Note: I made this story where Elizabeth never met Ciel (She will soon) and that she meets someone else before him.
Chapter 1
I wrapped myself with the sweater Edward knitted for me for my birthday. It was a bit big on me but I know I'll grow into it, it just needs to take time to do so. I absolutely love this sweater. It was all red and it was extremely soft like a kitten.
I hummed a melody as I cross the lake in my brother's shorts. I stopped in the middle to look down and watch as the water rush by. I love life. I thought to myself. Life is so promising. I love the sun as it shines across the sky. As much as I love the sun, I also love the moon. I love how it glows up high in the sky.
I crossed the river and into the field of flowers. I smiled in joy. I started to sing as I pick a flower from here and from there. From all the flowers, I chose forget-me-nots, honeysuckles, periwinkle, and nightshades. I twirled around with my flowers, enjoying the sweet moments of absolute freedom. Freedom from my manners, my lessons, and most of all my corsets.
I sigh, slowly stopping myself from twirling. I flop down on the ground and closed my eyes. With my hears I could hear the wind gently blowing the leaves, the water from the river, a humming melody, the birds, the...wait a minute, humming?
I open my and found myself staring at a boy with jet black hair humming the melody. I felt like I wanna run away but once I saw those dreamy honey-colored eyes, I couldn't stop looking. Just looking at him, I could hardly utter a word. It was though I was under a trance.
He stopped humming and said, "Hey."
"Hi."
"Hey," He said again, setting himself to sit in front of me.
I smiled at him. I glanced down and noticed he was holding a couple of flowers. "You like flowers too?"
He blinked and said: "Yeah, here have a look."
I took got a better look at his flowers. There he holds roses, lilacs, water lilies, and magnolias.
"Sweet, here look at mine."
He smiles. "How pretty."
I blush.
"I'm Elizabeth, but you can call be Lizzie."
"I'm Daniel, but you can call me Danny," he says, "So Lizzie what brings you here?"
I took a moment before I answered. "Ah just fooling around, spending some time to myself."
"Running away from home?"
"Oh no it's nothing like that. I love my home but sometimes it can get annoying to be constantly watched all the time. Do you know what I mean?"
"Yeah it happens to me too."
I laid down my flowers beside me. "So," I stood up, "Tell me, what brings you here?"
"Oh um I.."
He stopped looking at me and stared at the ground. "Oh I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. You don't have to answer."
He glanced back up at me then back to his bundle of flowers. He then laid it down beside mine. "You know for a girl I kinda like you."
I blinked. "What makes you say that?"
He leaned in to me very closely. "Cause your mine."
I researched for Victorian flower symbols and here is what I got:
Lizzie's Flowers
Forget-Me-Not: Remembrance
Honeysuckle: Bonds of love, generosity and devoted affection
Periwinkle: Friendship
Nightshade: Secrets
Danny's Flowers
Roses: Love, hope
