LONG TIME NO SEE :( sorry for making you wait this long for an update. FORGIVE ME!
Jerome sat on his bed thinking, he had a piece of paper in his hand and he was trying to think of something to write on the note for Mara. He was determined to tell her the truth, he was going to do, he just didn't know how yet.
Finally Jerome put pen to paper, he smiled reading the note one more before he shoved it in the box.
Mara couldn't believe that Jerome like her, Jerome Clarke like boring Mara Jeffray, she just couldn't understand.
Mara was walking to her room she was feeling very light-headed by the fact that Jerome was Anonymous Lover and angry at Mick for lying to her.
Mara walked into her room and was surprised to see a rose on her bed. She walk over and picked it up, it was beautiful and nothing like the flowers Mick gave her; it wasn't damage or wilting, it was perfect. It was then that she notice the note tied to the rose.
on the note it said...
This rose speaks of love silently,
in a language known only by the heart.
The truth will speak tonight.
10:00pm the park bench.
Mara knew exactly what bench he was talking about, she would always go there to think, it was one of her most favorite places to be. Mara did not normally break the rules but she really wanted to meet Jerome. she didn't know why.
"Do I like him?" Mara questioned herself, I can't possibly like Jerome Clarke...
It was cold Mara hugged herself for warmth, even with her jacket she was still cold.
A sudden warmth came over Mara as she realized someone had placed their jacket over her that someone was 15 minutes late that someone was holding a bouquet of roses and a small box, that someone was Jerome Clarke.
for what seemed like a long time no-one spook until Jerome broke the silence.
"Hey"
"Hey? I've been sitting here in the freezing cold for almost half an hour and all you can say is hey" Mara didn't mean for her voice to sound so cold but it did and she already regretted it. There was another long pause this time Mara broke it.
"I'm sorry" Mara apologized.
"No I'm sorry"
"What for? For being a little late?" Mara asked.
"Yes, I was late and I'm sorry I didn't tell you how I felt about you sooner" Jerome replied before giving Mara the box he held in his hand.
Mara looked at the box in her hands and then up into Jerome's eyes. Piercing blue eyes started into her chocolate-brown orbs until she turn her attention back to the small box she was holding.
"So should i call you Jerome or Anonymous lover" Mara smiled as she opened the box.
When you love someone,
you have to be brave.
Brave enough to tell them you love them
or brave enough to watch them love someone else.
-Jerome
Before Mara could ask Jerome about the note Jerome started speaking.
"I was a coward Mara, I wasn't brave enough to tell you how I felt and when I saw you with Mick...It hurt"
Mara didn't say anything and Jerome took that as a sign to continue speaking.
"But I do love you. I loved you from the moment you came into my room and I opened up to you" Jerome held the bouquet of roses out to her "And I always will love you even if you don't feel the same way, I'll love you until the last rose dies" It was then that Jerome reached into his jacket (The one he gave Mara) and pulled out a necklace that matched the earrings and a plastic rose. He put the necklace on Mara and place the plastic rose in the bouquet.
"The last rose is plastic, so it will never die...and my love for you will never die either."
Mara felt tears in her eyes what Jerome just said was so deep and thoughtful and the necklace was beautiful.
"Mara would you please go out with me?" Jerome asked looking into her eyes.
Mara was speechless so she just smiled and nodded her head.
Jerome smiled just as brightly as Mara had, He was so happy he picked her up and spun her around and at that moment, that perfect moment when Jerome smiled and kissed her she no longer felt cold.
"I love you" Mara said as they walked back to Anubis house.
"I love you too, just the way you are, You're perfect" Jerome whispered in her ear.
