Heres another Chapter written at 4 am, once again I'm sorry for the sloppiness, also I added in Cullen because I am a weak weak women and always find myself wanting to chose both of them. But I have all these other thingys in my head that I will probably post later!

"Ah-neth erra?"

Laughing Ellana shook her head, she had been teaching Josephine some Elvish phrases lately, and it often took the Ambassador several minutes to pronounce a word correctly.

"Ahneth ara" she repeated, slowing down exaggerating the ending.

"Ah-neth ara?"

After a nod of approval Josephine smiled graciously. "And that means hello?"

Shrugging the herald smiled, "Well it actually means; My Safe Place." Seeing Josephine's confused expression she quickly rephrased herself, "But yes! It means Hello!"

Josephine sighed in relief, throwing her head back against her chair. "I must be the worst student you've ever had." She laughed jokingly.

"Well technically you're the only student I've ever had" Ellana replied.

Looking at the candle on Josephine's desk she frowned. It had been freshly lit when they started their lesson, but now it was more a puddle of wax then anything.

"How long do you think we've been in here?" she asked.

"Oh I would say at least over two-" Realizing what she was saying Josephine stopped herself.

"I guess time goes by faster when you're having fun" Ellana chuckled, getting up she felt all the blood rush to her legs.

"Oh I have to get to work, there are so many things to do! Herald, I thank you for teaching me, but I must return to my du- Oh maker…" Josephine apologized, quickly gathering her paperwork into a neat pile.

Ellana laughed again, and excused herself from the room. She had her own plans anyways.

Walking out of the chantry, she made her way through the town, looking at the dimly lit houses as she past. It was at least midnight, and everyone was asleep, making it the perfect time for her to sneak out.

Ever since she arrived she wasn't allowed to venture very far past the gates, unless (as Cassandra put it) she had at least three companions with her. Which basically meant if she ever wanted to do anything, Varric Cassandra and Solas had to come with. So much for privacy.

But tonight the townspeople were all inside, either sleeping or drinking.

Reaching the front of the town, she pushed open the gates, only to realize that they were shut tight.

Grumbling Ellana cracked her knuckles, she had other ways of getting out. Balancing on the nearest loose panel, she scurried her way up the wall, over to the other side. Sometimes she wondered if Haven wasn't a prison.

Just as she was about to drop down a voice broke through the silence.

"Ellana?"

Trying to act casual, she smiled awkwardly. "Commander"

"May I ask what you're doing?"

She kept her shaky smile, and shrugged. "Oh you know, just going to the bathroom." Yes that was the perfect excuse, what could he say to that?

"There are bathrooms inside the chantry"

Shit. "Oh I guess I forgot, my mistake"

Rolling his eyes Cullen walked towards her, offering to help her down. Frowning Ellana dropped down for him to catch her.

She had to let out a gasp as his hands caught around her around the waste. He held her in front of him for a few seconds, just close enough that she could feel his breath against her skin. He must have noticed because after quickly planting her down on the ground he took a step back, arms locked at his side.

They stood there for a few seconds before she remembered where she was supposed to be. "Well Commander, it was nice seeing you out he-"

Raising a brow he rose up the lock, and pushed open the gates. "Aren't you coming back in?"

"Oh! Um, in a minute, you know I just want to wait a bit in case…" she trailed off.

"In case?" His lips started to curl into a smirk.

By the dread wolf, now he was making fun of her. "In case something happens out here!"

"Like?"

"Like if someone tries to sneak out."

"Hm, and who do you suppose would try to leave at this time of night?" He was definitely smirking now.

"Solas! He um has a problem with sleep walking at night, and I just want to make sure he doesn't go anywhere." She lied, desperately trying to think of something.

His smile dropped, "Oh, cant he find someone else to watch him?"

"It's actually my shift tonight, Varric handled it yesterday, I guess he almost got to the stables" Ellana continued, not making eye contact.

"Well do you want any company?" Cullen asked, looking hopeful.

Now it was her turn to step back. Did he just ask to keep her company? Looking up at his face she took it as a yes. Gods, how was she supposed to say no?"

"No I th-" she stopped when her eyes caught his. "How about tomorrow?"

Smiling proudly Cullen straightened his back, "It's a date, I mean n-not a date date" A blush rose to his cheeks when she smiled at him. "Makers breath. I'll see you tomorrow." Coughing he walked back into the town, shutting the gates behind him.

Ellana watched him leave with a small smile on her face before she heard another voice.

"Sleep walking?"

"Solas" she greeted, eyes glued to the ground. How long had he been listening?

"I'm sure you could have done better then that" He pointed out. "But nonetheless we should get going, you've already dilly dallied enough"

Ellana wanted to protest but she had to agree with him. "So where are we going?" she asked, changing the topic.

Solas replied with a smile, and motioned towards the forest, leading the way.

They walked for some while before he looked back at her, "Can I ask, what do you think of the Commander?"

"Cullen?" she asked.

"That is his name." Solas confirmed, pushing a wall of branches away so she could go in front of him.

Passing him Ellana shrugged, "He's very brave, but also very lonely. Kind of like you." She laughed, "But he's a good advisor, and a kind friend."

Solas pondered on this for a second before she spoke again. "Why do you want to know anyways?"

Keeping a straight face he nudged her towards a trail of wildflowers. "I'm curious, you two seem to get along very well."

Looking back at him she frowned, she sensed the edge in his voice. "Were not together," she muttered.

Helping her over a fallen tree, he stared at her.

"I know that's what you were asking," she added, causing him to frown.

Shaking his head they were silent for the remainder of the walk.

Ok so thats that! I'm really happy some of you like this, and I plan on making more even if only one person would read it. Remember to Review and lave your thoughts below!
