Adventure 7: Broken...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aqua and Slushie were cleaning the girl's when Slushie bitterly asked,
"So how long have you and Leaf been dating?" Just learning about their relationship.
"Only for a week, but I've cherished every moment of it." Aqua replied with a dreamy tone while dusting a picture of her and Leafwind on their first date.
"Well, he doesn't seem like your type." Slushie replied as she closely looked at the photo.
The photo showed the two up in the camera, both simling and laughing.
"You're just being silly sis. I gotta get ready, Leaf could be here any minute for our picnic." Aqua replied enuthisacally.
"So you're in love with him." Slushie said with a smirk, hatching a plan.
"I like him, but I don't were that far in a relationship yet."
Slushie started to taunt her by chanting,
"AQUA LOVES LEAF! AQUA LOVES LEAF!"
Aqua was first irritated by it, but after a couple of minutes, she snapped.
Aqua stomped stright into Slushie's face and yelled,
"LOOK, I AM NOT IN LOVE WITH LEAFWIND! THE ONLY REASON I'M DATEING HIM IS BECAUSE HE'S NEVER HAD A GIRLFRIEND! WHEN SOME OTHER GUY THATS BETTER THAN HIM COMES ALONG I'M GOING TO KICK HIM TO THE CURVE! I DO NOT LIKE HIM LIKE THAT! GOT THAT!?!?!"
Steam was practacally coming out her ears when Slushie replied with a sly simile,
"Crystal."
Aqua tried to read Slushie's face when she heard,
"A-a-Aqua?"
Aqua quickly turned to see Leafwind in the doorway, with a boquet of flowers in his mouth.
"LEAF! Uh, h-how long h-have you been standing there?" Aqua stammered.
All he did was droop his head, his simile quickly turning upside down.
"N-no Leaf I didn't-"
"Y-you don't need to explain anything."Leafwind interuppted in a low tone and dropped the bunch of flowers he had in his mouth.
"But-"
"Drop it, I don't want to go out with you if you feel like you have to date me. I-I'll be fine, right now I need to be alone." Leafwind said as he ran off, tears flowing from his face.
"Leaf wait!" Aqua yelled chasing after him.
Leafwind quickly darted out of the temple, not looking back as Aqua tried to catch up with him.
Aqua stopped when she came upon the entrance that lead deeper into the woods that was near the temple.
'great, trying to find him in there would like trying to find a ant in a bakery.'
Aqua sighed and started back to temple.
'What have I done...'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aqua entered the kitchen to be greeted by Spyro and Cynder.
"Morning guys." Aqua greeted.
They just glared at her as a response.
"W-what?" Aqua asked.
"Why would you say something like that to him?" Cynder asked.
"Yeah, Leafwind doesn't deserve such a biting comment." Spyro followed up.
"Look, he wasn't supposed to hear that, I just-"
"So you did feel that way towards him?" Cynder interuppted.
"No I-"
"If you were going to dump him, at least be gentle." Spyro said.
"But he-"
"There are a lot of ways to dump someone but-"
"PLEASE!" Aqua yelled.
She sighed and sat down.
"My little sister was bugging me and I lost it. I just told her that so she would stop bugging me. I never knew Leafwind was there. I wanted to explain things to him, but he ran off."
"Huh, okay then. Spyro, why you go train or something, this is girl talk."
"Fine." Spyro said as he left the two.
"I never would want to hurt him like that and just like Spyro said Leafwind doesn't a comment like that."
"Well what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to talk to him when I-OW!" Aqua yelped a brush hit her.
They both looked as saw Twinkle had just came in.
"That's for hurting my best friend!" Twinkle barked.
"Twinkle, I-"
"What, trying to make an excuse to justify the event!"
"Twinkle, calm down." Cynder asked.
"Why should I calm down when that icey blue witch broke my buddy's heart!?!"
"Look's who's talking you pink glowing firespitter!" Aqua barked back.
The three were so busy argueing they didn't notice the dragon of the hour walk in.
Leafwind silent walked and was noticed by the three halfway across the room.
Leafwind was much paler than his normal self, accompaned with a small black ring under his eyes, looking as tired as he was pale.
The three girls just watched him as he eat a light breakfast and left the room.
"SEE HOW BAD HE LOOKS!" Twinkle yelled.
"Twinkle, calm down. Aqua why don't you go talk to him." Cynder suggested.
"Alright." Aqua replied she proceeded out of the kitchen.
Aqua quietly walked up next to Leafwind, who was heading outside.
"Hey Leaf, I was looking for you yesterday." Aqua started.
Leafwind stayed quiet, ingoring her presence.
"Um, okay well I wanted to talk to you about us."
He didn't respond and kept walking.
"Leaf, please, talk to me."
No response came.
"Leaf, please, if your still, at least my friend, please, just look at me."
Aqua stopped as Leafwind just kept walking.
She whispered to herself,
"Please, I'm sorry..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Leafwind silently resting under tree when Aqua walked up to him with a small basket and holding the handle in her mouth.
"Hey." Aqua greeted.
Leafwind ignored her.
"I brought you a snack."
He just layed there.
"Blueberry muffins, your favorite."
Nothing came.
"Leaf, please, I'm sorry, I was just mad at Slushie."
"We're still going to Dragonnight together right?" Aqua asked.
(I will explain the event later)
The only thing that came from him was growl from his stomach.
Aqua sighed and left him, getting the message he was putting out.
Leafwind stared out into space and whispered to himself,
"Everyone derseves a shot at romance."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That night...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Any progress on Leafwind?" Cynder asked Aqua as they walked back to their room from dinner.
"No, all he does is lay there in the greenhouse." Aqua replied.
"Well, I would too if Spyro did the same."
"Not helping."
"Sorry, but maybe if you weren't so harsh-"
Before she could finish came Twinkle by trying to drag a large bag.
"What are you doing?" Cynder asked.
"Trying to get this bag to Leafwind, he's not going to Dragonnight because he's doing a favor for Cyril and the morning after that he's leaving."
"WHAT!" Cynder and Aqua exclaimed.
"Well, he said he might come back." Twinkle said, releasing the bag and facing the two.
"So Aqua, you should talk to him before-" Cynder stoped and looked around to find Aqua and the large bag Twinkle was dragging gone.
Leafwind dragged himself to the door as someone was feriously knocking on the door.
He started to open it, but tried to shut it when he saw Aqua.
Aqua jammed her paw in the door and forced her way in.
"We need to talk." Aqua started.
Leafwind tried to pretend she wasn't there.
"Leaf, I've had enough of this slient treatment, ANSWER ME!" she yelled.
Leafwind sighed and replied,
"What?"
"Why are you leaving?"
"My problem, not yours."
"Well, we have to talk about it sooner or later!"
"Later can also mean never."
"Leafwind, I've told you, I've have had enough of this, ANSWER ME!"
Leafwind couldn't take anyone from Aqua's repeated demand and replied sharply and bitterly,
"I've got more important things to do than be questioned by the a icey heartless witch."
What happened next was a blur to both of them, but the result was Leafwind on the floor, the side of his face burning.
"Y-yeah that hurts doesn't it?" Aqua said brokenly, also shocked at what she did.
Leafwind got up, speechless.
"Y-you wanna know something else?!?! I...I... I-I HATE YOU!!!" Aqua screamed and stormed out shortly afterward, knocking down a photo on a table on her way out, hitting the ground and shattering.
