I woke up to see him clenching my sword and waiting for me to wake up. When he saw my eyes open, he grinned and that was not the expression I expected.
"Hey, you're finally up." He said. "And you look even more beautiful while awake. I'm glad I waited to see your real face. Even with the dirt and tears on your face you still are pretty." He added.
I wanted to stand up when he held out his hand to help me get up but I ignored it and rose to my feet on my own.
"Who are you and what is going on here?" I asked the young man.
"Oh. My name is Rand and I'm so excited to be alive. You know after that snake bite yesterday, I thought I'd die and my father will look all over for me." He responded.
I scoffed at the young man whining about his father looking for him. "Rand, why do you have my sword?" I asked.
