Title: Trickster's Pawn 10 Rating: PG-13 Length: 200 words Competitor: Owen Round/Fight: 4 (Final!) Summary: PG-13, 200 words. Kel tries to talk Wen into telling the truth.
“What would happen,” Kel asked, “if you just refused to marry him?”
Wen blinked sleepily, rubbing a hand over his face. “Why are you thinking about that now?”
Kel rolled onto her stomach, propping her chin in her hands so she could look at Wen. “Because I hate knowing there's a limit on the time we have together.”
“Would you stay with me? If it was possible...?”
“Yes,” Kel said, fiercely.
Wen's face lit with joy, and he leaned up to kiss her, sheet falling away to expose smooth pink skin to the room's cool air.
She broke away after just a moment, and when Wen reached for her, Kel caught her – no, she reminded herself, his – wrists and pinned them at his sides. “Stop,” she said, though for a minute, she was half-laughing. “I'm entirely serious. What if you just told your father you won't do it?”
“I'd have to tell him why.”
So they were back to that. Kel let go of Wen's wrists, lacing her fingers through his, instead. “I think you'll have to, sooner or later, anyway. You're not made for keeping secrets.”
