Silent Secrets
Disclaimer: I do not own Escaflowne!! Only the characters I made up myself!! If I had owned it, thing would have gone different. (Hitomi stays, Folken survives, Celena and Dilly seperate.) So, now that that is settled and that Hitomi has reunited with her brother, the plot is probably going to become a bit more rushed and maybe violent. You'll just have to read and see for yourself. ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!
Chapter 15: The fun in-between
Dinner had been really funny. Rubeus had told them stories about some of the advisers in Hearim and Van had come to the conclusion, that they were as worse as his or even more, but of all they seemed to be totally stupid. They had arranged a ball for the prince when he had been 12 years old and all Ladies and Princesses had been over 16 years old and that all without telling the king. He had been "not amused" (from the English queen *g* ) and made them run around the castle 5 times with him on his horse behind them.
The rest of the evening had also been very entertaining and Rubeus, of course, had to pester Van about loving Hitomi and when there would be wedding bells. Half the time Van had it really hard to hide his blush. Dilly had already made up a challenge between himself and Rubeus for the next day and Van prayed that it wouldn't rain that night.
It was late at night, when Hitomi and Van were lying together in bed, this time Van's, talking: (DON'T YOU THINK DIRTY NOW!!!) Van, did you also noticed Dilly staring the whole time at Celena? It looked kind of funny.
Yeah, but Celena stared right back when she thought he wasn't looking. This has been going on like that for already 3 and a half years. They are both to shy and thick headed to admit each other their feelings, although Dilly's .ahem. advisers, if you want to say so, are also pestering him to marry.
You poor guys defiantly don't have it easy. I would have probably thrown them all out already.
How many times, do you think I would have liked to do that? But I can say, that I am rather nice to mine. Dilly normally threatens to kill them single bare handed about two or three times per week. You should see their faces after such a threat. And if they make any decisions, Dilly just ignores them if it doesn't sounds good enough.
That really sounds like our good old Dilly.
Don't let him find out you said good old or he'll go of like an overdrive Guymelef.
Hhhhmmmmmmmmmmm..
They lay there for a while just enjoying each other's presence. Van had his arms rapped tightly around Hitomi's waist and she was drawing little circles with her fingers on his chest, her head in the crook of his neck.
Hitomi? I know something is worrying you. Is it about that prophecy?
Yeah. I just can't get it out of my head. Who should be that evil clan your mother was talking about? Do you think we know them?
It wouldn't surprise me very much. But we can't make any to rushed conclusions. If they are as evil as mother told us, we'll have to be very careful. You know what's bothering me also? That the King of Hearim arrived here so suddenly and that he didn't tell us, what those uncalculated happenings were he mentioned. And Esmeralda has also been looking even grimmer than usual.
It's all to confusing. *Yawn* But I think, going to bed now wouldn't be such a bad idea. Night Van. Hitomi gave Van a kiss on the nose and was about to get up to go to her own room, but he rapped his arms more tightly around her petit frame and crushed her body to his, there lips barely millimetres away from each other.
Is that all I get for this night?, asked Van with a sheepish grin. Before Hitomi could answer he had locked his lips with hers and her mind went mush. All she could do was kiss him back as his tongue entered her mouth. It was a feeling like fire that started in her belly and quickly spread all over her body. Hot. So hot. Burning hot. They both could not think anything; just enjoyed the feeling of their bodies pressed so tightly together. When Van stopped the kiss, because of the lack of oxygen, and opened his eyes, Hitomi's eyes met him. They were dark and gazed with passion as were his probably as well. But now was not the time. Van pulled her even closer to his body not wanting to let go, but he had to. She pulled back and softly kissed him one final time before getting up and making her way to her own room. Van stayed in the position he had been lying with Hitomi for a some more time, then rolled over and fell asleep with a huge grin on his face.
Dilly: "Whoa! That was one tough fight you gave me there! Why didn't it rain?"
Van: "Well Dilly, if it had rained, Hitomi would have likely thrown another mud-ball at you. And thanks to it not raining, you had to fight fair *g*"
Dilly: "You keep out of this, Vannie! Anyhow, did you enjoy our match Rubeus?"
Rubeus: "Yeah! It was exhausting, but good. My bones will probably hurt for at least 5 days *groan*."
Van and Dilly started to laugh at the last comment from Rubeus. The combat between Rubeus and Dilly had been very long and most time it seemed like they were even, but Dilly had won it through a tiny failure Rubeus had made in the end. They made jokes about this and that until Rubeus finally asked the question, which had been going around in his mind the whole time: "But now tell me, Dilly. What's up with you and Celena and how long has that been going on between you two?"
Dilly went even redder than a tomato: "I don't know what you are talking about. There never was something between us!"
Van: "Now Dilly. All those years I have know you and Celena; you two have been staring at each other when you thought the other wasn't looking. Don't tell me you're to shy to admit her your feelings?!?"
Dilly: "Ummmm. well, you see. I. we. duh. All right, all right. I give up! I really do like her, but she probably doesn't feel the same way."
Van: "Are you mad!?! Of course she likes you! Just look at the way she blushes every-time you're around her and those glances she's shooting at you. you could write a whole damn book about them!"
Rubeus: "I've maybe not been long enough around you guys, but she seems to like you a lot! Why don't you just tell her? You know. take her for a walk in the garden or something romantic. she'll totally like it!"
Dilly: "I don't know, but maybe it is worth a try. I'll be going now and sleep over it. And don't argue that it is still in the middle of the day! It's the best time I can sleep."
Van: *mumbling*"Yeah, because at night, you think to much about Celena and burning something. "
As Dilly left to head for his quarters Merle came dashing around the corner and Van saw with some amusement, that Rubeus face seemed to lighten up at the sight of her and he nearly fell over his own feet. Merle: "Hey you two! How was the fight? And did you see Hitomi? Is everything okay with you, Rubeus? You look kind of dazed out."
R: "Wh-hat? Ah, just thinking about something. And as for Hitomi, the best man to ask that question is Van and probably her future husband."
V: *blushing madly* "Will you PLEASE stop that! I could say the same about you and Merle. *Merle and Rubeus blushing madly, but only Van noticing it* Hitomi told me she wanted to look something up in the library."
Just as the words left his mouth, Van heard a faint gasp in his mind. It was Hitomi: Oh my god! This can't be real!!!
Hitomi? You're okay? What's wrong?
I think you better see that for yourself Van. Please come as soon as you can to the library!!
I'm as good as there.
Merle: "Van? Is something wrong? Was it Hitomi?"
Van: "Yeah, she wanted me to come right away to the library. She sounded really shocked."
Rubeus: "We're coming with. I just hope, my little sis is okay."
All three made their way as quick as possible to the library. When they got there, they saw a horrified looking Hitomi standing at a table with two rolls of rather old looking parchment and a very heavy looking book. Hitomi? What happened?, Van now sounded really worried at the expression she wore on her face. She turned to look at him and completely ignored the other two also standing there. She only pointed with her index finger to the two rolls of parchment and the book. Van read them carefully and his face also went pale.
Rubeus: "What's the matter with you two? Don't you feel well?"
Rubeus didn't get any reply from his question and Merle looked totally lost. Van could only stammer out four words: "Th-th-this c-c-can't be t-t-t-tr-true."
HA! Another cliffhanger for all you guys who also drive me insane with YOUR cliffhanger!! Mwahahahahahahaaaaaaaaa! What has Hitomi found out and what will happen then? Well, I know it, 'cause I already got it fixed up in my head, but you poor guys will just have to wait a little longer. I'll post again ASAP!! Promise!! And as already told, it'll take a while before I post again a new chappie at my new story "As long as I live". Until we meet again!!! CIAO!!!!!!!!!
Disclaimer: I do not own Escaflowne!! Only the characters I made up myself!! If I had owned it, thing would have gone different. (Hitomi stays, Folken survives, Celena and Dilly seperate.)
