(Bloom POV)
Am I happy that Sky is with me right now, NO!... If I am honest with myself…yes. I mean I would rather another companion but it beats being alone. And if my injuries become too much, he can help.
Last night was weirdly nice. Sky and I never really had a deep conversation like that before. I opened up, but maybe too much. I know though what I said was true, I'm not going to be lying to myself of what I used to want. But things have changed, yeah life on earth was a billion times less complicated but I know who I am now. Or at least I use to…
We're walking again. I keep my head straight, hands on backpack straps. Sky I swear takes a glance at me every minute or so. It's like he wants to say something, but doesn't and its starting to annoy me.
"Sky is there a problem?" I ask glancing over after ducking under a vine.
"No… Fine, it's just do you know where you are going." I roll my eyes.
"Yeah, only a couple more minutes to go okay." I reassure.
When we get to the tiki house by the shore of a beach, Sky looks unconvinced.
"So this is where Kira lives…." Sky blatantly states.
"Yep. So you cool to wait here a bit." I say shortly, and then start walking ahead. Sky then grabs my wrist and yanks me back. I yelp from the pain in my stomach.
"What do you mean wait? I'm coming with you." Sky says strongly still having his hand clamped around my wrist.
"Sky…" I say pinching the ridge of my noise." Believe me I want you to come in to, but Kira isn't a very lots of people person, especially people she doesn't know. She won't hurt me."
Sky looks sceptical. "Bloom I don't think-"
"Just wait here I will be quick, Gosh I can take care of myself." I shriek and yank my wrist free and go see Kira.
(Sky POV)
So Blooms definition of quick is not that accurate. Half an hour of waiting is not quick. I want to go check on her to see if she is alright. But if she is, it would do more harm than good.
5 minutes later when I decided I have had enough of this and about to go in, Bloom appears out the door. An old lady accompanies her. Short, with long white hair, a face that is fragile but kind. She talks to Bloom with a smile; they both are pretty chipper with each other. Bloom then squizzes who I'm guessing is Kira, hand and walks back to me while Kira steps into her small home and closes the door.
"What are you waiting for, let's get going." She says and walks past me, it takes me a bit to register.
"Hang on, not until you tell me firstly what this was all about and secondly why it took so damn long."
"You know Sky, I can keep walking and you can keep talking, hope you make it back to Eraklyon safely… by yourself."
I grumble and can't take her little mind games any more. I run behind her and yank her backpack off. I then stand still and hold it up in there air. If she was capable of shooting daggers from her eyes the look she gave me could have proven it. She screams and claws for it. Although she soon holds her injured side and growls.
"Give that back to me, you dickhead." She shrieks and with one hand continues to reach up for it and I move it back and forth over her head. She looks like a tabby cat following a string, I can't help but chuckle. I get another death stare.
"Not until you tell me what I want to know about you little quest to Kira that was so important." I say still waving the bag around and it nearly hits a tree.
"Just…Just be careful with that Sky." She looks concerned and holds her hands out, easing me. I raise an eyebrow.
"What in the bag Bloom?" She gives me an unimpressed look.
"Something if you break I would probably burn your eyes out." She warns and I laugh.
"Oh yeah… let's take a look…" I say walking around her and starting to bring the bag down from above my head.
"No" She yells and pounces to me but I quickly yank the bag free and run through the jungle. My head is dodging low vines and tree trunks. I can hear Bloom cursing my name as she somehow runs after me.
Then out of the blue, fire whooshes past me and lands in a big purple flower. And pollen shoots out like there is no tomorrow. I cough and splatter and try to keep running through the mists of it. I can hear Bloom laughing in the back ground. I still though mange to run without her catching up.
I see a loose vine rope ahead and yank it down sending water sparring down from above. I hear Bloom gasp and find myself laughing. And take a quick glance back to see her dripping wet but her face has a mischievous smile on it. I then turn around and trip over a fallen log. Then I hear Bloom's hysterical laughing as she catches up to me lying on the ground. She runs past and grabs her backpack. I then bolt up and go after her she must be tired because he is a lot slower than usual and I reach out and try to grab the bag from her side but in the process trip over a vine this time and topple on her.
Somehow she lands on her back and I fall on top of her . Her head is to the side and she coughs and laughs.
"You bloody idiot." She giggles and then our eyes meet , our faces inches apart. Her smile soon fades and there we are staring into each other's eyes. But Bloom doesn't make me get up, she has a soft expression on her face and in that moment I make a mistake, something came over me. I lean in a bit closer, she lowers her eyes to my lips and she brings her head up until out lips meet. Sparks of energy course through me, like I have never felt before. But then all to quickly she pulls away, and her hands go to my sides pushing me off her.
I get up and so does she. Oh shit, I just kissed Bloom, Sky what the hell where you thinking. You have a fiancée, and now your kissing the girl who dumped you for a real reason you don't even know of…. But it's Bloom…
Bloom looks flustered and grabs her backpack and pulls something out of it. It's a portal pod and she chucks it to me.
"This is so your can get home… thank you for your help." She says and she turns around and keeps walking thought the jungle not even looking back.
I AM SO SORRY. I will try and keep my updates more frequent now( two or three days apart), that I am finally on holidays. I had exams and homework and this week doing community service. But if this story does well I have decided to write a third story/ book TRIQUEL. But before that might do a short story in-between.
But again so sorry, review, follow and favourite and promise to update soon as possible.
LOVE U All!
