A Faeries Soul (evergreen and elfman #elfgreen)

Its a long ride...

"Dammit what is taking that woman so long" Elfman muttered while tapping his foot repeatedly. His ears twitched to the sound of unsuccessfully contained laughter. As he turned around he saw Lisanna barely keeping it together while trying to smother her giggles with her hand. "What is it" he questioned suspiciously. Lisanna just shook her head and continued laughing.

"Lisanna what is it" Elfman said getting slightly annoyed now.

"Oh just you waiting for your woman now its so cute"

Elfman's face turning to the colour of a fully ripe strawberry while arms waving everywhere exclaimed.

" Sheisn'tmywomansodontgothinkinganythingwherethereisnothingtobasethosethoughtson"

Ohh Lisanna thought when has he started calling her a woman. But those thoughts was quickly interrupted at the arrival of  Evergreen.

"There you two are and why is he suddenly worked up" Evergreen asked coolly drinking in the sight of Elfman's suddenly loud and flustered form. 

"NOTHING right Lisanna" giving her a pointed and desperate look. Lisanna just sighed and looked at Evergreen 

"Did You have trouble finding us?"

"No not when that loud moth started yelling"

"HAY I was yelling for a reason"

"Care to share why?"

"W-what n-no I'm fine lets quickly get on the train".

The only seats the train had available was a compartment that had a double seat and one single seat. Lisanna quickly getting her match making scheme into the works immediately sat down on the single seat forcing the Evergreen and Elfman to sit next to each other. And then the bickering began...

"Evergreen do you really need to take up that much space, I'm trying to relax here"

 "yes I do because you haven't been on a three day mission with the thunder legion and only had at least two hours rest. I need to sleep"

Lisanna sighed she knew these two would act differently towards each other once she left so without further ado she quickly left saying she needed some food.

" be care full not to eat to much we've serious work to do once we get to Altay" Elfman yelled after her.

Evergreen sat up gazing at him. Carefully adjusting her glasses so not to hit him with her stone eyes magic.

You care so much about your sister's Evergreen thought watching as he relaxed further, when he suddenly looked up at her with his powerful and entrancingly blue eye's. A small smile spread across his face telling her that she had just said her thoughts out loud. But that smile quickly faded as he turned to look at the ground 

"I'm a brother that try's yet always ends up hurting people he loves" he muttered flash backs of Lisanna's death flashed through his eyes as he thought of the times he tried to protect his family and failed. Evergreen's eyes traced his large scare from the end to his eyes. This scar marked his largest regret and fear. Evergreen's hand shot out on its own accord and wrapped around his own. her cheeks flared up as Elfman stared up into her eyes with a surprised expression. But neither of them let go.

"E-elfman you are a brother and a person who cares so much for the people he loves that he will protect them until the ends of the earth. Don't let past mistakes and accidents define you"

A small blush barely noticeable spread across Elfman's face and he said " thank you Evergreen for everything you really should get some sleep now"

With a small smile, even then hardly noticeable Evergreen sat back and slightly lifted her legs up on the small table to hind their hands from view. " 'Night Elfman" she muttered before hurriedly closing her eyes. Maybe it was pure exhaustion or the fact that she was with someone she would easily trust her life with she was dead to the world in seconds.

A smile flared on Elfman's face tugging at his old long scare filled with memories he felt secure around this woman. With these final thoughts he to drifted of into a long happy sleep.
