Tia and Dallas were laughing and drying off on the way back to the palace.

"Those Aquatics were so-o smoked!" she laughed.

"Yeah, those psychos," Dallas said and landed Janti in the hanger, but there were two fairies in the way.

"Hey!" he shouted.

The guy took the fairiette off to the side.

As Janti hopped past to her perch, Tia looked at them. One was the fairy of hotness that had come to see her the other night. The guy looked up at her too, and his eyes went wide. Before she could jump off the gyr falcon and stop him, he ran while dragging the other female into the palace.

"So did you have fun?" Dallas asked tying Janti's jesses to a perch.

"Uh-huh," Tia said automatically.

"Is something wrong?"

Tia looked at him, "Would you excuse me for one second?"

"Uh, sure okay..." Dallas said lifting her off the bird.

Without a goodbye, Tia rushed after the way the hot fairy went.

She heard some running foot steps echo from down the right of the hallway so she went after it.

It was hard to hear since the hall dynamics weren't strong. It had bad acoustics.

More 'click, click, clicks' to run after. But this time, it was behind her. She whirled her head around confused and saw a tiny foot, but it wasn't a male's.

She turned a corner as she turned her head and came face to face with a golden tanned, hazel eyed, stud. She didn't stop in time and bumped into him.

She fell back in surprise and he landed on her.

"You, it's you..." she tried to recognize him.

"I'm so sorry Miss," He said and fumbled to stand with flushed cheeks.

"Where are you?" they heard a fairiette call.

"Over here!" The hotness answered and helped Tia up.

He tried to leave but Tia kept a hold of his hand, "Who...are...you?"

"Please miss, I have to go.." he said trying to gently pry her off.

"Oh, Di...HEATH! Here you are!" Tamera zoomed around the corner. She knew that Diego had run from the performer and it was her job to take him back.

"Is that you're name? Heath?" Tia said with desperate all colored eyes. Her ashy blonde hair hung in her face from her fall that she did not flip back.

Diego knew for sure, no mistaking those eyes for Tia's. He felt like a loser but nodded his head.

"Oh," Tia bit her lip in disappointment.

"Did you think I was someone else?" he asked to see if she was actually looking for him.

"Last night, you said something that made it sound like you once knew me..." Tia stumbled through her words but she saw in his eyes, drenched with a honey-hazel color, that he was hiding something. The same color of eyes Diego had.

"Sorry about that," Diego shrugged.

"Well, it was nice talking to you, but we've got things to do," Tamera smiled and lead Diego off.

Tia was so excited that she tried jogging after him but her foot slipped on the marble floor and she fell as Tamera drug 'Heath' away. He HAD to be Diego! His eyes hadn't changed! But why would Diego have lied and said he was someone else? That wasn't him, he just wouldn't do that. She slumped over in disappointment.

"Tia!" Dallas' voice penetrated the silence.

She heard him, but kept on looking at the space where 'Heath's' handsome body had occupied. How could she have thought he was Diego? Diego wasn't all that muscular or great looking back when she knew him. No, his outstanding quality was the sweetness. A great disappointment flooded her mind, she had failed to find him.

"Tia, here you are. What have you been doing?" Dallas finally had found her.

"Just talking," she shrugged and looked up at him.

"Are you ALRIGHT?" Dallas asked and rushed up to her.

"Yeah, why?"

He lifted a tear off her cheek that had a tattoo that translated to 'Cautious winds' and said, "You're crying."
