Cyrus' POV
Now, not that I'm scared of caves or the mobs that call them home, but this cave creeps me the Nether out. Now as we were walking down the first twenty or so blocks, we came to a fork in the cave with some coal in the wall on the right side. I checked both cave sections and the left section descended slowly but had a crap-ton of coal and what appeared to be a few pieces of iron by the looks of it. The right section descended quickly with very little coal but had quite a bit of iron and I could see the glow of lava farther down which could mean diamonds.
I turned to the group and asked "It's your call guys. Left or Right? Shane what do you think?"
"Well one side has the coal we'll need to cook any iron we find and the food we collect. While the other has little coal but considerably more iron and lava could mean diamonds. The most logical thinking would be mine some stone and go for as much iron as possible but with very little coal; we wouldn't have much use for iron ore."
Just then, Shadow stood up says "Why don't we split up? Blake, go with Shane and Carly and I'll go with Cyrus.
He gave me a luck that said 'trust me on this' and for some odd reason, I did. "I guess that would be fine," I saw him relax at my agreement "but then we just do a speed run. Go to the end of each section and turn back with what you have. If you come to another fork don't go into either section. That agreed?"
"That's completely fine with me! I mean why wouldn't it be? It not like anything is going to happen right?" answered Carly very fast.
I could see the worry in her eyes and saw her trembling and I knew she was scared. Of what, I could only guess! Of splitting up or being alone with Shane and Blake? Or is it being away from me? No that can't be it!
"Ok well everyone else get ready and we'll break camp in five minutes." I walked over to my things and started packing when I heard footsteps behind me. When I looked behind me I was surprised to find Carly standing there. "Hey"
"Hey. I was wondering if I could talk to you for a minute. In private."
"Uh…. Yeah that'd be fine." She and I walked about twenty feet back towards the entrance to the cave, when she suddenly started to break down.
"Carly, hey, what wrong? Do you have a problem with us splitting up? You don't have to go if you don't want to."
"It's….." "Not…." "That…."
She was sobbing so violently that she could barely speak. "Then what is it you can tell me anything" Then she looked up at me and I could see the longing in her eyes.
The longing for home.
"Hey, hey, hey! Look I know you miss home and I do too but we can't go back. There's nothing there. You saw what was left of the village when we found it and the battle was still raging! Look our families may be gone but at least we still have each other. Right? There we go! That's the smile I love to see!" As soon as I said those words we both started to blush but then she asked me.
"Promise you'll be safe when we split up, yeah?"
"I promise I won't let anything happen. To me or you."
"You mean that?"
"Yes. As soon as you need me, no matter what's between us, I'll be by your side as soon as you need me. I promise." I said as I noticed our faces slowly getting closer to each other's."
Then the most unexpected but amazing thing happened. She pulled me into a kiss.
