"Dad! Dad!" The shouting voice of the little brown haired boy was enough to make Garroth's head turn. He looked so panicked so Garroth had no time to correct him that he wasn't his dad.
"What is it, Malachi?" He asked.
"Mom, Levin, and I were all in the forest. Then Zane showed up and Mom told me to take Levin, run, and get help. So I got you." As soon as he finished his sentence Garroth had already run out the room. He ran fast to the forest. Where he spotted Zane with an unconscious Aphmau in his arms.
"Give me her Zane." Garroth growled, shocking not just Zane but also himself as he realized how menacing he sounded.
"Aww..... Does my big brother Garroth want to play the hero role. Be the knight in shining armor to save his Princess. Or dare I say it, his love." He chuckled lightly. Though you could still see the fear in his eyes, as he had never seen Garroth this mad before.
"Hand over Lady Aphmau." Garroth snarled.
"This is your one chance. I'm feeling extremely nice today. Maybe it's just the aura that she gives off." He smiled, handing her over to Garroth.
Garroth shocked by his action grabbed her, turned around and started walking. He wasn't too far, before he heard a metal clanging sound.
"Aww. Zane thought that he could get away with something. Not for a second, I guess it's about time the Princess saves her knight." Aphmau stated, leaping out of Garroth's arms. Garroth apparently isn't the only one too shocked to move, Zane is as well. They both finally snap out of their trance. Just in time for Aph to look back at Garroth and tell him, "Let me handle this, love." She turned back to Zane. Zane charged again. But this time only to be met with two swords. "You think I would let you handle him alone?" Garroth chuckled. Aphmau huffed, "I could of Garroth." She then pushed Zane down knocking him off his feet. Using the hilt of her sword she knocked him out cold.
With him knocked out. Garroth gained some confidence. "Now Lady Aph-" "Garroth I don't want to have to keep telling you, just call me Aphmau or Aph." She smiled lightly at him.
"Okay. Aph, I just want you to know that I love you, and I understand if you don't feel the same way. I don't want to pressure you or-" She leaned up lightly and kissed him. Then pulled back. "I really like you Garroth. And yes I will need to think. But in the meantime, would you like to go on a date?" She asked.
"Aren't I the one who is supposed to ask?" He chuckled lightly.
"Yeah but I don't think you could of done it." She burst into giggles which later turned into full on laughing. Him still offended, swooped in and kissed her.
"YAY! I love soap operas!" A familiar voice called out. The two pulled away, looking toward the man. "Shut up Laurence! I wanted to see this!" A annoyed Travis stated getting out of the bushes. Only to be tackled by Aphmau. She pinned him to the ground, Garroth did the same with Laurence. At the same time they both asked, "How much did you see?!"
"Everything."
