Once the sun peered in from the window, Kai's eyes pulled open wearily. He looked down at a sleeping brunette. He smiled to himself. "Good morning Princess." He whispered and stroked her hair.

"Mom?" she spoke as she woke up slowly. She looked up and saw the tan man who'd carried her all the way here. "Oh hey Pretty Boy."

"What's with you and pretty boy?" he managed to ask. He didn't know how this girl did it, but Reyanne was capable of turning him in to mush. He stuttered when he talked and blushed every time he saw her.

She giggled, "It suits you."

"Heh… thanks."

"Well, you looked cold. Hope I didn't bother you." She stood up and walked to the patient room to pick up her things.

You could never bother me, beautiful.

"So do you know who bought me the clothes?" her voice came from behind the curtains.

"I did."

"Oh. Thank you so much Kai! How much do I owe you?"

"Don't worry about it. Consider it a 'welcome' present."

She stepped outside and gave him a look. "Are you sure?"

"Positive." He smiled. In the full sunlight he saw how pretty she was. Unfortunately, his male instincts kicked in and he found his eyes irremovable from her chest.

The door burst open suddenly and Claire ran inside searching everywhere. "Kai! There you are. Come quick!" she ran up to him and pulled him up.

"What's wrong Claire?"

"It's Gray. Mary broke up with him." tears almost fell down her face.

"How on earth is that possible? She loved the hell out of him." Kai walked quickly to the door with the blonde girl.

"Apparently not. He said Mary told him she wasn't interested at all but felt bad saying no."

"Wait, what about Reyanne?" Kai turned to the tall girl standing sheepishly in the middle of the clinic.

"Oh, sweetie you're here that's right! I'm so sorry I got so caught up in this and-"

"Don't worry about me Claire. You guys go check up on your friend. I'll pack up my things and clean up a little before Trent gets here." Rey smiled.

With a pained look on his face Kai reluctantly closed the door and ran along side his friend.

"He's at the Inn. I don't know what's going on right now. Ann told me she saw him run up the stairs after he ran out of my house." Claire explained as they ran, trees and building were a blur.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~.

Rey finished packing and folding sheets and other things just as Trent stepped in to the clinic. She poked her head outside and smiled.

"Hey Doc. I left things how they were, thank you for taking care of me."

"Oh hello Rey. It's my job and thank you for cleaning up. Have you seen Claire? I got out early to collect some herbs I thought maybe she'd be here with you."

"She's with Kai and some other guy. I think a girl named Mary dumped the kid."

"Was it Gray?" Trent had slight concern in his voice.

"Yeah that's his name. So I don't really know what's going on. I'm going to go into the forest. When I found diamond there my vision was blurry but it looked peaceful and it felt it too."

"Yes. It is. I hope you feel better. Come in later this week for some medicine and a check up okay?" Trent waved goodbye to her as she left.

Reyanne stepped into the clearing where the lake was located. She was mesmerized by the view. The lake was so crystal clear she could see fish swimming around. She felt her body relax as she took in a deep breath. Suddenly a loud scream startled her. It had sounded like it came from the clearing ahead of her. Reyanne made her way over the bridge to see what had happened.

Her eyes widened at the scene. She saw a blonde boy punching at a tree. His hands were bloody. Tears glistened on his cheeks. And he was screaming out cuss words in between "why did this happen?" and "I thought she liked me!".

"Excuse me?" a voice behind Gray surprised him. He whirled around to see the person, about to scream at them.

He saw in front of him a pretty girl with dark auburn hair.

"Are you okay?" she asked again. Those dark hazel eyes looked at him.

"Of course I'm fine. Why would you ask such a stupid question? Who the hell are you anyway? Leave me the f-"

"Reyanne."

Gray was completely caught off guard. "Wh.. what?" he exhaled.

"I'm Reyanne. You can call me Rey. I'm guessing you're Gray?" she asked with the calmest expression.

"Y-yeah. Aren't you.. why aren't you…"

"I'm from the city and I've grown up around boy cousins, I can handle a little cussing."

He only stared at her.

"I heard what happened. I know it's probably not my place to say anything since I don't know you but I'm sorry about what happened. I know you must be confused right now, thinking it was you who did something wrong but believe me, it was not your fault. What happened was because of how Mary acted and you should never think you had anything to do with it. You seem like a wonderful person."

Reyanne found herself wrapped in this man's arms. She could hear his heart beat. Feel his warmth. His arms tight around her back. She hugged him back. Gray finally let go and stepped back embarrassed.

"I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me I just-"

"It's fine. Don't worry about it." she smiled. "Now, if you want to get rid of the stress you're feeling let's begin with some basic exercises. Let's start with a run from here to the bridge."

Gray looked at her with confusion written all over his face.

"It's better than getting your knuckles scratched and bloody. Which reminds me, go wash them in the lake, I have some gauze we can wrap around them."

Somehow, Gray was calm now. He did as he was told and came back with clean hands. She wrapped the gauze around his hands gingerly. As she did this, he noticed her hands were scratched up as well. He wondered why she was acting like this.

This girl didn't cry and make him feel guilty when he yelled at her. She didn't mind him cussing. The way she calmed him down was incredible. She understood exactly what he was feeling and empathized with him. She didn't even get surprised or offended when he hugged her all of a sudden. And now she was having him run some laps to get his mind of off things. He looked at her in awe as she ran along side him, brown waves blowing in the wind.

Kai felt a pain in his chest. He stood shocked as he stepped foot on the other side of the bridge and looked at the two adults together. Why was Reyanne running with Gray? Why was she smiling and since when was she blushing? Kai didn't feel good about this. Not one bit. He was jealous. And of his best friend.
