“Fira slow down,” Tommy said as he caught up to Fira. “Why did you take off like that?”
Fira stopped and said, “I’m sorry, I just…just…I…” Fira started crying and went under water as far down as she could. Tommy Took off after her and grabbed her arm and pulled her up.
“It’s okay I know what you mean, but you know I don’t feel right because of…” Tommy said.
“Of royalty, I know, but I love you and I want to love you but you won’t let me, I got to go take Fireball home,” Fira said as she swam to the shore grabbed her dress and took off into the forest. Tommy went to run after her when Fikia grabbed his arm.
“If your going to go look for her you should take Fireball back first and I’ll cover for you two if you guys don’t get back in time,” Fikia said.
Tommy smiled and said, “Thanks.” He swam to the edge of the lake grabbed his stuff and jumped on Fireball and whistled. He got to he stables and screamed, “Ryan!” When Ryan came outside Tommy told him, “Put Fireball in the stable please, I have to go get Fira.” Ryan nodded and took Fireball in to the stables and Tommy dashed off into the forest. He finally found Fira under a tree. “Fira I’m sorry,” he said to her.
Fira looked up at him with teary eyes, “It’s not your fault. It’s mine, I just keep thinking maybe you will change your mind and be my husband but I should know that your not. I just don’t like to give up.”
As Fira looked back down to the ground, Tommy came down to her and said, “I love you, I want to be your husband but you deserve royalty and you know your mother would like you to marry royalty. I don’t want to make your mother mad or you sad. I really am sorry.” Tommy leaned up Fira’s face and kissed her on the lips. Fira went to push away when her heart took over and her arm went around his neck and she just kissed him. When they broke away, Tommy and Fira just smiled at each other. “What do you think your mother would say if I did marry you?”
“Do you think I would really care?” Fira asked as she leaned next to Tommy.
Tommy pulled her close to him and said, “I think in your heart you would but your heart might just hide it.”
“You may be right, but I wouldn’t care much because as long as I would be with you my heart would be happy,” Fira told him.
“After a while you would miss her, I’m sure of it,” Tommy said. When he looked down to Fira he noticed that she was asleep. “You had a rough day, my lovely. Rest all you need.” He kissed her forehead and fell asleep himself.
“WHAT? WHERE AM I? WHAT TIME IS IT? OH NO MY MOTHER IS GOING TO KILL ME! WHY AM I TALKING TO MYSELF?” Fira screamed when she woke up.
Tommy came from behind the tree, “Not sure, but you’re here in the forest, time is uh…about 9 o’clock, no she’s not, and what’s what?”
“Tommy? WHY THEY HELL ARE WE HERE?” Fira screamed.
Tommy looked at her and said, “Don’t you remember?”
“Yeah but, I thought you might have taken me back to the castle,” Fira said.
“I didn’t want to disturb you. Well let’s go ahead and go, Fikia won’t be able to cover for us forever,” Tommy told her.
“Okay,” Fira said. After a while of them walking through the forest Fira ass, “Where’s Fireball?”
“He’s in the stable. Fikia didn’t want to try to put him in the stable so I had to take him back then come get you,” Tommy told her. When they got out of the forest they heard a bunch of screaming coming from the stable.
“Who’s that?” Fira asked.
“Not sure, let’s go see,” Tommy said. When they got into the stable, Nicoliyias, Ryan, and some other girl were there.
“Great more people to destroy my love. Oh Ryan just run away with me and we can be happy,” the girl said.
“Who are you? And can somebody tell me what is going on here?” Fira asked.
“My name is Anyina and it’s none of your business!” Anyina said.
“It is my business of everything that happens in this stable, or must I prove that to you,” Fira said as she lit a fireball in her hand.
“Oh your highness, I’m sorry I didn’t recognize you in that common dress. My love and I want to run away together, but this…” Anyina said.
“How many times can I tell you I don’t love you? I already lost count at 100 and I barely met you today,” Ryan told Anyina.
“Oh my dear you must be sick, I will take care of you,” Anyina said.
Fira stepped in front of Anyina, “He’s not sick, leave him alone.”
“I’m sorry your highness but you are wrong,” Anyina said.
“Anyina she is right. Please leave me alone, I love someone else and I’ll prove it,” Ryan said as he got up. He walked over to Nicoliyias, pulled her close and kissed her, and then surprisingly he knelt down and said, “Will you marry me?”
“NOOOOO!!!” Anyina screamed.
“He told you he didn’t love you. Yes Ryan I will,” Nicoliyias said, as her heart glowed inside.
“I will have you Ryan, and you will love me,” Anyina said as she stormed out of the stable.
“Okay…that was weird but Fira you might want to hurry to the castle,” Tommy said.
Fira looked at him then screamed, “Oh yeah, my mother! I have to hurry.” Fira ran to the wall, climbed the wall, and jumped in her window in about a minute and a half.
“I still don’t know how she gets up there so fast,” Ryan said.
“So I guess I’ll leave you lovebirds alone,” Tommy said as he left the stable.
As he left he heard Ryan say, “Goodbye two night Romeo.” After a while of walking around he realized what Ryan had meant by that. He had spent two nights with Fira and he had only been there two nights. He loved her with all his heart but he wasn’t royalty. He didn’t want Fira to lower herself to his level.
At around one in the afternoon, Fira came running out to Tommy.“Hurry we got to go!” Fira screamed as she ran by Tommy and back into the house. Without thinking Tommy ran after Fira. He had no idea what was wrong. When he got inside he found Fira, two girls, and a guy laughing.
One girl said, “Two minutes, not bad!”
“Only because I had to find him,” Fira said still laughing. The guy stopped laughing.
“Okay, okay, girls let tell him what’s going on,” he said. They all looked over to Tommy he had this face on him as if he just seen a purple snake kissing a green elephant, terrified and disturbed.
Fira laughed, “Okay, so Tommy this is Crimson, Ivy, and Angel. They’re good friends of mine. We had this little game that we just had to play on you…”
“You mean to tell me that there is nothing wrong here!!!” Tommy screamed.
Angel laughed, “Of course not silly!”
“Hey don’t worry about it they got me too,” Crimson said. “But I had 5 minutes because I didn’t want to run,” Crimson let out a huge laugh.
“Angel almost had me but I was too busy trying to kiss her,” Ivy said with a giggle.
Tommy got his confused look on his face again, “So you and Angel are gay?”
“Of course not silly! Angel’s the only one who is gay. I’m bi,” Ivy said.
“Look let me make this simple for you. Angel is gay, Ivy is bi, and crimson he is as straight as a stick,” Fira said.
Crimson put a pout face on, “Hey! I’m more like a pole. You can bend a stick.”
“You’re not… are you?” Tommy asked Fira in question.
“No but I have kissed every one of them,” Fira said as Tommy face changed so she added, “We were bored so we were playing spin the bottle!” Tommy face relaxed.
"So I'm gonna leave now my mother is begging me to get this dress done. Buy guys," Fira said as she ran up the stairs.
