"Well, I better get used to being tormented" Michael said,

"Do not worry, it is just for the day, " she replied,

​​

'Really?" He asked,

"No chance, " she responded, laughing,

"Fine you know what you can surely have it your way I have no problem with that as long as you keep smiling" he said and she blushed, what she did not realize is that Cecile saw that.

While they were eating she noticed a few girls were looking at Michael and she gave them the death stare and he saw.

"You scared them away, why?" he asked,

"Because they are not good for you so i did what i thought was right, i do not need anyone's permission" she responded and he smiled,

"Are you jealous? " he asked,

"What? " she asked,

"He asked if you are jealous" Cecile responded,

"Why would I be jealous? " she asked,

"Just do not turn into a player, " she responded as she got up and left with her ice cream.

"What's up with her?" Michael asked,

"I think a memory of Al must have popped up" Cecile responded,

"If that guy was alive, I hate him because of him she cannot love me" Michael said,

"I am glad that you are not blaming her, she is fragile she looks tough on the outside though" Cecile replied.

"Yeah, that she is now what about you and Cassius? " he asked,

"I really like him even though he still have a little feeling for her highness, but I think he is perfect for me and they say someone like me can't love or be loved" she responded.

Michael smiled " well, I am not going to give up, I will keep fighting for her " Michael said,

"Good do not worry, I will help you top, now go after her I think she will be heading to the spirit forest now, go on" Cecile replied and Michael went after her.

He walked for a while, but instead of him following her, she was following him.

"Are you looking for someone idiot? " She asked as she stood under the blossom tree in the magical forest.

He turned and looked at her with a smile.

" I was looking for, you darling, " he responded and she swallowed nervously,

"Why? " she asked,

"I want to uh... Keep you safe, " he responded,

'I can protect myself, thank you, " she said and he looked at her sharply.

"Okay, go on spill why are you really here?" she asked as she walked along the blossom trees and looked at them as the petals fell.

"It is beautiful here, i did not notice it before because of what was happening but now... I can see why you risked it to save the forest, " he said and she smiled,

"He is learning, that's good, maybe i will irritate you a bit " she said to herself.

"You know Michael, you would be an awesome brother, " she said and he remembered his sister then frowned,

"Oh no i hurt his feeling, " she said to herself as she went to him and placed her hand on his face.

"I am sorry, i just wanted to pick a fight" she said and he laughed,

"Got ya" he said.

"You...." she replied, then turned away and he hugged her from behind.

She the placed her hand on his "sorry" she said,

"It's fine, I have you, " he replied and she frowned,

He then sniffed her hair "your hair smells like strawberry" he said and she smiled,

"I know, " she replied,

"Can you let go?" she asked,

"No, I want to hold you tight everyday, " he responded and she moved his hands away,

"No chance, " she replied.

"Well, come on, " he said as he grabbed her by the hand and took her to see the river that was down the cliff.

"What are you doing?" she asked,

"Let's jump from here in the river, " he responded and she smiled nervously.

"No way, " she said as he took him back into the forest where all the different type of creatures were.

"You know I really do think that you have a screw loose, " she said as she sat down by the blossom tree and a rabbit came and sat in her lap.

She played with it, then Michael sat with her.

"Okay, fine, I will drop it, " he said and she smiled,

"What are you talking about?" she asked,

"I will try not to love you more, " he responded and she sighed,

'Okay, that would be good for both of us, " she said,

"If you say so, " he replied as the white wolf came to them and bowed to her.

"Your highnesses" she said,

"Is there a problem?" Octavia asked,

"Your highness can i talk to you alone for a moment please?" she asked,

"Michael, uh... go home or lurk here, just give us a moment please, " she said,

"Okay" Michael replied as he got up and went to the other tree not too far from her with the rabbit and sat there waiting.

"What is the matter?" Octavia asked,

"There is an army coming for you, my lady, " she said and Octavia's heart skipped a beat.

"He is coming, how much time do i have?" the queen asked,

"Minimum three days " the wolf responded and she frowned,

"How can i kill him?" she asked,

'To kill him, you will have to die too do you know that and are you ready? " the wolf asked,

"I know and I am ready I guess, kill anyone of my friends die?" she asked,

"Not if you die, not if you are able to protect them" the wolf responded,

'Well then my fate is decided and my friends will live" she said,

"I take it you will be going forward with your plans?" the wolf asked,

"Damn right I am, " she responded,

"He truly loves you your highness maybe you can change your mind" the wolf said,

"He is better off without me and I am one hundred percent sure he will find another girl worthy of his love and him" she replied.
