He just shushed her. "It's all ok. I understand."
|
"O-okay..." She said softly. "Arthur... I just have one last thing to say.... I wouldn't cheat on you..." She looked at her necklace and slipped it over his head so it was now on him. "Because, I love you, and, you don't do that to people you love."
|
He took her cheek in his hand and kissed her. "And I love you." He took of his own cross necklace and slippe it on her
|
She smiled softly and slipped the necklace inside her shirt so it was against her skin. "Now we really better go check on the reports.." She walked back to her car once more
|
England walked back with her and got in. "I do hope things are going well."
|
"So do I... The troops should soon be realizing they are no longer an army of the now gone Zenrai"
|
"Does that mean the war is almost over then? I'd love to take you back home with me soon to the peaceful home."
|
"I can't leave my country when it's in this state, you know that..." She got in and started driving. "I have to help get everything set up for repairs..."
|
He knew that was true. "Very well, I'll help you then."
|
"Thank you..." She drove them back to the compound, noticing that there were less hectic happening going down.
|
He was happy to see less people dying. "Well, at least less is happening now. Less men are dying." There were still the injured to worry about.
|
"Then it's almost over... We've still got a lot to do..." She pulled up to the capitol building and got out of the car. "Now then. I really need to get to the war room"
|
He sighed. "So much destruction."
|
"It'll be fine..." She walked into the room and looked at the digital map that was on the screen. "Holy crap..." Only one block was in the red. "This is wonderful!" She said, her voice brightening. "Arthur! Look!"
|
He knew she was strong and she was telling the truth when she said she'd be ok. He took a look at the map and smiled. "so it is. Should we celebrate?" He was really wanting some alcohol to make things better.
|
"I suppose... But, not too big of a celebration... just a small one..." She went out of the room for a few minutes and walked back in with a bottle of wine, and a pack of beer. "Vinozian brewed wine and beer."
|
Arthur nodded. "Thank god for alcohol." He said with a sigh.
|
Vinozia set the alcohol on the table and opened a cupboard with glasses. "Sorry they aren't fancy..."
|
"I think they're fine. Who needs fancy right now anyway?"
|
Vixan laughed softly. "Of course." She opened the wine and poured herself a glass of the blood red liquid. "Which would you like? Beer, or wine?"
|
He thought. It would be easy to get drunk on beer, but he was an idiot when he was drunk, and Vixan didn't need to see that side of him. "Let's say wine." He said
|
She poured another glass of the rich red alcohol and handed it to him. "This is the best kind of wine that my country has to offer." She took a sip of her own and smiled. "Hand-picked grapes, pressed tenderly and fermented to perfection..."
|
"This is wonderful." He said aloud, loving the odd sweet taste. "Thank you Vixan, you didn't have to open a bottle of such a nice drink of you didn't want to." He thought the stuff must be priceless. It was so good.
|
"It's alright." She smiled. "This is a big day after all." She laughed softly and took another sip of her own drink. "This is a well deserved drink."
|
He guessed she was right about that one. "Hopfully that bastard you killed will stay dead this time."
