HI! Thanks for the review. And this chapter is pretty much suckish. Cuz yea... Trigon and Slade are so evil... I feel like smashing their heads until their bones turned into bits.

Love Story

Chapter 13:

Rays of light filtered through the leaves and branches, creating a tapesty of colors. They shone brightly onto the teenagers' eyes.

Rachel let out a soft yawn and snuggled closely into Richard's chest, refusing to wake up.

"Come on, Raven... It's morning..." Richard said huskily and moved slightly.

"Hm..."

"Raven..." Rachel shuddered as Richard's hot breath touched her neck.

"I'm tired..."

"Raven, if you don't get up..." Richard hissed warningly.

Rachel ignored him and he pouted playfully.

"What in the world are you doing?" A loud voice bellowed.

Rachel opened her eyes lazily and Richard and her gasped.

"Unhand my daughter!"

"Father!" Rachel scowled and refuse to move and cuddled against Richard instead.

"Raven! Your father's angry," Richard whispered into her ears.

Trigon grabbed Rachel's arm and yanked it way from Richard.

"Ouch...!" Rachel rubbed the red part of her arm after Trigon released his grasp.

"You're hurting her!"

"And you're not?"

"Slade," Richard hissed.

"Brat!" Slade pounced on Richard but luckily, Richard dodged his punch.

"Slade!"

Slade froze and turned to face Rachel, "Yes, my Princess?"

Trigon interrupted, "Make sure he's sent back to his nest. Oh, and deliver the message," and smirked.

"Father!" Rachel shot him a look and rushed to stop the fighting.

"Can you two stop it?"

Continued fighting.

"This is an order!"

"He started first!'

"He started first!"

Richard and Slade said the same thing at the same time, but both still did not put their guards down. Slade stared at him menancingly.

"Robin... Are you okay?" Rachel darted towards Richard when she saw Richard spitting out blood.

Richard staggered back carelessly and almost fell. It was when Rachel spotted a dagger being stabbed into Richard's stomach. Blood began to flow out of the wound and stained his white shirt. Rachel panicked. She forgot about everything around her, except for Richard.

"Is he going to be all right?"

"He's going to be fine, don't worry too much, Princess."

Rachel eyes wandered over Richard's calm face. She let out a deep sigh.

"Father! He's not fully recovered from the injuries he'd sustained that day! How could you do this to him?" Rachel was so pissed off when she saw her father standing outside her room.

He shrugged, "And shouldn't he be in the medical bay instead of you room?"

"And if you did not order Slade to beat him up, would he ended up wounded and be in my room?"

Trigon's face reddened as he could not think of anything reasonable to say, "What is this? Are you retoring me?"

Rachel remained emotionless even though he glared at her.

"Princess, Prince Richard will wake up soon," the doctor reassured her as he left her room. "Thankfully the stab isn't as deep as we thought it would be. Princess, may I leave now?"

Rachel heaved a sigh of relieve and permitted the doctor to leave.

"I'll tell Commander Wilson to look after hi, no big deal. I still have a counrty to rule," Trigon deadpanned.

"No thank you."

"Then I'll ask him to stand by your door and when the brat has awaken, he'll sent him back."

"Why are you so eager to sent him back?"

"No. Particular. Reason," Trigon's lips curved upwards slyly.

"R...Raven...?"

Rachel hurried to Richard's side and hugged him when he woke, "Thank God! You're awake."

Richard smirked, "So, you've already forgiven me?"

Rachel came back to her senses and deadpanned, "Hugging you does not mean I have forgiven you."

"Aww... I don't even know that Princess Rachel is so shy girl until she does not dare admit that she still love me," Richard smirked as he teased her.

"What? Is not that I don't dare, I just don'tlike admitting it," Rachel blushed and looked away.

"Ha! Caught you!" Richard wrapped his arms around her waist.

Realizing what she had just said, she blushed even harder. "You've just admit that you still love me."

"Stop being so childish," Rachel tried to cover up.

"Hmm... Let me think about it..." he pretended to think. "Nope, until you admit."

"What?"

"Stop trying to feign ignorance."

"Did I?" Rachel mimicked his actions when he pretended to think.

"Oh yes you did," Richard tickled her. He knew she was ticklish.

"Stop... hahaha... Stop! I mean it... hahaha..." Rachel blurted out.

"What the hell happened here?" Slade suddenly opened the door.

Slade had been talking to Trigon about their 'wonderful plan' when they heard muffled laughter coming from the room.

"Slade!"

"Yes, My Majesty?"

"Sent him back." he pointed to Richard. "And you, kiddo, stay away from my daughter."

Trigon once again dragged Rachel away as Slade hauled Richard out of the room. Rachel struggled not to cry. We'd gottten so far, why must things be so difficult for us? We'd just get together agian, why must people threaten to break us apart like the last time? I'd never tell you this before, but you are really everything to me. And... I love you.

How dramatic is this... This is so pathetic and is getting from bad to worst. Yupp, I know... I almost failed my English exam. And my Mathematics aren't any better. MY GOD! I still have a Mathematics project to complete. bye.
