Chapter 2: Recognizing her
The ears of the handsome prince perked up. He had heard someone with a beautiful voice singing.
Maybe it is my love, he said to himself, with a hopeful look in his ebony eyes. He followed the beautiful and enchanting voice as he climbed up a boulder. There...sitting there was a stunning mermaid with a shiny white tail. She did not seemed to know that he was here as he watched her, intently, feeling a bloom of love in his heart for her. And she seemed awfully familiar to him.
But...where have I seen her?
My mauve eyes widened in surprise as I stopped singing.
Someone was watching me...I turned around and my eyes landed on him...
Feeling totally shy, I leapt back into the welcoming arms of the sea.
Gasped in total shock when I watched him from a far distance.
He seems familiar but where have I seen him...Black hair...blue eyes...fair skin...
I sighed and shook my head, my dripping, wet light auburn hair sticking to my already soaked face as I sank into the water.
Sirius Black suddenly realized that she was his beloved.
How do I tell her...?
A confused look was plastered on his face.
Just then, a plan hit him like a bag of bricks.
It's so simple, right? I'll hold a party and then invite her!
He felt a smile replacing the frown on his lips.
However, then, his smile faltered just a little.
But how do I invite her...?
The last rays of the sun were consumed by the night as I rose up from the water. I sat on the warm white sand and breathed in large amount of the pine sweet air. A gust of wind was billowing around me, playing with my long hair. I closed my eyes and breathed softly.
As I opened them, a glass bottle with a scroll of parchment together with a long stemmed rose caught my eye. I reached out for them.
With my slender fingers, I managed to get the parchment out and unrolled it.
Dearest Princess Regina,
You're genially invited to the preeminent ball ever known in the wizarding world. Please come, as I would like to see you in person. Tomorrow night at eight at the castle.
Yours genuinely
Prince Sirius Black.
A smile touched my lips as I fingered the rose, affectionately.
I'll come...unless, the Enchanter's back... To create more havoc...So sorry that this chapter is damn short but...I really got to go. I promise that the next chapter will be a much longer one.
