As My Heart Dies-Chp22

[later tht night, the candidates sat together with Grimm as usual for dinner]

Wander: [sat near Terrance, making small talk with him, n encouraging him to chat with Grimm]

Hater: (sat across from them, glacning at Wander)

Loathe: [noticed n nudged his foot with her own] Someone's been eyeballing a certain furball~

Hater: <_< What's your point?

Loathe: My point is u don't seem to hate tht furball anymore than u say u do (smirk)

Hater: |-( Whatever.

Drizelda: [a few moments, stood up n clinked the glass with her spoon] Everyone, attention, everyone

Grimm: Drizelda?

Drizelda: Sorry, milord, bt there is something I must address to u, it's regarding ur favourite candidate over there (smirk) [smirked cruelly at Terrance]

Terrance: ?

Hater: (thinks; oh no...)

Grimm: Wat about Terrance?

Drizelda: It's regards to his intentions to win this competition. I heard from reliable sources tht this is not the first suitors' ceremony he joined. In fact this is his fifth ceremony he is trying to win. He already won the last 4 n her 4 fiances r waiting for him on his home planet (smirk)

Hater: :| ... (stands up) Hey, lady!

Drizelda: Pls, I'm doing this for the sake of milord. We don't want to let a serial lover get away with this, do we?

Loathe: Do u hv any proof of this?

Drizelda: [gestured her lady-in-waiting to collect the evidence]

Terrance: (worry) But I...

Drizelda: [got the evidence from her lady-in-waiting a few mins later n produces 4 pictures of 4 different men/aliens, with Terrance posing next to them in all of it] Here we go, ur evidence. Her parents made him go look for 5 potential candidates in which they will then filter n decide which of the 5 men is worthy to be his husband

Wander: Now u listen here--

Drizelda: [ignores Wander] N the kicker is they need to do this quickly before dear ol' lizard boy starts showing [turns to Terrance] U know wat I mean, don't u, lizard boy? The REAL reason why ur always wearing tht robes n covering urself up so tightly? (evil)

Terrance: ... ;(

Hater: ...Yeah, my brother's not interested to be in a relationship with a bitch such as you, lady.

Drizelda: It's not ur call, unfortunately, milord :^) N I had good intel tht the baby daddy is not evn one of the 4 fiances. He had a secret fling with the palace footman n got knocked up, n the footman ran off with another man, leaving poor ol' lizard boy alone. His culture doesn't condone abortion, so they want him to marry quickly to a proper royal so tht they can get it on n pretend to be knocked up by one of them n, oh, I dunno, pass it off as their species being quick to breed or something

Grimm: Terrance... Is... Is tht true...?

Terrance: I... ;( (got up and hurried out of there)

Grimm: T-Terrance! :O [leaves a dirty look at Drizelda n chased aftr him]

Wander: Ur not a vry nice lady, Ms Peacock!

Drizelda: Hmph! Says the midget who is not evn royalty. I bet ur just here so tht u can marry him for his riches while u hv ur secret affair with his brother. Don't think I don't see u skulking abt meeting up with Lord Hater, n then stringing Lord Grimm along. Shameless hussy :^)

Hater: (slammed his hands on the table) What the FUCK did you just say to him??

Drizelda: [was not moved by Hater's outburst, as if she was used to this sort of display] I called him a hussy, of course. Having an affair with u while stringing Lord Grimm along. Such a shameless cretin, bt wat can u expect frm a commoner? [chuckled haughtily]

[all the other candidates were murmuring amongst themselves, saying things like "no wonder tht lizard looked fat" n "tht furball must've slept ard a lot", etc...]

Loathe: [stands up] Tht's it! Dinner's ovr! Everyone go bk to ur rooms!

Drizelda: Pfft! Watevr. I'm so winning this, n if u knw wat's good for u, u will consider wat I said abt tht lizard boy. U DON'T want to go to war with me [walked away with her head held high]

Wander: :( [sat dwn n looked at his feet sadly]

Hater: (sunk back in his chair, pinching his brow)

Loathe: [glared seethingly at all the candidates leaving the dining room, then turned to Wander] U okay there, Wander? :(

Wander: Yeah... Yeah, I'm OK... I, uh, I gotta go... [gets off the seat n left the dining room]

Hater: :( ...

Loathe: :| [ribbed Hater] Wat r u sitting ur ass there for?? Hurry up n go after him! >:C

Hater: :O Oh! (got up and hurried after Wander)

Wander: [sighed sadly n was walking dwn the hallway towards his room]

Hater: Wander, wait!

Wander: [turned ard to see him, barely had time to wipe away the tiny tears clinging to his lashes] Oh, hey, Hatey...

Hater: Hey... :( Don't listen to what she says...you're no hussy... (reached to pet his shoulder)

Wander: It's OK... I've heard worst... No, I'm kidding, this is the worst I've heard someone call me, bt I can deal with it... [sighed] Sylvia's right. I hv no business being here. I should just eliminate myself out of this competition while I still can, save us all the trouble

Hater: (grabbed his shoulders, making the nomad face him) :| Hey, you've never given up on helping someone, even if they do say they don't need it, what makes you think you should stop now? You're the most helpful, most friendly face, heck even most kindest person in all the nine galaxies. You've never once let anyoine tell you otherwise from what you believed it and you shouldn't be now.

Wander: [was surprised at all the words coming out of Hater's mouth, blushed a little as he looked away] I... I thought u hated me... Tht u hate me being ard u...

Hater: Yeah... I know I say that a lot, but... I feel I only said that cause... a conqueror like me having a friend like you... I kind of worried about what people would say about that...

Wander: [sighed after a short pause] Bt look at wat happened to my meddling? Tht mean peacock lady found dirt on Terry. I bet Grimmy hates him now, n Terry prolly hates me as well :(

Hater: :( ... (embraced him)

Wander: [was surprised at the embrace, then returns it, hugging him bk]
