Zahir was starting to wonder if he shouldn't have been so abrupt.
'What if she says no,' he thought, worried. He was so worried, he came a bell early. Finally he heard the Noon Bell chime.
Kel had been thinking about Zahir all day, and jumped when she heard the Noon Bell.
"I'm going to be late!" she cried, startling her friends.
"Where are you going?" yelled her best friend, Nealan of Queen's Cove, or preferably, Neal.
Kel didn't answer, as she ran to the gardens.
Zahir was about to leave when he heard a voice, "Zahir wait!"
He turned around to find Kel.
"Hay," he said nervously, letting her catch her breath.
"Zahir, I have thought all day about what you asked yesterday. My answer is, that I do want to try it, but everyone I have ever loved has either not been able to be with me, or has gotten married. If you really, truly, want to try it, I will to." She finished, eyes downcast.
"Kel, I know it will work. I also know that I do want to be with you." He replied.
"It's settled, then." Zahir kissed her, happy when Kel responded. They were like that for a while. Kel finally pulled away.
"We need to pack," Kel said.
"Yeah, I guess we can't sleep together yet?" Zahir asked.
"No Not yet .
"How about when we get on the road?" He asked again hopefully.
"Fine. We'll pack two bedrolls, though." She answered.
"Deal."
That night, Zahir's dreams were filled with a green-hazel eyed girl.
Next, they will be on the road.
Sorry if the characters are a little OOC.
