Eugene: Wow… O_O it's been a while since I wrote a chappie for this story. I wonder how long though..?
Ren: *taps shoulder* Excuse me, but Fabia isn't coming out from under that bed. *turns to under the bed* Fabia! Come out already!
Fabia: *under bed* NO! And you can't make me… TT TT *sob*
Eugene: *sighs* Dude, she'll come out when she's ready… hopefully. Anyway, this chappie's gonna have some romantic parts in it (but not the overly inappropriate sexy ones!… if you know what I mean. ^^"""), just to let ya know. Just be glad that the romantic stuff that I wrote ain't that romantic… well, technically, pretty much. But at least it'll show Ren's sweet and comforting side! ONWARD WITH THE ROMANTICALLY COMFORTING CHAPTER 6!
"Fabia? Fabia… can't you come out, please..? We need to talk.."
Fabia was under the small bed in the spare room she was hiding in. She was huddling very close to her body and she froze, hearing Ren's voice; she was worried that he'll find her and something terrible will happen.. if it's that possible.
Ren looked around trying to find the Neathian princess at the moment, then switched on the small switch lighting the dim ceiling light from above. There were only one thing in the room and that's the bed. The dim light revealed Fabia's Neathian silhouette from under the bed, blurring into a dark shape.
"Fabia?" He realized, he just saw herself, as a Neathian, tucking up her entire body and sobs came out from the folds of her torn yellow dress. He saw pearly tears coming out of her bright green Neathian eyes.
"Go away.. You shouldn't see me like this… I.." She tried to choke out from her tears, but nothing came out after that.
But this time, Ren didn't obey those orders, he just opened up the cover hiding the gap where Fabia was hiding and at that very moment he stretched out his hand to her, he revealed his Gundalian form.
Seeing Ren's Gundalian form… that piercing golden eyes, the gray skin, those fang-like teeth (a few hints of what his Gundalian form looks like) …. that very form startled Fabia at the moment and she tried to back away. Ren started to get impatient.
"Fabia, you shouldn't have cowered like this. If you don't come out, I'll…" He started to say.
"You'll what? Kill me? Like that's ever going to happen, you think that for a Gundalian, you would be the one to inject the pain, but I actually suffered the pain! And you would've never understand how I felt about-" Fabia was about to continue to unleash out the anger and pain of what she had been through (thanks to those bullies..) when Ren swiftly went to Fabia's side and started to kiss her.
His lips brushed against hers in a soft and gentle way that was hard to resist… without giving any thought, Fabia tentatively kissed back, her anger and sadness fading away. After a minute however, she quickly pulled back and find it hard to breathe a little so her breathing got kind of harsh…
"Now tell me, what has gotten into you lately?" Ren stated clearly, regaining his composure.
"I…" Fabia sighed, there's no escape from that tactic now… she might as well confess it. "There are those bullies that can't stop making fun of me! They kept hurting me and.. they tried to force out my true Neathian form… I'm not sure why, but I think it has something to do with how I look as a human."
"How you look as a human? Why would they hurt you for that?" Ren tried to state.
As he said that, Fabia just went silent; she is unsure of that answer. She just ended up crying a bit again. She tried to brush the tears away because she somehow sensed that if she cried fully, Ren might as well go violent against the princess herself. But that didn't happen, however, because he just pulled her into a somewhat sweet embrace. Her head was buried in his black and purple jagged top.
"I'm sorry! But I just feel so-" Fabia tried to choke out a sob. "unappreciated. That's why I never reveal my true Neathian form to you and the brawlers, because if you guys see me like this-" Another sob was choked out again. She sniffled. "I don't know, you'll all just completely ignore me and treat me so badly."
"Fabia.." Ren hid half of his face in her hair, wondering how he should sum up what he really wanted to tell her. He then gently tilted her chin up so that she is completely facing him, Neathian eye to Gundalian eye. "This may be hard for you to believe this but, I think you're still beautiful."
Now that was something that Fabia had never really expected for a Gundalian, or more likely, for Ren to say to someone like her. "Really?" She managed to say.
"Yes. No matter what form you're in, you're still that sweet Neathian princess inside. This doesn't change anything." He answered, ending it with a soft brush from his lips against hers.
When Fabia understood what Ren was actually trying to tell her, she managed to smile at the kiss before pulling away. "You're right. I'm still me, even if my form changes." But then she just realized something. "But what about those bullies? I have to at least teach them a lesson somehow.."
As she said the words, Ren smirked before saying, "Don't worry, Fabia; I have a plan."
