Your POV
Man, my arms hurt. I'm lucky I didn't dislocate anything. Wait, why is Laurance hugging me? I felt my face turn red.
"Did you hear me singing?" I asked nervously, already knowing the answer. Laurance hesitated then nodded slowly, almost as if he was afraid of my reaction. I sighed and felt my blush stay in my face. Dang. Laurance seemed to gain confidence since I didn't run. Who does he think I am? Some other girl who doesn't like singing in front of others like.... Stop right there. You don't want to get riled up now.
"You're singing is as beautiful as you are," Laurance flirted as I stared at the ground. I didn't mind singing in front of people, but when someone eavesdrops on you, it doesn't feel good.
"Come on. We need to tell the others that you're okay," Laurance said as he started walking off. I followed, my ears twitching at every rustle in the undergrowth. I kept trailing the cu- (Y/N)! What the actual Nether? Actually, you can admit he's cute, but no feelings. You just met, and you need to save Destiny, if she's.... No. You don't have time to fall in love. (Or are you just afraid? Hmmm.)
We continued on in silence, and reached the gates of Phoenix Drop as the sun was setting.
"So, would you like to-" Laurance was cut off by the one and only Aphmau.
"Thank Irene you found her! (Y/N), are you okay?" Aphmau fretted, looking me over.
"I'm fine," I mumbled just loud enough for her to hear. Aphmau, satisfied with my answer and her examination, backed up. I looked up from the ground to see Dante and Garroth talking, occasionally glancing at me, Laurance, and Aphmau. What are they talking about? They walked over to us.
"Lord Aphmau, if it is okay with you, we would like to have a meeting as soon as possible. We would like to request that your presence be there," Garroth requested with authority. I wonder what they want to talk about. It's probably about me. Aphmau frowned slightly.
"Okay. I'll be there shortly. Just let me set (Y/N) up at my house. Come on (Y/N)," Aphmau replied, walking towards the town and up a hill. I followed her to her *ahem* very purple house. I saw Zoey in the front yard with two little boys.
"Hey (Y/N)! Can you help me get these two to bed?" Zoey asked, almost pleading.
"Sure. What are their names?"
"This is Levin." Zoey pointed to a bright blue eyed blonde. "And this is Malachi." She pointed to the other boy, a little ghost in rags. I crouched down so I was the same height as them.
"Hewo (Y/N)," Levin said, stumbling on his words a bit.
"Hi Miss (Y/N)," Malachi politely greeted.
"Are you guys tired? It's getting late," I commented, pointing to the almost set sun.
"No! I wanna pway!" Levin pouted.
"Levin, it's getting late. I know that I'm tired," I replied, yawning. "Well Levin, it's too dark to play outside anymore. How about we go to your room?"
"Okay. Fowow me," Levin said grabbing my hand and leading me upstairs. Zoey and Malachi followed. I noticed that Aphmau didn't, so she must have headed back to the guard meeting.

Awwww! Levin is so cute! Well, he was. He's all grown up now. I need to go for drama, the play is Friday! Send help!
