Foster lowered her eyes. She had learned that to look someone in the eyes showed that you had confidence in yourself. that was something she lacked. Confidence in herself...

Jeff put a finger on her chin and gently raised her head. "IS something wrong?" he asked.

"I was taught... that to look someone in the eyes means that you have absolute confidence in who you are... I have none..." She looked downwards.

"Well you should. You are beautiful and powerful," Jeff told her. "Why would you not be confident in yourself?"

"Because it is my fault that my family is dead. It is my fault that I will end up destroying this forest! i will bear no heir because I am sursed never to fall in love!" She turned away from him. "When I was younger... a witch grew jealous of the power I would hold and cursed me to never fall in love... So with my eventual death: the forest will die."

"It's not yourself," Jeff told Foster. "Your family is dead because fate is cruel, and if you can't fall in love it is not your fault. HAve you ever tried falling in love?"

Foster shook her head no. "There has never been an opportunity for me to. No available men have strayed into this forest for years... No one has really come here since the war..."

"Two of them were taken, two were gay..." That made her smile. "Another was... he was a dark soul... there was the phenoix..." She chuckled. "But I don't think a shy little thing like me could handle a phenix..." She looked up, not quite looking him in the eyes. "But there is you..."

Foster blushed. "We already have a bond... And you are." She blushed alittle brighter and made her hair fall to cover her face. "You are quite handsome and kind... But... I wouldn't... wouldn't want to put a burden on you..."

"You are so caring, it wouldn't be a burden for me," Jef told Foster, pushing the hair out of her face.

Foster looked downwards. "But... you will die before me... Forest guardians never die, unless they are killed while defenseless..." She bit her lip.

"I don't care," Jeff told her. "And since I'm and Old Soul, won't I just be born again?"

Foster nodded. "But... I won't grow old and you will too..." She was trying hard to find reasons to turn him away from her. She wanted to fall in love, and Jeff seemed like the perfect guy to fall for. But she didn't want to get hurt...
