Chapter 10
It's been three days since the run in with the Imps and there marionettes and it was time to leave town to once again start our journey. I never did get up enough courage to tell the others that I had to accept help from Elliott, but they know that I did have help. Apparently Matt's going crazy with curiosity and that's keeping Aida and I entertained. The moon had risen and covered in a reddish orange-glow fog enveloping the streets; it was time to once again travel to rid the world of evil creatures that still went unknown from the eyes of innocent mortals.
"Hey…guys…. the vampires aren't in London like we thought they might be, or at least Elliott is not" Emily finally spoke up as the walked through the streets. Aida and Matt looked back shocked.
"How do you know?" Matt asked wide eyed
"I wasn't going to tell you but the person that helped me get you guys back,….was Elliott" she finished lamely. Aida and Matt looked in shock
"Why wouldn't you tell us" Matt said in a shaky tone
"Because, I didn't exactly know how you would react and didn't know how" I sighed out, as Matt continued to steam Aida came over
"Emily why would you think we would respond badly?" she asked oh so innocently
"Because, he's the enemy" I said in frustration at myself.
It's actually been days since that little spat, Aida is as friendly as ever trying to cool everything down, but Matt is unrelenting. Will our friendship ever go back to the way it was? I really hope so with all my heart I do, not talking to someone who was like family to me is tearing me apart, I can only imagine how he must feel or have felt. We had finally made it to another town and thank god we still had a bit of extra cash to buy a room to sleep. Even after buying a room Matt still gave me the cold shoulder. Time really slows down when someone you love ignores you. All through the night, as the moon started to reach its peak I could not sleep. Crickets chirped singing their sorrowful songs, While Matt and Aida slept peaceful through the night, though sadly I still could not when THUMP, KNOCK, BUMP, I heard like a strange knocking at the door, but it was from the window. Walking over to see what it could possibly be I saw, I opened the curtain to reveal a little pixie. She floated knocking again then pointing up, signaling to the roof. People always said that curiosity killed the cat; well luckily I am no cat so I went up to see what the little pixie wanted. Their she floated again no bigger then my hand, long blond hair, black eyes rimmed red and torn translucent wings; her skin had a mysterious glow. I was so interested about the little pixie that I did not notice Elliott, who had grabbed me from behind. His grip was too tight, so I couldn't escape no matter how I struggled.
"Elliott?! What do you want?" I cried frustrated. Struggling to try to get away, but to no avail.
"Just needed to see you again" he whispered into my ear with a velvety voice sending my heart beats into hysterics. Stop pounding stupid heart he'll hear you I though to myself, though the stupid thing had already given me away and was smirking.
"W-What?" I asked nervously, as he turned me around to stare into my eyes.
"Just wandering if you have finally realized our feelings for each other" He smirked again
"NEVER"I yelled being defiant as possible. He then lent closer an inch from my lips, his breathing warm and sweet.
"What about now" he whispered, I was too focused on his lips and trying to stop my heart from beating a mile a minuet to realize I had shook my head YES. "Good" he smiled, then clashed his lips to mine. I couldn't stop myself from gladly kissing back, his lips tasted like strawberries. He moved back to let me breathe then once again his lips clashed with mine, heat flowing to my face. I blushed like crazy as my heart rushed, completely melting into this intoxicating kiss. Elliott nipping at my lips asking for entrance, I gladly accepted and let Elliott slip in, our tongues entwined, as our bodies warmed up from the cold that surrounded us. I strangely didn't even want to stop Elliott's starting to wander hands as he moved them up and down my sides, then finally landing on my butt. Anybody else and I would have completely freaked out and punched
him, but with Elliott at this very moment it all felt so natural, them kissing under the full moon, the slight breeze that flew around them, when all the sudden the little pixie decided she was tired of being ignored and started poking Elliott till he paid attention to her, she was very stubborn to my surprise she did not look like the type. "It seems I have to go" he laughed "until next time" and he gave me one final kiss. I have no clue when I started accepting my feelings for him, but at the moment I rather didn't care either, but now I had a bigger dilemma to tell Aida and Matt or not, well I'll have to figure that out in the morning.
I hope you like the story so far, please R&R if you get the chance.
