Worlds Apart: Chapter 2 Unexpected Findings
He sighed. Another morning, just like the rest. Baralai lifted his head up slowly, and leaned onto the railing of Bevelle's temple. The blue and white hues of Spira's sky reflected into his honey brown eyes. He drifted; sure he was tired, after everyday of dealing with this and that. Who ever said being a praetor was easy, but he never wanted to drift off into sleep like this. 'It'll just take a sec…' he thought as he laid his head in his hands, and slowly closed his eyes.
"Praetor, sir," A guard articulated, shifting uncomfortably, wondering if he should regret to wake the sleeping praetor up.
"Yes?" Baralai managed as he realized how long he had 'napped'.
"We have found, um, 'something' that we need you to check out…" The guard paused, "We found it during a visit in Besaid. We've brought it to the guest room…"
"Alright. Thank you guard." Baralai dismissed the guard, thinking about what the guard was saying, and what 'it' could be.
~Alearie's POV~
"Ah…" she groaned. Her whole body ached, not to mention her head. Opening her eyes, she saw double of everything. Instinctively, she rubbed her eyes, and shook her head trying to get rid of her tired feeling. Stretching, she looked around the room again. 'Wait' she thought, 'I'm in a room…? I coulda sworn that I was on a beach, the waves, the rain…' The opening of the door to her room interrupted her thoughts. 'Oh god,' her mind was racing, and her insides were screaming 'HIDE!' With all her might she tried to move, but she couldn't. Her body was frozen, her eyes wide with fear as the doorknob turned. She bit her lip and looked frantically around. She didn't have time to hide in the bathroom, or the closet, so the only think she could think off was to pretend that she was sleeping. The door opened, and she plopped her head on the bed and shut her eyes tightly, clenching her fists.
~Baralai's POV~
Baralai walked in, and what he saw caught him off guard. It was a girl, with flowing black hair with faint streaks of brown, her face was pale, and to him, looked like porcelain. He edged closer hesitantly, not wanting to disturb her, and lightly touched her face. It was cold, and clammy, but very smooth. 'Wow, she's beautiful' he thought, and then felt his cheeks burn. How could he think such thoughts?! He was the praetor for Yevon's sake! He yanked his hand away, ashamed, but he couldn't help staring at her in awe. He saw her shiver, and thus, the gentleman he was, instinctively wrapped a blanket around her, and then left her alone.
~Alearie's POV~
She peeked a little at who came in. Her first reaction, (hey she's a teenager, we can't help these things!) was 'Oh, my, god! Is he H~O~T or what?!' She noticed him staring at her, and was trying very, VERY hard not to blush, but almost did when she saw him blush. She didn't know why, but she seemed to feel light-headed when he touched her, and couldn't help wondering why she had wanted him to touch her so badly again. He had wrapped a blanket around her, and inside, she was tingling. 'What is this I'm feeling?' she wondered. She had NEVER ever felt this way before, not about anyone at all especially her so called 'boyfriend'. She felt the anger come back again. She hoped she'd never see his face again.
Sometimes I watch the world go by
I wonder what it's like
To wake up every single day
Smile on your face
You never tried
We both know we can't change it
But we both know we'll just have to face it
Slowly, she drifted off to sleep, filling her mind with thoughts of the guy who came in her room. Hell, she didn't even know what his name was, and she was already addicted.
