She fixed the bow and arrow set on her back, glad to be back. She couldnt wait until she returned and was glad to have gotten some of her stuff from the 'family home'. She had loathed having to go back home and deal with her mother and father. She hated them for what they did to her, and for what they wanted her to do still. She couldnt understand how some of the members of her family would still deal with them, but she just shrugged the thoughts away. She looked around, and dug into the pocket of her jacket and felt a piece of paper there and wondered how it had gotten there. She stopped and pulled it out, reading the contents, silently.

Yawning just a little, he walked right behind her, twirling an arrow between his fingers and he put it the tip to his tongue and thought silently, watching Leyna walk, watching her pull out the paper. He'd wait for her to say something before he asked.

She moved her eyes about the paper, a few times re-reading it a few times, before letting the paper slip inside her pocket again. She didnt know how to react to it. And wondered who had put it there and who had waited for her to leave before telling her. She turned around, looking at Alinthos. "One of my brothers were killed." She sighed.

"Why weren't we told when we were over there then?" He shook his head."It doesn't make sense. Perhaps it's just something to send you off in another direction." He nodded and walked beside her now, putting the bow away. "Mind if we go to my brother's to see my family?"

"Because my family is full of nothing but power-hungry idiots. I'm sure you've noticed that with my parents." She sighed slightly, and frowned, as much as she may have fought with Garett that was still her older brother, she looked at him and nodded. "Yes, let's go. I'd like a chance to speak to Maezyl."

"Oh good. I want to see my nephew, and I wish to see Maezyl as well and my brother even, and well, the other in-laws I have as of his weird and strange ways." He put an arm around Leyna's waist and squeezed playfully.

She looked to him and smiled. "To think once upon a time, you wouldnt have even bothered." She squeeled and pushed him off, then looked at him. She it might be time to tell him a certain truth. "Alinthos..I really must tell you something. All this speak of family, has triggered the thought once again."

"Yes Leyna? Tell me, I'm listening. I'm getting a lot better with listening." He smiled foolishly and then looked at her when she pushed away."I'm rejected huh? Perhaps I'll run away forever." He rubbed his eyes and smiled again.

She grabbed his arm, and shook her head. "You'll be doing no such thing. I'll find you, wherever you go." She laughed briefly and then stopped. "This is painful, but it's best to be said. The days before we parted ways because of...well you know. I found out that I was pregnant.."

He stopped walking and looked at her, his face losing some color at her words."You....what?" He shook his head, maybe he had heard things, he had done more wrong than he thought.

She looked at him sincerely. "I was pregnant, Alinthos. But after everything that occured on that day, it just slipped my mind. I carried on the pregnancy, until I gave birth. It was a stillborn.." She eyed him. "I wouldnt lie about something this serious."

"I'm sorry Leyna...." He sighed heavily. He felt like it was his fault, he knew what stress could do for a pregnant woman."Leyna...you should have told me earlier. I...I would have stood, I would have helped..." He looked at her with sad, and, shockingly, surprisingly, in what he'd either kept hidden or never did, was cry.

"It wasnt your fault, Alinthos. There is nothing for you to be sorry for." She put her arm over his shoulder and looked at him seriously. "It wasnt you which caused our child to be born as a stillborn. It was no ones fault. I was early in the pregnancy when the fighting happened that day, and although I was angry, I did control it to the best of my abilities..." She frowned. "It was not their time to live in this world.."

"I can't ever take back what I did, but, I want to make it better for you now, I want to be what you want, I'm sorry for what I did. I love you Leyna." He pulled her into his arms."Could we try again?"

She looked at him, then kissed his cheek. "We have both made mistakes, and if the one you love cant give you a second chance then who will?" She moved to his lips, and lingered there for a bit before pulling back. "Yes, we can try once again."
