I couldn't believe that I just cried in front of Gourry! It was so unlike me. But this whole thing was unlike me. I didn't like it, I was feeling weird things that I had never felt before in my life! I hated the butterflies and the way he made me feel altogether.
Did I make him feel the same way? To many questions for me. We found everyone else and talked for a little bit before Luna came and found me.
"Lina, come on it's almost time." Luna said.
"Yeah, yeah I'm coming." I sighed.
We went over to the backstage and she told me what I was singing. I laughed a little w what I was singing. It was called "I'm going to the dance with you." It was one of my favorite songs. Luna smiled at me before walking out.
I listened to the play that was going on in front; I smiled when I heard Claire say her lines. I didn't know she was even in the play till I heard her voice. She was so amazing at everything and always so modest about her talent.
The curtain closed and I heard Luna announce me. The crowd clapped and I felt those damn butterflies again. I walked up the stairs and the music started.
The rain may fall the wind may blow
It may get down to twenty below
I don't mind cause I'm going to
The dance with you….
It was such a cute song. It was actually my parent's song. My mother used to sing it to me at bed time. The song soon ended and everyone clapped. I blushed, bowed and walked off the stage.
"Lina I never knew you were actually good!" Zelgadis said in disbelief.
"I'm not. I hate singing at this festival." I said.
"That was great!" Said Gourry.
I blushed a little and nodded thanks. Luna came over and introduced everyone to Brent. I of course already knew Brent. He wasn't someone I could picture Luna ending up with till now. He was a little taller then Luna, he wasn't puny but he wasn't muscular like Gourry.
I always did like Brent though; he was always very sweet to everyone. He was also shy something Luna definitely was not.
"Brent this is Gourry, Zelgadis, Amelia, Reiya, and Auburn and of course you know Lina and Claire." Luna said casually.
"Hey Brent!" I said giving him a small hug. He was like the big brother I never had.
"Hey Lina." He said returning the hug. "It's very nice to meet all of you." Brent said smiling a little bit.
"It's nice to meet you too." Auburn said.
"Alright well listen the dance floor should be opening up pretty soon, and I have to run one more errand before that can happen. So Brent and I will see you guys on the floor later." Luna said as she linked arms with Brent and walked away.
"So do you guys wanna get some food?" I asked.
"Great idea Miss Lina!" Amelia said smiling.
We walked for a few minuets until we all smelled something amazing! It was Dragon Cuisine! I couldn't believe it! There was actually REAL Dragon Cuisine! How they managed to get it I had no clue and I didn't care it was real DRAGON CUISINE!
"Lina! Long time no see!" Said Andrew.
"Andrew, where did you get this?" I asked.
"I made it silly! I went and hired some fishermen to catch a dragon for me. Well they did and no I have Dragon Cuisine." He explained.
"You are amazing! How much do you want?" I asked pulling out money.
"For you and your friends its free." Andrew said smiling.
"Thanks! By the way do you uh still like you know who?" I asked.
"Yes." Andrew said blushing.
I smiled and looked over at Clair who was doing anything she could to avoid eye contact with Andrew. They'd liked each other since they were about five.
"Andrew come take a break and get changed." I said.
"Alright." He said taking off his apron.
"Lina is it me or does Claire like him?" Asked Reiya.
"Oh she likes him." I said laughing.
We ate our dragon cuisine as we waited for Andrew to meet us. Claire barely touched her food. Just pushed it around her plait.
"Miss Claire are you alright?" Amelia asked.
"I'm fine." She said simply.
"Do you always rearrange your food ten thousand times before taking a bit?" Asked Zelgadis.
Reiya stifled a laugh and Auburn rolled her eyes. Gourry had been pretty quiet. I couldn't tell if he was thinking or just totally busy stuffing his face. I brushed it off and kept stuffing my own face. Andrew had always been an amazing cook but no words good describe his dragon cuisine.
"Ok well what are we doing?" Asked Andrew.
He always was cute, not as cute as Gourry but his brown hair and green eyes made him cute and his personality was strong.
"Well we're all going to do to the dance floor so grab a partner and go!" Reiya said grabbing a random guy.
"Yep let's go!" I said grabbing Gourry.
"See ya!" Amelia said grabbing Zelgadis.
"Claire do you want to um…dance with me?" Asked Andrew blushing a bit.
"I'd love to." Claire said smiling a bit.
Gourry and I were already dancing when I saw Claire and Andrew step out on the floor. They were perfect together!
"Aren't they cute together?" I asked Gourry.
"Yeah, but they aren't the only ones. Look over there." Gourry said tilting his head in Amelia and Zelgadis direction.
"Yeah it's about time they get at least dance together." I said laughing.
"Hey Lina where is Luna?" Gourry asked.
"She was probably went to do something before she comes back here." I said simply.
"What were you gonna say earlier?" Asked Gourry.
"Um…nothing really." I tried to cover
"Well it didn't seem like nothing." Gourry said suspiciously.
"I was just gonna say we've been together awhile that's all." I said simply.
"Yeah I was thinking about that." Gourry said.
"Really?" I asked.
"Yeah, I was kind of thinking maybe we should.." Gourry started.
"We should what?" I asked.
"Do this." Gourry said leaning forward and giving me a little kiss on the lips.
