Chapitre 35: S2: Chapter 15
A few minutes later, C/N comes outside and stands beside you.
You remain silent at first and then clear your throat. "Sooo, how was the talk?", you ask sounding unnecessarily awkward. You hear him choke down a laugh.
"What's so funny?" you ask.
"Are you jealous?" he asks.
"No." is all he hears from you before you go deep into thought.
"Am I really jealous? No. Obviously not. I just felt that those two need their time considering their whole family was killed and they are the only surviving ones. They haven't seen each other in a looong time too. So yeah, I'm not jealous." you think, folding your arms subconsciously.
"Hehe, you became jealous when she hugged me. Didn't you?" he doesn't give up.
"I did not." you feel hotness on your face.
"I swear, if this guy's notices my red face.." you think, closing your eyes.
"Then why are you turning red?" he teases.
You open your mouth to say something but words don't come out. In the end, you just sigh.
"Aww.. You actually became jealous over me?" he says and hugs you from behind.
You give in, even though you weren't jealous.
"I wish we could go back, Why can't all this just be a weird nightmare?" he whispers.
"Well, we have to accept the fact that this isn't a nightmare. I got to know a lot of things that can help us transmigrate back to our world. We will return back, all four of us." you say.
"Alright, tell me everything you know."
You both go back inside and with Elowen's help, explain how Ramon is after them and how Wren is going to be helping them.
"Woah.. How did you even get your uncle to help us?" he asks you.
"Pretty coincidental. He was trying to stop the hunt for you all and so was I. And after a two meetings maybe, we became closer and then I got involved too." you answer.
"Let's have dinner now. And Alaric, you can stay with me." Elowen says.
"Oh, I shouldn't trouble you more than I already have. My injuries will heal soon. I should head out." he replies.
"You shouldn't leave at this time. And now that I think about it, it isn't safe for you to stay with me because other servants barge in all the time. And I don't want to trouble Nevil with all this either. What should we do now?" Elowen sits down.
"Um, it's actually fine with me to have him here. My room is pretty big and nobody barges in. So he would be safer here." you suggest, trying to get C/N to stay.
"Oh no. We can't trouble you with that. Say something, Alaric." she stands up and hits C/N lightly on the shoulder.
C/N remains quiet.
"Mavis. Erm.. It's fine. Don't worry about it." you say.
Elowen thinks for some time.
"Alright.." she sighs.
After dinner:
"Okay then Alaric. Don't trouble Nevil. And behave yourself." Elowen says and leaves.
"Whoo. How did I end up staying at my enemy's place?" C/N laughs.
"Shut up." you say and sit down on your bed.
"So.. How have you been? Probably not good without me." he sits beside you.
"Heh, it's really weird C/N. First, I ended up meeting someone weird at the hunt. He knew my name. He knew that I'm Y/N. And then, I met that old woman who told me about all this back in Japan. She told our destiny will unfold and shit like that... I just don't have a good feeling about it." you say.
"We should go and meet that old lady. She might be able to tell us something about going back." he suggests.
"I mean yeah, she is the one who told us about Pethra in the first place. Wait! What about the old man you met?" you ask.
"I don't know. I last saw him in my world." he answers.
He lies down on the bed. He looks at you and continues to stare till you look back at him. "What?" you ask laughing.
"It feels weird to look at someone else's face even when I know it's actually you inside."
"Hmm, true.." you say. "Our ages don't even match with the people we are in." C/N says.
"Y/B already left and I feel lonely already." you say softly.
"Don't worry. I think I'll be with you for some time." he opens his arms and gestures for you for a hug.
You smile and lie on top of him. "You make me feel so safe." you whisper.
You feel his stiffen and laugh again.
He loses some tension after hearing you laugh and says, "I love holding you like this. Sometimes, I just want to stay in your arms and never move."
You remain quiet and hold his hand lightly. He tightens his grip around your hand.
You wake up with a knock on the door and find yourself still in C/N's arms.
C/N opens his eyes because of the little movement.
"Good morning.." he says, smiling. "Good morning. We should get up, I heard a knock on the door." you say and get up.
"Nevil, can I come in?" you hear Elowen outside.
C/N moves and sits on a nearby chair.
"Uh, yeah Elo-Mavis. Come in." you stutter.
Elowen enters the room and immediately closes the door behind her. "I hope he didn't trouble you last night." she says looking at C/N.
"Oh no, not at all." you say.
"Hmm.. Where did he sleep?" she asks looking around.
You both remain quiet and C/N breaks the silence. "I couldn't really catch any sleep at night so I came and sat here. Turns out a little while later, I did fall asleep."
She sighs.
"Did she believe that? "you think.
"Nevil, I'll help you get ready in the second room. Alaric, freshen up here and inform me if someone's at the door." she instructs and drags you into the second room.
"Alright." he answers and sneakily waves at you.
