Goldric Fanfic

Chapter Eighteen

Hunter's POV:

"How did we even end up like this?" I pretend to be asleep while he talks to himself. "Eh, it's fine, I probably just did this in my sleep or something." He takes his arm off of me and sits up. After a couple minutes, I act like I just woke up. "Morning sleepyhead. Well, I can't really say anything, I just got up a few minutes ago. How'd you sleep?" "Actually pretty good. Pretty surprising since I barely ever sleep well. I glance over to my alarm clock. It's eleven thirty, I slept for around twelve hours last night. "Shit, don't we have school today?" "Nope, some holiday or something. I don't know, I didn't pay attention while the teacher was talking. And I don't think you did either." "Har har."

  A couple hours go by and the afternoon comes. The time I spend with him doesn't seem long, no matter waht I'm doing with him. "So Blondie, I wanted to talk about something." I swear to god, if this is about last night. Just gonna act like I didn't pay attention to it or something. "Yeah, what is it?" "Do you know why I put my arm around you last night? I'm not mad, just curious." "Wait, you did that? To be honest, I didn't actually notice." I'm better liar than I thought I was. Pretty sure he belived that.

  "Hey shortie, I'm gonna head home. My mom is getting mad at me for staying so late. Sorry." "Nah it's fine, don't apologize, it's not your fault. See you at school!" He gets his bag and walks out. "Bye shortstack!" I hate that nickname so much, but either way, I gotta admit, it's actually pretty true.

  Edric walks back into my room. "Hey uh, sorry to bother you again, but how the hell do you get out of here? This place is like a labrinth! How do you even know where to go?" I laugh. "You get used to it eventually. Cmon, follow me."

  I lead Edric out of the castle and head back up into my room. "Shit, I need to go talk to Belos!" I kinda forgot about what I said to Belos yesterday. I throw on my Golden Guard uniform, it's actually pretty comfy despite how it looks, except the mask. 

  "Ah there you are Hunter, I was wondering when you would be here. Did your little friend go home?" "Yes, he just left." "Great, now tell me your report. Everything, including how you and your friend decided to have a sleepover." I tell him everything, except about my friends and mostly everything. I just come up with some shitty lie and hope he belives it.
