Nulla frowned at her words,
"I'd rather be called handsome..."
when Leigh heard this she frowned as well, 'What a terrible personality.' she thought,
"Hmm but you look more like a girl. " she retorted mockingly
Nulla's frown deepend, "Shut up redhead..."
Veins popped on Leigh's forehead, she was furious... He came into their home and now he insults her!
Armin watching this smirked a little, 'It seems the kid's got a sharp toungue, perfect.' he smiled wickedly
Leigh seeing his smile thought that her father was being creepy so she glared at him.
Armin ignored her antics quickly going back to his usual cold look and told Leigh to take Nulla to any one of the guest bedrooms.
=================================
Leigh's pov
You have to be kidding me... I have to help this idiot now, its seriously irritating I would rather train... Im really going to kill dad.
"Red, show me my room." He smirked victoriously...
Ok its official im going to kill this guy. I glared at him, "Find it yourself, Snowboy." I grinned at the nickname.
A vein popped on his forehead, he glared at me however something strange accured, he instantly calmed down and spoke cold as ice, "alright."
He walked off... I was confused, who was he? Why did he just calm down like that!
I decided to ask mom for help.
So I ran up the marble steps and towards the main bedroom, I knocked on the large wooden doors three times, and from the inside came the gentle loving voice of my once strong mother.
Thinking this my eyes started to tear up...
'No, I promised I won't cry, never again, I have to be brave and strong, For mom.'
I opened the large doors that creaked as they slowly revealed the large bedroom, where a king sized bed lay, and in said bed lay a frail woman who looked to be in her thirties, a stunning woman, If I do say so myself, clearly where I got my looks from.
"Mom." I greeted, and walked to her bedside, she looked at me slowly, a small smile made its way onto her dry lips.
"My girl, you don't have to visit all the time, I won't get lonely." she said gently as the smile made its way to her eyes.
"It's alright Mom I don't mind visiting you, in fact I feel safer in your company." I replied, gently taking her hand in mine and giving her a small smile to reassure her.
Tears made their way to her eyes as she reached up and pulled me into her motherly embrace, It was cold, it broke my heart to feel the cold touch of Mother's hands.
"Oh how proud I am of you my girl," She paused and looked me in the eyes.
"So what's got you so riled up?" She chuckled only to go into a series of heart wrenching coughs.
I paused and looked at her, I sighed and said, "Dad brought some child home, and he's very strange, and annoying."
"Hmmm, sounds interesting, I'd like to meet him, will you bring him here dear?"
"Trust me mom you don't want to meet that brat!" I responded
My mom smiled at me and said again, "Please."
I looked at her and sighed, "Fine but if he's rude to you he won't wake up tomorrow." *hmph*
My mom smiled, I kissed her forehead and left for the brat...
============================
Nulla's Pov.
I had walked away from the redhead brat and looked for a maid, only to find nothing not a single maid nor butler, what the hell, for a Noble Armin certainly likes privacy, I walked until a child came into view about six years old if I had to guess off his small stature.He had red hair so I assume they're family, blue eyes like Armin...
He looked at me and questioned skeptically, "Are you..... An evil demon, here to steal my sister?" I looked at him and raised a brow, "No I'm not evil nor would I steal that ball of positivity." I replied sarcastically, He looked at me strangely, clearly not understanding my sarcasm.
"Then what are you doing here?" he questioned.
"That I don't know myself your father I'm assuming, told me to find the guest bedroom, said he'd inform me tommorow." I replied saying a half truth not sure if he'd actually tell me tommorow, but I couldn't be bothered to deal with the questions.
"The guest bedrooms are down the hall to the right, you can pick any of them." He said, trusting me way too easily.
"Thank you... What did you say your name was?" I questioned knowing full well he didn't introduce himself.
"My names Avil, you better remember I'm going to be the greatest wizard." and with that he walked off, oh well, I walked and found the guest bedrooms, I picked a random one and went inside, it had luxuries I once dreamed of but not anymore, I couldn't care less about them, and so I lay on the bed and drifted off to sleep...
I found myself in the mist again, on the ice.
'Hmmm this is very strange.' I looked around to find nothing, it's exactly the same just the cracks weren't on the floor this time. It was really peaceful here, and I felt like I had a connection with this place, 'Maybe I can control it?' I thought to myself and raised my hand, I imagined a chair rising from the ground, nothing happened,' hmmm strange, it felt like something was missing' I was about to continue when I heard a knocking sound and awoke.
I climbed out of bed and walked to the door I opened it to find Redhead standing there, "What?" I asked disinterested.
"My mother wishes to meet you..." she responded crossing her arms and looking away, she continued "Follow me...".
