I nodded my head in agreement and the man immediately calmed down. I felt good, [ At least if I die, I told the truth before I did ] but then he pointed at himself, " It's me Tyler ". I looked him up and down, " Is this supposed to be a joke? I don't know anyone by that name ".
The man scratched his head lightly and went on, " I didn't get a chance to introduce myself earlier. The book that brought us here... ". This idiot was trying to get us both in a mental home or worse, DEAD!!!
" I think you should leave before I call the guards ", He shook his hands frantically and brought out a pen, " Don't do that, I'm sure you recognize this pen ". He wasn't wrong though, I did recognize the pen he was holding.
It was like every other pen in black with pink tiaras scattered around it and I snatched it from him, " Of course I do, the damned book that caused all this ". Dopey blinked a few times, obviously surprised by my tone and I shook my head [ I guess you wouldn't expect someone called Snow White to say something like damn ]
" I'm sorry about that Dopey, I lost my cool ". Dopey nodded understandingly as he patted my hand gently before walking away. I sighed as I relaxed against the small space that was the fountain rim.
" I really thought you'd call the guards ", I laughed as I scratched my head " Sorry about that. I panicked ". He frowned slightly, " What exactly were you worried about "? I shrugged lightly as I began counting on my fingers, " I thought you were gonna kill me, maybe blackmail me, then reveal that I'm an imposter ".
He stared at me and suddenly knocked my head lightly, " You humans way of thinking is always negative and odd ". It didn't really hurt but I touched my head anyways, " You say that like you're not human ".
He laughed nervously and I thought it was suspicious. I leaned in closer as I poked at his chest and smiled, " You are human, right "? He gulped and I couldn't help but laugh [ He's so fun to tease ] He held my hand, trying to push it away from him, " Of course I am ".
I raised an eyebrow, I wasn't sure but he didn't seem as convincing as he thought and now I was beginning to think he really wasn't. I don't think that bothers me though, the ship of normal sailed off a long time ago when the Devil's book appeared.
I wagged my finger at him, " I doubt it, you don't even know the human form of greeting ". He tilted his head to the side, obviously confused " There's a human way of greeting "?
I nodded seriously [ This is priceless ], " Of course there is ". He seemed curious as he stared at me, " What is it "? My finger dropped slightly [ I have no idea. Quick, make something up ] " Kissing ".
He frowned and I kicked myself [ How could I say that? ] " Really "? I had to continue, I'd only embarrass myself if I didn't and again nodded seriously, " Of course, that's why French people, British people, even fairytale characters kiss. It's like saying hello and goodbye ".
He nodded thoughtfully and I felt relieved, [ That joke took a turn for the worse ] " But since you didn't know that, I guess you're not human ". The boy seemed surprised by what I said, " Of course I am.....I just forgot to greet you since I was excited to see you ".
I nodded lightly then processed what he'd just said and looked at him, " What do you mean forgot "? As soon as I said that, he suddenly kissed me. It was so quick and soft but that didn't make it any less alarming.
I scrambled to my feet, blushing and wiping my mouth [ Is anyone feeling hot out here? ] He got up too, looking completely innocent like he didn't already take advantage of me, " Didn't I do that right? Let me do it again ".
Could you believe that, cos I know I couldn't. And true to his word, he did try and kiss me again. I pushed him away, " That won't be necessary, you did fine ". I tripped over myself and fell backwards.
Trying to balance myself, I caught his shirt [ Not good ] He lost balance as well and we both fell into the fountain, could things get any worse? [ And I already took a bath ]
