Chapter III: In the shadows

                                    

                                          
*Y/N's POV*
                          
It was 3 days after we encountered these girls. During those 3 days we found a place where noone could find us so far. Each of those days someone left our hideout to get something we could eat but on Amber's order, which I agree with, no stealing. But something good happened as well, at least for me. Each night Amber was sleeping while I had my hands wrapped around her. Whenever I looked at Fischl while me and Amber were like that she had an expression full of anger. Wait is she jealous?
                          
*Flashback, 1 day ago*
                          
When it was my and Amber's turn we went to a forest where we collected some blueberries, strawberries. We also took some mint so we can make a salad of some sort. 
                          
Amber: "What should we add. We have strawberries, blueberries, mints....."
                          
You: "What about hmmm..... I don't know." 
                          
Amber: "Maybe this is enough." We wanted to return but our path was crossed by a really weird black-looking wolf who had a white mask of some kind and was covered in something like bones with red markings on his head.
                          
You: "What is that?!"
                          
Amber: "You think it's friendly?" That thing then jumped towards us with it's claws ready. We dodged the attack.
                          
You: "Is that your answer?"
                          
Amber: "We have to kill it." She summoned her bow and started shooting at it while I summoned my spell book and was shooting ice crystals at it. The wolf died in a while.
                          
You: "What is going on with this world!"
                          
Amber: "Don't ask me. I don't know."
                          
We went back to our hideout where we told others what happened.
                          
Fischl: "Are you hurt Y/N?"
                          
You: "I'm fine. How about you Amber?"
                          
Amber: "I'm good."
                          
Barbara: "Well, what did you bring?"
                          
You: "On no. We forgot it in that forest."
                          
Noelle: "Are you kidding me?"
                          
Amber: "What? We got ambushed by that wolf thing."
                          
Fischl: "I'll go with you to make sure you won't get ambushed again. And that you won't forget to bring whatever you took with you."
                          
Amber: "We can do it alone. Right Y/N?"
                          
Fischl: "I insist!" 
                          
You: "We could use some help Amber.."
                          
Amber: "Fine." She was glaring at Fischl. I'd rather not pry into it.
                          
*Barbara's POV*
                          
When Y/N, Fischl and Amber left I looked over at Noelle.
                          
Barbara: "What's going on?"
                          
Noelle: "What do you mean?"
                          
Barbara: "I don't know if you noticed but Amber and Fischl are glaring at each other for some reason."
                          
Noelle: "Oh you mean that. Well it seems they both have a crush on Y/N and now they are fighting over him."
                          
Barbara: "I thought that fighting is more than glaring at each other."
                          
Noelle: "It's just a beginning. The real fight will eventually come."
                          
Barbara: "How do you know this much about this love stuff?"
                          
Noelle: "I was a maid Barbara. I saw too much relations while working for the Knights. And some of them were like between Y/N, Fischl and Amber. Who knows how much girls will fall for him."
