The sun barely peaked over the mountains and they were already on the road, the sky glowed a faint yellow pink from the morning sun. Farkas let out a big yawn as they walked down the road, June looked around seeing a few rabbits hop by and some butterflies. It was a cool breezy morning, the small wind slightly blew her hair past her shoulders.
She shivered a little, June didn't bother changing back into her armor she just kept her dress on. Her armor was worn and needed to be fixed up, she started to regret her decision as the cool wind went right through the thin cloth of the dress and onto her skin. Farkas noticed June shivering and went through his bag. "I think I have a blanket in here somewhere if you want it." Farkas said pulling it out a little. June shook her head. "I'm okay, it will probably get warm through out the day." She said.
Farkas nodded and put the blanket back into his bag. Vilkas looked at them both, he examined June and than slowly looked away. He felt a little foolish from last night, every time he gets some ale into his system he looses control of himself, especially around beautiful woman like June. But that wasn't always true, he ended up drinking so much a few times that he woke up with Njada next to him in bed.
Vilkas wrinkled his nose in disgust as the images started to pop up into his mind, he slightly shook his head forcing them out of his mind. 'Never again..' He thought to himself as he slowly looked down at the ground. The only woman he ever thought about like that was June, other woman didn't interest him now, she was the only one on his mind. He slightly looked to the side at June, she was looking up at the sky.
A small smile appeared on his face, he always liked the way her eyes looked when she gazed off. It always looked like she was in another world when she looked off in the distance. The morning sun began to rise over the mountains, Vilkas examined her eyes. Her eyes almost looked gold with the morning light, he looked back down at the ground as he began to think.
Vilkas knew how he felt for June, he admitted to himself that he had fallen for her. He fell for her when he first laid his eyes on her when she first saved him from a dragon. Another smile appeared on his face as he remembered the way she looked as the glowing dragon soul surrounded her, she looked like a divine that day. Vilkas quickly stopped as he caught a faint smell in the air, it was a familiar smell but one he hadn't smelled in a long time. He couldn't remember who it belonged to but he knew they were being followed.
Farkas saw that his brother had stopped and looked at him a little concerned. "What is it?" He asked examining his brothers face. June stopped walking and looked at Vilkas raising an eyebrow at him. "I think we're being followed.." He said slowly looking towards the trees. Farkas furrowed his eyebrows down and looked in the same direction as Vilkas. Farkas did smell something strange off in the distance but he didn't pay any mind to it, he just assumed it was another traveler.
June looked at the trees and started walking towards them trying to see if anyone was there. Vilkas quickly went after her and grabbed her arm stopping her. "Wait, it could be dangerous." He said keeping his eyes on the trees. June glared at him a little and yanked her arm away. "I can take care of myself." She said annoyed as she walked into the trees.
Vilkas watched her and tensed up once he couldn't see her anymore, Farkas and Vilkas exchanged looks and than looked back at the trees waiting for her to return. A few minutes have passed and Vilkas started to feel un easy that they haven't heard anything from her. Suddenly a loud scream was heard from the trees, it was June's scream.
Vilkas and Farkas bolted into the woods jumping over roots and rocks. Vilkas lost his footing and ended up falling onto the ground, Farkas tripped over him and fell right over him. They both slowly looked up seeing a small rabbit run past them and June was just standing there. "Help its dangerous!" She said laughing at them. Vilkas glared at her and got up pushing Farkas off of him. "That wasn't funny!" He yelled a little.
June crossed her arms and looked away with a smirk. "You're right, it was hilarious." She said laughing. Farkas let out a loud annoyed sigh as he got up from the ground. "I thought you were in trouble!" Vilkas yelled again keeping his glare. June just rolled her eyes and walked away from them back towards the road. "I swear I'm the only one with sense around here.." She mumbled to herself.
Vilkas and Farkas exchanged looks and than quickly followed after her, as they got back onto the road Vilkas stopped again taking one last at the trees. 'I know someone was there..' He thought to himself. He looked at June and Farkas, his eyes widened as he saw that they were already far away from him on the road. He sighed and ran off catching up with them.
Hours have passed by and it was now getting to be in the early afternoon, they stopped for a small break and to eat some lunch. "So how much farther do we have to go before we get to Whiterun?" June asked taking a bite of some bread. "Not far I think, we should get there before late this evening." Farkas answered taking a drink of his water. "I feel like we've been away from Jorrvaskr for weeks." Vilkas said tearing apart some cheese and popping the pieces into his mouth.
Farkas looked up at the sky seeing a couple birds fly across. "I wonder if anything happened while we were gone.." Farkas wondered. "Probably not." June quickly answered him as she leaned back enjoying the newly warm breeze. "Why do you say that?" Vilkas asked furrowing his eyebrows down. "Because you all do the same things all the time, so it's probably exactly the same." She said looking away from him. "What things?" He asked. "Drinking, eating, and sometimes working." She said with a small smirk.
Vilkas quickly glared at her. "The companions work very hard, we do what we can for the people of Whiterun and Skyrim!" He shouted a little aggravated. Farkas suddenly choked on his food and started coughing. Vilkas and June both looked at him and watched him struggling to swallow down his food. Farkas coughed a bit more pounding his chest. "You okay?" Vilkas asked him raising an eyebrow.
Farkas gulped down some water and than looked at them with a panicked look. "I just realized something." He said with a worried tone in his voice. "What?" June asked furrowing his eyebrows down. "We lost all the supplies we got from Riften in the accident.." Farkas said slowly with a frown. June and Vilkas's eyes widened as they quickly looked at each other.
Farkas let out a loud sigh as he rubbed his forehead trying to think. "What should we do.." He mumbled quietly. "Should we... Should we go back?" June slowly asked. Vilkas and Farkas exchanged looks with frowns on their faces. "Well we can't go back to Whiterun with nothing.." Vilkas said scratching his head trying to think of what to do. June got up from the ground and tapped her chin as she was thinking as well. "Are you sure we lost it all?" She asked looking at Farkas.
He nodded. "All that was left from the wreck was some of our things." He said looking at their bags and weapons that were saved. "Why don't we just go back and explain what happened?" June said crossing her arms. "Because we were sent to get supplies to help repair Whiterun with from the dragon attack." Vilkas answered looking up at her. "How do you think the companions will look if we show up with nothing?" He said with a sigh. "I don't really want to go all the way back to Riften though.." Farkas said quietly.
June looked up at the sky watching a couple clouds float by, her eyes widened as she got an idea and quickly looked back at them. "Riverwood is kind of on the way, we'll just have to take another road to get there. Riverwood has some shops and a blacksmith as well, I'm sure there are some supplies we can get there." June explained.
Vilkas and Farkas exchanged looks and than smiled. "Some supplies is better than none, let's do it." Vilkas said quickly getting up and gathering his things. "There should be an intersection on the way to Whiterun with a road that leads to Riverwood." Farkas said as he got up and stretched. They gathered all of their things and started back on the road. 'Will this journey ever end?' June thought to herself letting out a small sigh.
A few more hours have passed and the afternoon seemed to pass by, June looked up seeing that they were beginning to approach Riverwood. She smiled welcoming the site, the rest of the journey was either filled with pointless small talk or just silence. 'It's almost over..' She thought to herself looking around as they entered the small town. There was still plenty of people on the streets talking and still doing their jobs. "June!" She heard a familiar voice call her name.
They all stopped and looked around. "June!" She heard it again. June furrowed her eyebrows down as she looked around carefully. She stopped seeing a young woman waving at her in the distance, it was Camilla Valerius. June remembered that she had helped her by returning the golden claw that had been stolen from her and her brothers shop. She also helped her by telling her that Sven was trying to lie to her and make her hate Faendal.
June smiled a little and waved back, she didn't know her that well but every time she came to Riverwood Camilla always wanted to talk to her. "Who's that?" Vilkas asked raising an eyebrow at June. "Just someone I know." June answered. Camilla quickly ran over with a sweet smile on her face. "June! It's been a long time!" She said with a cheerful voice. "Yeah it has." June said looking away and rubbing the back of her neck.
Camilla looked at Vilkas and Farkas. and smiled. "Hey who are these guys?" She asked in a whisper. Before June could answer Camilla quickly grabbed her arm. "Their so hansom!" She whispered with a giggle. June raised an eyebrow at her and than looked at them both examining them. "Especially him, who's he?" She asked slightly pointing to Vilkas.
June smiled and quickly grabbed Camilla's arm pulling her towards Vilkas. "His names Vilkas and he's single!" June said loudly with a big smile. June pushed Camilla at Vilkas making him quickly catch her to keep her from falling on him. He looked up at June surprised. "You two should get to know each other, I think you look great together." She continued as she gave them both thumbs up.
Camilla quickly looked away slightly blushing but she couldn't hold her smile back. Vilkas than glared at June realizing what she was doing. "Hey I-" He began to speak but June quickly cut him off. "Go on, you two go get to know each other. Farkas and I will get the supplies." She said waving her hand at them. Vilkas opened his mouth to yell at her but he felt a small tug on his arm.
He looked down seeing it was Camilla, she had grabbed his arm and was looking at him with a sweet smile. "Would you like too?" She asked him slightly. "What?" He asked raising an eyebrow. She quickly looked away but kept her sweet smile on her face. "Go for a walk? I would like to get to know you better.." She whispered shyly.
Vilkas just stared at her for a moment, he didn't want to. The only woman he would want to do something like that was June but he didn't want to hurt her feelings, she looked fragile. Vilkas let out a soft sigh and hung his head a little. "Sure, why not." He said giving her a crooked smile. Camilla looked at him with an excited look, Vilkas glared at June one last time and than they both walked away.
June let out a small laugh as she watched them walk away. 'I wonder what Faendal and Sven will think of this..' She wondered with her smile growing as she imagined the look on their faces. "You really had to do that didn't you?" Farkas said trying to hold back his laugh. "I think they make a wonderful couple don't you?" She said with a smirk. "Actually if you didn't know any better you would probably think that they were really together." Farkas said watching June's reaction.
June furrowed her eyebrows down and looked ahead watching them walk away from them, a small frown appeard on her face as she saw that they really did look like a couple. Vilkas's tall muscular form along side Camilla's sweet small body, they did look good together. Just thinking about that made June's stomach twist and turn, her frown grew once realized that the joke had back fired on her. "Come on let's go get the supplies." June quickly said changing the subject. She quickly walked away towards the Blacksmith, Farkas chuckled a little as he followed behind her.
