Re: OLD POST!!!!!

[BayMickey]

"alright, maiden, but I did warn you. So, I'll be off. Farewell." Alexander turned, toward his own temporary camp sight. It was getting dark, and the sky's light blue hues were fading, and the bright oranges and pink of dusk were appearing, making the sky quite colorful. He smirked, untying his horse and jumping on its back, kicking the embers out of his fire, and scooping up his sacthel while he did so. Alexander rode from the forest, and into a small village by dark came. As he came to the village's post, he jumped back off the horse, now leading by the reins. A man approached him from his home, greeting him friendly and giving him a tour.

Fayre frowned at him, but didn't feel lonely once Alexander had left. Fayre was quite positive nothing bad would happen to her. Especially with Blaze by her. The only man within miles of here that would try to remotely assult her would be Laurence, and there was no doubt in her mind that he was out riding looking for her. She was far enough from the castle she'd have time to sleep for a few hours and get up and ride, but it still made her worry. Alexander's words rang clear in her mind, making her shudder. She wouldn't let a man touch her. She took her dagger from her saddlebag and palmed it before laying back against the tree and letting herself fall into a restless sleep, tossing and turning with bad dreams.

[BayMickey]

(What am I supposed to say? No offense to you.)

[Guest]

[ Ehhh, you can be some random dude that meets up with Fayre, or you could play Laurence for a moment, or whatever xD ]

[BayMickey]

(How about, we do the lake scene thingy again? That worked out good last time...)

[Guest]

[ um, all right... which one, though? the swimming one or just where they meet every night? ]

[BayMickey]

(Let's just go with what we feel like at the moment...)

[Guest]

[ well it's yer turn xD ]

[BayMickey]

(Okay. Fricking little beoch at my school has pissed me right off. :/ )


The sound of an arrow rang through the air.

A red stream poured out the fairly large buck's stomach-side, it limping away.

His boots crunched the leaves under it, slowly walking towards his prey.

Alexander followed the slender trail of blood to where a limp body lay, picking up the carcass and slinging it over his horse's back. A sense of satisfaction trickled down his spine, making Alexander shiver slightly. He tredged forward, his dogs sniffing the ground violently. One hound barked once, telling Alexander something was close. He came across a fair-looking lake, clear so you could see the bottom. Alexander tied the canines to a nearby tree, walked carefully forward. He bent on one knee, cupping his hands and gathering some water, and drinking. The cool liquid trickled down Alexander's coarse throat, almost taking him back. He smirked, as he had never, ever tasted water this delicious. Anyway, he decided to camp here for the night, retreating back to his horse and dogs, untying both and leading to the lake once more. Alexander retrieved a cotton blanket from his saddle bag, as he put it there in case he was to camp, as he was doing now. He laid the blanket on the sand surrounding the lake, gathering some loose wood, and making a temporary camp.

[Guest]

Fayre lay comfortably on the ground, her back propped up against a rock. Blaze grazed peacefully beside her, wandering off a ways, but never completely out of her sight. He did canter off, though, when he heard the sound of dogs and other footsteps. Fayre lept into the shadows as a man leaned down near the water and took a drink. Fayre realized it almost as Alexander, but as the darkness fell, she returned to her place, unsure that he'd seen her, hopefully he hadn't. She wasn't sure if it was Alexander, and if it wasn't, she didn't want any confrontation with him. Especially since she was now weaponless since Blaze had run off.

[BayMickey]

Alexander striked the flint and steel together, creating sparks and igniting the wood, the blaze now rising. He decided to cook his deer, holding parts of the meat over the fire. When he finished, eh ate, leaving a little left over. Alexander was now satisfied, leaning back onto the blanket, now gazing up at the stars. The bright beings in the sky gleamed like the small diamond of his mother's finger, and like the small engraved on the wooden cross around his neck. Anyway, as Alexander gazed up, he heard a neigh. Not one from his but an slightly familiar one. He cocked an eyebrow and parted his lips slightly, before sitting up, and seeing a large stallion beside his mare.

[Guest]

Fayre wodnered where Blaze had gone. She grimaced and stared out at the dark woods around her. From a ways off, she noticed smoke flying upwards. Fayre, a tiny bit worried now, stood up. She walked tentatively towards the fire, staring ahead to see a nice fire, and Blaze standing beside and nuzzling a mare affectionately. The mare was familiar, and as Fayre wandered throughout the trees, silent as a fieldmouse, hinding behind trees and ducking below bushes, she realized it was Alexander. More confident now, Fayre stepped forward to retrieve her stallion, but her courage failed her suddenly as she stepped on a twig. She immediately retreated behind a tree.

[BayMickey]

Alexander heard a snap, and his head moved towards the sound. He chuckled. "Hello?" His voice seemed to echo through the woods. Alexander recollected himself, shifting his weight to his front foot before lifting it, and walking forward. "Tis anyone there?" His Amarian accent rang through the trees, bouncing their branches, as it seemed. It was scary, almost. But a twing comforting. Warm. And made someone whom it came from. A smile crept upon Alexander's shaven face. He glanced behind a tree, seeing the hem of a dress.

[Guest]

Fayre bit her lip gently. She didn't know why she was freaking so suddenly. When she heard his voice she sighed and slumped slightly, walking out nervously from behind her tree. She smiled bashfully. "Yes, I am here." Fayre said, gathering up the last bits of her dignity and walked over to her stallion. "I do believe my stallion has wandered off. You spooked him a bit, see?" Fayre smiled gently. "I think I shall just take him back with me, maybe?" Fayre patted Blaze's shoulder, then turned to Alexander. She couldn't help but notice how handsome he looked with the firelight framing his features.

[BayMickey]

"Fayre? Why, you've grown up!" Alexander's face was in awe. How could it be? "It's Alexander Sarreh. I haven't seen you, since, what seems like an eternity." He drew out breath, a huff coming from his excitement. Alexander stayed in his place, not wanting to intrude her space. Countless memories flooded his memory of his childhood. Alexander walked towards his dogs, petting one of their's heads, still eyeing the woman.

[Guest]

Fayre smiled at him gently. "Ahh, so you recognized me?" Fayre chuckled at him. She rested against Blaze's shoulder and stared at Alexander for a moment, taking in his grown up form. "You've...grown up, Alexander. You look like a man, now." The last part was a bit of a tease, but she still meant it. It was the closest thing she could say to 'handsome.' She wouldn't bring that up, though. He was a prince and probably had women doting on him and an arranged marriage. She had one more year left until she would be forced to marry. But if she got a suiter before then, she'd be forced to marry. Shaking off the thought, Fayre asked, "Do you come here often?"

[BayMickey]

"Aye. And thank you. Also, no, I was just hunting." Alexander heard a canine bark, probably of jealousy. He laughed, rubbing it's head momentarily, then walking back to his little camp. "Would you happen to be hungry, Fayre?" He looked back at the maiden, more intensely this time. He noticed how her blonde hair fell gracefully over her shoulders, they way her dimples showed when she was talking. And he noticed the soft freckles on her nose. Alexander actually thought she was attractive. Fairly attractive. Almost seductive.

(Love at first sight. And I'm gonna try to find her picture.)

(HOT!)

[Guest]

[ i like the first picture for Fayre. ^^ and i KNOW ! I just got the last book of the Eragon series today!!! so pumped! ]

Fayre shrugged and commented, "I guess I could eat a little bit." She commented. There was a look in his eyes that made her uncomfortable, but she couldn't help but feel like she was looking at him just the same way. She walked over to him and sat down on a rock, smoothing out her dress and trying her best to sit in a lady-like position. She wasn't used to it, but Alexander...? The hungry gaze made her uncomfortable. She couldn't help but notice that he looked the same way. Handsome, extremely attractive, and she couldn't seem to tear her eyes away from him.

[ love at first sight bugging you? they used to know each other, anyway. so it's not terribly weird. ]

[BayMickey]

(No, I like it.)

Alexander caught himself and returned to his normal self. "My apologies." He smiled and looked at the ground, shaking his head. He looked back up. "I have some deer, if you'd wish to have it." He washed his hands in the lake, then picked up the piece of meat, and handing it to her. Alexander looked back down at the lake. "Why is it so clear, in a place of terrible plague?" The lake was peculiar. This place, the thin strip of the border, held plague, dirt, and hatrid. It was pratically a miracle it was so clear, and delicious. But, Alexander was worried about him now getting sick, because he drank it.

[Guest]

[ ^^ okay, good ]

Fayre dropped her own gaze, as well, taking the piece of meat from him with a nod of thanks. Glad for the diversion, she looked towards the lake and smiled fondly. "It's like that. It has...say...magical qualities. Heals the sick, saves those who are near death. Sometimes it can even make the blind see, if mixed with the right potions." Fayre smiled. "I used to go swimming there a lot, when I was little, when you'd be away and i had nobody else to play with." Fayre smiled happily, letting out a contented sigh. "It's nice, that lake. Best tasting water i've ever had." Fayre took a bite of the deer, still staring out at the lake. "It's... serene. I stay here most of the time instead of at home."

[BayMickey]

Alexander understood now. "Oh. That's amazing." He had nothing more to say. Fayre's voice stayed in his mind, lingering around. He rolled his eyes to himself. Alexander raised his chin. "I guess I can go swimming in it then." He kicked off his boots, climbing on the largest rock he could find, then diving off of it, and into the lake. He opened his eyes underwater, seeing colorful fish swimming by. He smiled, coming up for air. "Magic is right." Alexander went back under, his blonde hair wildly flowing everywhere. When he came back up, it stuck to his forehead.

[Guest]

Fayre looked at him, feeling a bit surprised. She put the deer down and followed him to the edge of the lake, staring at him as he resurfaced. She wasn't about to go swimming with him. She was hardly dressed, to begin with! And plus, after seeing Alexander for awhile, she wasn't about to go swimming in her bodice and lower skirts. That would just be weird. Instead, Fayre sat down on the shore and splashed him when he came up. "I can't believe you just go off and go into the lake." She laughed at him, pure and clear, a smile lighting her features.

[BayMickey]

"Why shouldn't I? No need to be rude, though. It was tempting." Alexander laughed, putting up his hands to block the splash. He went back underwater, opening his eyes again, now seeing nothing. Alexander's loose shirt moved in the water gracefully with the current. He swam forward, then resurfaced, turning back to Fayre. (Sorry so short. Kinda pissed right now.)

[Guest]

[ D: i'm sorry ]

Fayre stared stared at him, chuckling. She wished silently that she could go swimming with him, unafraid of just enjoying herself and her time with him. She wished it could be the same when they were little. Swimming with him now, without the right clothing? Talk about awkward moment. Fayre chuckled at him one last time before she dipped her toes into the water, splashing him with her feet.

[BayMickey]

(Ugh. It's not your fault. Girl trying to pick a fight with me because I didn't send HER FORWARD MESSAGE! I was like, 'I don't send forwards.' And then she went off on me. What the hell?)


Alexander laughed with her, then slid underwater slowly, swimming closer to her, then coming up, slashing her with a big wave of water. He doubled up in laughter, falling back underwater, then swimming to the shore. He climbed out the water, fetching his boots and putting them on. Alexander walked back towards Fayre, smile stained on his face. "Did I dare get you wet? I am so sorry, maiden."
