^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I found piece of mind, I'm feeling good again.
I'm on the other side,
Back among the living.
Ain't a cloud in the sky,
All my tears have been cried,
I And I can finally say:
Reading quickly, Neal looked for the reason she wrote. Ahh. There it was.
' Neal. I can't believe I did that. I am so sorry. Nobody can compare to you. I realized this when he left me.'
That one line said it all.
~And she believes that she could just come crawling back. Right.~ Neal thought bitterly. He looked up and saw that Kel was looking at him.
"What did she write?" Kel asked, curious. "She wanted to come back, telling me how much she misses me etc., etc.," He answered bitterly.
Kel hugged him around the shoulders. "Yeah. She said that she hoped that I wasn't mad at her. What a load of bull." She said, with a hint of sadness in her voice.
"Well. I know what I'm going to do. Write her and say -'no thanks. I've got Kel. She is, was, and always will be 10 times more than you are." The tall man said, getting up. He did just that while Kel looked on.
Baby, baby stay,
Stay right where you are.
I like it this way,
It's good for my heart.
I haven't felt like this,
In God knows how long.
I know everything's gonna be okay,
If you just stay gone.
"You know, Cleon would've never have been as sweet as you are to me. Sure, the names were ok, but they got annoying. You know what I mean?" She asked him.
Neal smiled. "You mean that?"
Kel mock glared. "Of course. You Meathead."
"Well. I think that we should finish up here and start packing for that little outing. You get what I'm saying." Neal said to her, but Kel was lost in a trance like state.
"Kel? Did you just hear what I said?" Neal asked again, waving his hand in front of her face.
"Hunh? Oh, sorry. I was just thinking about our second year. You know, at Midwinter, when we had that WEIRD conversation about spring and daffodils?" she said, snapping out her dreamland.
Neal looked at her strangely for a minuet or two. "UMMM. Yeah. Oh no you don't. You and Dom. Honestly. NO MORE NICKNAMES."
"Sure- Daffodil." Said Kel as she stood and went to the door. "now. Are you going to start packing or not. I'll get the tent and food and stuff. You start with your clothes. I'll get mine."
"Is Tobe coming with us?" Neal asked, slightly worried.
"No! Why should he?" Kel replied. "Anyway, he's staying with Daine for a while with his training. He has something with Daine's youngest daughter I think." Chuckling, she left the room.
The mage stood and sighed. Then he got down on his knees and pulled out his canvass travel bag. Then he threw in clothes.

Getting all the food and the rest of supplies they would need, Kel headed back to her rooms.
When she opened the door to Neal's room, she surprised him. Catching a fleeting glance of what looked like candles, she grinned.
"Ready? I'll just throw some clothes and stuff in a bag, and then we'll go."
Neal nodded, looking slightly relived. For what, Kel didn't know. A few minuets later, there was a knock on the door. Grabbing her things, Kel went and opened the door. There stood Neal, with a silly grin on his face.
"Let's go!" with that said, he grabbed her wrist, and practically dragged her down to the stables.
Strapping on the packs, and checking one last time that they had everything, they mounted up, and headed out the gates.
They didn't see that there were several people watching them from atop the gates.

"Now Tobe, you're SURE that this is a romantic trip? Not just some hunting trip?" asked one of the figures.
The boy nodded his head furiously. "I even saw him put some roses and candles in his bag."
With this, one of the men roared with laughter. "Laddy me boy, you done me pround. You done me real proud."
When asked to explain, Baron George Cooper of Pirates Swoop did so quite willingly.
They say that laughter is the best medicine. If so, Roald, Tobe, Falerone, George, and Merric will never need to see the healer again.
