We all walked into the tavern Joseline's hand in mine I knew what had happned and what she had done to get me back though I pretended not to know though Matilida was still going to pay for what she did one way or another for god was mercyless to those who sin.
"Come on slow pokes it's not that early" I joked as I walked slower urging them on Jupiter smiling.
"Trystan it is very much to early" Darius said jokingly as he walked into the tavern first Matilida joining a few seconds later and she sat down looking at me her eyes filled with tears that refused to fall.
"Matildia is there something wrong dear" I asked her as I watched her eyes flick to me.
"n..no I just have something in my eye thats all" she replied before wiping them on her sleeve.
"Alright well if you want to..." I stopped getting a glare from her.
"nevermind lets get some food and drink that's why we came here in the first palce" I said as we got eggs, bread, and fruit with some wine in our glasses.
"well lets eat" I said as we dug in passing food around our table and laughing telling stories and such.
As we eat the morning church bells started to chime calling everyone to mass all of us finishing our food then Trystand paid then went to greet his family joining them for the church service which seemed to last forever as we sat through the whole thing board as we could get the end of the mass being dismissed many people getting up and leaving including us but we waited until the royals left as was expected.
I met the others outside where they bowed to my parents and I walked off with them the walk turning into a run as we ran out to the fields and rolled in the grasses of the willow field where Jupiter and I sat in our places under the thick tree it's vines swaying in the breeze as Darius chased Matilida around the sweet grasses comforting.
"Joseline I remember what happned...all of it so you can stop pretending" I said to her getting a look of confusion.
"what do you mean Trystan?" she asked.
"I mean I remember my death how Matilda killed me or do they wipe only your memories and not mine" I whispred to her as I pulled her next to me.
"No don't remind me" She said harshly before moving closer putting her legs over mine curling up in my lap.
"I can't lose you Trystan" she said as she kissed me deeply our lips moving together as one my eyes falling closed as she kissed.
"me my Joseline loves me I always thought it would be Monroe that would kiss me first I was wrong" I thought to myself letting my hand move to her side the other lightly on her cheek, we stayed like this until she moved back my fluttering heart deciding to calm down and slow once more.
"Joseline, I...W...H...I love you" I stuttered before saying what I ment to say to her years ago.
"About time Trystan" she giggled before kissing me again softer and shorter this time before she got up and pulled me up with her.
"come on you're missing out on all the fun" she said as we joined Darius and Matilida in their frantic dance of chasing each other and rolling in the grass.
"We should do this more often" I said as we sat watching the sun set behind the great castle a smile on all of our faces the girls heads against our sholders and the willow behind our backs waving in the breeze that still lazily blew past.
"We should but we have to get back now" Joseline said before we all got up and slowly walked back to the castle going our seperate ways until we met again.
