A Strange Letter
"May I escort you to your room?" Endymion asked, completely calm once again.
"Of course"
Endymion took me upstairs, walked into my rom and shut the door quietly. Holding me tight, we embraced, and I felt his lips touch mine.
"Nice to meet you," he said as he left. I curtsied (boy did that kill my back though)
A few minutes after he was gone, I noticed a small slip of paper on my desk. It read:
Meet me in the north tower at midnight tomorrow.
I have something to show you.
I guess you could say I was excited. The whole next day I skipped my "undeniable duties" and sat in the rose garden. My mother came out around noonish to see what was wrong.
"Serenity." she said, "you have shirked your duties all morning. What in the heavens is wrong?"
"Mother." I went to say.
She bent down and touched my hair softly.
"I just don't know. That young man I met yesterday."
"Is there something you wish to tell me, darling?"
"No." I lied.
Mother sighed, then went back inside the west wing. I just kept staring into the rose heads. I couldn't believe how intrusive the Queen could be into my life sometimes. I wish she would just let me leave, take an adventure into unknown space. But the whole galaxy is at peace, so I probably wouldn't find anything fun to do anyway. As I daydreamed, I noticed a red rose in the flat of white. It sparkled lightly in the sunshine, and I bent down to pick it up. It was a single red rose, a small slip of paper tied to the stem.
Hello Selene. This rose is for you.
See you this evening, and please be careful before then.
Reading the last few sentences, I quickly walked back inside to do my chores.
