Aphmau's POV
I'm going to tell Garroth how I feel about him today. I don't care if he doesn't feel the same, I need to get this off my chest.
As I go downstairs I hear a knock at the door. It's Laurance? His face is red and he's out if breath "Have...you...seen...Garroth?" He struggles out in between gasps. "No, I thought he was patrolling." "He disappeared last night. Dale said he saw him walk home but he didn't see him go inside. We think he's been kidnapped." Those words broke my heart. "K-k-kidnapped?...no. No no no no no NO! It's not true!" "Aph don't worry, well find him. He couldn't have gotten far. I'll send out search teams to search the forest." "Thank you. Laurance." "You're welcome, my love." I smiled. "I thought you stopped that! Just when I thought you had forgotten, here it is again!" "I'll never stop it. My love." "Goodbye Laurance." Closed the door. At least Laurance got my mind off that for alittle. Garroth will be fine. Well find him. Right?
Laurance's POV
After Hours of searching we came across a old cave. I lit a torch and walked inside. I walked for about 2 minuets before I came across a mask. It was white with a red mark down the side. I disregarded it and kept walking until I found a body. "GARROTH?!" I ran over to him and shook him. He didn't respond. I checked his pulse. 1 second. 2 seconds. I feared the worse. I finally felt his pulse. Whew. That was a close one. I picked him up and carried him back to Phoenix Drop. Aphmau is not gonna be happy.
Aphmau's POV
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN HES IN A COMA?!" We had a doctor come to Phoenix Drop because Dr. Doctor had never dealt with a coma patient before. Dr stiles said to me , "Sadly I mean he's in a coma. I'm not sure when he'll wake up or, if he'll wake up. Not only that but whatever hit him in the back of the head caused blunt force trauma and compound fractures in the skull. We can treat him for those here but as for the coma, only thing we can do is wait." He walked out. Leaving only me and laurance with him. Fighting back tears I looked at Garroth, lying motionless on the bed in the Guard tower. "I-I'd like some time alone." "Are you su-" "I SAID I WANT TO BE ALONE!" He looked at me frightened. I'd never yelled at him like that before. "Yes. My lord" he said solemnly and walked away. I turned back to Garroth. "
Why. Why did this happen to you. Out of all the people here it happens to you...." Tears are welling up in my eyes. "The one I love..." Im crying now. I hug him knowing that I may never see him smile again. I may never hear him laugh or stutter or see him blush again. He may never know how much I like him. He may never know...
