If looks could kill Fiona might have been six feet under by now. Those were
the thoughts that were going through Fiona's head at what she was seeing.
Rachael was sitting a few feet away and was glaring daggers at Fiona. Like
if she stared long enough at her, Fiona would just drop dead. 'I can not
believe that he picked her,' thought Rachael as her glares at Fiona
intensified. 'I mean I am so much better than her in every way. So how is
it that he wanted her? Wait a minute. Maybe he didn't want her. Maybe she
forced herself upon him and I just saw it and jumped to conclusions. Yes,
that has to be it. I was getting worked up over nothing,' Thought Rachael
as a small smile worked its to her mouth. 'She thought that she could get
away with it but I saw through her little plan. She must really have
thought that I was that stupid if I believed what I saw. Well I much
smarter than that, and much smarter than her if I was able to see through
that little plan. Well I am much smarter than her as it is so it really
doesn't matter either way,' thought Rachael. 'My question is how Van could
actually fall for such a cheap trick like that? I'll bet that he is waiting
for me right now to come and help him get his mind off that horrible event
that happened to him yesterday,' thought Rachael dreamily. 'I had better go
and see him,' she thought.
"Why is she staring at me like that?" asked Fiona after noticing the death glares coming from Rachael. Moonbay nearly laughed when Fiona asked this question. "What?" asked Fiona wondering what was so funny at that moment. "Absolutely nothing. Ok, so maybe there was something that she might have seen," said Moonbay as she continued to laugh at her friend. "Why? What did she see?" asked Fiona not knowing what was going on. This made Moonbay just laugh even harder at her friend. "Oh come on. Don't tell me that you don't remember what happened last night between you and Van," said Moonbay knowing that she was going to have fun taunting her friend about this for a while. "You saw that?" yelled Fiona as a blush crossed her face. "Sure I did, and so did she. Next time you might want to close the door the rest of the way. People won't be looking in if it is closed," said Moonbay. Fiona blushed even more if it was possible. "By the way I love your impression of a tomato," said Moonbay with another laugh at her very red friend. Moonbay looked over and noticed that Rachael had gotten up from where she was sitting and walked out of the room with a smirk on her face. 'There is something seriously wrong with that girl if she was smiling after what she saw last night,' thought Moonbay after Rachael had walked out of the room.
"Oh Van," said Rachael as sweetly as she could. Van was currently talking to Irvine and Thomas and when he heard his name he turned around and saw Rachael. "What?" asked Van. Thomas and Irvine then walked off not wanting to see how bad this was going to get for Rachael. "I am bored. Do you want to do something with me?" asked Rachael with a fake pout when she said she was bored. "Um. well," said Van not knowing how to say this. "I. can't," said Van knowing that she wouldn't be happy. "Why not? Don't you want to be around me at all?" asked Rachael with another fake pout. "I am kind of busy," said Van knowing that the excuse would get old fast. "You are always busy. All I want to do is spend a little time with you," said Rachael as she got a little closer to him. "I really do have plans for later on today like the last time you asked," said Van getting slightly nervous. 'Why isn't he accepting my offer? I mean he should be happy that it is a reason to get away from that horrible Fiona,' thought Rachael. "Listen. I have to go. I will see you later," said Van before walking off.
Fiona sat in her room in front of a mirror. She was currently running a brush through her hair in an attempt to get some knots out of it. Van and her were going to be going out later in the day so she wanted to look good for it. There was a sudden knock on the door. "Come in," said Fiona thinking that it might be one of her friends. The door opened and in walked someone that she didn't expect, Ashley. "What is it?" asked Fiona noticing that she was just standing in the doorway with a scowl on her face. "What did you do to Van?" asked an angry Rachael. "What are you talking about?" asked a very confused Fiona. "What did you do to him? you had to have done something to him to make him act the way that he has been acting to me. You also had to do something to make him kiss you last night. I wanted to know what you did to him because I know that he wouldn't normally do something like that with someone like you when he can have someone like me," Rachael nearly yelled. "I didn't do anything to him. He just has feeling for me. Is that too hard for you to understand?" asked Fiona upset by the things that she was saying. "You had to have done it," yelled Rachael as she grabbed the collar of Fiona shirt. She then saw something that made her let go of Fiona and the stagger back a few feet. "Wh-where did you get that necklace?" asked Rachael in a very shocked voice. "Van gave it to me," said Fiona as she straightened out her shirt. "No, he couldn't have. You must have stolen it from him. that is the reason that you could have it," said a scared Rachael since she didn't want to admit the truth. "I did not steal it from Van. He gave it to me a few days ago," yelled Fiona very upset by her sudden accusation of stealing it from Van. "No. You had to have. There is no way that he can love someone like you," said a distraught Rachael. "Please get out of my room now," said Fiona. luckily Rachael didn't want to see anyone especially Fiona, and she left the room quickly.
"Is something bothering you Fiona?" asked Van when he turned up at Fiona's room to pick her up for their date. "It's nothing," said Fiona. "Are you sure?" asked Van. "Yes. It is just that Rachael came to my room earlier today," said Fiona slightly annoyed by Rachael. Van merely rolled his eyes when he heard Rachael's name. "What did she say?" asked Van. "She claimed that I had to have done something to you to make you like me, and that there was no way that you could like me normally," said a saddened Fiona. "she is right. I don't like you. You know this. That the truth is that I love you," said Van happily. Fiona was really happy to hear this out of Van. "Thank you Van. That really makes me feel a lot better," said Fiona happily. "No problem," said Van as he bent down and gave Fiona a kiss. Fiona quickly got into the kiss and returned it with just as much love as Van was giving her. They broke it reluctantly because of a desperate need for air. Fiona smiled and hugged Van. "You have no idea how long I have dreamed about something like this with you," said Fiona happily. "Then I am sorry for not telling you a lot sooner," said Van with a smirk on his face. "It's ok. At least you did," said Fiona with a smile on her face. "So, are you ready to go?" asked Van wanting to get their date going. "I am always ready," said Fiona happily. "Then why don't we go," said Van taking her hand and leading her out of the door.
"It is so beautiful out tonight. Isn't it Fiona?" asked Van as he looked out into the night sky. Fiona looked up and saw how nicely the sky looked with all of its stars under the light of the two moons. "Yes it is," said Fiona as a light breeze caught her and blew her hair all around. The way that she was with her hair blowing in the wind and the way the moon shined down on Fiona, Van noticed how much more beautiful she looked. A smile crossed his face as he thought that they were now together as a couple. It was one of the best thing that ever happened to him. "What is it Van?" asked Fiona when she noticed that Van was staring at her. Van blushed a little knowing that he was caught staring at her. Fiona didn't seem to notice it though. "It's nothing. I was just, well. I was just admiring how lovely you looked right now," said Van knowing that it was better to be truthful with Fiona. This time it was Fiona's turn to blush. "Th-thank you Van," said Fiona as she tried to hide the blush. Van only thought that it was kind of cute. "What's the matter Fiona?" asked Van with a smirk across his face. 'He must be enjoying this,' thought Fiona. "Oh nothing Van," said Fiona in an innocent voice. Van knew she had to be up to something. "Um Fiona. what's going on?" asked Van as she started to advance towards him. he knew that if he didn't stop that he would be pushed into a fountain that was right behind him. yet Fiona never stopped. She just kept advancing. 'So that is her plan,' thought Van. 'If I am going to go down then I will at least take her with me,' thought Van with a smirk. Fiona had cornered him to the side of the fountain and she reached out and gave him a light push. He started to fall back but he smirked and grabbed her arm and pulled them both down into the fountain getting the both of them extremely soaked. Van and Fiona surfaced and Van started to laugh his head off. "I can't believe you pulled me in," said an angry Fiona. "You were the one that pushed me in. all I did was take you with me," said a still laughing Van. He stood up and got out of it. "Are you coming? We should get back before we get sick. You especially since you were just sick," said Van as he extended a hand out to her. Fiona looked at it for a second before taking it and getting out of the fountain. The two started to walk away from the fountain before a hand found its way to Fiona's should and it wasn't Van's.
"I wonder how things are going for them," said Moonbay. "I am sure that they are happy. Especially since they are finally able to be together," said Irvine. "I know. They have to be happy. It is the most obvious thing for them since we both know that they love each other more than anything in the world," said Moonbay dreamily. 'I wish I had someone like that,' thought Fiona as she snuck a peek at Irvine.
"Hey there cutie," said a man as he held onto Fiona's shoulder as she struggled to get out of his grasp. It only too Van about a second to realize that the man was drunk. "Hey. Why don't me and you go somewhere," said the man. "No," said Fiona as she struggled to get out of his grasp. "Hey let go of her," yelled Van. "Stay out of grown up matters kid," said the man as he easily knocked Van over. "You are coming with me," said the man as he dragged Fiona off. Fiona did the only thing that she could think of and bit the man's arm. The man hollered in pain and let go of Fiona's arm. She immediately ran over to Van and he put an arm around her. "You ok?" asked Van in a worried tone. "Yeah. I am fine," said Fiona as she latched herself around Van. "Hey give her back. I saw her first," said the drunken man. He went for Fiona but Fiona moved her out of the way. The man stopped and then pulled out a dagger. "Give her to me and I won't have to use this," said the man. "Never," said Van. The man charged at Van but due to Van's heavy drenched clothes it made it hard for him to move. The man managed to get Van but he only managed to but Van's arm. The man came around again and punched Van in the forehead. Van now had a gash on his forehead and a cut on his arm. Things were a bit dizzy for Van but he stood up. Van was now on the ground with the man hovering over him. "You had a chance to live but you refused to," said the man as he was about to bring the dagger down before something hit the back of his head. He then fell to the floor unconscious. "Are you ok Van?" asked Fiona as she dropped a big rock that she had in her hands. "Yes. Thank you," said Van as he stood up. "Lets go before we have anymore problems," said Van as he took Fiona's arm and led her away from the area.
"Does that feel any better Van?" asked Fiona after she had finished putting a bandage over his cut arm. "Yes. It feels much better," said Van with a smile. "Thank you for helping me," said Fiona. "It is no problem," said Van. "You should go get changed Fiona," said Van remembering that they were still in their wet clothes. Fiona responded by merely sitting down right by him in the couch that Van had in his room. "I want to stay right here for now," said Fiona. "Fine then," said Van as he got up and walked towards his drawers. Quickly going through it he pulled out a large shirt and a pair of shorts. "Then at least put these on. It is better than nothing," said Van holding out the clothes, which Fiona took. She went into the bathroom to change while Van quickly changed into something else out in the room. He sat on the couch and waited for Fiona to come. About a minute later Fiona came out and went to sit down next to Van. "That better?" asked Van. Fiona just nodded her head. Fiona was feeling a bit cold and Van noticed this when she shivered. He quickly went to grab a blanket and came back. "Here put this around you," said Van handing Fiona the blanket. "Thank you," said Fiona as she took it. She quickly put it around herself. Van took a seat and Fiona also put it around him. "You need to keep warm too," said Fiona at Van's questioning face. Van smiled at Fiona's kindness. It was quiet after that until Fiona spoke up a few minutes later. "I was scared Van," said Fiona quietly. "When I am around you shouldn't have to be afraid of drunks like them," said Van kindly. "No, not that. I was scared when he pulled out that dagger. I was afraid that he might seriously hurt you or kill you with it," said Fiona as she rested her head on Van's shoulder. Van was really touched by her concern for him. "Hearing that means a lot for me," said Van with a smile as he took Fiona's hand in his. He brought it up to his face and laid a kiss on it. Fiona buried her head in Van's shoulder. "I don't want to lose you. I don't know what I would do without you," said Fiona. Van put his finger under Fiona's chin and lifted it up so that she looked him right in the eye. He then leaned over and placed a kiss on her lips. He pulled away and this time Fiona took a hold of his hand. She held it up to her face. "Kiss me Van," said Fiona as she put his arm around her waist. "Of course," was all Van said before he was brought down into a very heated kiss, a kiss that meant everything to both of them. The next thing Van knew both him and Fiona were laying down on the couch still caught in that heated kiss.
"Why is she staring at me like that?" asked Fiona after noticing the death glares coming from Rachael. Moonbay nearly laughed when Fiona asked this question. "What?" asked Fiona wondering what was so funny at that moment. "Absolutely nothing. Ok, so maybe there was something that she might have seen," said Moonbay as she continued to laugh at her friend.
