Sorry readers it's a real short one. But I'll have the next chapter longer.

Chapter 5: Under the Menoa Tree

Where could she be? thought Eragon, as he sat on the ground by the Menoa Tree. I've been waiting here for ever, Arya better show.

Patience little one, Arya will show. She has always kept her word, said Saphira, who was curled up beside Eragon. They stayed silent until Arya arrived moments later.

"I'm so glad that you came." said Eragon, standing up and walking up to her.

"Why? I was the one who told you to come here!" said Arya, a blank expression on her face, and two fingers to her lips.

"Who was that elf? What were you doing? Why have you been avoiding me? Where you kissing that elf? Is…" Eragon stopped he had forgotten to greet Arya properly; he had let his emotions get in the way. Quickly placing his fingers to his lips.

"May good fortune rule over you." said Arya, in the ancient language.

"Peace live in your heart." replied Eragon, in the ancient language.

"And stars watch over you." finished Arya, she smiled at him and began to answer his many questions, "You know who that elf was I told you, Aryan. He makes our greatest swords. And what do you mean, 'What was I doing?' I was bidding my old friend for well. I only kissed him on the cheek because I want nothing to happen to him."

"Oh." said Eragon; he felt his cheeks get red with embarrassment, "Why have you been avoiding me? I mean you know harm. And I am sorry if I hurt you."

"Look Eragon I cannot and do not feel the same way about you as you feel about me. I am an elf you are a human. I am old you are young. I live longer than you can ever live. I am sorry but I just can work, but I am even sorry for offending you but avoiding you." Eragon felt his heart sink to the bottom of the Ocean as Arya hit him with these words. A blank and stun look came took over his face, and he fell silent. "…Eragon…" said Arya, looking at him after along silence. "…eragon…" said Arya, her voice growing louder. "…Eragon…" yelled Arya, he shook his head as he snapped back into the real world.

"Oh sorry Arya, you were saying something after you ripped out my heart!" said Eragon, gazing into Arya's eyes he could see sadness, and pain.

"I really am sorry, Eragon please don't say mad at me!"

Little one, be careful or you might be sorry, said Saphira

Quiet, snapped Eragon

"Maybe Arya we should never see each other again, or be friend's anymore." yelled Eragon, as he turned his back to Arya and stormed off into the night.

"Eragon wait!" called Arya, but with no reply.

Saphira can you talk to him for me, I really don't mean to hurt him. Tell him that I forgive him and ask him if you can forgive me? said Arya to Saphira

I'll try I doesn't want to talk he has completely blocked me out but I'll talk to him. replied Saphira

Thank you. Arya turned and walked away into the night, leaving Saphira who flew back to the tree house and waiting for him to return.
