Jesse The Swordsman

Ander's POV

"So where are we going today Alex?" I said as I teleported us to the front of the mansion, "Ander you forgot already?" Alex asked, "Forgot what?" Tilting my head I questioned, did I really forget anything?

Alex sighed and said, "We're going to meet Jesse, My father insisted that I come to his house and introduce myself" She then grabbed my hand and ran

"Why are we running Alex?!" I said while running, Not looking back at me she said, "We're late Ander I was supposed to be there and meet my idol this 8 but its already noon!"

We ran through crowds of people some I recognise from yesterday while some are new, "Can't we just teleport there?!" I shouted as she drank a speed potion.

"No time and you don't even know where his house is!!" She dashed through the crowds creating dust clouds as we pass.

I was panting very hard the moment we arrived in a small wooden house in the edge of the inner area of the city.

"Okay we're here, remember act natural" Alex said, looking at her I really doubt that I am the one that needs to act natural.

She then pressed the button in the gate making music be played. A few minutes later a man's voice was heard.

"Who is it?" The voice said, Alex then answered, "H-hello I-I-I'm A-Alex my f-father sent m-me here" although she stuttered.

"Ahh you must be Brian's kid hold on I'll be right there" He said, Alex gaze snapped in my direction as she starts shaking me, "I acted natural right? Not weird right?!"

As I was getting dizzy I pleaded her to stop, "Although I don't know who Jesse is to make you act like that but I'll be honest" I said, Alex leaned in waiting for my answer

My eyes blank as a smile graced my face, "Terrible" Alex then slumps down on the ground, grasping her legs she rocked herself while silently muttering.

"Ugh great job Alex! So much for natural I wanna go and find a hole and bury myself in it" Is what I heard her mutter, I pat her back as trying to calm her down.

Before anything else could be said the door opened and revealed a young and handsome man with brown hair and forest green eyes.

"So you must be Alex" He said, he then looked towards me and was confused, "And whose this?" he asked, Alex then cleared her throat and said.

"Miss-I mean Sir- I mean Mister- uhh t-this is Ander an enderman defect, He helped me slay the ender dragon when I was in a pinch" She said, her face still red she went behind me and drank an invisibility potion.

"So you're an enderman?" Jesse asked in interest, I nodded and held out my hand, "You already know my name but just to be polite, Ander the enderman nice to meet you" I said.

Jesse smiled and grasped my hand giving it a shake, "Jesse a member of the order of the stone nice to meet you" he then looked behind me and saw the potion particles.

"Is she always like this?" Jesse said, shaking my head I grinned a bit, "She was just flustered to meet her idol" I said as I felt someone pinching my side.

Though flinching in pain I still gave my best to not show it in my face, "You alright" Jesse said, ofcourse he would notice, "J-just peachy" I used the phrase Alex taught me as he nodded.

"Well come in! Alex and I have a lot to talk about" he said as he went inside, seeing him gaze away from me I finally let the tears pour down my face.

"My hips..." I said, looking behind me I saw a now visible Alex pouting and crossing her arms probably mad at me for telling that infront of her idol.

"hmph that's what you deserve" She said, I apologised and went inside the house, "You coming or not Alex?!" I yellingly (New word?) asked, "Hey! Wait for me!" Alex said as she ran after me.

Arriving in the living room I saw Jesse putting down a plate of pumpkin pie, "You finally decided to come in" he said with a smile, "Sorry for that Alex had to compose herself outside."

I said while bowing my head, "No no it's fine so Alex we have to talk about some things" he said, Alex was confused but nodded.

Sitting down on the chairs we waited for him to talk, well Alex waited I just ate the pie in the table, "Alex have you offended anyone in the town?"

He asked, Alex averted her eyes as she scratched her cheek, "Maybe" She said, Jesse sighed, "3 weeks ago after you left to defeat the ender dragon the heir to the Stone family came to me and complained about you punching him and removing his chance to make descendants"

She stiffened, "B-but he was being annoying! He constantly flirted with me even when I said I wasn't interested" she said.

"I understand but the Stone family has more power here in the town than yours, so could've just used an enderpearl to teleport away" he said

"And two weeks ago I found assassins infiltrating your house, it's a good thing that your family has many capable knights or else your father wouod have been killed" he continues, Alex looked at the floor in shame.

She had almost gotten her father killed by her actions, "I understand Sir Jesse" She said, He then nodded, "In the meantime eat I prepa-"

He cut himself off as he saw a empty plate and a full enderman, which is me, patting my stomach.

They both chuckled, "I'll get another one" Alex nodded as Jesse leaves for the kitchen, "I really have to apologise to father after this" she said, "Yes you should, and did you know the pumpkin pie mister Jesse brought was better than the pie Hailey brought for me"

I said with stars in my eyes, Alex shook her head as Jesse came back with another pie.
