"Goodnight."
I woke up to the sunlight, begging me to force my eyes open.
I rubbed my eyes as I sit up, and Bengal is licking his paw at the foot of my bed.
"Morning." I said while smiling and petting his tummy.
"Neophyte get up, and eat breakfast before it get's cold, silly!" The short girl screamed up the steps.
I moaned into Bengal's warm tummy not feeling like getting out of my warm bed stepping on to that cold wooden floor.
But, I had to or that girl wouldn't shut up.
I stepped on the freezing floor and walked to my bathroom to freshin' up.
I walked to the steps, and stopped, to look down at the stub, and making sure to walk over it, with Bengal behind me yawning as he got up.
"Morning." I said while yawning and stretching down the steps.
"Morning Neophyte!" Nico said already done with her breakfast.
"Morning!" Ashida kindly said while wiping up Nico's mess.
He was such a good brother for Nico.
" 'SHIDA HURRY UP, I'M GOING TO BE LATE!" Nico said sliding the front door open and running out wearing a uniform and carrying a small bag.
I wonder where they are goin'...
"I'm right behind ya'!" He shortly said while putting her dish in the sink trying to quickly wash it.
"I'll wash the dishes just leave it there." I said while smiling,
"Oh thank you so much! I oh ya' one!" Ashida said relieved, sprinting out the door running after Nico.
"Wait Ashida where are you guys headed to?" I yelled out the left open door, down the stone bricked street.
"To Nico's Sunday camp! We'll be back around four o' clock! Take care of the house for me will ya'!" He yelled back as his voice was getting further and further away.
I hope they weren't late.
I finished my pancakes and bacon, and gulped down my milk.
That was delicious.
Thanks Ashida, I said in my head.
I finally ate my whole meal of breakfast without that fool taking it.
I scrapped the remains in the trashcan and began doing dishes.
I heard the front door slid open.
"HEY!" A familiar male voice shouted. "Anyone home?!"
It was, of course... Elden.
"In the kitchen!" I shouted back while running water.
"There you are." Elden said scratching his head. "I see your on dish duty!" Elden said cracking up.
"I chose to do this idiot! I said angrily, apparently I wasen't paying attention and a sharp object cut my index finger at the bottom of the sink.
I gasped out in pain, while clutching my soapy finger.
Elden immediately stopped laughing and ran over to me.
"Hey, are you okay?" He looked at my finger and seen a lot of blood on my finger from just one finger.
"Yeah, it's nothing... Ow!" I said as the soap got in to my cut.
Elden turned on the faucet on the other half of the sink. "Here, run water over it to get the soap out, I'll grab a first aid." He said running to a back room.
It hurt like hell as the soap made it's way into my body.
Elden came back shortly and handed me a dry-off towel.
"Dry the water off, and I'll wrap it up." He said turning off the faucet.
"Rule number two." Elden said continuing his rules from yesterday at the Ice cream parlor. "Never leave knives or any sharp object at the bottom of the sink, smart one." Elden said lecturing me like I was some stupid kid.
"I KNOW that!" I exclaimed at Elden, "I just got... distracted." I said looking away as he got out a white ointment, that looked like it would sting.
"Yeah right... Now hold still." He said steadily applying the ointment.
I flinched, because I knew it was going to sting... A LOT.
"I said hold still, idiot... now hold STILL!" He said looking like a murderer.
"I can't help it, I know it's going to hurt, so why not get it out already!" I yelled back at him.
"Fine then I will count down, so you'll know for SURE that I'm about to put it on."
"Okay, get your countin' already..." I said closing my eyes.
"Okay... 3... 2..." Then suddenly he applied it on only the number 2.
"OW!" I hissed kicking his leg. "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!"
"OW!" He hissed back, from me kicking his leg. "ARE YOU CRAZY?!"
He quickly wrapped a bandage around my finger, while I pouted.
"You said you were going to count down, idiot!"
"I didn't tell you what number I was going to count down to!" He said laughing while holding his stomach.
"Stop laughing at me, and help me with these dishes!" I said walking over to the sink.
"Fine since you have an injured finger, I wouldn't mind helping..." He said rolling his eyes and walking to the sink side with the soap and dishes in it.
"You wash, I'll rinse and dry." I said simply. "Got it?"
"Sure whatever..." He made sure to take all sharp objects out.
As he washed them and placed them in the empty sink, I sprayed them down with the attached sprayer.
I then dried them off with a dry towel, I finally placed each one, one by one, into the dish rack.
We were soon done, and as I was putting the last dish in, a wave of warm dirty water splashed up against my face.
"IDIOT!" I yelled.
A blast of laughter was heard from him.
I quickly blasted him with icy cold water from the sprayer attached to the sink.
His eyes widened as I sprayed him. I kinda sprayed Bengal in the process.
Elden quickly flew to the steps, where the water could't reach.
"Think again before spraying that thing over here", he said flying by the steps. "It's either spray the whole house trying to get me, or don't spray me and loose the contest!" He said while laughing.
"I'm going to get you Elden!" I screamed chasing him up the stairs. But he was obviously faster right now because he had his wings out.
I managed to get in the room with Bengal behind me , and find Elden no where in sight.
I checked behind dressers, under my bed, and in my bathroom.
"Where did he possibly go?" I said sitting on my bed getting a good angle of my room.
Suddenly something yanked my hair from the ceiling.
I yelped getting frightened, while he was above me, on my ceiling.
"You idiot, get down here and fight!" I said trying to grab his foot.
Trying to grab his foot multiple times and continuously failing, I laid down face first on my pillow, and moaned.
Elden laughed, while finally coming down.
"What's wrong, giving up already stupid potato?" He asked fake worrying, and making baby faces.
I laughed at his insult, he said when we were in the woods.
I finally turned face up, "Shut up idiot pumpkin..." I said lazily.
"What are you doing here anyway?" I asked him with my hands behind my head.
"I came here because I knew Nico had Sunday camp."
"So..." I said for him to continue.
"So, I knew you were going to be alone." He said tossing a stuffed pillow at Bengal, while Bengal caught it and chewed on it some more.
That's right.
He did pinky promise I wouldn't ever be alone again.
Elden, changed the subject completely.
"So why have you been getting hurt so recently?" He asked pointing to my injured head from yesterday, and then to my finger from fifteen minutes ago.
I looked at my neatly wrapped finger. "I don't know, you tell me..." I got up and looked at him evilly.
"What are you doing?" Elden said slowly flying up to the ceiling. "I have wings remember, you can't get me up here!" He said laughing.
"You really think so?" I said as I sprouted my wings, as my hair turned Sky blue.
Elden held his hands up. "Woah there, you can't fully control those things yet!" He said panicking.
I closed my eyes and focused on Elden, my wings lifted me up fastly, then bolting off the ground, heading straight to Elden like a bullet.
"Slow down!" I heard Elden, but it was too late now I couldn't control them yet.
I was going to smash into his chest, but my energy went down quick, because my wings used too much power. I ended up landing on his chest softly, as my wings went back in, my hair turned back and my eyes closed.
I was so weak, I couldn't move a muscle.
"You idiot..." Elden said softly while holding me tightly making sure I didn't fall. "Don't every use that much energy all in just your wings, it could bring stress, which is bad for the body." He just sighed and flew back down to my bed.
"S...Sorry, I guess I got too carried away..." I said chuckling softly while smiling,
"Idiot." Elden muttered while flying going downstairs to get a wet cloth to put over my head.
I could feel Bengal licking my ankles this time, because I had on ankle socks.
Then Elden came back up from the stairs walking this time with a bucket of water and a white cloth. He ringed out the towel and then gently placed it on my forehead.
I then see him look on my book shelf digging through stuff.
That idiot, I'm going to get him for snooping around in my stuff.
I was too tired to even speak.
He finally found something and sat down on the edge of my bed reading it, as I dozed of with a quick nap.
I sighed in my head. If you could even do that.
I really need to train some more, to get my strength up.
