CHAPTER TWO
When I woke, it was well into the eleventh hour [Earth time].
I knew this because I looked at my watch [My watch- and many other items-
Master Fandarel wanted to take and study (I still can't believe that I
talked him out of doing so)]. I got out of the furs, though I did not want
to. When I stood up, I let out a yelp. I then said, sitting back down on
the bed, "The beds are comfortable, but the floor is stone cold -LITERALLY!".
Having found, at the foot of the bed, my slip-on shoes, I put them on (Of
course). Someone knocked lightly at the door and a light voice said, "Are
you awake, sir?"
I answered with a groggy, "Yes," after a pause I asked, "Where
are my clothes?"
"They should be in the press next to your bed, sir. When you're
ready, I'll need to change the bed rushes, sir."
"Fine, give me a little while," I said and started rummaging
around in the chest. I found a shirt, my light green, short sleeved one,
and my green pants as a match to the shirt. "Enter," I called to the door.
The girl, who came in, was about a half a head [THREE INCHES FOR THOSE
WHO CARE] shorter than myself, she had radiant blue eyes, long brown hair,
and a trim figure. If she did not call me "sir" so often, she would be
too perfect. She blushed when she noticed I was staring.
"Please sir, don't stare," she smiled," I am not worth your notice."
That irked me, "Who has told you that lie?!" I quelled my vehemence
after I noticed her surprise, "You are quite beautiful," she blushed again.
She was about to contradict me but I stepped in with, "Never let anyone
say you are not beautiful, for they are very wrong!" |
