Chapter Four.



Kay's P.O.V



Me and Kit walked back to our room. I was grinning. That was a good work out. And very fun. I also enjoyed fighting.

"Kit, I'm gonna go take a bath."

"Okay." he looked at me completely innocent.

I glared at him.

"Okay, okay, I won't watch." he turned away. I went into the bathroom and got undressed as I ran the water. I turned the water off and stepped in. It was hot and steamy. Refreshing after a battle. I sighed with pleasure and relaxed into the water. Even though I am and Ice mage, I still appreciate hot bathes. I washed myself and pulled the plug to drain the water. I dried myself off and wrapped a towel around my waist. I opened the door and walked out casually, completely forgetting that Kit was there.

"KAY!"

"KIT!" I ducked back into the bathroom, but I knew that he would remember what he saw.

"Kit, toss one of my shirts in." I yelled through the door. The door opened a moment later, and one of my shirts was tossed in.

"Thank you." I said. I put my shirt on and sat down on the stone floor, leaning against the door. I knew Kit was on the other side, leaning against the door also.

"Kay?"

"Hm?"

"Sorry."

"It's okay. I forgot you were there. I'm so use to being alone at home." I had been living by myself until I came to the palace.

"Still, I'm sorry. I should have remembered." I opened the door and crawled out. I sat in his lap and snuggled up next to him. He wrapped his arms around me. His fingers crept under my shirt, and rested on my belly.

"I want to be with you forever." he murmured.

"I know you do." I whispered back.

He squeezed me and I snuggled close.



The next morning, I woke up to Kit next to me in bed.

"Kit, out." I grumbled.

"No. It's comfy in here." he grumbled back.

"Kit, now." I said.

"Noooooo I don't wannaaaaaa." he whined.

"Kiiiiiiiiiit, go awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay." I whined back. Two could play at this game.

"You suck."

"Shut up."

"Shut up."

"You."

"You."

"You first."

"You first."

"SHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP!"

"SHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP!"

"Shut up before I beat the crap outta you."

"Shut up before you beat the crap outta me."

"OOOOO! WOULD YOU SHUT UP ALREADY!"

"No, that is inhumanly possible for me."

"Oh. Shut up."

"Oh dog shit on you."

"Well, same to you, and besides, you're not a human. You're an elf."

"Oh, yea, forgot."

"Upid-stay."

"Hey, I know what that means!"

"Ou-yay oo-day?"

"Es-yay." he said proudly.

"En-they ou-yay ill-way under-yay stand-yay is-they. Ut-stay up-yay!"

"O-nay."

"Ou-yay itch-bay."

"Ou're-yay e-thay irl-gay."

"Y-whay I-yay outta-yay!" then Koby and the rest of the gang walked in just as I yelled.

"IE-DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!"

"Kay? Kit?" Kiah looked at us and we foolishly grinned.

"Yes? Can we help you?"

"We need to make a date for when we will meet to discuss Kay's....Cause."

"Sure. When ever you feel like it."

"No. A specific day."

"One year from today."

"What's today?"

"Er....hold on."

"Wednesday. Celestial Light."

"What! Today's Celestial Light!?"

"Didn't you know?"

"I forgot. Oh my gosh! Isn't there a party tonight?"

"I think so..."

"Yea. You goin Kay?"

"Yea! Gotta get ready! Out! All of you!" I pushed them all out, except for Kit.

"So, whatta ya wearin this year? Miss Queen?"

"Just you wait." I went over to my chest of stuff and shuffled through it. "Ah! Found it!" It was a long silver dress. Fairly simple, actually, but it had been my mothers and I treasured it. I turned around and showed it to Kit.

"Hm, I like it. And, I think it would suit you, in all your silvery glory."

"Stop flattering me, Kit. It sounds so, childish. Especially, 'Silvery glory'"

"Well..." I faced the wall, and started to get ready.

Five minutes later, I was in the ball room, all eyes at me, as I was obviously, late. I blushed. I was holding Kit's hand, just for reassurance.

"Finally made it, I see." one of the girls from the Fire Hall, who was in my class, sneered.

"Remember me? Fiona? Good. You should. One day, I'll get you good. For Miles." she walked away, and we just continued to a little table in the corner. By that time, everyone had gotten over my 'dramatic entrance'.

"Kit, I'm tired."

"Already? We just got here!"

"I know, but I'm so..." I fell asleep leaning on him.
