Ch.2: I'll Figure It Out
Isabel met Kyle at the Crash down; Liz was working so she came up to them. "Hey Isabel, what can I get you?" "Just coffee and could you also get me some..." "Tabasco." "Yeah." "Kyle, what about you?" "I'll have a coffee and a spaceship Danish." "Okay I'll be right back." Kyle began talking to Isabel, "If you don't mind me saying, you look awful." "Yeah, I didn't get much sleep last night." Liz came back with Kyle's order and Isabel's coffee along with a bottle of Tabasco. "Thanks Liz." "Hey this Danish has sprinkles on it." "Yeah that's why we call it a spaceship Danish Kyle or did you not read the menu?" "Right, sorry about that." "So will that be all?" "Yeah thank you Liz." Liz left and Kyle began talking to Isabel again, "So I take it you and Jesse..." "No! And why would I be even talking to you about that anyway?" "Because I have no life and no girlfriend, okay so why didn't you get any sleep?" "I just keep having this weird dream." "You know Buddha teaches that dreams are a moral of a human's life essence." "What does that mean?" "Well basically dreams can give clues as to how your life was in a past or future life or they don't have to have any meaning at all." "Well when you put it that way things actually make sense." "So do you wan to talk about your dream?" "I'd rather not it's a little... it's a little embarrassing." "Oh I get it, it's an erotic dream." "No! You seriously need to find yourself a girlfriend Kyle." "That I do." "Okay I'm going to go home and try to get some rest since I missed out on twelve hours of sleep." "Okay well then sweet dreams." Isabel smiled, left the Crash down and went back to the apartment. As soon as Isabel laid on the bed she right away fell asleep, her dream returning.
It was midnight and Rath was waiting at the lake, waiting for Vilandra. Five minutes later she met with him. "Hey I was wondering if you would ever show up." "I'm sorry. Zan had guards by my bedroom door and one by my window." "How did you manage to leave the palace?" "I used a little extensive force the guard won't know what hit him until morning." "Vilandra there's something I've been meaning to ask you." Rath got on one knee. "Vilandra will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" Vilandra looked at him and then slowly backed away; Rath stood up. "Was it something I said?" "I'm sorry Rath. Don't think that I don't want to marry you because I do. I can't imagine being with anyone else." "But..." "But what about Zan?" "What about Zan?" "He knows about us Rath. He was so furious with me I'm surprised he didn't have a heart attack. How am I supposed to make myself happy but at the same time make the king happy?" "Sometimes there are moments where you can't. Vilandra you have to put yourself first; lead your own life. You can't let your brother or your father, dictate it for you." "I know but at the same time I can't help but feel that I'm letting them down." "You could never do that. If its one thing I know it's that your happiness does matter to Zan and your father even if they don't show it and Zan is just being stubborn, he's always been like that and he has more of a reason since he's the king." "You're right Rath, about everything I have to put myself first for a change so could you ask me again?" "Vilandra, will you marry me?" "Yes Rath." Rath and Vilandra kissed passionately. "I love you Vi." "I love you too Rath," after that Vilandra and Rath soon began making love to each other.
Once the dream ended Isabel woke up and found Jesse sitting at the edge of the bed. "How long have you been sitting there?" "Just long enough to hear you say the words, 'I love you too Rath'. Isabel what's going on? Isabel sat up in the bed. "Jesse it's nothing it's just this weird dream I've been having you don't have to worry about it, I've got it under control." "Isabel you missed out on twelve hours of sleep, from where I'm sitting things don't seem under control." "Well they are okay so would you quit worrying?" Isabel said as she stormed out of the room. "Where are you going?" "Some place where I don't have to be interrogated."
