Hello guys, thanks for reviewing. My stories are going to be a lot shorter, so I'm sorry. This story will end at Chapter 27 or 28. Anyways, here's the story and I hope you'll enjoy it.
Chapter 25: I Remember
Brandon was just quiet. He didn't want to break the promise Stella's father had told him, or else he'll not see Stella anymore, and he didn't want that to happen. He just sipped the water and kept quiet. Stella was get irritated, so she just asked him once again.
"Can you at least tell me Commander Brandon? I'm asking you a question, and you should answer it," Stella asked, still being irritated. Brandon could tell she was being irritated, so he just didn't want to tell the truth, but he had said something else.
"Questions? I don't know if I should answer those questions I mean...I'm only your bodyguard and nothing else Princess Stella," Brandon replied. He stood up, and pushed the chair back to it's place. "Now, do you think a walk is okay?"
"Fine...sure," Stella replied, not facing him.
Brandon felt sorry, but he couldn't tell the truth. Stella got up from her chair, and Brandon pushed it back to it's spot. They then walked out of the dining room, and into the garden. They soon talked and laughed about stories they've experience back in the past.
"So Stella—I mean Princess Stella, these trees are quite gorgeous. Where did you get them?" Brandon asked, looking up to see them. He didn't hear an answer, and he looked back down to see Stella. She wasn't there.
Brandon then ran around the castle, and he didn't found Stella. He was worried; his head might be chopped off and be placed on a plate if Stella was gone. He then heard giggling, and looked behind himself, and saw Stella petting some huge dogs. He quickly ran to them.
"Princess Stella, be careful! You don't know who owns those dogs! I mean they can—"
"They're my dogs. My father gave it to me when I used to be young, just for protection. But now I'm older, he wants some men to watch me. I love it how these dogs would always keep me company and we would always play with each other. I remember how we would always play fetch and all."
Brandon just bent down, and placed his hand on Stella's shoulder. "Sorry, I didn't know. It's actually my fault and all, I shouldn't have said that. You know I—"
Stella placed her finger on Brandon's lips. "That's enough excuses now Brandon. I'm going to excuse you now. I have my dogs to watch over me, and some other guards. Now, excuse me, I have to—"
Stella got up, but a strong grip hold onto her. She looked down, and Brandon starring into her eyes. She couldn't help but to look at them back, since they were so gorgeous and all.
"Please don't leave." Brandon begged. Stella tried to struggle, but he didn't. She soon yelped, and her dogs barked at Brandon. He just carried Stella, the bridal style and ran with her in his arms. Stella tried to struggle, but he was too tough and all.
"Stop," Stella demanded. Brandon stopped, and the dogs did also. She walked to her dogs, and petted them. "Go home now, okay? I promise when I see you later on, we'll play fetch just like before. Now, I care about you, and I don't want you to be hurt. Just go home okay?"
The dogs nodded, and they licked Stella on her face. Stella laughed, and she waved goodbye. She went with Brandon, and sighed. "Am I in trouble?"
"What would you expect?" Stella asked.
"No?" he asked.
"You're lucky for now."
Stella soon walked away, but Brandon grabbed her hand, and held it. They soon walked to the castle, ignoring the people who were watching them. They went to Stella's room. Stella sat on her bed while Brandon closed the door, and Brandon locked the door. He sat next to her.
"Stella...I just want to talk to you about something. Do you love me?" he asked. Stella froze. She didn't know what to say, even though her feelings about Brandon aren't revealed.
"Why would you ask something like that?" she asked harshly.
"Well...I don't know but I...love you," he replied. He soon got up, but Stella got up her bed too. She hugged Brandon, and he was shocked from her movement.
"Even though you were still like an enemy to me at the start, enemies at the start, you make me change my feelings about yourself. I mean, you would always be like a kind man, always be there for me. I just don't understand why you'll do that, after all I was rude and you were rude to me."
Brandon turned around. "Does that mean..."
"I remember when you gave me that peridot star necklace. And it's right here," Stella said, snapping her fingers together.
Flashback
"Brandon! Where did you go? I was worried!" Stella shouted while hugging him.
"I'm sorry, but I got you something," Brandon said. Stella broke the hug, and raised her eyebrow.
"Really? What is it? Is it that cute scarf?" Stella asked. Brandon laughed and shook his head. He went to get something in his pocket, and it was a box. He opened it and took out the necklace. It was a peridot star necklace.
"This is for you. I didn't want to tell you where I went because I wanted this to be a surprise. Isn't this your birth jewel? And green is your favorite color right?" Brandon asked. Stella nodded. Brandon placed it on her. Stella just looked at it slowly.
"Brandon! This is gorgeous! Thank you so much!" Stella shouted. She then hugged Brandon, and they fell on the floor. The others turned around to see what happened, and they smiled. Stella thought no one was looking at them, and she quickly kissed Brandon's soft tender lips. Brandon was amazed by her action. When they got up, the star soon to glow.
"Brandon, the necklace is glowing," Stella said while looking at it. Brandon smiled, and holds her hands.
End of Flashback
"I remember when you asked me out."
Flashback
"You see the necklace you're wearing?" Brandon asked. Stella looked at it, and nodded. "Whenever it glows, that means you're in love with the person who puts it on you," Brandon said. Stella smiled, and there was a tear coming from her face. Brandon wiped it off.
"Brandon...you got this for me? It's so...sweet. I love you," Stella said and buried her face in his chest.
"I love you too Stella. I have...I have a question to ask you, Stella," he said. Stella raised her eyebrow. "Will you...will you be my girlfriend?" Brandon asked. Stella smiled, and looked at his generous, gorgeous, chocolate brown eyes. She smiled and nodded.
"Yes, I will," she whispered. She kissed him on the lips, and he gave in. When they broke the kiss, the necklace kept on glowing. Stella smiled and touched his face.
Suddenly, the both of them heard clapping.
End of Flashback
"You remember all of those moments? I mean...wait, does this mean..."
"Yes, Brandon, I remember who you are, and I love you," she said, while leaning in to kiss his lips. Brandon smiled, and wrapped his arms around her waist. She placed her hands on his chest while they kissed. They walked to the bed, and Stella accidentally fell. She kissed Brandon, and the both of them laughed and hugged each other.
YIPPE! Stella now remembers everything, and I wonder how? Find out in the next chapter, or maybe the last chapter. Sorry, this story was such a total fail! I failed on everyone, I'm sorry. I shouldn't earn these much reviews. It's my stupid fault, take the blame on me. If you thought this was going to be the most dramatic story, it isn't. I'm sorry, and it's my fault. But my new story To Love Another will be. I hope you can read it! Thanks everybody!
