Pain:
Numair raced after Daine. He saw her sitting under a tree crying. He ran up to her. Daine tried to get away but Numair grabbed her and kissed her. Daine tried to slap him but Numair took her hand and kissed it.
'Daine, oh, Daine,' He just kept saying her name. 'Sweet it was all my head. All in my head. I love you, just as much as I always have. I love you, I love you.'
'What?' Daine stepped back.
'I thought I didn't love you because not only was I mad, but I knew what had happened. I knew that I had fond something I could save you from. I was too late to save you and I wouldn't tell myself. I'm so sorry I about threw every thing away. I swear I'll never think anything like that again.' Numair held her close.
'You knew Jacka was the one that had killed my mother?' Daine looked at him. Numair dipped his handkerchief in the stream next to the tree. He gently wiped her eyes and cheeks with it.
'But I refused to believe it. I guess I knew that supconously it had something to do with your past. I guess I interrupted it wrong.' Numair kissed her hair.
'I'm glad you love me.' Diane whispered.
'So am I, Magelet, so am I.' Numair looked down at her. Daine moved closer thinking he was going to bed her. 'Daine I need you to do something.'
'What?' Daine asked.
'Can you remember your first nightmare, or the first time you were scared?' Numair looked her in the eyes. Suddenly Daine's eyes glazed over she knew it automatically.
'I was five.' She said. 'Grandda used to tell me about spiderins and I thought that there was one in my closet. Why?' Daine went back to normal.
'Sweet, Cloud told me something.' Numair sat down with her. This was going to be hard to do.
'Cloud's a dolt today.' Daine replied leaning against him.
'You just proved what she said.' Daine looked up at him. She shook her head.
'What did she say?' Daine asked. She looked worried, like she knew.
'Daine, you can remember every nightmare and every time you were scared. That's not good sweet. The things you're afraid of aren't in the world, they're in your mind.'
'What?' Daine tried to get up. 'Numair that can't be.'
'Daine,' Numair stood up with her. 'You are the source of your nightmares. You are the thing your afraid of. You taught yourself to remember and that's what is going to end up driving you crazy.'
Daine tried to run again. Numair grabbed her waist so he wouldn't hurt her. Diane fought against his hold and broke loose in about three seconds. Numair grabbed her wrist. A voice in his head was telling him to hold tight and not be affected if he hurts her. Numair tightened his grip on her. He felt horrible knowing she was going to get hurt because she was fighting to get free. You're helping her, the voice told him, you might even be saving her. I have to get rid of this, Numair agreed with the voice, she needs to get rid of these memories.
'Let me go!' Daine screamed. 'You're hurting me'
'Daine, I know, but you'll thank me for this.' Numair pulled her close. He hated having to hurt her; he hated the fact that she was scared of him now. Numair let her fight, she needs to.
'I hate you'
Daine began to cry again. Numair brushed back air from her face. Daine kept tugging her arm back. Numair let magic run form his hand to her hair. He needed to put spells on her. He needs to show her how she's hurting herself. If I don't do this now, she'll end up being hurt even worse later, he told himself.
'I know.' He told her. Diane was beginning to go limp in his arms. 'But you'll thank me later Daine. You'll see how much better off you'll be, with out the memories and the nightmares.'
'Leave me alone.' Daine was scared.
'Don't be scared, Magelet. I'll be right here. I'd rather see you safe and hating me than hurt forever and madly in love.' Numair picked her up and wrapped her legs around his waist.
'That's a stupid idea.' Daine whispered.
'you do stupid thing when you're in love.' Numair whispered.
'I'm not glad you love me anymore.' Daine closed her eyes. She was fighting the spell.
'I know, but when you wake back up you'll see what I mean daine. You have to stop remembering every time you were hurt. It's not healthy.' He sat back down with her.
'I wish...' Diane tried to finish but she was to tired.
'That nothing bad ever happened?' Daine nodded. 'I know magelet. Some times I wish nothing bad happened to you too.' Numair kissed her lips just as she fell into the power of his spell. 'It'll all be over soon.'
Numair raced after Daine. He saw her sitting under a tree crying. He ran up to her. Daine tried to get away but Numair grabbed her and kissed her. Daine tried to slap him but Numair took her hand and kissed it.

'I'm glad you love me.' Diane whispered.
'So am I, Magelet, so am I.' Numair looked down at her. Daine moved closer thinking he was going to bed her. 'Daine I need you to do something.'
'What?' Daine asked.
