"Well Aphmau, do you like him?"

Zenix's question repeated itself in my head over and over. It was like it was on a constant loop. I had no idea how to answer it, and his expression told me he wanted an answer. He wanted an answer now.

"I don't have all day, so I ask you. Do you like him, better yet. Do you love him?"

He only made it worse. I had no idea, did I like-no love him? I remembered all the good things he had done for me. He did so much, and asked for nothing in return. What was I to say about, about that? Did I love him? 

"I..."

"Tell me, do you love him?"

"She doesn't have to tell you anything!"

Zenix's turned around and I looked up. There he was, Michi was standing next to him but he didn't seem to care, he was here to save me. Laurence was here to save me, like a knight in shining armor. Something, I'll admit, I had always pictured Garroth doing. What? His personality seemed to match that of a knight in shining armors more.

 Although Laurence did happen to be a knight, a shadow knigh, yet he was still here to save me.
