Ch10

Hitome walked back to her room, sluggishly. When she got to her room she found Allan there. Even though she hated the idea of being near him, she needed someone.

Instinctively Allan's arms opened and hitome fell in to them.

"You always have me." Said Allan in a soothing voice.

Hitome pulled out of the hug and said "what if I don't want you!"

She ran out of her room, desprite to find van. When she got to his room, hitiome knocked on his door.

"Can I come in??"

"No!" no screamed van. "I don't want to see you again!"

Tears streamed down her face, as she ran as far away from any one as possible.

Hitome had no one. She knew she could have Allan, but he disgusted her.

That night hitome didn't sleep where Allan could find her, she slept in one of the spare bed rooms, she had discovered earlier.

The next morning she walked in to the village, to get some breakfast and ran in to some kids playing princess and prince, this made her even more upset. She ran to the forest, where she could see nothing that reminded her of van or Allan.

By the time she got to the forest it was dark, so she decided to find a cave and sleep there.

"A good night sleep will help me feel better." Thought hitome.

At the castle

Van finally sat up from his chair, after hours of sitting there. "I wonder where hitome is."

He went through the whole castle looking for her. He wanted to apologize for almost the entire day, he was mooping around. Allan was not happy with what had happened.

"How could she turn me down?" Allan asked himself. "I'll teach her!"

Van quit searching after he looked on the clock and noticed it was 3:00 am

He walked over to his room, and could still smell hitome there.

As he got to his bed, he thought he heard a scratch on his balcony. Was it hitome?

He hoped it was. He sprang out of bed, when he got to the window; his hopes were crushed into a million pieces. All that was there was the castle cat.

"Dam cat!"

After hours of tossing and turning van finally got to sleep.

Allan on the other hand, was busy at work, making his plan work.

He knew van had to go to meeting in the morning and afternoon. Then he would lure hitome into his room, there he would give her one last chance to have him. If she refused again, he would make sure no one could have her...
