Waiting...
Alright everyone i'm back . Yay! Anyway do forgive me as I know it's been a while since i'v written or updated anything.
I'v been busy coming up with ideas for my next story. I'm not sure if i'll be able to put it on this website though seeing as it isn't really
a fanfiction. It's simply just a story that i'm going to be writing. I don't know yet, but maybe i'll find a way to have it posted here. Anyway
seeing as it's been some time since i'v updated I promise to make this chapter longer then the last to make up for it. Now then, with all that said
Let's begin shall we? .
Chapter Two
-Zidane helrd onto her tightly and kissed back. She had stopped being mad at him for leaving her alone and was simply glad to know that he was safe and with her again. She didn't want to let him go, however the annoying sound of metal foot steps headed in their direction broke them apart as the door came flying open. Stiener bounced into the room and right up to the side of the bed. Garnet was about to yell at him and throw him out of the room but stopped when he started going on and on about how unfitting it was that she gave permission for a thief to stay in her room or even the castle for that matter.-
"Princess, you'v got to stop this! It's not becoming of a queen to be! I won't stand for it!" -He jumped around a little but was silenced by garnet's raised hand.-
"Stop being so loud, stop telling me what to do, stop jumping around like an idiot, and get the hell out! You're making way to much noise and people are trying to sleep. Unless you want punishment for your actions you'll turn around and leave so that I can get changed, and when i'm done i'll finish dealing with you." -She walked over to the door and pointed him out. He seemed to be speechless for the moment and with his head down he left the room, as Beatrix entered with a look of cinfusion on her face-
"What was that about?" -She helped Garnet change and they left the room, so that Zidane could get a good rest without a bunch of noise.-
"That was about Stiener and the big mouth he has. Didn't you hear him yelling a little bit ago? I swear one of these days he's going to wake the dead, then we'll really be in trouble." -They both laughed as they entered the thrown room. Garnet sat in her chair and Beatrix sat on the step infront of her. Garnet was not yet Queen, but she had to take the thrown early as her mother was no longer there to claim it and it could not go without a ruler. She spent the day talking with the people from the town and saw that they got what they wanted and needed. They all loved her, well all but a few who thought she would turn out to be just like her mother. Those who loved her saw something diffrent in her. Something gentle, something that not a lot of rulers had in them. She was kind to her subjects and treated them with respect, as they did her. Of course she had to deal with Stiener telling her that it was unbecoming of her to do such a thing and that people would talk about her behind her back, but she really didn't care. None of that seemed to bother her at all. She believed she was doing the right thing. When she wasn't talking with her subjects she was talking with Beatrix.-
"Don't mind Stiener for now your majesty, he'll get over it. He's still stuck in the past and what he thinks is right. Sometimes it's not easy to get past that you know. It's the way the queen taught him to be. I believe that in her final year or so that was the only thing she did right. She made sure you were always protected. For the wrong reasons yes but still something good came from it. I'm not saying her death was good because I know how you felt about that, but i'm saying we beat Kuja and through all that you'v changed a bit, and now you're doing the right thing. Do you understand what i'm saying?" -Beatrix looked at her with a smile-
-Garnet returned the smile. She knew exactly what Beatrix was trying to say, even if it did sound a bit confusing. Her mother had turned out to be a rather bad person after the death of her father. Her mother had been ruthless and bitter to the very end when Kuja took her life with the power he took from Garnet. Through this though she knew it had taught her how to be bitter. She wouldn't turn out bitter. She'd rule the way she was ment to. She would be kind and gentle, the way her father had been before his life was taken from him.-
"I understand what you mean. I'll do the best I can to lead these people in the right direction, even if I don't always have the strength to do so." -She gave a smile and greeted the next person that came in-
"As long as your friends are around you'll always have the strength you need. And last time I checked i'm pretty sure you won't be doing this on your own." -Beatrix gave a small laugh.-
"The best is all we ask of you my dear." -Zidane walked in and sat in the thrown next to her. Causing Stiener to go into a fit about how wrong it looked, to have a thief on the thrown was a disgrace to the kingdom and it should have been alloud to happen. Garnet had had about enough of this and stood up walking down infront of him she glared.-
"Honestly, you have changed to much. You're so rude sometimes! Is that what you have to say to the person who saved your life? Who saved us all? If I have to sit and listen to you go on and on about how things shouldn't be and how they are i'm going to go crazy! In fact just so I don't have to hear anymore of it, you will spend the next month working in the kitchen cleaning and cooking with Quina, and if I hear any complaining out of you again it'll be longer. Now go." -He began to protest, trying to tell her that she couldn't do that to him, and that it wasn't his job, but she pointed in the direction of the kitchen and glared at him.-
"But Princess! You can't be serious! Don't make me do this." -She sighed and walked back to her seat.-
"No buts. Just for that it's two months now. Honestly Stiener stop acting like a baby. I'm not your mother so stop crying about everything." -Beatrix and zidane were trying to hold their laughter in but could do it no longer. True they shouldn't have been laughing but seeing Garnet yell at Stiener was something you just had to laugh at wether it was funny or not. Stiener gave up defeated and walked yet again with his head down to explain to the cooks why he was there and have them tell him what to do.-
-As time passed and the day went on the castle got fewer visitors and everyone settled down and got ready for an evening of rest. Stiener was in his room, he had taken a beating that day while working in the kitchen. The cooks loved the idea of having his help and made him do everything. He was about to fall into a deep sleep, one that he had been waiting for all day when a rather loud crash came from down the hall. He jumped up and ran out of his room heading for Garnets room. Upon reaching it he found the door locked. He wrestled with the handle for a few minutes but couldn't get it open. He stodd there for a few minutes and sat down outside the door. eventually he fell asleep and awoke when he felt Beatrix poking him the next morning.-
"What's going on? Why are you outside Garnet's room?" -Beatrix stood with her hands on her hips and tapped her foot. Stiener stood up and was about to tell her when Garnets door came open and she walked out looking around.-
"What are you doing out here?" -He placed his hands on her shoulders-
"Princess! Is everything alright? I was about to go to sleep last night and I heard this really loud crash and then I came to see if you were alright and I couldn't get in and I kept hearing these loud noises all night!" -Stiener was frantic and running round in circles, untill Beatrix slapped him to calm him down. Garnet spun around and looked down-
"Oh, no. Was I really that loud?" -She pulled Beatrix back into the room and closed the door leaving a very confused Stiener standing in the hallway.-
