Summary: Will knows...What Allan doesn't know is why Will doesn't just tell Robin.
Disclaimer:I do not own Robin Hood or the characters.
Will knows. Allan knows that Will knows. Will knows that Allan knows that he knows. What Allan doesn’t know is why Will doesn’t just tell Robin. Why isn’t he shouting ‘traitor’ for all to hear? Because, of all people, surely it’s Will he’s betraying most.
Will’s his best friend. He could almost be his brother. No, Tom was never as thoughtful or as kind or as understanding as Will is. Tom wouldn’t have hesitated for a moment before revealing all Allan’s secrets if he thought it might benefit him. Will is nothing like Tom. Allan is nothing like Luke. Luke would not betray his brother.
Allan doesn’t want to hurt Will. That’s not at all why he’s doing this. In a way it’s a good thing if Will knows. Because then Allan doesn’t have to lie to him as well as betray him. Will’s got the chance to make him stop, but for some reason he doesn’t.
He just watches from the other side of the fire as Allan slips off into the forest, towards Nottingham where Guy will be waiting.
Allan pauses for a moment, turns to look at Will. He doesn’t speak, just gives him a half smile.
Will doesn’t smile back.
Allan leaves anyway.
