Love is in the air

Chapter 3 – After a battle

"FIRE!" Taranee burned the soldiers' weapons.

"AIR!" Hay Lin sent the soldiers back, pushing them with her air force.

Suddenly, Irma screamed.

"GIRLS! Help me!"

Cedric had grabbed her tight so she couldn't use her power over water. Taranee and Hay Lin were still fighting far away from Irma with Phobos' soldiers and they didn't hear her.

Cornelia was dealing with Frost, sending vines to wrap him, but he was strong, and it wasn't so easy, so she couldn't help Irma.

Only Will turned to face Cedric.

"Let go of her, snake boy! Or…"she shouted, flying near him.

"Or what?" he answered, grinning. Irma was struggling to escape.

"Or this…" Will began to use the Heart and to grow some pink energy, preparing it for the blond lord.

But then, Phobos came near her and hit her with energy (Although he needed his sister's powers, he wasn't powerless!), sending her to the ground.

"You!" she said. "How dare you!"

"Dare what?" the prince answered, smiling.

Then Will and Phobos started fighting, ignoring the rest around them.

Finally, Taranee and Hay Lin came, Irma, helped by Caleb and Blunk (Blunk distracted the lord), escaped Cedric and Cornelia trapped Frost in her vines.

Will shot a pink beam at her opponent, but he managed to avoid it. Then, for a moment, they looked one at another… The girls came near the keeper, looking a bit exhausted.

"What can we do, Will?" Cornelia asked. Cedric moved near the prince.

Still gazing Phobos, Will answered:

"Nothing, Cornelia. We're leaving. We're tired and we played enough for now. Let's go!"

The Witch group left, flying, with Cornelia carrying Caleb and Hay Lin carrying Blunk.

"My prince…" Cedric began. He wanted to say that it had been a good battle.

"Not now, Cedric! You must go back to Earth!"

"I just wanted to say that…" Cedric tried to explain, but Phobos just glared at him, meaning there was nothing to say.

"Aaa…I'm…on my way!" Cedric decided not to upset his prince.

Phobos went in the castle. The blond lord returned to Earth. There he went to his home and turned on the TV, drank a glass of water and sat in his armchair.

And, without noticing, he started to think of Elyon. "She's a great girl. Sweet and beautiful… With a very nice smile." He then realized what he was saying. "No… what am I doing? I have a mission here!" he thought.

But then the blond man smiled. "It's not yet evening… Maybe Elyon can come with me to see a movie? I need to recover after this battle and watching a movie with her is just the thing I need."

So he picked up the phone and dialed her number. Elyon answered in a bored voice.

"Hi, Elyon! How are you?"

There was silence for a moment.

"Rick! Is that you?"

"Yeah, my dear. It's me."

"I'm so glad to hear you! I'm fine, thanks. And you? Is something wrong?" her voice wasn't bored anymore.

"No, I just called to…invite you to a movie…would you…accept?"

"Really! Sure, I accept! When, where?"

"How about in a half an hour, in front of the bookstore?"

"Done. See you there!"

"Bye."

Elyon couldn't believe it! "He invited me to a movie! But…what shall I wear?"

She started searching desperately all her room. A dress? Jeans perhaps?

Half an hour later, Cedric was waiting in front of the bookstore. "Was it a good idea?" he was thinking over and over again. "Is this a right moment for me to fall in love? Of course not! But, it's not that bad. Yes, it's not! It's a good thing. Really. I can find the princess with Elyon by my side. No problem. But… She's so beautiful!"

Elyon was in front of him, smiling. She was wearing the long purple skirt and a light purple shirt. And she looked so natural and pretty, with a beautiful necklace around her neck.

"You look… absolutely charming!" he said.

The girl blushed. "Thank you…" she whispered.

As they headed for the cinema, Elyon saw Will walking alone, looking at the ground. She was sad, but why? And why wasn't Will with Matt?

"Rick? Can you excuse me for a second? That's one of my friends over there and she doesn't seem fine. Can I go to talk to her?"

"Sure, my dear. I'll wait here."

Cedric watched her as she walked to that girl, with red hair. "RED HAIR? But isn't that the keeper? The guardian of the veil? The leader, actually?" he thought and came closer to them.

"Hey, Will. What's wrong?" Elyon placed her hand on Will's shoulder. Will looked at her with sad eyes and hugged her.

"Elyon…Matt and I…broke up! He said that I'm always late and…the most important thing: he doesn't love me! He said only that I'm nice and he just…tried to see if it works out. But it didn't, Elyon…it didn't!"

"Cam down, Will, please! It's not your fault, it wasn't meant to be, that's all! You'll find someone soon, I know you will!"

Will was 19, and she would be 20 in some months now. She had plenty of time to find her true love.

"Thanks, Elyon. I'm just going home now; maybe I'll get some rest. Bye!"

"Bye, Will!"

Elyon returned to Cedric, who had heard some of the girls' conversation. But when she was again next to him, he forgot everything else.

As they were walking, Cedric slowly took her hand in his. She got a bit nervous first, but then she calmed down and squeezed gently and soft his hand. She looked at him and they both smiled.

So, Will is 19, going on 20. I mentioned that because it may help me later on. And I decided, it's not a Will/Matt story! It'sWill x ...I'm not telling yet!Read and review please! Bye!
