Chapter seventeen
Fiore: Log two
White

Leaf and Gary were acting very oddly once we started going again. Leaf stayed by my side with N and Mia and Gary stayed with Black who was at the back of the group. They were always... Off when they had a fight but not this way.

I leaned closer to Leaf.

"What happened?" I asked. Leaf blushed.

"Nothing." she said.

"Are you sure?" I asked some more. I didn't want to push her to the point where it was stupid but if something was wrong, I wanted to know.

"It's fine, White. Never mind it." Leaf insisted. I sighed. She wasn't going to tell me anything. I'd ask N about it later once we set up camp for the night.

It would probably take a week to get through everything we had in mind. You'd probably think it would take longer because we were traveling through regions. We travelled fast though... Every trainer seemed to, actually.

"White, I don't understand why I had to come. Not that I didn't want to but..." Mia said faintly. She then coughed. N stopped Mia and placed my hand on her forehead. I flinched, worried about her.

"Mia, you're burning up." he said, a bit surprised. Burning up? I took a look at Mia. She didn't seem to have a fever or anything. She looked fine, let alone sounded fine.

"I am...?" she obliviously asked. I went and did the same as N, placing my hand on her forehead. Just as N said, she was boiling.

"We should stop here." I said, taking off my backpack. Mia tugged on my shirt.

"No, let's keep going. I feel fine." she said. Red put his hat on her head.

"Don't push yourself if you're not feeling well, kiddo." he said.

That was probably the most I've heard Red say in a sentence before...

Mia took off his had and handed it back to him.

"I'm fine, Red. White, there's nothing wrong." she insisted. What was I supposed to do? Should I continue to go on our way or stay here for a while?

"White...?" Keith walked up to me, putting his hand on my shoulder.

"Well..." I stammered. I didn't know what to do. Black came this time.

"White, why don't you go along to Dream City and we'll stay here?" Black suggested. That was probably best. I didn't want Mia travelling if she was sick.

"That's a good idea, thanks Black." I said, taking out my map. I pointed to a small town called Riko. Riko was a place in between Dream City and Almia. "Once Mia's better, travel here. We'll meet you there." I said. Black took a good look and nodded.

"Mia, don't force yourself, okay?" I asked Mia. She nodded, but looked worried.

"I said I'm okay though..." she kept insisting. I shook my head.

"But I can't take a chance."

I motioned over N and Keith and we started going after a short goodbye. We couldn't lose anymore time.

Five hours later, I was pretty tired. It was late now and there was no light. We had to use flashlights to find our way around.

We had three on us and two had died. N had the last one.

"White, we should pack it up for the night before the flashlight dies." Keith said. Just as he finished though, the flashlight died...

"Great way to jinx it, Keith." I joked, putting my bag down and taking a lighter out.

N found some wood in the dark and we started a fire.

The warmth calmed my nerves of everything going on. What was up with Mia? Keith lied down.

"Don't worry about Mia, White. She's a strong girl If she lived on her own for such a long time, she has to be." Keith tried to cheer me up.

"I know... She's like my little sister though, I can't not worry." I said. He smiled at me.

"How do you think Black's holding up?" Keith asked. I looked at him, noticing something was different about hi,.

"You okay?" I asked, starting to get sidetracked. He cringed a bit.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm gonna get some sleep though, I'm pretty tired. Night White." Keith said, rolling onto his other side.

I sighed. I wasn't going to get anything out of him either. It sometimes felt like I wasn't needed for explinations.

A half an hour passed and Keith was fast a sleep. I stared into the fire. There was so much to think about. Once we got out of Dream City, if we remembered anything, we'd have to make our way to Riko. We'd probably have to make arrangements to stay there for a while because who knows if Black and the others would be there or not, as well as how long it would take them to arrive if they weren't.

"Long day..." I said, yawning. I was about to collapse to get some sleep. I didn't know why I was so sleepy. N crept behind me and hugged me. I blushed but he held me in a manner that I couldn't move.

"If you're tired, princess, you can always sleep in my arms." he said. I struggled to be free.

"Let go!" I said, loud but not loud enough to wake Keith up.

"You know, Gary and Leaf remind me a lot about you and I." he said.

"What do you mean?" I asked, stopping my struggles. N started to play with my hair.

"They have a lot of romance going on between them but don't want to admit it." he explained. Woah woah, romance between us? "White, can I tell you something?" he asked. I hesitantly nodded. N looked deep into my eyes.

"N...?" I silently asked because he was being very silent.

"What would you say if I said I loved you?" he finally said.

My heart skipped a beat.

"White...?" he asked. I felt faint for a moment.

"Uh..." came across my mouth. I didn't know what to say.

N then pulled me in slowly, my body not letting me do anything.

Our lips touched, fireworks went off, and I basically fainted in his arms two minutes later.
