Chapter 2
~August~
The mef'wa woke up, not long after, He looked around, and said," Where am I? This isn't heaven is it.. I mean I heard about the place being really light and bright with white all over.. But I didn't expect so many books around.." I chuckled and said," You're in the doctor's office." He turned to look at me, and having seen the scarf on the bedside table, said," Oh, no.. Eve's gonna kill me.." He pouted, and said, more to himself than to me," Dang it..Passing out in the middle of a mission, and now these people probably had someone make a portrait of me, to hang up as Wanted posters.. Oh.. I'll never be able to set foot anywhere.. This sucks." I said," Nobody made a portrait of you.So you have nothing to worry about with Wanted posters." He said," Oh well... I'm gonna be killed anyway.. so I should just accept it." I said," What are you talking about?" He said," Oh, Ragger thieves follow rules.. I know, it's a big shocker. I'll give you some time to take in that thieves follow rules.. I know.. It's overwhelming.." I said," So what rule did you break?" He said," All thieves are required to hide their faces, which we usually do with our Ragger scarves." He tilted his head and said," Hay, aren't you that guy from the market place?" Market place? I don't remember seeing someone like him there, then again it is really crowded. He continued and said," You're August, right? The baker always talks about you. I've never really seen the prince, so I don't really know if you actually look like the prince, but that's what the baker always says. Most people think he's crazy though." He grabbed his scarf and put it back on, as he said," I'm Mylo, Mylo Dagger. It's nice to meet you, and know that there won't be any wanted posters of me. I think that's what most of us, Raggers, fear, besides death." I asked," Why's that?" Mylo replied," Oh, well.. When you're labeled as a thief, nobody ever gives you a chance to earn a honest living, why most of the youngsters are going to join the Raggers, when they get older..That selfish orphanage lady makes the life of a thief sound amazing. I heard the old coot hasn't died, yet. Relentless women. Wish she'd just retire and let someone else take her place.. Instead of trying to make all the kids, in dept to her, for nothing.. Barely feeding anyone. I rambled, didn't I? But yeah.. Once you're labeled as a thief, you're not given a chance to be anything else." Not given a chance.? I asked," If you were given a chance, would you have choosen something different.?" He surprisingly shook his head, and said," I got to look out for my family of thieves. I couldn't possibly stand a quiet life, when I know my friends are all fighting against Southies. I owe everything to them, though I guess that'd surprise you, as thieves aren't really known for loyalty. But hey, we're people too. I think most just forget about that. So, I just noticed, that I haven't gotten your name." I said," I'm.." I should probably state my full name, but he already knows me as August, so maybe he would think I'm a aspiring doctor? I continued," I'm August, you're guess was right."
~Mylo~
I smiled, I didn't really think a noble would every walk to the market place, but I guess everyone has a different way of doing things. I was about to get out, when someone said," Hay, you're gonna be dizzy if you get up, you at least have to wait thirty minutes." I turned, to see a man in a white coat. It's a doctor..I've heard about doctors with their big weapons that inject things into people, and the medicine that they give you to chew or drink tastes awful. I pointed at the doctor and said," I don't want anything you wish to give me, Doc.. So stay away from me." Terra laughed and said," Sorry, Scott, I forgot that he doesn't like Doctors. Come on, Dagger, let's go." I nodded and followed after her, as I starred down the doctor, before we left the room. Terra said," Chris should be done with talking to the king, I don't think he's going to talk to us. It seems we will have to inform Eve about what happened." She didn't mention anything else, so I could only assume that it went well.? Her tone though suggested that it didn't go as planned. We don't really need the guards help though, it was just an odd thing for the king to ask a Streetlord to a ball, so we came out of curiosity.
=The Next Day=
Just like when I saw him last time, he was picking something up. Unusual, I couldn't help but notice that nobody is outside waiting like they usually are. Micheal, my friend who happens to be a guard, is the one that guards him, outside the castle, which usually gives us time to talk. Maybe August wanted to have some alone time? He was seated near the corner of the baker's shop. I wonder what's going on, I walked over to him, and asked," August? What are you doing here, sitting all alone?" He shook his head at me, and motioned for me to be quiet. I titled my head and looked behind me as I said," What? Are you avoiding someone?" He mouthed sorry, then kissed me. He just kissed me.. He just stole my first kiss... What's this weird sound I'm making?
~August~
I saw the guards entering the shop, so I did what any person trying to have a moment of peace would have done. I kissed him, having us turned around, to where my back was facing them. I was gentleman like about it by apologizing first, but I will admit, that out of all the people I've kissed, his just clicked with me. One minute it was because I was hiding from the guards, the continuing was because I actually liked it. Mylo didn't seem to mind, in fact if I didn't know any better, I'd say he enjoyed it as well. I had started the kiss quiet aggressively I will admit, but as time went on, I gentled the kiss. I don't really know how much time went, but the next thing I notice is that, he submitted to me. I didn't know that he was a potential mate, Wolves usually dictate that by scent first, then kisses, which is why I've kissed a couple of people. Mylo submitting to me after a kiss, means that we are compatible. Which is ironic giving all those cats vs. dogs jokes.. Though I guess that doesn't apply to cats and wolves. The way a person submits is by showing their neck, this is the same for cats as well. Mylo seemed lost, after I pulled away, ending the kiss. As soon as he got his barrings back, he said, flustered," Why did you just do that?" I smirked and said," You enjoyed it too, don't play coy with me... But seriously, I just needed the guards to not notice me. You were going to draw attention to me, since you refused to be quiet, I kissed you. I am really sorry, I know that we haven't known each other for long."
