This story idea came into my head while I was listening to the song Kiss Me by Sixpence none the Richer. Also I am a firm Maple Tea or Eng/Can Fan so here it is. Warning for a little OOCness and England trying to be cool. *Smiles* Eng/Fem!Can
My name is Madeline Williams today was kinda weird… For starters I found a note card on my kitchen table, and then another on my door step. They were kinda like directions I guess.
Note Card #1: Wear a dress and a sun hat.
Note Card #2: Come to the park at 2p.m.
My name Arthur Kirkland, I am somewhat ashamed to say it, but I've been trying to be spontaneous. There is a girl her name is Madeline, she probably thinks I'm boring like everyone else does but, ever since she moved to the apartment opposite from mine. I often think of going over and saying hi but, I think she already has someone. There's a boy that seems to go over there a lot, probably a boyfriend of sorts.
I followed the directions on the card, knowing that it was probably Al leaving them. Al is my older brother, he is always stopping by and eating all of my food and wasting my time. But I enjoy his company (most of the time). 'Maybe he's trying to surprise me with something; it'd be pleasant to do something instead of sitting at home all of the time.
'I knew it' I thought glancing down at my watch. 'She wouldn't come, breaking and entering just to leave notes was just stupid, and creepy… ah BULLOCKS" I said face palming. I was dressed in a somewhat formal get-up. A white button up shirt, no tie, black slim fitting jeans, and a black top vest with a slight steam punk look to it.
"Ah maple I said as I ran down the street." I took the cards with me, so when I got there I could ask Al about them but when I arrived there was no one in sight but a man in formal clothes. "Um… excuse me sir." I said approaching him. "I'm looking for someone here, I was supposed to meet." The man glanced down at the cards a smiled.
"You came!"
"You left these?"
"Yes"
"You broke into my house to leave these?"
Then I paused. It had never dawned on that that was indeed breaking and entering even if he didn't take anything. The fact stood I broke into her house (to leave cards maybe, but it was still a crime). She reached into her bag and I stepped back. 'Is she going to pepper spray me?' he thought taking another precautionary step backwards. "Umm… Miss Madeline I'm sorry I should have just…"
"Asked me in person?"
"Y-yeah."
Then she started to laugh, which surprised me. She simply burst into a fit of laughter and removed a note pad from her bag. "That one's going on my odd list!" She said wiping away tears of laughter and writing in the small note pad. "So Mr. Note Leaver do I get the honor of knowing your name?"
"Arthur! Arthur Kirkland." I said, I felt my face get a little hotter but just ignored it. She tilted her head and smiled.
"I believe you've made my day. Mon Dieu." She said grabbing my hand. "Well, you've ask me to dress up and everything and I'm here. So what did you- we...or us plan on doing?"
Lacing my fingers through hers I said "well I thought about a movie then dancing and then I could show you something amazing… it's not anything perverted or anything but it is simply amazing." I said trying to cover up the light pink layer of blush on my cheeks.
"I kinda want to see the amazing thing first if that's the case."
"Sorry love, but it's not the right time of day."
"Okay then I'll play your game what's first?"
"Then let's make hast."
I was the most amazing day first we went to the movies. And saw a really weird movie. It was one of those black and white movies with no sound. I think it was supposed to be a drama, but Arthur and I would laugh at almost everything that appeared on screen. Occasionally I would catch him look at me, the times when a caught him head on he would turn his head or pretend like he was doing something else. Half-way through the movie I glanced down and saw his hands fidgeting with each other so after a while I put my hand on the arm rest palm-up. After a bit of him no noticing or being to shy I don't really which It was, I nudged him and then moved my hand to his. I guess he got the memo because he grabbed mine and smiled.
Then we went dancing, in the park. It was really fun, and weird. A lot of people stared as us because it was around 4p.m. and we were ball room dancing to an Ihome playing classical music. After we finished that part of the date, I quickly jotted that down too (in my note pad).
"So it seems were at the end of the list." I said as he picked up his Ipod and Ihome.
"It seems so."
"That was really fun. Definably the weirdest date I've ever been on."
"I'm glad you had fun."
"So what's the last thing?"
"What… Oh. Yes not to sound weird-er but it's at my home."
I shot him a weird look, "it's nothing bad in fact it's not even in the house itself you don't have to go inside!" He said going slightly flustered. He was actually really cute when he was like that. I fact he was really cute in general. "You know the garden back at the Palace?"
"The palace I didn't know there was a-… Oh the Palace… My apartment building!" I said feeling really stupid. "There's a garden?"
He nodded. "This is going to sound really stupid, but do you live there too or have family that does?"
I started to laugh, which I think scared her. "Yes love, I live in the apartment right across from yours." She looked lost. "How else would I know you live there?"
"Well I..." She started to say something before I cut her off. "Let's just go love." She didn't argue, she just grabbed my hand as we ran back to the apartments.
Upon reaching them I let her through the courtyard that I was sure she didn't know existed. "Do you ever leave you home love?" I asked but she just looked about the structure as if she didn't already live there. After releasing a small chuckle I led her into the small garden area.
The scenery was beautiful just like the rest of the apartments. "Now I see why they call it the Palace" I said earning a giggle from Arthur. We spent a long time by a large fountain that occupied the center of the garden. Then I heard Arthur's classical music playing. I look to him he was now standing.
"Would you do me the honors?" He asked. I joined him in standing and took his hand.
"Sure. Why I'd love to" I said trying my best to imitate his strong English accent.
Again… My name is Madeline Williams a couple of weeks ago a man named Arthur broke into my house, and stole my heart.
~End~
P.s. There might be a Chapter 2 if people review…
Love Maddie.
