Chapter 14
Krystal's heart was beating like a hammer in the hands of an over-worked blacksmith. Arcane had told her to dress up exceptionally nice, and to meet him on the corner of State and Main in Quinton City at 7:00 sharp. She had gotten there at a quarter till, in an elegant, water-blue, velvet dress that reached her ankles. There was a slit up the sides that reached just below her knees, and it was sleeve-less, leaving her strong arms bare. There was a scarf too, that she draped around her elbows. She had curled her hair, and molded the majority of it back in a bun, with the curls wreathing themselves in and out of the bun. Her main two bangs that reached her shoulders and ran down across her face had been curled into ringlets. She had put makeup on, making her eyes stand out all the more, and her cheeks extra rosy in the cool night air. She looked beautiful, stunning even, in white, silk gloves that reached her elbows.
People were giving her some odd looks; men gave her looks of wishing, and somewhat hoping. Women granted her looks of the utmost sense of jealousy. She felt almost stupid until a black limo with tinted windows pulled up and stopped right in front of her. Arcane stepped out; dark black, over-shined shoes gleaming in the street lamplight, along with his gold cufflinks. Arcane was wearing a black tuxedo, white undershirt, a rustic red tie, and sharp looking, black shoes. His usually brown, scruffy hair was unusually strait glossy, combed back and parted strait. Krystal had to catch her breath at how handsome he looked. However, the look of apprehension on his face made Krystal realize that he was just as nervous as she was.
Arcane seemed to be speechless, with his mouth kind of slacked and gaping. Krystal realized her mouth was hanging too and quickly shut it.
"You. you look absolutely ravishing." He said, after seeming to have found his tongue.
"You. look so handsome." Krystal replied, feeling her ears beginning to burn.
Arcane held out his hand and in it was a red rose, perfectly trimmed and blossomed. Krystal accepted it and smelled it. It smelt like wondrous perfume. Arcane then held his hand out to her. She took it and he helped Krystal into the limo. After Arcane had joined her, the limo took off, as if on command. Arcane continued to gaze out the window, and they rode the whole way in silence.
The limo came to a sharp stop, and Arcane rushed out to get the door for Krystal. She stepped elegantly out of the limo, and Arcane offered her his arm rather sheepishly. She accepted it, and realized that Arcane wasn't that short. Krystal only came up to his nose.
They walked up a red carpet (or so it seemed) and a man at the door greeted them with a, "Welcome to the Bodizio's Dinner and Dance."
They walked through glass double doors into a huge room. On the floor that they were on, was a dance floor. A band was playing and an orchestra also in the left hand corner. Many couple dressed like Krystal and Arcane were dancing to the music. Half the dance floor was shadowed from a floor above it. Two staircases led the way up to where you would dine.
"After you." Arcane said, gesturing with his arm to the stairs. Krystal started up them, and chose a seat near the edge of the balcony. They were seated and a waiter came and took their orders. Krystal ordered the Alfrado, while Arcane got the Steak. Trying to think of how to start a conversation, the thing that was on her mind tumbled out.
"Do I. do I make you nervous?"
"What? Oh, erm. well."
"I'm sorry. If it helps, you give me the butterflies." Krystal had no idea why she was saying these things, things she had never told anybody else before.
"I- I do?"
"Yup. See how my ears are al red? That's how I blush. But what about me makes you nervous?"
"Well, it's moreover how you look. You're so beautiful it leaves me speechless, and the way that you acted at the dance. When those guys showed up, that grim look you had on your face, the way you acted. you were so. so strong. I could feel your strength radiating to me, giving me strength. You scared me."
Cliff hanger! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I love being evil. The reason why I ended it here was suspense of how Krystal is going to react, and what you guys think should happen. A little bit of help here and there couldn't hurt, could it? Later!
