon." Lita stated.

"That's alright.  I just wanted to let you know how I feel about you." I said.

"Well, I know." Lita remarked.

            We soon reached the creek, and there we got water and twigs for the night.  It was going to be one of those nights where you don't want anything to end.  But you knew it would just as the sun peaked above the hills.  The water filled the buckets we had brought with us, and we tied the twigs to our backs.  We turned in the other direction, and started to walk back to camp.
