Best Friends:
Chapter Four
This is dedicated to Nol for scaring two years of my life out of me, and The Midnight Line, who's death threats got my butt in gear.
Neal watched his friend cross the mess and slip into the table next to their friends. Her face was blank and eyes troubled. Suddenly, he didn't feel so hungry anymore.
He left the mess, careful not to be seen. He didn't want to have to explain to anyone about the fight the night before. They wouldn't understand. He didn't understand, really. They had been friends for over ten years, since the day she had come to the palace. How could she give that all up, without telling him even what was going on?
With a sigh, he walked back to his room, deep in thoughts of the night before.
"I love you, Neal. I love you." Her beautiful hazel eyes were filled with a pain Neal had never seen before, a pain he never wanted to see again. Especially in his best friend.
What had she meant? Was she merely talking in her sleep, or did it really mean something? Did she mean as a friend, or something more?
His heart quickened at the thought, and he let out a curse. He had to get the thought of her out of his head. Not just for him, but for Yuki. But more than anything, for Kel. No matter how much he loved her, he had to forget those feelings.

pinky: i dont think that its humanly possible to be as cute as Neal. Only Dom, and maybe Joren, can compete. But Nawat is sooo cute...its fun to make him stubborn. Besides, thats who he is? Remember when Dom met Kel and he tells her about the Meathead thing? He calls him that cuz he's so stubborn.
