Chapter 13: The Truth

"Zelos there is something very important that I need to tell you," Storm began as Zelos spotted the worried look on her face.

"What's the matter? Did something happen? You can tell me," Zelos told her, noticing how hesitant she was to speak. He pulled her into an embrace trying to relax her. Unfortunately, this was making her feel even worse about what she was going to say to him.

"Zelos, please don't be upset with me," she said softly into his chest.

"About what? What could I be upset with you about?" he asked her, almost laughing at what she was saying.

"I wanted to tell you this before you found out about it from someone else. I wanted to make sure that you got the entire truth from me so I'm going to be completely honest with you," she told him.

"Okay?" Zelos was beginning to get worried about what she was trying to tell him. She always acted unsure of herself when something was bothering her and she wasn't willing to tell him about it. This time though, she was going to tell him about it, but he didn't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing in this case.

"Zelos, I've been seeing someone else. I've been seeing someone behind your back. I don't know why I did it. I guess I just rushed into this without even thinking things through," she started as tears began to well up in her eyes. She couldn't bear to look at him, but she knew that he was having a hard time processing what she was saying.

"What?" he finally said, his voice barely audible.

"Zelos, I'm sorry but this baby, I'm not even completely sure if it's yours," she couldn't handle it anymore the tears started to fall and she couldn't believe that she had actually told him.

Zelos took her by the shoulders and pulled her away from him so he could look her in the face. "You did what! Why!" he asked, his voice getting louder, but it was beginning to quiver from his emotions.

"I...I don't know. It just sort of happened," Storm said.

"It just sorta happened? Things like that don't just happen. You were there and you could have stopped it. You didn't though did you?" Zelos asked her, tears forming on his face.

"No, and I should have, I'm so sorry Zelos. I didn't mean to hurt you. I would never try to hurt you," Storm said.

"Well you managed to," he told her. "Why would you do this? Weren't you happy with me?" Zelos asked her.

"Yes, I was very happy with you. You make me so happy," Storm honestly told him.

"Then why did you go and mess around with someone else? Who was it?" Zelos attempted to find out.

"I don't think it would be a good idea to tell you, it could make things uncomfortable between the two of you," Storm told him.

"It's someone I know? Who would it be?" Zelos began to think things over for a few moments as he thought of all the men she was around before she was pregnant. Suddenly, it came to him, the only man she was around before she was pregnant. "It's Yuan isn't it?"

"Zelos, please don't do anything drastic," Storm begged him.

"I can't believe that he would do something like this. I can't believe that you would do something like this," Zelos yelled at her before he got up out of the couch and walked to the other side of the room in a huff.

"Zelos...," Storm almost whispered as she came up to him and placed a hand on his shoulder gently.

Zelos jerked away from Storm, facing away from her so she couldn't see the emotions on his face. "I'm going to go and think all of this over, but I can't be around you right now," he stated as he walked out of the room and went outside.

Storm stared at the door that he left out of for a few moments before she ran over to the couch crying her heart out. It was one of the few times in her life where she let out all of her emotions. She didn't know what she would do without Zelos, her life would never be the same without his love. She couldn't bear to lose him. She soon cried herself to sleep on the couch.

Meanwhile, Kratos and Yuan were having a talk out in the field outside of Meltokio.

"Yuan, what have you done?" Kratos asked angrily.

"I can't help the way I feel Kratos. I can't help that I fell in love with Storm," Yuan boldly stated.

"Well, let me tell you that if you ruin her marriage, I'll ruin you," Kratos threatened him. "What happened with loving Martel?"

"Kratos, you've been mourning for almost seventeen years now," Yuan began. "I've been mourning Martel's death for almost 4000 years. I now realize that she wouldn't want me to ignore my heart for her. Trying to hold on to her this long makes me as bad as Mithos."

"Yes, but I am sure that Martel would not want you to break up my daughter's marriage," Kratos stated.

"Well, that part was something that neither of us seemed to have control over. It's just that these emotions took over and we lost all thought of what we were doing. Believe me, if I would have been thinking straight I would have realized that you would possibly kill me," Yuan told him.

"You could have gone with some other girl, but why my daughter? Yuan, think about it," Kratos asked him angrily, still trying to cope with the idea.

"I already told you that my heart took over. I can't help who fall in love with," Yuan told him.

"I could get a lot angrier with you about this, but Storm made me promise that I wouldn't hurt you," Kratos said. "We'll move on, but if I catch you alone with Storm again, you'll wish you weren't there," Kratos warned him as he drew out his sword for him to see.

Storm was standing in a beautiful field full of thousands of different colored wildflowers. A strong breeze blew through her hair, causing some of the petals to blow around. She looked up and saw Zelos standing in the distance. He was smiling at her as he ran towards he, she soon began to make her way through the field as she tried to meet him. A few feet before they met though he disappeared, leaving her alone in the field once again. Suddenly, the sky in the field became gray and cloudy as the flowers began to die, their colors also fading to gray.

The next thing she knew, she was in downtown Meltokio among the hustle and bustle of a routine day in the market. She was trying to find her way through the swarms of people. She managed to squeeze her way out of the large crowd. Standing next to a building, surrounded by four women stood Zelos, laughing at something one of the girls was saying.

"Zelos!" Storm called, but Zelos failed to hear her.

"Oh, Master Zelos you're so wonderful," one of the women cooed.

"Hey lady get away from him," Storm said angrily as she got right into the woman's face.

"Hey, hey ladies, let's not fight. There's enough Zelos to go around. Now, my little angel, try not to be so rude to my hunnies," Zelos told Storm as he broke up Storm's confrontation.

"Your hunny! What about me!" Storm asked desperately.

"Well, you can be my hunny too, I can never have too many," Zelos replied.

"What's happened to you Zelos, you're not like this anymore," Storm asked him.

"Sorry, but you must be mistaking me for someone else, but I don't know how you could confuse this sexy face with someone else's," Zelos replied, laughing as all the other women joined him.

"Milady...milady, please wake up milady," the maid called desperately trying to wake Storm from her sleep.

"What? Oh, it was just a dream. Yes, I'm sorry what is it?" Storm asked as she slowly pulled herself up.

"Oh my lady, you do not look well at all. Is something the matter, you're so pale and your eyes are all blood-shot," the maid asked her.

"No, I'm fine. What was it you wanted to tell me?" Storm asked her.

"Oh, Master Zelos wanted to see you in the garden. What is wrong with him? He's been out there for hours. He doesn't look well either," the maid told her.

"It's no matter, I'll go out and see him," Storm replied as she had the maid help her off the couch.

Storm walked out into their garden. The garden was one her favorite places. The garden held a small pond with fish in it, a fountain, and was full of many varieties of plants. The whole garden was surrounded by a large brick wall to keep other neighbors out. There was a small bench that was on one side of the garden where the pond was. Zelos was seated at this bench and seemed as if he was lost in thought. Storm hesitantly walked over and sat down next to him, not daring to look him in the eyes.

"Storm...," Zelos sighed.

Storm didn't answer, she didn't even look at him, too scared to see what the look on his face would be.

"Storm, I'll admit that I'm not happy about what you did," Zelos started. "But, I also know that I've made many stupid mistakes in my life. You were brave enough to tell me the truth about this, that must mean something," he told her.

Storm slowly lifted up her head but still kept her eyes away from his own.

"I still love you and I love that child, whether it's mine or not. If it's not mine, we'll figure out what to do together. I can't stand to leave either of you. I have a deal," Zelos told her.

Storm looked up at him with a look of confusion on her face. She had absolutely no idea what he was talking about.

"Have you completely broken up with Yuan?" he asked her. She nodded at him. "Okay, if I don't bring up anything about my past relationships and all of the stupid mistakes I've made, you don't bring up anything about Yuan. But remember, from here on out, it's just you and me and no one else," Zelos told her.

"I promise, I'll never do anything so selfish again in my life. I'm sorry that I hurt you," Storm told him as she began to cry once again.

"Well, I actually think that it's a big step for you to actually tell me how you feel and what's bothering you. You always keep that kind of stuff hidden. Maybe one day you'll be able to tell me that stuff much easier," Zelos told her as he hugged her to stop her crying.

"I love you Zelos, with all my heart," Storm told him.

"I love you too. But answer one thing for me. Did you do this because you weren't happy?" he asked her.

"No, I'm very happy with you. You almost treat me too well, I don't deserve it," she told him.

"You deserve everything and more," Zelos told her as he kissed her on the forehead.
