(Continued from "What's this?" in the Graveyard)
Hafiz heard her speak, which led to a sigh of relief escaping his lips. As they were laying there, he felt like they could stay that way. The world could be falling around them, and they wouldn't care.
But he knew that wouldn't be too smart of an idea, if he planned on protecting her.
He chuckled softly.
"You know, you can take this off," he said to her as he untied the cloth from covering her eyes.

Sara blushed again as the cloth fell from her face. She licked her lips faintly and slowly lifted her head. " Th-thanks" she said softly her gaze shifting to glance around. " where...are we?" she asked softly slowly pushing off of him to lay next to him.
Her gaze shifted up to the trees, it was only slightly obvious where they had just fallen from. She frowned a little then rolled onto her side " Did... we fall?" she asked the puzzled look obvious on her face.

"Judging by all the trees around us, I'd have to guess we're in the Endless Forest," Hafiz replied to her first question.
She had moved so she was lying next to him. He was glad to see she was okay.
The moment she asked if they had fallen, his entire body tensed up. He knew she was going to ask that, but he had hoped he could come up with an explanation.
"Did we fall?" he repeated. "Yeah, I guess we did."
That moment of worrying had vanished already, because, being Hafiz, he didn't let things bother him that much.

Sara was quite a moment her gaze shifted back to the trees then to the boy."How...did we even get up high enough to fall?" she asked a faint frown on her face. Slowly her hand reached out and softly blushed against his cheek, she blushed darkly and quickly dropped her hand " Sorry.." she said then glanced back up at the trees.
Slowly something clicked " Oh! are you okay? That must of hurt!" she said the panic in her voice as she sat back up and started to pull the boy up as well ready to inspect. Though her motions stopped soon, as a shiver pulsed through her body again. Her gaze fell to meet his as she waited for his answer. Somehow, she knew he was alright, it was just a feeling she had.

She asked how did they even get high enough to fall. Hafiz was about to reply, when she gently brushed her hand against his cheek.
He saw her blush, and let a soft smile come across his face.
He jumped slightly when she asked if he was okay in a panicked tone. She made him sit up as she checked him for injuries.
"I'm fine. It's you I'm worried about, sweetheart," he said as he slowly stood.
"Because I have a secret I want to share with you, but I don't know if you'll be able to endure it."

Sara nodded slowly a little more at ease that he was alright now that he was moving. She blushed when he called her sweetheart the smile sitting at her lips. As he stood she followed and smoothed out her shirt. " Alright..." she said slowly then looked to him.
"what is it?" she asked curiously her arms folding behind her back as she did. This was a little odd but she smiled her hands folding behind her back as she spoke a soft smile passed her lips and she rocked backontoher heels again waiting curiously.

"Well, umm. . .you see. . ." Hafiz stammered as he tried to explain. He didn't know why he was so nervous. She was his butterfly, and he had no reason to keep secrets from her.
"To answer your question from earlier, we got that high in the air, because. . ." he trailed off.
He averted his gaze from her as he revealed his wings.
". . .because I'm an angel."
He looked at her again.
"But I'm more than just that. . .I'm your protector. . .your guardian."

Sara watched silently as he stammered along his answer. Her head tilted faintly as he started to speak, then paused again this time something appearing behind his back. She stood awe struck her gaze following along his wings. Slowly she walked closer to him her hand slowly finding it's way to run along his wing.
"Your... an angel.." she repeated slowly her fingers carefully dancing along the soft feeling. " Your...my angel." she added slowly a little breathless, her legs were feeling weak now her mind was racing trying to process all of this. " I...I think i need to sit." she said slowly softly gripping his arm her other hand still softly brushing his wing

He watched and listened as she softly repeated what he had said and touched his wings. She grabbed his arm, saying she felt like she needed to sit.
Hafiz simply nodded as he gently moved her so that both of them were sitting. There was so much more he needed to explain to her, but he didn't care right now.
He felt as if he may be dreaming. He pulled her close to him, hugging her, reassuring himself that this was really happening.

Sara smiled a little once she was sitting. " this is all.. so strange" she said softly slowly leaning her head back against his chest. As he hugged her she curled up closer to him her eyes closing as she did. Slowly she spoke " I..Killed my parents." she whispered though her voice failed to hold remorse. "well..my mom" she corrected that other douche wasn't her dad. Just thinking of him caused her body to tremble in anger.
She took a deep breath slowly then buried her face into his chest letting out a soft breath slowly her arms wrapped around him tightly and she held him close suddenly feeling the need to have him tell her it was okay, but was it? She flat out said it was her that did it, and she flat out said she'd do it again. Her gaze slowly shifted up to the angel unsure.

Hafiz listened as Sara talked. She said she had killed her parents, and quickly corrected herself by saying she had killed her mother.
He didn't quite know how to react, but he didn't really care what she had done. What mattered was that she was with him now, safe and sound.
"Don't worry. . .things are gonna be okay now," he whispered. "I'll keep you safe. . .I promise."
He continued to hold her close to him as he started humming a soft tune.

Sara smiled a little after he spoke. " That's good" she said then slowly rested her head back against his chest the hum echoing softly against the trees. Slowly her eyes closed again and she shivered faintly " It's cold" she whispered curling up closer to Hafiz seeking the warmth he was giving. She let out a soft sigh then opened her eyes slowly "We shouldn't stay here... it's to open." she said then slowly pulled from his grip and stood. " We should move in case it rains" she said her hand reaching down to him a smile on her face. As she did " you might be ready to withstand rain but i'm pretty sure I'd freeze if it did." she added with a soft giggle
A tired looked sat hidden in her eyes as she spoke, she was tired but she wouldn't admit it. Not now not while she was happy. She was worried if she slept he'd be gone when she awoke.

He stopped humming when Sara mentioned she was cold. She quickly got to her feet, talking about how they needed to find shelter in case it rained.
"I'll bet we can find a cave around here somewhere," he commented as he stood. He fold ed his wings closed, making them disappear.
"Until that time. . ." he pulled off his shirt, leaving his upper torso bare and revealing his well-toned physique.
"Wear this to keep you warm. It's only a t-shirt, but it's better than nothing, I guess," he smiled as he handed it to her.
He glanced around, attempting to figure out which way to go next.
"I think I saw what might've been a small mountain over that way before we fell," he commented, pointing.

Sara was a little upset when he hid his wings again, but made no comment of it. She smiled softly and gave a nod " A cave would be good." She said with a soft smile. When he pulled off his shirt she blushed darkly silently studying his body carefully she pulled his shirt on over her head.
"Th-thanks" she said softly stepping closer to him again the blush stil on her cheeks. Her gaze was watching him as a hand slowly fell to rest on his chest. A shiver pulsed through her body as she let out a soft sigh then smiled a little.
He spoke of a small mountain then looked the direction he was pointing "Alright, Lets go look" she said her hand slowly dropping Though it was obvious she would have rather stayed close to him in his embrace. Carefully though she turned on her heels and started to walk the direction he was pointing. " It's been years since I've been out of that school.." she said slowly then gave a soft smile back at him.

As Hafiz walked along with her, she commented that it had been years since she had been out of that school.
"Well, don't worry about ever having to go back there," he spoke, "I'll keep you away from that school."
He wanted to embrace her again. He couldn't fight that feeling, no matter how hard he tried.
An idea sparked in his head, and he quickly swept her off her feet and into his arms, carrying her like a groom would carry his bride.
