Darren stoped. "Meriana's father is dead.." he said standing there looking at Gold Dusk like he was stupid. Meriana kept walking and then heard their conversation but didn't say anything..

"No... I wasn't refering to the two leg she used to refer to with that title." He kept walking. Another hut soon came into view and he stopped a the door and knocked.

Meriana looking around confused. "dead..." she said softly. she had come to forgive her real father. she felt bad for him. for all his hate. she started to silently cry but did not let anyone see.
when they got to Zepher's hut her cheeks were tear stained.

Zepher answered the door. "Gold Dusk... Please, enter and be welcome." Gold Dusk motioned for Darren to go first then took Meriana's hand hand followed him inside.

_________________

Meriana looked at the ground as they walked in. she didn't want Gold Dusk to worry about her crying. she turned her head quickly and wiped her tears.

Darren walked inside very nervously. he didn't say anything for once. he just waited.

Zepher looked at Darren all his authority as village leader showing in the way he stood. "What can I do for you Gold Dusk?" He asked turning his attention away from the new human.

Gold Dusk said, "Lord Zepher, it was thought that this one might stay the night at my cottage, but it has come to my knowledge that he might need a little more supervision then I or my family will be able to provide."

Darren. " no wait. hold on a minuet..i was just...i mean i did no harm." he said coping an additude. "

Meriana turned her head and started crying again feeling more violated.

Gold Dusk turned and gave Darren a cold stare. Her pulled Meriana close wrapping a protective arm around her. "And perhaps you could also teach him some manners. I caught him looking in Meriana's window as she was changing."
Zepher looked at Meriana and then at Darren no longer the kind gentil host. "Yes he may stay at my cottage, however I suggest you take Meriana home with you, she will probably not want to be alone." Zepher stepped between Darren and the other two and opened the door. "Good evening to you." He said as Gold Dusk led the still sobbing Merinana from the house.

Meriana slowed her crying as they got out of the house she felt embarressed for breaking down like that. she didn't want to even look at Gold Dusk.

Darren stood there in the entry way looking at the floor. he was very nervous.

instead of going back to the cottage Gold Dusk walked toward the brook. He stopped at the bank and let go of Meriana before puttinghis feet back into the watter. He streached raising his arms high up over his head and turning his face to the moonlight. He stood there for a moment before lowering his arms and pulling off his shirt.He sat on the bank the moon making his normally light golden hair a deep silver. He didn't say anything, as he looked back at Meriana then patted the bank beside him, offering her then chance to relax after the big to do that had just occoured.

_________________

Meriana sat down and crossed her legs. she stared at the brook and said nothing. after a few mins she took off her boot and stuck her foot into the brook. she looked at Gold Dusk fineally. " i'm sorry i didn't believe you at first."

"It's fine." He said softly keeping his eyes on the water. Some of his hair fell into his face, but he didn't brush it back.

_________________

Meriana could feel that his was bothered that she didn't believe him. she frowned. she put her hand on his chin and pulled his face so that he was looking at her. she brushed away the hair from his face and looked into his eyes. " i trust you. i always will." she said before kissing him.

Gold Dusk melted into her kiss, and pulled her close. "I love you, perhaps to much, but I can't help that Meriana..." He stoped then wipered her name again. "Meriana." He smiled as if hearing it for the first time.

_________________

Meriana's heart took wings and flew as he pulled her close. " i love you too" she wispered softly. " i don't think i can let go." she said still clinging to him. " we should set the date for the wedding.." she smiled.

"If you can't let go... then don't. You name the date and I will follow, because I know you will want to have time to prepare... and I need time to build a hut just for us." He smiled content to hold her.
