''She misses you, you know.'' I looked over my shoulder to see my sister walking towards me. I turned back around and resumed watching the bright stars. She sat next to me on the low garden wall and I could feel her eyes on me. ''Why do you have to be such a prick, Ed.'' ''I don't know you tell me.'' I said sarcastically. She chuckled. ''You really shouldn't let you past get you. She really is something extraordinary.'' ''Yeah'' I said quietly.'' So what will you do about it.'' '' Hey, your one to talk, Su. What are YOU going to do about IT.'' '' I know that I have been denial about my problems ''she said choosing her words carefully. ''but I'M dealing with it, and so should you''. I looked at her and saw clear concern in her eyes. I sighed and got up from the garden wall. I threw her a despaired look and walked in to the castle. I really didn't know why was I doing this. Why did I listen to her. I could have just walked to my room. Susan didn't have to know. I knew she wouldn't ask Cleo and I could just lie. Then why had I walked past my room and why was I standing in front of her room door.
I lied in my bed, thinking, for two hours already. I kept twisting and turning. How could I be so stupid? I finally lied still on my left side, my eyes closed. I let out a deep sigh. How stupid. His words kept echoing in my head. '' I don't think this is going to work.'' Those eight stupid words kept bouncing around my head. How stupid. I felt like a school girl moping over her crush. He doesn't like you get over yourself. How stupid. I heard a soft knock on my door, but I didn't feel like talking to anyone so I ignored it. I heard the door creak open. My eyes were closed so I didn't see who it was. I heard the door close. I guessed whoever was that, understood I was sleeping and went away. How stupid. I let out a sigh. Then, I felt movement by my hand which was lying off the bed stretched in front of me. But I still didn't open my eyes. I felt a hot breath on my cheek. ''You are so beautiful when you sleep'', a voice said, ''but you're always beautiful'', a voice I knew far too well. A strand of my hair was tucked behind my ear. ''You know, I really didn't mean what I said back there at the party, I might have had a couple more drinks than I should.'' But that was a lie. I knew through the whole evening he only had a couple of glasses of champagne. 'Who am I kidding we both know I wasn't drunk.'' I smiled to myself. ''The thing is..I'm ... I'm scared of ... this. I just don't know how to act in a situation like that.'' He sighed sadly. ''And I really am sorry.'' I scrunched my nose of that word. ''See, your sleeping and you think that apology is rubbish.'' I tried hard not to smile. He sighed again. He leaned in and kissed my cheek. ''And I Love you too you prat.'' He whispered. I couldn't help, but grin wildly at this. I opened my eyes and saw his beautiful brown eyes looking back at me a shy smile on his face. ''I'm sorry'' he whispered. I shook my head with a bright smile on my face. I pulled him closer and placed my lips on his.
