"Auditions!" I say, grabbing my music and dance outfit on the way out.
Chapter XIII: Libido's and Losers
How could I ever have been this stupid? I mean, this audition means everything to me. Maybe that's little exaggerated, but still. I mean I practiced like hell for this thing and now I'm gonna be late?! It doesn't make sense? Why didn't I pay attention to it? Oh right, because I just found out that I am the rightful queen of Sparx and that I have the most powerful magic of the universe. Well, okay that's a pretty good reason. Damned, I have to hurry!
As I arrive at the audition, I see that Sky and Marisol are dancing. Huh. Not bad. Not bad at all. I can work with that. Oh lord I can definitely work with that! Okay what's wrong with me? stop thinking Sky is hot! Men are no sex objects! But look at him! I'm glad he doesn't wear tights. My my, he looks… I hit myself on the head. Shut up now! Now I will be glad that I have the chance to dance with him, since he has obviously gotten very good. Though something is missing. No no, something is too much. Ah! I've got it! The slutty tarty whore is too much. But I'll guess she'll keep training him. Well, it's not that bad, since she has improved, but still… What still? Am I thinking that I would teach him better? I don't think so!
"Bloom, princess of Sparx." The old man in the jury says when Sky and Marisol have left the stage. I look at myself and I realize I haven't dressed. Well then, the other way. I go on stage in my normal outfit and say with a commanding voice
"Mixtum vetes nunc,mixtum ut fulgor" Yeey! I'm all new now! Even my hair is changed now, it's in a loose bun, fastened with a couple of sparkling hairpins. My dress is red with a halter top and it ends just under my knees. My shoes are black with high heels and I… am ready to dance. I throw the CD in the CD-player and start dancing alone. Up down, and spin, step-step-left-right-left-left-down-stretch… suddenly I feel his hand like I did the last time, but I continue to dance, focused. I look at Sky, asking for forgiveness with my glare. He just stares back at me, hard. When Joaquin and I finish, it's deafening silent in the room. No one speaks. The judges seem to wake and call the next couple. I walk off, Joaquin is holding my hand as we bow. Once we're out of sight I let go of his hand and I start to yell
"Are you crazy?! You shouldn't have been here. I could've handled it perfectly on my own, but no; you had to barge in and take over it again! You know that it could've all failed because you just felt like jumping in?! huh?! I mean, we didn't even have a choreography and…"
"… still we did better than all those losers together." He says.
"You're right." I sigh "We were great." I look at him. But that's not the point."
"Bloom!" he grabs my wrist "Don't be mad at me." oh God that hurts
"Joaquin, I am not angry at you but you need to… I'm here too remember?"
"How could I forget that?" he asks and leans in to kiss me.
"I'm sorry I have to fresh myself up. I'll talk to you later."
"Nympha!" he says in a more commanding tone "I don't want to talk." He kisses me passionately and pushes me against the wall.
"Aw!" I say and I try to push him off, but he continues to kiss me. "Joaquin, please…" then I let myself go and kiss him back until I feel he's a little too optimistic about me and sex in one sentence. I manage to push him off and say
"Wait."
"How long?!" he asks angry, shaking me up.
"Until you learn to control yourself for God's sake!" I yell "Get off me!" and I run off. Who does he think he is? He's not getting away with it this time. I managed to stop him last time, and I will do the same if he tries again now. And yes I mean sex. Nice Joaquin put a spell on me so I would have sex with him. If that's not creepy! Yet I keep coming back to him. Okay this is weird. I mean why would I come back to him? He almost raped me the last time and…someone is walking behind me. I turn around.
"Sky." I say, trying to control my anger
"Trouble in paradise?" he asks. Is he smirking now? Yes he is!
"Everything's just fine." I say fake calm
"My guess, that latin boy is a little too potent and he has a very high libido however you want to remain a chaste virgin until you get married." I look at him, astonished
"How dare you?!"
"What?" he says innocently. He's just laughing at me. What a nerve! I walk up to him and place myself against the nearest wall, 'cause I just know he'll come stand in front of me. And he does. Men. So predictable.
"Okay; you were right about him but Sky…"I lay my hand behind his neck so he comes closer to me "Aren't all boys a little too potent?" I ask, innocently. 1-1! He's speechless! Way to go!
"Oh and…" I come even closer and whisper in his ear "Who says I'll wait until I'm married?" I kiss his cheek and leave him there, still dumbfounded. 2-1. Eat this, crown prince!
"Oh come on!" he says in frustration. He certainly is not getting any. So funny. Boys.
I go to my room and lay on my bed, just thinking. I look again at my right hand. I need to talk to him.
Ik di Eloin, ik di eloin
Bar eloi, bar eloi
Imme eloin, imme eloin
Only 15 seconds later he appears in a ray of light.
"Boy, you wanted to see me really bad." I say smiling
"You know I do" he says and kisses me softly on the lips.
"Joaquin, why did you give the ring to me?"
"Well when you give things to people, we call it a gift."
"Very funny." I say, throwing a pillow at his head "But why? I mean it wasn't my birthday, it wasn't Christmas, it wasn't Easter, it wasn't your birthday, it wasn't our… anniversary! Off course! Oh God I'm sorry, but you have to admit that we weren't really together and God I completely forgot it. I'm so incredibly sorry!"
"Hey, you came back to me, that was your gift." He says smiling and pulls me down, kissing me again. Suddenly he stops and looks at me. I sit straight again.
"Bloom, do you want to dance with me again?" he asks
"How can you even ask that?!" I say fake-angry
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have" he says, disappointed
"Off course I want to!" I say happily
"Wonderful!" he says and kisses me again.
"Oh God!" I could hit myself "But I promised that I would dance with Sky! Ugh so stupid! I don't even want to!" okay maybe a little, but it's better not to tell Joaquin about that since otherwise he would eum what's the word… kill Sky.
"Well then, why don't you go to the pretty prince and ask him if he wants to continue dancing with Marisol since you have found a exquisite partner?" I laugh
"That will never work!" I exclaim, grinning
"Aaah" he says pulling me down again "But you will try, won't you?" he asks kissing me again.
"Okay okay! But then you have to let me go 'cause I have to go all the way to Redfountain." Okay that's not true since he's probably still at Alfea.
"Fine" he says with a sad face.
"Oooh" I say compassionately "I'll come back as soon as I can."
"Okay, call me when you're ready." I kiss him goodbye on the cheek and start to look for Sky. When I walk past the linen cupboard I hear something
"Oh Sky, you have such a masculine body." Is that Marisol? Oh my God, he's screwing her! I knew it, that son of a bitch! Hold it hold it. Bloom, you are indifferent since you have a boyfriend of your own.
"You just want to say to your friends that you fucked a crown prince don't you?" he asks
"But… I…"
"That's okay; I don't care" he replies. Okay I think this won't take very long so I'll go to the nearest bathroom and when I come back, they will have finished. Marisol is easy to please and Sky… well he's a guy. I go to the bathroom, wash my hands and just as I come out of the door I see Marisol leaving the linen cupboard, walking my way.
"Bloom. Olà" she says cheerily.
"Well aren't we in a good mood?!" I ask, already knowing what she'll say now.
"Certainly. My pupil has just convinced me of his skills."
"Oh." I say slowly "his skills."
"Yes" she nods "Very impressive. Sorry you didn't get to see that." She says, grinning
"He's all yours." I say "For this single time" I add, smiling innocently "Besides, I have Joaquin." I continue, still smiling. She smiles forced.
"I have to go now." She says uncomfortably
"Yes, you have to practice your skills." I wink at her but she runs away. I burst into laughing. I mean seriously! I run after Sky, but he doesn't hear me so he continues to walk. This is not good for my feet in high heels! I finally reach him and stop him by touching his shoulder. I go stand in front of him.
"Oh Sky, you have such a masculine body." I say giggling.
"What did you just say?" he asks confused
"I need to talk to you. About the auditions."
