~~***Okay, this will be the romantic part of the story, I thought of it this morning, I hope you like it!!~~***
I opened my eyes slowly, I looked up, and Joel was awake, reading a magazine. He looked down at me, and smiled.
"Hey, good morning."
I just smiled.
"Did you go to sleep last night Joel?"
"Yeah, but I was gona get up, but I didn't want to wake you up. So, I remembered I had a bunch of old comic books under the bed, so I started to read them."
"Oh, Cool...did the uh, power come on yet?"
"Yeah, Martin came and fixed the box outside."
"So, do you have work today?"
"Yeah, I gota get ready."
"Okay."
I sat up, and got out of bed. Joel went to the dresser, and got out his clothes. I went into the living room to change. He came out just as I slipped my shirt on.
"S-sorry.."
He stepped into the bathroom quickly. I chuckled lightly in my throat. I sat on the couch, and watched the clouds chase the sun. Joel came out with his toothbrush in his mouth and he walked around brushing his teeth. I brushed my hair, and put it up in a ponytail. After Joel was done in the bathroom, I went in and did all that fun stuff, IE, brushing teeth, going to the bathroom, washing my face, Ect, ect. I walked out of the bathroom and Joel came in with the mail.
"Bills, Bills, Junk,....., Flyer..... Oh cool, the Cosmo dance is here."
"Cosmo dance?"
"Yeah the 'dance under the stars' its this time every year when the stars are at the brightest time of the year."
"Oh.. Cool."
There was a long suspenseful pause..
"Do you want to go with me?"
He blurted out.
"I'd love to.."
He looked at me in shock.
He smiled crookedly and arched his eyebrow.
"Well, uh, lets get ready for work.."
"O okay."
I glanced at the flyer; there was last years 'Star Prince' And 'Moon Princess' it looked like a ball type event. I walked out the door, and saw a lot of people. And it looked like that this town didn't have a lot of people.... There were people getting ready for tonight, putting up decorations, tables, and the stereo.. I looked over to one of the shops and saw beautiful dresses. Joel walked into the store and went behind the counter.
"Uh, Joel?"
"Yeah?"
"Can I go to your house, I forgot something.."
"Okay...?"
"Thanks, I'll be right back."
I walked quickly out of the store, up to Joel house, and went into my bag, and got my Gill.
"525.... Okay.. good."
I got up quickly and ran out the door. I walked into the store. It wasn't really crowded. Casually I walked up and down the isles, trying to eye out the coolest dress. A lady tapped me on the shoulder.
"May I help you miss?"
"Um, maybe..."
"Are you going to tonight's dance?"
I nodded my head, and looked at some of the dresses.
"Who's the lucky date?"
"Umm, Joel McCain.."
"Oh, really?"
I nodded my head again. The lady was about 19, dark black hair, and Ice Blue eyes, She was pale, and skinny.
"I think I can find something myself, um thanks anyway."
I smiled slowly. I quickly walked down the isle. In the back of the store, there were some pictures of previous years of the dance. I looked at them closely. When something caught my eye. I looked to my right, when I saw the perfect dress. It was light blue lace and silk, it wasn't big, or elegant looking like all of the dresses, it looked comfortable. I touched the dress and felt the soft silk. I put it up to me, and it was almost a perfect fit. It was a bit long, but a pair of high heels would help. I looked at the price tag on the dress it was 350 gill. I smiled to myself; I neatly folded the dress, and was on the search for some shoes. I walked next to the accessories and in a little room was the shoes. I was looking for a pair of blue high heels, but they only had white. So I shrugged my shoulders and got the white shoes. 35Gill.
"385 Gill, not bad.."
I went to the counter and paid for my dress, and shoes, and I walked out the door. I went to Joel's house again, and put it on. I smiled to myself.
".... Perfect..."
I took it off and hung it up in the closet. I went into my bag, and got my Sunglasses, and I walked towards the store again. I saw Joel outside having a cigarette break.
"What took you so long?"
"Uh, I couldn't find my glasses, so I had to take apart my whole bag.."
"oh. Okay. Um, I gota get a suit for tonight, Martin's in there, can you give him a hand?"
"Oh, sure."
"okay."
He put out the cigarette and walked to his house. I walked in the store and saw Martin: he was tending to a customer. He smiled at the lady, and looked at me in a flirty way.
"So....do you like Cosmo?"
"...Yeah, its cool."
"Did you see the stars yet?"
"......no........Not yet.."
"I could show them to you.."
"Ummm, no, its okay."
I said nervously.
"Are you sure?"
"..Y-Yeah."
"Okay...............So, uh- Do you have a date for the dance tonight?"
"Yes.."
He was silent.
"Joel huh?"
"Yep.."
"Dammit."
"..Yeah.."
"Well, um, I gota get a smoke, ill be right back."
"Wa- wai- aw come on! I don't know what to do by myself!!........ MARTIN!!"
He walked out the door.
"MARTIN!!! God dammit..."
I sat on the chair behind the counter. I turned around on the spiny chair and looked back in the storage area. I was going to get up, when the bell for service rang. I spun around, and looked at the counter, it was Joel.
"Hey, sorry I took so long...I had to go in the basement to find it."
"Oh, its okay."
"Do you have your dress ready for tonight?"
"Um, No, I didn't get one yet."
"You'd better hurry, the dance starts at 8:00.."
"That's like, four hours away."
"okay.."
"Where's Martin?"
"I ate him.."
"Oh really?"
He said with a chuckle.
"No, he went out to have a smoke, I guess I made him mad."
"What happened?"
"He asked me if I would be his date, and I said 'no' that's all."
"Oh, okay."
***~~~~~~~A few hours later***~~~~~~~
"Well, time to close up, its 7:45."
"O okay, I gota go look for a dress.."
"Alright, all stores close at 8, you'd better hurry..."
"Okay..I will."
I walked out of the store, and out onto the center of town. It was really pretty. I've never seen anything like it before. It was beyond my imagination. The lights were shining, the fire crackled softly, the food was being prepared...It looked like it was out of a fairy tale. I continued to walk up the stairs, and into his house. I went into his room, and locked the door. I took out the dress, and put it on, and did my hair. When I was satisfied, I sat on the corner of the bed, and put my shoes on. A firework was set off, and the music started to play. I looked at myself one more time in the mirror and walked to the middle of the town. I looked around curiously to see if I could see Joel. I walked around casually, when I saw him. He looked at me, and his mouth hung open. He walked towards me and he took my hand.
"Wow, you-you look beautiful."
"Thank you...You look handsome."
His face blushed. He took my arm, and we walked out on the dance floor. He stopped and looked at me.
"May I have this dance?"
I nodded my head slowly. He pulled me closely, and put his arms around my waist. I rested my head on his shoulder, and I closed my eyes. When the song ended, I didn't want to let go; I didn't want to let go of that moment.. He whispered..
"Are ya hungry?"
"No. Not really."
"Okay, Do you want to see the stars now?"
"I would love to."
He took my arm again, and we walked past his house, and the INN, and up a long set of stairs that led to the telescope. He set the telescope and looked through it.
"Oh god, look at this."
"What?"
"There's two stars missing.."
"Oh, my...is that good or bad?"
"Its good.."
"Why?"
"Because those two stars are in your eyes.."
I felt my face blush. He smiled and lifted my chin.. I smiled at him. And he smiled back. He put his hand on my face, and caressed it softly.. And he leaned forward, and kissed me softly on the lips. I closed my eyes, and he looked at me again, my eyes were still closed, and my lips were puckered a little bit. He laughed lightly, and then I opened my right eye first, then my left eye. And I smiled embarrassedly He kissed me again, and I felt his tongue trying to work its way in. a firework was shot in the air, and I jumped a bit.
"S-sorry, that firework kind of scared me.."
"Heh, its okay..."
There was a long pause...
"So, do you want to see the stars now?"
I looked at him blankly.
"I-I just want to live this night, just as it is, right now.. I want to be alone with you.."
I had no idea what I just said. He just looked at me, and then he smiled.
"I'll take you to my favorite place...Come on."
He took my hand and went behind the telescope, there again, was another set of steps, it was much higher, and it led up to a balcony. I walked over to the railing, and I could see the whole town lit up. It was very pretty.
"This is where I go when I need to be alone, it makes me feel better."
"Its-Its Breath-taking..."
He came up from behind me and he wrapped his arms around me.
"Not as breath-taking as you."
I've never been complimented like this before, so I was speechless. He kissed my shoulder. I looked down to the bottom, where the dance was and out of the crowd, I saw that girl, and she was glaring up at me. I saw Martin walk up behind her and he gave her a drink of punch. I looked away quickly.
"Umm, my feet are killing me..."
They were, I mean come-on, it was the 1st time in years I've worn high heels.
"O, do you want to sit down?"
I nodded.
"Ok."
He picked me up, and looked at me. I put my hand on his face, and I kissed him tenderly on the lips. He walked over to a bench, and sat me down. And he sat down beside me. I looked out into the night sky, and then it hit me..
*(Oh my god, what am I doing? I'm falling in love with him.. I'm not here for love; I want to find out my past...... But, he's so cute, and this means a lot to me.. I've never felt loved before.... maybe I'll find out my past as I go along. Right now, I want to be in love, with Joel... This is what I wanted. Someone to love--)*
"Are you okay?"
"Yes, Yes I'm fine."
I asked myself, (What?! I'm not fine!! I'm excited, I cant hold it anymore...*Whew* I have to chill...) I finally broke the silence I had to say something, it was too quiet.
"So-Now what?"
"What do you mean?"
"Like, what are we going to do now?"
"I don't know, aren't you going to find your parents?"
"Well- something has come-up."
"What's that?"
"I'm...Not sure how to say it really..But-"
Martin came walking up the stairs.
"Hey, are ya busy?"
"Yeah Martin, We were busy...What do you want?"
"They are picking the 'Star Prince' and 'Moon Princess'"
"Oh, right..."
I looked at Joel, He smiled tenderly and he walked to me and he helped me up. He held his hand out, and I put my hand on his, and I put my arm around his. We walked down the steps onto the floor, and awaited the votes. A man about 30 went up to the microphone, and there was a little of feedback.
"Whoa, um- Ladies and gentlemen, as the Mayor of Cosmo Canyon, I'd like to welcome the 30th year anniversary Cosmo dance 'under the stars'. Do you remember last years winners?"
He moved out of the way, and there sat a young woman about 18, with red hair, and a young man about 20, with dark brown hair. They waved and smiled to the crowd.
"Yes, a mighty fine couple.. Anyway, let us pick this year winners. Ok, the winner of the Cosmo dance 'under the stars' is...."
There was a long dramatic pause....
"Martin Dustan and Anne Yulee!"
Joel was silent..
"Wow Joel, Martin, lucky son of a-"
"Well, um, we must go now."
"Why?-"
"Ok people, settle down..Now the new winners get to dance the special dance."
The music played softly, and it gradually got louder...Martin and Anne walked out in the middle of the dance floor and danced slowly. Gradually the rest of the crowd came in too.
"Well, I want to be alone with you..."
I smiled and I nudged him in the side playfully.
"Why?"
I said curiously, but I was just playing hard to get attitude.
"Because, you should have been the 'Moon Princess'"
"Oh, its quite alright...I know that I am a Princess because I have a Prince charming like you."
His face got red, and he smiled. He took my hand and we went back to his place. I sat on the couch and sighed in relief.
"Whew, I'm so glad that I could take off those shoes."
Each shoe fell from my foot with a loud thud. I wiggled my toes to try to regain the feeling in them. He came out of the bathroom, in a pair of boxers, and socks. He sat on the couch next to me.
"Well, I'll be right back, okay?"
"Okay"
I put my finger on his nose playfully, and I smiled. I walked into the bedroom and changed into my pj's. (The notorious green silky pj's) And I walked out and sat closely beside Joel. He put his arm around me and we were about to kiss, when there was a loud knock on the door.
"God dammit! Can't I get any peace!!"
He said jokingly. The knocking continued, he got up and looked at me.
"Stay..stay there..."
He smiled and opened the door.
"Hey Jo- Ooo la la, what are YOU doing?"
"Sitting with Zeal...What are YOU doing?"
He said mockingly.
"Well, Anne and I are wondering if you guys wanted to come to our place, and we could get smashed."
Joel put his hand on Martins shoulder and pushed him out of the house.
"Look Mart, I don't want anything to do with Anne anymore, I don't even want to be in the same house as her. Ok? I'm kind of busy..ok?"
"Alrighty...not my loss"
"Ok, whatever, now go have sex with her."
"Ahhhhh I wont. Haha"
"Haha"
He said mockingly. He walked backward and shut the door right in front of his face.
"Don't you think that was a bit mean?"
"Naaah, were usually mean to each other............Now...where were we?"
He smiled and kissed me on the cheek, then he made his way to my lips. I leaned backwards until he was on top of me. My hands went up and down his back, and I felt the small goose bumps on his back. I wrapped my legs around his, and we were still kissing, but more 'into' it now (~I can't think of the word!!~) And then he kissed my chin, and then my neck. He kissed my collarbone, and then he stopped. His hands slid lightly up my side, under my shirt, I took my hand and I stopped him.
"...Sorry, I'm not ready to go that far yet.."
"Oh, its okay...I understand."
We sat up, and I fixed my shirt, while he 'adjusted himself' I sighed and looked at him. He smiled back.
"It's already 12:00?"
"mm hmmm"
"I'm ready to hit the sac, wana join me?"
"Sure."
I smiled at him again and we walked to his room, I crawled in the opposite side from him, and he turned the light off. He went in his side and I snuggled beside him.
"Goodnight.."
"night..."
"I'll see ya in the morning"
"Okay, goodnight Joel"
He kissed me on the lips, and when I was comfortable, I closed my eyes and went to sleep.
(~Hah! Whaddya think about that?! That took me about 4 days to write this! B/c I'm in school, and I really cant write that deep of a story plot yet. I thought this was pretty funny in some ways...But that's just me. I also thought that Joel was very romantic. I want you to know, that Joel isn't a wuss, hes tough and yes, there is a soft spot that guys have for us girls. :-D I'm so looking forward of what might happen. I've got a pretty good idea, but im a bit burnt out now. I will post another ASAP. Thanks!! Jaime~)
I opened my eyes slowly, I looked up, and Joel was awake, reading a magazine. He looked down at me, and smiled.
"Hey, good morning."
I just smiled.
"Did you go to sleep last night Joel?"
"Yeah, but I was gona get up, but I didn't want to wake you up. So, I remembered I had a bunch of old comic books under the bed, so I started to read them."
"Oh, Cool...did the uh, power come on yet?"
"Yeah, Martin came and fixed the box outside."
"So, do you have work today?"
"Yeah, I gota get ready."
"Okay."
I sat up, and got out of bed. Joel went to the dresser, and got out his clothes. I went into the living room to change. He came out just as I slipped my shirt on.
"S-sorry.."
He stepped into the bathroom quickly. I chuckled lightly in my throat. I sat on the couch, and watched the clouds chase the sun. Joel came out with his toothbrush in his mouth and he walked around brushing his teeth. I brushed my hair, and put it up in a ponytail. After Joel was done in the bathroom, I went in and did all that fun stuff, IE, brushing teeth, going to the bathroom, washing my face, Ect, ect. I walked out of the bathroom and Joel came in with the mail.
"Bills, Bills, Junk,....., Flyer..... Oh cool, the Cosmo dance is here."
"Cosmo dance?"
"Yeah the 'dance under the stars' its this time every year when the stars are at the brightest time of the year."
"Oh.. Cool."
There was a long suspenseful pause..
"Do you want to go with me?"
He blurted out.
"I'd love to.."
He looked at me in shock.
He smiled crookedly and arched his eyebrow.
"Well, uh, lets get ready for work.."
"O okay."
I glanced at the flyer; there was last years 'Star Prince' And 'Moon Princess' it looked like a ball type event. I walked out the door, and saw a lot of people. And it looked like that this town didn't have a lot of people.... There were people getting ready for tonight, putting up decorations, tables, and the stereo.. I looked over to one of the shops and saw beautiful dresses. Joel walked into the store and went behind the counter.
"Uh, Joel?"
"Yeah?"
"Can I go to your house, I forgot something.."
"Okay...?"
"Thanks, I'll be right back."
I walked quickly out of the store, up to Joel house, and went into my bag, and got my Gill.
"525.... Okay.. good."
I got up quickly and ran out the door. I walked into the store. It wasn't really crowded. Casually I walked up and down the isles, trying to eye out the coolest dress. A lady tapped me on the shoulder.
"May I help you miss?"

".... Perfect..."
I took it off and hung it up in the closet. I went into my bag, and got my Sunglasses, and I walked towards the store again. I saw Joel outside having a cigarette break.
"What took you so long?"
"Uh, I couldn't find my glasses, so I had to take apart my whole bag.."
"oh. Okay. Um, I gota get a suit for tonight, Martin's in there, can you give him a hand?"
"Oh, sure."
"okay."
He put out the cigarette and walked to his house. I walked in the store and saw Martin: he was tending to a customer. He smiled at the lady, and looked at me in a flirty way.
"So....do you like Cosmo?"
"...Yeah, its cool."
"Did you see the stars yet?"
"......no........Not yet.."
"I could show them to you.."

"Well, um, I gota get a smoke, ill be right back."
"Wa- wai- aw come on! I don't know what to do by myself!!........ MARTIN!!"
He walked out the door.
"MARTIN!!! God dammit..."
I sat on the chair behind the counter. I turned around on the spiny chair and looked back in the storage area. I was going to get up, when the bell for service rang. I spun around, and looked at the counter, it was Joel.
"Hey, sorry I took so long...I had to go in the basement to find it."
"Oh, its okay."
"Do you have your dress ready for tonight?"
"Um, No, I didn't get one yet."
"You'd better hurry, the dance starts at 8:00.."
"That's like, four hours away."

He picked me up, and looked at me. I put my hand on his face, and I kissed him tenderly on the lips. He walked over to a bench, and sat me down. And he sat down beside me. I looked out into the night sky, and then it hit me..
*(Oh my god, what am I doing? I'm falling in love with him.. I'm not here for love; I want to find out my past...... But, he's so cute, and this means a lot to me..

"Whoa, um- Ladies and gentlemen, as the Mayor of Cosmo Canyon, I'd like to welcome the 30th year anniversary Cosmo dance 'under the stars'. Do you remember last years winners?"
He moved out of the way, and there sat a young woman about 18, with red hair, and a young man about 20, with dark brown hair. They waved and smiled to the crowd.
"Yes, a mighty fine couple.. Anyway, let us pick this year winners. Ok, the winner of the Cosmo dance 'under the stars' is...."
There was a long dramatic pause....
"Martin Dustan and Anne Yulee!"

"Okay"
I put my finger on his nose playfully, and I smiled. I walked into the bedroom and changed into my pj's. (The notorious green silky pj's) And I walked out and sat closely beside Joel. He put his arm around me and we were about to kiss, when there was a loud knock on the door.
"God dammit! Can't I get any peace!!"
He said jokingly. The knocking continued, he got up and looked at me.
"Stay..stay there..."
He smiled and opened the door.
"Hey Jo- Ooo la la, what are YOU doing?"
"Sitting with Zeal...What are YOU doing?"
He said mockingly.
"Well, Anne and I are wondering if you guys wanted to come to our place, and we could get smashed."
Joel put his hand on Martins shoulder and pushed him out of the house.
"Look Mart, I don't want anything to do with Anne anymore, I don't even want to be in the same house as her. Ok? I'm kind of busy..ok?"
"Alrighty...not my loss"
"Ok, whatever, now go have sex with her."
"Ahhhhh I wont. Haha"
"Haha"
He said mockingly. He walked backward and shut the door right in front of his face.
"Don't you think that was a bit mean?"
"Naaah, were usually mean to each other............Now...where were we?"
He smiled and kissed me on the cheek, then he made his way to my lips. I leaned backwards until he was on top of me. My hands went up and down his back, and I felt the small goose bumps on his back. I wrapped my legs around his, and we were still kissing, but more 'into' it now (~I can't think of the word!!~) And then he kissed my chin, and then my neck. He kissed my collarbone, and then he stopped. His hands slid lightly up my side, under my shirt, I took my hand and I stopped him.
"...Sorry, I'm not ready to go that far yet.."
"Oh, its okay...I understand."
We sat up, and I fixed my shirt, while he 'adjusted himself' I sighed and looked at him. He smiled back.
"It's already 12:00?"
"mm hmmm"
"I'm ready to hit the sac, wana join me?"
"Sure."
I smiled at him again and we walked to his room, I crawled in the opposite side from him, and he turned the light off. He went in his side and I snuggled beside him.
"Goodnight.."
"night..."
"I'll see ya in the morning"
"Okay, goodnight Joel"
He kissed me on the lips, and when I was comfortable, I closed my eyes and went to sleep.
(~Hah! Whaddya think about that?! That took me about 4 days to write this! B/c I'm in school, and I really cant write that deep of a story plot yet. I thought this was pretty funny in some ways...But that's just me. I also thought that Joel was very romantic. I want you to know, that Joel isn't a wuss, hes tough and yes, there is a soft spot that guys have for us girls. :-D I'm so looking forward of what might happen. I've got a pretty good idea, but im a bit burnt out now. I will post another ASAP. Thanks!! Jaime~)
