Chapter 317 - Bunch of idiots

Elihu yawned as he was riding on his horse, while he cracked his neck, he had a horrible night, terrible night, he could not sleep at not, well not with the several bugs that were crawling on top of him, he could not see anything in the dark and he really regretted that.

"Looks like someone did not get a good night's rest" said Darla as she laughed scornfully as he decided to comment on Elihu's poor looking face.

"Thanks to witches like you that sent horrid bugs to me" replied Elihu as he rode on his horse slowly and Darla rode next to him, just because she wanted to annoy the life out of him.

She could see that he was too tired to make his horrible remarks at her, so she would use this opportunity to her fullest.

"Oh, you horrible man, a with would not even bother casting any spells on you, you are already vile enough" said Darla as she replied with a scoff.

"And of course you know so much, I do not think that you are aware of the great number of bugs that I had to deal with" said Elihu as he looked at her, his eyes red from lack of sleep, Darla loved seeing him like this, it made her feel so happy to see his suffer.

"Well if you would have paid attention to me, you would have realized that I slept furthest away from any rock nearby, bugs inhabit those things" said Darla.

"Well a certain someone told me to get far away from her, else she would spit on me" said Elihu.

"And for the record, I can tell that you do not clean your teeth, your saliva smells horrid, maybe it has something to do with you being a werewolf, but then again, you are just naturally bitter, and that character of yours spreads to every part of your body" said Elihu as he replied.

"I will give you a knock on the head that you will never forget" said Darla in spite.

"Be my guest, I have been hit on the head several times in my life, maybe your knock would knock some things back into place" replied Elihu as Darla scoffed.

"idiot" said Darla as she rode ahead and they both entered into a little town as Elihu stopped his horse as beside a man.

"Excuse me Sir, would you know where the quickest way to the first city is?" asked Elihu as he looked at the man and the man scoffed at him as he walked away, leaving Elihu puzzled as Darla's laughed echoed in his ears as he looked at her.

"What in the…" said Elihu as he was cut off.

"Oh it seems that man knows not to speak to bad people" said Darla as she laughed and Elihu just sighed, he did not have the power to deal with her right now, and he was just so tried.

"Let me show you how good people are answered" said Darla as she smiled and she rode ahead with her horse as she stopped in front of another man.

"Excuse me sir, would you happen to know the quickest way to the first city?" asked Darla with a smile as the man scoffed at her and he walked away leaving her feeling angry and humiliated as Elihu rode next to her.

"What sort of nonsense is this?" asked Darla.

"I have no idea" said Elihu.

"What sort of rubbish is this? Is everyone in this town mad or what?" asked Darla in anger, how could that man treat her like that? She of course only asked him a simple question, he could have easily just said yes or no, that would have done her some good, but no he had to scoff at her for no reason at all and walk away without giving her an answer.

"I do think that there is something wrong with the people in this town" said Elihu.

"A bunch of idiots, just a bunch of idiots" said Darla.

"I agree" said Elihu as he nodded his head.

"I think that we should leave this town before we catch whatever it is that is going on in this town, we do not know if it is infectious" said Elihu as he really did not want to get some sort of strange sickness from a strange land.

"I agree" said Darla as she rode ahead and Elihu followed after her and they quickly got out of the town as they stopped when they were a distance away from the town and Darla looked at Elihu as they both laughed.

"Bunch of inconsiderate beings, and big idiots" said Darla as she laughed.

"Is that not the truth?" asked Elihu as he laughed.

"Oh come on, let us continue on, I guess that we will have to go in the same direction" said Darla.

"It would seem so" said Elihu as he nodded and they continued on/

Liam and Wura were riding together quietly when suddenly on their way ahead, Wura saw what seemed to be flowers, and a lot of them.

"Are those flowers?" asked Liam as he looked at Wura.

"I thought that I was just seeing things, but you see it as well?" asked Wura as she looked at Liam.

"I think that we are in a meadow" said Liam as he stopped.

"A meadow this nice, growing in such a dry area it is… surprising to say the least" said Wura as she got down from her horse as well.

"I am surprised as well, a dry land with a meadow" said Liam as he smiled and he picked up one flower as Wura looked around.

"A lily for another Lily" said Liam as he gave Wura a flower and she looked at him as she laughed at his sweet gesture.

"Thank you" said Wura as she smiled and she took the flower from him and she put it in her hair.

"How do I look?" asked Wura as she smiled.

"As beautiful as usual" said Liam as he smiled and Wura laughed.

"Oh Liam please do not joke with me" said Wura as she laughed.

"Who said anything about joking, I am telling the truth, nothing but the truth" said Liam as he smiled and Wura cleared her throat as she looked down.

"I think that we should be on our way now, before it gets late" said Wura as she looked ahead.

"Come on, we are in a nice, peaceful place, I think that we should stay here for a little while" said Liam as he smiled.

"Are you sure?" asked Wura.

"Will we not waste any time if we stay here?" asked Wura.

"Cheer up a bit Wura, we still have some time left before it gets dark, and I am sure that the horses would like to stay here as well, right boy?" asked Liam as he looked at his horse and Wura laughed.

"Come on" said Liam as he smiled.

"Come on Lily, come on" said Liam as he smiled and Wura sighed.

"Alright, fine" said Wura as she laughed.

"Thank you" said Liam as he smiled.

"Come on, let us take a break" said Liam as he took Wura's hand and they walked into the meadow as Liam sat down and Wura sat down beside him.

"Are you sure that we should just leave the horses just like that?" asked Wura as she looked at Liam.

"Oh they will be fine, just look at them, they are already eating, see" said Liam as he pointed to the horses who were eating and Wura laughed.

"Well alright" said Wura as she laughed and Liam smiled at her.

"Do you not ever look up into the sky and wonder" said Liam as he looked up and Wura did the same.

"Wonder about what?" asked Wura.

"About everything, life, family…" said Liam as he smiled.

"I mean… to some extent yes" said Wura as she replied and Liam laid on the grass as Liam did the same as there was silence between them.

"You know, I think that this would have been a perfect place for a picnic" said Wura as Liam looked at him.

"I do agree with you, sadly we cannot have one" said Liam as he smiled.

"Do you like picnics?" asked Liam.

"No, I love them" said Wura.

"I have so many good memories of them" said Wura as she smiled, remembering the times that she and Liam had been on a picnic.

"Alone or with someone you care about?" asked Liam as he looked at Wura.

"With someone I care very much about… my husband" replied Wura as she looked at him and he smiled at her.

"You husband, he sounds like a very great man to have captured your heart so greatly" said Liam as he smiled.

"He is…" said Wura as the thought hit her, she now knew why Mero had put her and Liam together, this was her chance to try to get him to remember her, her mind was racing, maybe a kiss would break his enchantment, but that was something that she was not sure of.

"And still yet till now, I do not know your husband's name" said Liam.

"Ahh well his…" said Wura as she hesitated she did not know what to say when she suddenly felt something crawling on her arm and she got up quickly in a fright.

"Lily, what is wrong?" asked Liam in worry as Wura moved very far away.

"There was something crawling on my arm, and I do not know what it is at all" said Wura as she looked at her arm and Liam looked where she was laying as he smiled when he saw a little green grasshopper that he held in his hand.

"It was just a little grasshopper" said Liam as he smiled and he showed it to Wura.

"Ahhh I see" said Wura as she laughed and she walked back to sit next to Wura.

"It felt so weird crawling over me" said Wura as she laughed and Liam get go of the grasshopper as it flew away.

"Those creatures are so little" said Liam as he laughed and Wura laughed.

"You know Liam, I honestly think that we should go now, we do not want to waste any time" said Wura as Liam looked at her.

"You do not enjoy being with me do you?" asked Liam.

"No it is not that at all Liam, I enjoy being with you a lot, and we did rest here for a while, but I just do not want it to get dark and then we will end up being stuck in the middle of nowhere, please understand how I feel, and how can I not enjoy being with you? You are wonderful to be around" said Wura as she smiled and Liam smiled at her.

"You are right, we should go" said Liam as he smiled and he got up as he offered Wura his hand and she took it as he helped her up and they both walked back to their horses.

"Thank you Liam" said Wura as she smiled and Wura smiled at him.

The sun was starting to set as the sky was getting darker and darker as Wura was waiting for Liam outside patiently with their horses as it was getting cold.

"Well I have good news and bad news" said Liam as he walked back to Wura.

"What is it?" asked Wura.

"I got a room, but it is only one room, all the others are full… which means that we have to share one room" said Liam as Wura sighed internally.

"Well do we have any other choice?" asked Wura as Liam shook his head, they could not sleep outside, it was very cold out here.

"Well then, alright, it is not like we have another choice, it is fine" said Wura while sighing as she knew that she had to think logically.

"Alright then" said Liam.
