1 " My name is Arianna Morganna Brittany DuLac--you can imagine why I went by the name Ryan. "
― Priya Ardis , My Boyfriend Merlin (My Merlin, #1)
2 " Honestly, Evie," I huffed, flopping back to the centre of my bed and glaring at the ceiling. " Why don't you whine some more instead of actually doing anything?" " Talking to yourself is the first sign of madness," Arianna volunteered, leaning on the frame of my open door." Yeah, so's seeing things no one else can, but people seem to like that about me." " Good point. Odds are, you've been crazy for years now. I'm probably nothing more than a figment of your imagination." " If that were true, I'd imagine you as less of a slob." She sighed. " Isn't it sad that you hate yourself so much you can't even dream up a pleasant roommate?" " Not as sad as the fact that you admit how bad you suck as one." Flashing a wicked grin, she narrowed her eyes. “ I'd use the term 'suck' sparingly around me. Don't want to go planting ideas in my pretty, dead head." I threw a pillow at her. "
3 " Anyway, Arianna and I left the castle very late one evening. I knew the knight on guard at the drawbridge so I hit hit him over the head because I didn't want to hurt him.Garion blinked." I knew he'd be honor-bound to try to stop us," Lelldorin explained. " I didn't want to have to kill him, so I hit him over the head." " I suppose that makes sense," Garion said dubiously." Arianna's almost positive he won't die." " DIE?" " I hit him just a little too hard, I think. "
4 " The priest DID have it coming, though," Lelldorin declared hotly." What priest?" " The priest of Chaldan at that little chapel who wouldn't marry us because Arianna couldn't give him a document proving she had her family's consent. He was very insulting." " Did you break anything?" " A few of his teeth is about all-- and I stopped hitting him as soon as he agreed to perform the ceremony. "
5 " Well--to put it briefly--Arianna and I had become--well--friends." " I see." " Nothing improper, you understand," Lelldorin said quickly. " But our friendship was such that--well--we didn't want to be separated." The young Asturian's face appealed to his friend for understanding. " Actually," he went on, " it was a little more than 'didn't want to.' Arianna told me she'd die if I left her behind." " Possibly she was exaggerating," Garion suggested." How could I risk it, though?" Lelldorin protested. " Women are much more delicate than we are-- besides, Arianna's a physician. She'd know if she'd die, wouldn't she? "
