CHAPTER FOUR

Eugene/Flynn's POV

I woke up early, I probably had only a few hours of sleep. By the way my eyes was blurry and yawning every second I sat up, looking around the cave. Max was still asleep, the firewood was nothing but ashes, and the sun was rising. It was shining through the trees. I looked towards Rapunzel's direction. She was not there, not even Pascal.

"Rapunzel?" I whispered as I was standing up. I walked out of the cave and then I saw a trail of flowers, same from the her braid. My eyes followed them until I spotted Rapunzel, sitting on a rack un-braiding the smallest braid as she was gazing at the little pond. Pascal on the other hand was in the grass. I hardly noticed him.

"Good morning." I said, breaking the silence.

Her head jerked up. "Oh, Good morning Eugene." she smiled. "Did you have a good night sleep?"

I nodded. "So why did you unbraid your hair?" I kicked my ankle, with her noticing. It was a stupid question.

"I have to because my mother will be curious, after all she doesn't know I left the tower. Yet." she finished her braid and stood up. Her hair was really wavy. She was still beautiful, without the braid. I kept on looking at her. Everything was muted.

"Eugene?"

I was back in reality, "huh, sorry I didn't hear you."

She sighed, "I said, we should get going. It's still early." My heart sank. Did she have to go home?

We nodded. "I almost forgot." I said pointing at her really long golden hair.

She chuckled, "Me too."

We smiled and walked back to the cave. When we got back I saddled Max up and Rapunzel was stroking him.

"I would like to ride Maximus. One last time". I stared at Max and he nodded with agreement. I picked Rapunzel up and let her settle on the saddle while I grab the reins.

"You okay?" I asked. She gave two thumbs up. I started to walk, leading Max out of the cave.

I took a glace back of the cave, thinking about everything from the first day to the last.

I still can't believe that it's time to bring her home. I looked at Rapunzel, she was giggling again from riding Max. I smiled.

"Do you want to go faster?" I asked.

Still smiling, shaking her head. "No, I want to take every last moment outside."

I shrugged and continued to walked, trying to put the negative to the side. Until I saw familiar things that Rapunzel and I'd past during our journey, memories were flooding back. Then I saw it; a little cave blocked by vines and right on the other side is her tower. I glanced at Rapunzel, who was staring behind her, back at the forest.

I walked through the vines, not minding them hitting me. Then I stopped, before the cave ended. I saw grass and flowers. I heard birds chirping and I heard the waterfall. I took a deep breath and continued. The sun shined on us, warming our faces. The soft summer breeze blew through us, softly and then I looked straight ahead, looking up and saw the tower, still standing as it was three days ago.

I sighed as I slowly lead Max to the tower. As we were close, I helped Rapunzel down from Max.

"Thanks for everything. Maximus. You are the best horse that the kingdom could ever had." she smiled, but almost frowning. She stroked his snout and wrapped her arms around his neck, also stroking his mane. She released and faced me.

"So...how are you going to get up there?" I asked.

"Same way I came down." she answered, looking up.

Confused, I looked up too, at the hook. "How's your hair going to reach that." I said pionting to the hook.

"Hang on." she took a few steps to the side and a few back. Her eyes were targeting the hook. She lassoed her hair and it wrapped around the hook. She started climb. She was great at it and reach the window and went inside.

"Okay, I'm going to pull you up." she yelled from above, no table to see her. I waited and soon, her golden locks came down and I grab some while she pulled me up.

when I reached the window, it stepped inside and unhooked her hair. I looked around the tower, everything was the same.

"Home sweet home." Rapunzel said breaking the silence. I nodded. We sighed at the same time. We stared into each others eyes. "So what now?" she asked.

I didn't know what to say. She spend three days in the outside world and now she back home. Doing the same things everyday. I just shrugged.

"At least Mother is not home..." she said.

"Do you want me to stay. Not to live here, but just to give you company." I felt bad. But what can I do? Just bring her home and say 'nice being with you Blondie' and run away. No. I loved her and I going to tell her before I go. I care about her and I'm going to leave her alone. Not now.

She gave me a nod. "For a few minutes. Would you mind helping me clean up. I didn't do my chores for three days after all. It looks dusty."

"I would love to help you clean up dust" she chuckled as she grabbed the broom and handed it to me. Pascal dragged the dust pan and I swept the dirt towards it. Rapunzel grabbed the feather duster and cleaned everything. When we finished that, I helped her mopped the tower too. I grabbed the mop and she was sliding around with her funny brush shoes...or mop shoes. Okay they were shoes. It was fun but we finished. The whole tower was spotless. I looked at the clock, it was noon. I need to get going. Her Mother could be arriving any time soon.

"So I guess this I goodbye..." she frowned. I tipped her head up, making her look at me. I gave her a comforting smile as I put my hands on her shoulder. I needed to tell her how I feel about her.

"Rapunzel I..." I swallowed. Why couldn't I say anything. I'm choking on my own air. Probably because she'll miss me, or want me to run away with her, or she might not like me at all. "I..." her eyes were staring at me wait for what I had to say. "I...I promise I'll visit you."

"You promise Eugene?" I nodded. "Promise me you'll visit me when you can."

I took one of her hand and rubbed it. "I promise. I will each week. I will not let you wait months or years. I promise."

"Thank you." we smiled. I was lost in thought until I felt something wrap around my waist. It was a hug. She was giving me a hug. It was a warm embrace. I never felt one like it in years. She buried her face in my chest. Was going to miss me? I couldn't tell. "Thank you for everything. It was the best thing that I could ever get."

"You're welcome." I said quietly. She released her embrace and smiled at me again. She picks Pascal from the green chair and places him on her shoulder. "Oh yeah...goodbye Pascal. You are a interest frog...I Mean Chameleon."

Rapunzel smiled and sighed. I did too. We stared back into each others eyes. There was a big pause.

"So this is goodbye, I guess?" she asked again.

"I'm afraid so. For now." she nodded and I walked to the window. She wrapped her hair on the hook and threw it out the window, till it touch the ground. I grab some of her locks and sat down on the window, about to leave. "Bye Rapunzel."

"Goodbye, Eugene." she took a step back as I was about to go down. I looked one more time in her tower and then I looked at the grass below. I was about slide down. Then I heard her voice yell.

"Wait Eugene. Come back in." I listened to her orders and stepped back inside. I looked confused when she walked to the staircase. She opened one of stair and pulled something out. She truned back around. "You almost forgot this." she handed me an object. I looked down.

It was my satchel. My eyes widen at the bag, then Rapunzel, then the bag, then Rapunzel. I totally forgot about it. But how could I forget about it, after all that's how this whole journey begin.

"Everything is in there..." she explained.

"Oh...uh...thank you." I put the satchel over my shoulder, not even looking inside. It didn't care about it anymore. Nothing.

"I guess you can go now." she insisted.

"Oh yes..." I walked back to the window and Rapunzel did the same as before. And I grabbed the hair. "Goodbye" I said.

She waved, "goodbye." she whispered to low.

I waved back, took a step forward and I slid down her long golden locks. My feet touched the ground. I sighed, not even daring myself to look up. I looked at the satchel then Max. I walked to him and smiled.

"She's settled now..." Max neighed. "So, she I get a head start and you run after me, trying to drag me to prison?" Max shook his head 'no'. "shall we walk back to the kingdom and return the crown?" Max shook his head 'yes', but his face looked shocked. "I don't want it anymore. I'm Eugene not Flynn. Can't you see that Max, I've changed." it was true. I'm tired of thieving every single day of my life. I don't care about jewels or private islands. I only cared about my new dream. Rapunzel.

Max nodded and I grabbed the reins and began to walk towards the cave. As we were back in the forest, I felt like I forgot something...

Rapunzel's POV

I looked back outside. I noticed that Eugene was walking to the cave, going back to his normal life. That is what I supposed. Probably when he disappears, he might go get his own island with the object inside his satchel. He might never come back. He might forget about me in two days. I know he was nice to me in all but he has is own life and I have mine. I can't make him visit me for the rest of his life. But I feel like...he cares about me.

I stared at Eugene and Max as they walked through the cave. I didn't see them after that.

"Goodbye, Eugene Fitzherbert." I murmured.

I look back in my home. Staring at the paintings. Including the one above the fireplace. Me looking at the lanterns floating in the sky. I thought back from that night as I wrap my arms around myself. I feel...alone. I sat on the chair where I had tied Eugene up. My arms still embracing me. I felt like I want to cry but I couldn't. But why do I want to cry?

I sighed. Sitting there for a moment, I reached in my dress pocket and pulled out a purple fabric. The kingdom flag. It remind me of Eugene, after all he gave it to me. Still holding on the flag, I wrapped my arms around my knees that were tucked to my chest. I buried my face also in my knees.

Why was I acting like this?

I was breathing heavy. Inhaling and exhaling every second. Pascal, who was still on my shoulders squeaked asking what was wrong.

"It's okay Pascal, I'm just tired." I smiled to show him I was okay. I placed my chin on my knees and sighed, staring at the room. I looked back at the flag. I was pretending that I'm back at the kingdom. I closed my eyes and I was listening to the music. I was dancing, feeling the stone road beneath my feet, smiling to everyone I see.

It was quiet again. It was silent. No music, laughter, nothing. I was back at the tower. Heard nothing but my own breathing. Then I heard someone calling.

"Rapunzel, let down you haaaaiiiiirrr."

I gasped, Mother was home...

Dun dun dun...Cliffhanger.

So how do like it? I'm sorry it was more of Eugene's POV than Rapunzel's.
