Katie's P.O.V

I woke up to birds singing. It was horrible. Absolutely miserable. I was awake but didn't bother to open my eyes yet. My hangover was killer, and the birds weren't helping. I held my head and groaned. I felt as if I was struck by a horse.

I began to slowly get up when I realized that I was sleeping on top of a shirtless Thoren. Heart rate picked up as he snuggled closer to me. How did this happen? What happened last night? Did we....?

I watched him carefully as he mumbled in his sleep. I was about to leave and pretend this didn't happen but I delayed for a moment just to inhale his scent of beer. It was cute. But not long after I slipped out of his arms, making sure the blanket he had covered him enough.I decided to take a walk, but first making sure all the beer bottles were hidden. I wouldn't want Hailey questioning us about those.

At last, I began my walk. I felt twigs snap from underneath me, and the wind whip past me as it caressed my cheek. My hair swirled with the breeze, I felt gross, a shower was definitely in order. Yet, I couldn't have chosen a better time.

The time I'm in need of one, there's none in sight. Smart Katie, just marvellous. I walked around for about an hour or so. I even made up some time to wash up, using the near by pond and creating boobie-traps in the area to alert me if anyone was near by. I am such a genius.

Thankfully, I was smart enough to bring my bag of clothes with me that I had packed before I left from Pikoro in the first place. But once I opened the bag I frowned when I only saw a pair of leggings and a men's shirt that I recognized to be Dominic's. How'd that happen?

I shrugged and put the White dress shirt on and slipped on the leggings. I left my hair down not feeling in the mood to do other wise. I felt better, but still shitty.

I began to walk back, around half way there I felt my stomach flip. Oh no.

And with that thought, I held onto a tree and began to barf my life away. I briefly thought about my life choices, about how I came to this point and just simply thought. "I regret nothing"

"Katie?! Katie?!" I heard my name being called but I was unable to say anything due to all the puke spewing out of my mouth. At this point I was grasping onto the tree for dear life. "Katie?! Kat- Katie?! Oh my god" I heard Thoren say as he ran to my side.

I glanced at him, he was still wearing the clothes from before and he had bed head, it was cute.I coughed a couple times and told him "I'm fine, I'm fine". But he remained standing there. "Thoren, I'm serious I'm-" and I threw up again. "What were you going to say? You're fine? Yeah you look fine" he said sarcastically and I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever.." I mumbled, "here" he said passing me a handkerchief to wipe my mouth with and I did thankfully. I mumbled a thank you, as he assisted me back to camp.

"Do you not have a hang over?" I asked him curiously, as he wrapped him arm around my waist keeping me from falling. "Nah, I have a gut of a horse" he chuckled, and I raised a brow in amazement.

As we walked further, the scent of pine and morning dew filled my sense and I cringed. I hated morning dew. Thoren came to a abrupt stop and I became concerned. Is he okay?

"Uh, Thoren? Are you al-" and with that he squirmed away from me and hurled into the near by bush. I boomed with laugher no longer standing. I held my stomach as it ached with pain from laughter. "How you doing, gut of a horse?" I laughed, tossing and turning on the ground.

"Shut uuuuuuuuup" he groaned, spitting up what was left. When he was done he hobbled back were I was laying on the ground giggling my heart out. When he was directly above me I stopped laughing and said "you stupid" and began to laugh again.

"Shut uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup" he groaned again, rubbing his face with embarrassment. Dumb shit, thinking he could beat alcohol.

Our goal from then on was to go back to the camp without one of up spewing our guys out...again.

-------------------------------------------------------

"How much farther?" I whined obnoxiously and Hailey groaned. "We've only been traveling for 7 hours relax" Hailey said without a care in the world. My jaw dropped. I haven't had food for 7 hours? Ughhhh they're trying to kill me!

"SEVEN HOURS?!" I shrieked in shock, and another groan came from Hailey as Thoren smirked. "Relax, we'll stop and grab something to eat in 2hours" Hailey spoke again. Two hours?! I've never been so starved!

Thoren then quickly sent me a quick glances and smirked. What's he smirking about? Other than being starved, it was actually a nice day. It was warm and sunny, yet there was an occasional breeze. It was nice.

"Katie, we can't afford to stop now. I've already promised Lord Aphmau and her followers that we'd meet them in 4 days time... TWO DAYS AGO!" She threw her hand in the air with frustration. I scoffed "well, it's not my fault you have terrible time management. Perhaps next time you should make room in your agenda for food breaks and proper sleep schedules!" I yelled in frustration, as I threw my self dramatically in the horse.

Then chuckled came from Thoren a head to me. I scowled at him and searched for something on me, anything. Until I got a rock in my hand and whipped it as hard as I could at him head. Aaaaaaaaaaaaand.....Bulls eye!

"Yes!" I congratulate myself a little too soon never mind too loud, as he yelled in pain. I smiled sweetly, "sorry, there was a.......cactus" I smiled and he scowled "a cactus?" He questioned, and I put a finger on my chin as I pretended to think, "or...maybe when I think about it a little harder it was a prick" I smiled.

A hollering laughed boomed from behind me, and Thoren scowled at Hailey "what?!" She said defensively "she ain't lying!" She said with laughter.

"Yeah, well, you may be laughing now...but I seem to know where food is" he bragged and the minute he said that I stopped laughing. Food? Did he just say food? Like he knows where some is? "WHERE?!" I snap with hunger.

"Oooo if be careful there hot head, you seemed pretty desperate sounding there" he pointed out laughing. Scowled at the name. Whatever.

"Now...if I remember correctly, there should be an abandon apple orchard somewhere around here..." He said and I perked up a bit with a small smile on my face. Please remember...

"Ah! Yes! It should be right ahead-" with that I grabbed ahold of my horse and raced a head as Thoren laughed and quickly followed in suit. I waved through the trees as he kept trying to cut me off and I laughed, we both knew I was getting there first.

The sound of wind wrapping around my hair and hoofs thumping against the group was all to be heard aside from our obnoxious laughter.

Soon trees full of green dots came into view, and I sent Thoren a smirk, and flashes his pearly whites my way and I laugh. I'm winning this.

Once we finally got there it was a race for the ripest Apple. I swear there were none in sight. I ran threw the group of trees searching but nothing. I watched as he too couldn't find any. I groaned as I felt my stomach do the same. I was really hungry. Then at the corner of my eye at the top of a tree was a red apple. Yes bitch.

I climbed to the top, slowly branch after branch. The beaches scrapped my sides and arms but I ignored it, I needed that Apple. I made sure Thoren was distracted and didn't see the apple I was going for.

I tried to reach for it but it was too far. I tried again and no use. I sighed heavily with frustration and I tried one more time. With ease the small Apple fell on my palm and I smiled with joy.

"I got one!" I shouted, but then I lost my balance, fell. I screamed waiting to hit the ground but with what felt like for ever I felt a swoosh of air and I was in Thoren's arms. My eyes were wide looking at him with fright. I was trying to calm myself down, that could of been really bad.

His ocean eyes searched mine "Are you okay?" He asked calmly. "I'm fine....thank you" I thanked. I searched for the apple but it was no where to be found and I pouted. God damn it...

We just looked at eachother trying to even out our breaths.we probably looked like something in a move. With both of our heads having leaves in them, and the way he caught me felt like a fairy tale its self. I felt hypnotized by his eyes, they were so mysterious, and full of mischief. It was...weird. I don't think I've ever been this close to his face before.

I looked at his jawline, and his cheeks. I looked at his hair, and lips, his eyes and arms. Everything and anything you could ever look at. Then suddenly, something hit my head and plopped right on my lap. The apple. We both looked at eachother and laughed. Sometimes we were both so childish and competitive about things.

He then placed me down gently. " are you sure you're okay?" He asked "a couple of scratched won't do me much harm" I told him. Then we heard galloping from behind us, we both turned around to see one, very pissed off Hailey. I sent Thoren a shameful smile and he quickly did the same. Now how are we going to explain this......?

Hey guys! As you may know 'Our Dark Side' will be ending or taking a break. With that in mind I've been wondering if I should do the same. Please let me know. Thank you so much😘

XOXO
