"You! What are you doing here?" I screamed, covering myself.
"I came for you," He said that as if it made complete sense.
"I don't want to see you. Go away," Instead of going away as I had wished he would, he walked into the river, slowly trudging towards my showering self.
"I said go away!" I shouted, turning away from him as if that would help but he didn't heed my words.
"I know you did," He replied, a small smirk on that handsome face that I had grown to both love and hate.
"Then why aren't you going away?" I asked, now beginning to take slow steps back as he got closer.
"Because I came to see you and I'm not going anywhere until I see you," Was that supposed to be flattery? Why don't I feel flattered then?
"If I say so myself, I think you've seen too much of me," I mumbled and he seemed pleased by my words which only frustrated me further.
"Too much of you is never enough for me. The more you show, the more I want," Now I felt flattered.
I turned around to look at him but it was too late, feeling a strong grip on my bare waist, I was heaved into the air as he carried me in his arms, pushing us both back against a rock as I gulped back a surprised scream.
"What do you want?" I finally asked the question he'd been patiently waiting to hear and he didn't waste another second to answer, grey eyes glinting with underlying mischief.
"I want you,"

Once Upon A Crown

"Wow! Is that really the island that you grew up on, mum!" Silas exclaimed excitedly, running around the ships while pointing at the island that stood in the distance. 


"I don't know. I can't see properly from here," He replied as I picked him up in my arms and we both stood by the railing, staring at the slowly enlargening island. 


"Is there a lot of animals there?" He asked. 


"Are there fish?" He cut me off and I nodded my head. "What about sheep?" He added. 


"Sheep?" I repeated, confused and he nodded his head. 


"I've never seen a sheep before. It's my dream to see a sheep," 


"Well, unfortunately, there aren't any sheep on the island but if it's your dream to see a sheep then I'll show you some when we return to Lazarus, okay?" He nodded his head before turning back to look at the island and I smiled at him, poking his cheek.
