Oliver's point of view
I was in Amelie's office sorting through her paperwork when I heard Myrnin's voice. I looked out of the window and saw Amelie with him. I groaned. I put the papers in a pile and went out to meet them.
Downstairs, I walked to the door and opened it.
"What are you doing here?" I demanded.
"I forgot that this was Amelie's building and her office is one of the many rooms here." Myrnin said, pushing past me. I glance at Amelie and she sends a look that said, leave him alone.
"What are you doing here?" I asked Amelie.
"Myrnin says he is going to teach me to be Founder and what I need to do." She said. I stare at her for a moment.
"And you are going to let him teach you? He will tell you everything you are not to do!" I couldn't believe him.
"Why don't you teach me then? You could spend some time with me. Which you like, I guess." Amelie said. I contemplate that.
"Fine. But tell your friend to go back and babysit Claire. He will not listen to me." I said, walking in. I hear Amelie sigh and I go up the stairs and go to Amelie's office where Myrnin was sitting on the chair with his feet on the desk. I growled. "Get your feet off the desk."
"Why, it's comfortable." He said.
"Please get your feet off the desk. It is not how you treat furniture." Amelie said. Surprise, Myrnin did as he asked. "Oliver is going to teach me. You can go back to Claire, I am sure she is missing your company."
"What? No! I said I will teach you, not him!" Myrnin complained.
"Please? I will spend however much time with you, you want when I am finished." Amelie said.
"No! I want to teach you!" Myrnin said, childishly.
"Leave, now you idiotic child." I said.
"No you... Pervert!" Myrnin shouted back.
"Myrnin, leave! Please." Amelie said. Myrnin pouted, then left purposely walking into my shoulder. I slammed the door behind him.
"I don't know how you do it. Honestly I don't." I said to Amelie. She was looking at the papers on the desk.
"You get used to it." She said.
"Yeah right. I want to kill him every time I see him." I said sitting on the comfy chair.
"Well, you could ignore him. He only does what he does, to get a response from you." Amelie said.
"I know, and I have tried but it hasn't worked. He touches me and I break his hand. Then he punches me. You expect me to ignore that?"
Amelie turned around. "Well no, but as I said he does it for attention and you respond. Just... Ignore him. For now." She said and sat on the desk. "So teach me. What does the Founder do?" She asked. I sighed.
"She attends meetings. And the humans make appointments with you to discuss things." I said. "Also you sign paper. It's asking for permission like expansions or asking to leave town."
"Claire went over it vaguely. What other things do I do? Anything specific?" Amelie asked.
"You don't do anything." I said, not intending for that to come out the way it did. "I mean..." I sighed and Amelie smiled.
"Well, what does the Founder do? We can mix in flirting if you like."
"No. When I go over it, would you like to try it out? There has been a meeting that has been postponed for a while." I said, getting up. Amelie got down.
"I will try." Amelie said. I walked to the window and looked out.
"If your friend cannot fix the machine what will you do? You can't be like this you have to-" I turned around and got cut off with how close Amelie was. "Your very close." I said.
"Yes. I was thinking that instead of teaching we could do something else?" She asked, walking her fingers up my chest. I wiped her hand over my face. I knew what she was getting at, but at least Myrnin was right on one thing. I couldn't take advantage of her while she couldn't remember.
"Amelie, I would love to, but the doors aren't shut, anyone could walk in." I said. Amelie shrugged a tiny bit, then Myrnin slammed open the door. For the first time, I think the mad man might have just saved me.
"Claire, wants to see Amelie." He said. Amelie sighed and glanced at me.
"What does she want?" She asked.
"You need to go there. She's incapacitated. Not that I had anything to do with it." He said. Amelie sighed and walked out of the room. Myrnin smirked at me and I ignored him sitting down with my head in my hands.
"Looks like you had to do something that took up your energy." He said.
"Really?" I would never admit he saved me, he would never let me forget it. I sighed. "Please just leave." I said.
"Why?" Myrnin asked.
"Just do it." I said. Myrnin stood there, then shrugged and left. I waited in case he came back but he didn't.
Well there's a first time for everything.
Myrnin's point of view
That look on Oliver's face just spoke to me. Well not physically spoke but I could guess what he had gone through. He wouldn't allow himself to give in to Amelie's advances, for fear of taking advantage. Which means I could've saved him back then... I smiled. Since when do I do anything nice for Oliver?
I ran back to my lab and saw Amelie checking Claire over for injuries.
"Myrnin, why was Claire under that bookshelf? She could have been crushed!" She said.
"I told you she was incapacitated." I said. Claire glared at me and I smiled. "Anyway, Amelie, when you have finished you can go back to Oliver. Your teaching awaits." I said. Amelie sighed.
"Are you sure your alright?" Amelie asked. Claire nodded.
"I think I will go home. I don't want another bookshelf on me again." She said standing up and collecting her little bag. Then with a farewell glare to me, she walked up the stairs.
"Why did you do it? Humans are delicate, compared to vampires." Amelie said.
"Well I needed a reason for you to come here and I wanted it to be true." I said.
"You made me come away from Oliver?" She asked.
"Why? You were teaching I thought you would find it boring." I said, shrugging picking up the bookshelf and righting it. Amelie sighed and shook her head.
"It doesn't matter. I will see you later, Myrnin." She said and went out of my lab. I looked around and sighed. Alone again.
Forever alone... I'm alone again... *sings other songs which have alone in*
