Alisa and the Night King

"Mama said she isn't waking up and the doctors don't know what to do."

"That's terrible, and you took flowers for her?" Kings chin rested in his palm as he frowned.

"Uh huh. I hope she sees them when she wakes up."

"You think she'll wake up?"

"Yep! She has to, everyone will be happy when she does."

"But she'll be alone. Do you think she'll be happy?"

Alisa scratched her head in thought, "Then can we bring her here?"

"I don't know," he shrugged.

"Maybe she can live with us!" Alisa gave a big smile as if that was the best idea ever.

"Maybe... but will your parents agree?"

"They like her too."

"That's because they feel bad for her."

"Huh?"

He shook his head and they sat in silence watching the stars twinkle.

"Hey King!" Alisa who had been in serious thought finally opened her mouth.

"Hmm?"

"Do you love me?"

"What brought this on?" He raised his eyebrows with a quizzical smile.

She shook her head furiously and waited for the answer.

"Of course I do," he nodded calmly.

"The way my mommy and daddy love me?"

"It's a little different," he chuckled. "I don't think mine can compare to theirs."

She went quiet again and he wondered what was going through her head.

"Mmmm, if I got super lost here and you couldn't find me, what would you do?"

"That's easy," He furrowed his brows and the pale glow around him visibly dimmed.

"Oh?"

"I'd rip this whole world apart searching for you."

Her eyes widened, "but isn't this place precious to you?"

"Hmm it is but I've found something more precious."

"Really?" She smiled.

"Mmhm, you."

"Heehee!" She laughed.

He laughed with her.

That's right....you're important to me.

Zack was skilfully chopping onions and garlic whilst conversing with his wife who was skilfully cleaning the fish they'd be eating.
"What's the name of the child?" Teas asked, her brows lowered in thought.

"You mean all this time you didn't know?" Zack gaped at her.

Yess threateningly waves her knife at him, "just tell me!"

"Lula, Lula Rorian," he told her with a chuckle. That was the name of the child that had survived the horrid accident yet lost every remaining relative of hers.

"Lula Rorian?" Alisa said as she entered the kitchen.

"Hey honey~," Zack called in a sing-song voice.
