Near the Lake

[Dahvie Ketley]

Dahvie watched the water as mysterious ripples were created by the unknown beneath its depth. He knew it was forbidden, yet for quite some time, he had been drawn towards it inexplicable boundary. The sun’s rays could be seen, poking through the thick canopy of tree’s above, but besides their light…Only darkness existed. Looking for something more…he waited.

[Morgan O'Donovan]

_{Morgan slowly crept up behind Dahvie, who seemed completely entranced by the lake's surface. "Boo." she whispered in his ear, putting her hands over his eyes.}

[Dahvie Ketley]

Dahvie jumped in the state of surprise. He touched one of the hands covering his eyes with his own. "Eh...Morgan?" He guessed. Although the voice that had whispered in his ear was incredibly familiar.

[Morgan O'Donovan]

_{Morgan felt Dahvie's hand attempting to discover the identity of her own.
"nooo," she whispered, "I am the mighty clover queen and I'm here to kidnap you into a world full of dancing four-leafed clovers..."}

[Dahvie Ketley]

Dahvie laughed. "Morgan..." He now knew it was her. No one else he knew had that sense of humor. He took her hands off from over hs eyes and turned around, smiling. "I knew it. I'm so smart." He said, sarcastically, making funny hand gestures.

[Morgan O'Donovan]

_{"Oh no, you just intuitively felt my godly presence," Morgan replied, making a silly face by wrinkling her nose and sticking out her tongue. With a sigh, she sat down next to him and grinned. "So, what were you doing out here?"}

[Dahvie Ketley]

Dahvie scratched his head and paused for a moment. "nothing really. Like I said last time, i haven't been able to get out of the castle as much as I'd like. Thought I'd come out here." He said, taking yet another pause. "What about you?"

[Morgan O'Donovan]

_{Morgan shrugged. "I'm just... y'know, hanging out or something. I wish it would rain, that'd be fun," she mused with a look at the clear sky.}

[Dahvie Ketley]

Dahvie laughed. "If I didn;t know any better, I'd say you were...stalking me?" He said, wagging his finger in her face, in a sarcastic tone of voice. Ha paused, then laughed again. "Just kidding. Anyway, I know what you mean. Rain would be nice. If it were to rain right now, I'd have to say that I would just sit out here in the middle of the storm." He cropped himself into a more comfortable position than he had been in.

[Morgan O'Donovan]

_{"Aaaah... yes... the clover queen is addicted to the Dahvie-ness that is you, and stalks you, determined to make you her minion..." Morgan said in the tone of a fortune-teller before laughing. "If it rained, I wouldn't sit in the storm, I'd jump around in it.... "}

[Dahvie Ketley]

Dahvie laughed. "The clover queen?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well, I'd sit here and watch you jump around in the rain, then." He said, laughing slightly.

[Morgan O'Donovan]

_{"Yes...the clover queen..."Morgan grinned, beginning to pick clovers from around them and assembling them into a chain. "I wouldn't let you sit there and watch, I'd make you join in. We can sit down once we're sufficiently soaked and exhausted from jumping around in the rain," she smiled.}

[Dahvie Ketley]

Dahvie watched her make the clover chain. 'Ah...right." He said, smiling.

"Well, then I guess I can't say no to joining in, now can I?" He asked lightly.

[Morgan O'Donovan]

_{"No, no you can't," she smiled. Closing up the clover chain, she placed it on her head like a crown. "Tada! Behold the clove queen," she grinned, getting up and starting to twirls around on the spot.}

[Dahvie Ketley]

Dahvie chuckled slightly. "A wondeful clover crown." He said, watching her spin.

He picked up a rather smooth rock and threw it, making it skip across the lake, gradually, it slowed down and eventually sunk to the bottom.
