Ball
That I will never finish that thought.
I didn't die as you can see, I am very much alive.
And happy, because I tricked you, maybe not all but some. I don't know when I will mention the 'You will like me thing'.
Maybe I won't do it ever… Do you think that will be unfair? I don't know. He is a big and important person in my life, but it's hard for me to talk about it now. Will you let me to say what happened after the fire?
Imagine this.
Huge hause, a room with two girls in one secong chit-chating in other fire broke out and both of them are laying passed out on the floor. Girl with brown hair is picked up into someone's arms and the other is saved by her father who smelled smoke and run to the room to save his daughter. „Hold on, it's okay." He sad to the girl caring her to the outside. Now firemans are here too, putting the fire out. The other girl, brown one is layed on the grass near her friend. „You are safe now."he sad with the voice that could calm a lion down.
Do you know to who that voice belong? Or not.
Woman looking like she is 30, is coming to her, offering the blood to save her life. But the girl's body in fighting it. Blood is everywhere now, she looks like a dead body. But her hearth is still beating. Doctors are taking everyone to hospitale and firemans put fir out. On that huge hause there is now black stains. Up, hidden in threes there is a men looking worried. Only the brown hair girl can notice him. His look is giving her hope to survive, and his brown hair is waving.
I saw him, I did.
But girls are important now. In hospitale doctors saved both of them, putting them in seprate rooms. Blond one healed from her father's blood, but the other has scarf from one eye to the lips. Fire must of got to her face, burning it. She is awake, I am awake.
Stop imagining, come back to me.
I'm here, alive not dead. Alone in hospitale room after the visit of my parents who came as soon as posibble. One of the staff showed me my face, cool scarf. It looks like tear fell to my mouth.
I hate it.
Jake also texted me, my dad talked with him, he should be here in any minute now.
Knocking of the door. „Come in."my voice still sounds scared.
„Ally!" he got to my bed and slowly, really slowly kissed me. „I was so worried, your dad called. God, I thought what the hell… You can't scare me like that." „I'm sorry Jake." „No, don't you apologise. I don't know what will I do if you… Never mind." I knew the rest.
If I died.
What would change? A lot of people would be sad and after a year they would ge over that, move on. Jake will find new girlfriend, Luna a new friend and my parents will live with fact that I lied when I sad that I will be okay. And my stalker will go away.
No, I can't think like that, I should be gratefull to the person that saved me. I just don't know who that is. The voice was so familliar, I heard it so many times…
„Your face… It is… The scarf." „I know, Jake but that won't change anything right? Between us."Fear went trough my body. I loved Jake so much and thought of losing him was destroying me. „No, Ally. I wouldn't do something like that. I am here for you, always. I love you." „I love you too."
Until Luna and I came back, which was after three days, hause looked like it did before the fire, new. Klaus and Caroline must of hire a lot of vampires to do the job faster, for the ball. Ball wasn't cancled, it couldn't be. I don't reallly know why, dresses and jewlery were over and ready for us to wear them.
After Jake and I exchange hellos and goodbyes he left. I was alone again. Nurse came to the room asking me how do I feel, I was only thinking about being releaved from the hospitale.
And that happened too, that same day. Klaus picked us up and drove to the hause. In the car he had to have 'that talk' about the fire.
„Luna I know it wasn't on purpose, but you've almost killed yourself and Ally… You have to learn to control it." „Dad, I am so sorry, we were practicing and studying the spells and that just happened." When Luna was sad, she was desspered to apologise. „We fixed all the damage we could…" Oh, know he remembered me too. Onlything that couldn't be fixed was my face. „Ally…" „No, don't. I was with you okay? We are both guilty equally."But deep, deeo down I knew that most of all it was her fault. Why do I have to be such judgemental person, I hate that part of me.
„So dad, what about the ball? You will still have it? Tomorrow right?" „We couldn't cancle, trust me we would but it is, what it is. Ally, your parents will be there too." „Great."I hissed. „You should go and see the dresses tomorrow morning after a good and healthy sleep tonight." „Okay dad, we will." She smiled, I didn't.
I had no reason to smile. She got healed up and I, I didn't my face is now looking like a kid drew on it. Why would anybody be happy with that, especialy if you have to show it in front of everyone.
I will skip the whole coming home and sleeping part, because it was boring, same as every other day. My hearth was craving for home.
Just I can't denie that I am a bit excited to wear that dress. Both are so gorgeous. Ball was at 9pm so he went to Shelly's in about 7. All of her's and staff from other stores gathered there to make a magic.
First was Luna, they pushed her inside of 'the fancy room' to do everything, and when she got out I was seeing someone else. That couldn't be Luna. I will now try to describe the miracle I saw, from hair to the feets. Her hair, brushed and shiny, picked up into an elegant bun with some curls falling down. Both hair and the dress were to reveal her shoulders and body shape. She wanted to also put out her face so lips were a bit darker then a colour of the dress,black mascara, eyelash and eyeliner. Dress was tight, especialy to the waste. Top had a shape of the hearth, no sleaves obviusly. Best part were diamonds all around the dress, most of them on the corners. Material of the dress couldn't be more beautiful. When she turned around I was able to see more diamonds making a letter X on her back. Jewelry was matching it completly. Silver neklace in the shape of a tear, suraonded by diamonds, big silver ring and braclets on bare hand and earings, also tear shape. Same colection as the neklace. Shoes were wite and ofc covered in small diamonds. She was higher then ussualy 'cause the shoes were high heels.
„You look… Wow." put mirror in fron of her and she stayed amazed too. „Thank you one more time ." Staff now pulled me into the room. First I had to take off my old dress that I was wearing, then they showed it to me. Dress was so blue, colour of deepest oarts of the ocean. Around a waste it had belt made of white rubies, top was one tiny line and mine wasn't tight like Luna's. It was acctualy but just to the waste, then it grew big, wide. Sure made to point up the top. There people doing my make up, putting my shoes on, painting my nails and brushing the hair or curling it. After they were done I took the step out and opened eyes to see the reflaction. My shoulders weren't revealed they were hidden with my hair, that was curled. Curls, lot of them all over my head. But back was opened, there was nothing there to the waste. Probabbly to feel partner's hand on it while dancing. Make up was lighter then Luna's. Rose colour lips, and rest same as Luna's. But make up couldn't hide the scarf, reminder was there… And at the very end, jewlery and shoes. For shoes there is not that much to say. White to match the belt ofc covered in rubies like Luna's. But my neklace was small howling wolf made out of silver. You remember how Luna's hands were with just braclets, well mine had gloves. You got thet right, gloves streching to the elbow, white. And rubie ring on my finger. I didn't need earings, hair was covering my ears. „You look amazing Ally." I knew that, it must sound selfish to say that you look good but I really did. I looked like a true princess. „You look like a star glowing in the dark." „I don't know how to thank you." „It's all set already. Now hurry up to not be late."
was right it was 9pm already. We were late.
Guests were all over the hause, but no Klaus or Caroline. One of the waiters came to us and pulled Ally aside. „You have to go upstair quick, your parents are waiting." „Ally, I will bbe here soon, mom and dad need me upstairs." I nodded and went to the bar for a drink. „Just give me anything you would drink." Bar tender gave me bourbon, my dad's favourite drink. „Thanks." Releaf, I could just observe people around me. There talking to someone I don't know were mom and dad, both so fancy and cute.
Mom had designed dress too. It was normal but still elegant, black also with revealed back. Her hair was brushed and picked up. Dad had his best suit.
At the etrence I saw rest of the Mikelsons, then Uncle Stefan, handsome as always, some hybrids and ofc Rose. She was more hidden in shadow.
Dress to the knees, black as night. Also designed like all other clothes.
Suddenly everyone stopted woth the talk and looked at the stairs, so I did the same.
„Welcome, our guests. Friends, families."Klaus. „It's such a plessure to see all of you together. We hoped taht this night will go into your memories as good one."Caroline. „Enjoy the night, but before, everyone find a partner for the dance." Now I was worried, I don't know anybody here. My eyes were searching and searching, to find guy standing few meaters from me, same age as me. Looking like he needs a company. „Hey."I was polite enough to be the first one to ask. „Wanna dance?" „Oh, sure." I noticed his look stoping on my face. He took my hand and kissed it. „I am Ally." „Kai." Kai, interesting name. Song for the waltz started to play. „Do you know this one?" „Oh, it's easy. Just follow my lead and trust me."
I don't really understand why but I trusted him. My arms were one in his other one touching his shoulder. His were one in mine and warm other one on my waste. I were right it's for the partners to be able to feel each other. I blushed from his gentle touch and leading. Two steps here, two steps there. He was so good at that. Then we had to change partners so he spinned me into somebody's arms. I saw my parents next to us looking so young and in love. Mom's hands weren't in right position, they were around dad's neck and his on around her waste.
We went back to old parteners in a spinn. Kai took me gentely watching not to ruin magic between us. „Watch this." He sad knowing that I will hear. His arms took mine and spinned me around once, twice three times letting me fall into his prepeared hands. This was best move I've ever seen. „You do get this." I let go my worries while dancing with him. He was tha leader, the king I was the queen. Music stopted too early for me. Forcing us to step away. „So what do you think? Were we good?" „You were awesome, that move…" „I practice. I have to say you look… You look like shiny stars brightning up the night." „Thanks." I got him to quick smile. „Do you need some air, maybe we can take a walk?" „That would be great."
