Mia-
Princess Lessons were awful, Grandmere is so annoying, but at least they are over. Now I am waiting for Lilly to call me back, I wanted to do something today, so I am waiting for her to come up with something crazy.
"Mia, phone!" I hear my mom yell, I immediately grab my phone.
"Thanks mom, hello?" I ask, although I know it is Lilly. Have you ever noticed that whenever someone calls, even if you know who it is, you still say hello questioningly. Well I have, I guess I really do have no life to be thinking about these things.
"Yeah, you can come on over if you want, we can hang out," she says, I am jumping for joy inside right now!
"Alright I will have Lars drop me off as soon as possible," and I get up to slip on shoes and out the door I go. Maybe Lars didn't need to come along on this one. I call him anyway, and he says he will follow me from a distance. I walked to the Moscovitzes' apartment, I know its crazy, but it really cleared my head about my dreams and gave me some chance to think about Michael, it just took like 30 minutes is all. Americans are overweight, so I am now preventing that for myself because I did eat a lot of Chinese the other day.
"Hey Mia," Michael says when he answers the door. "What are you doing here?"
"Lilly asked me to come over,"
"Oh, well she left a little while ago with Boris, but she said something about being right back," he said and motioned for me to come in.
"Yeah, she mentioned something about picking up snacks at the store, I just figured she would be back by now, especially since I walked here," I said and Michael looked at me like I was crazy.
"So are you thirsty then Thermopolis?"
"Definitely, I think I need a Michael soda," I say and grin slyly at him, he just chuckles.
"Coming right up," he moves towards the kitchen and I follow him.
"Alright, I am finally going to learn the secret recipe," he looks at me and smiles.
"Yeah yeah, but you can't tell anyone."
He walks towards the refrigerator and pulls out strawberry cranberry juice, orange juice, and ginger ale. This is honestly the weirdest looking drink ever, at first when he asked me to try it I looked at him like he was crazy, lets just say I was intimidated by the color. Anyway, it happens to be an awesome drink that I have now named The Michael.
"Thanks," he hands me the glass of his concoction and I gulp it down, he kind of just looks at me because I haven't stopped to take a breath yet.
"Thirsty?" he asks.
"Nope," I say and I let out a huge belch leaving Michael in shock and me just cracking up.
"Nice Thermopolis," he says joining in my laughter now.
"I'M HOME!" Lilly yells and I see her, Boris, and Tina following.
"Hey guys," I say and wave at them. Michael slowly leaves the room and I see him look back at me before he goes sending a shiver all down my spine. "Loud enough Lilly?"
"Yes, I do believe so, I am sorry I had to leave you with my brother Mia, but you took forever to get here," she said looking at me questioningly.
"I walked, it isn't that far, and I made it longer because I was just dawdling," I say and they still all look at me like I am crazy.
"Whatever Mia, anyway, I wanted us all to have a movie night, so I bought popcorn and candy, key factors to a good time," she says and motions towards the bag.
"Alright!" I love sarcasm.
"Ha-ha Mia," Lilly is crinkling her face up now, it is the funniest thing ever, and I wish I had a camera.
Tina walks over to me and whispers in my ear, "We can invite Michael," she says and a smirk appears on her face.
"Secrets don't make friends!" Lilly yells.
"Of course they do," Tina says. "Don't worry so much Lilly you already know about it."
"Okay..." Lilly's voice just trailed off after that.
Tina and I walk to the couch and sit, Boris sits in a chair though. Lilly is looking through her movie cabinet and finally finds a few movies and then puts in Office Space, one of the funniest movies of all time. If you have not seen this movie, then you have not truly lived.
Lilly goes to sit on Boris' lap which makes Tina and I cringe, but then we just laugh it off. After the beginning of the movie Michael comes and sits down on the floor in front of me.
"I love this movie!" he excitedly says.
He looks up at me and then Tina just laughs.
"Can I sit here?" Michael asks looking at me and Tina now.
"Of course, it is your house," Tina says and stares at him dreamily, she better not be falling for my Michael Moscovitz, well he isn't technically mine, but she knows how I feel about him. I glance at her for a moment.
"Thanks," he says smiling at us and then turns back to the movie.
"I just think he is hot Mia, I mean he is, just look at him," she whispers and glances toward the back of his head.
The sun is setting and the movie is nearing the end, and I think it is possibly one of my favorite movies. Michael is leaning back on the couch his head near my right knee and his hand on my foot, slowly caressing it. He must like feet...
"Mia, I am going to go use the potty I will be right back," Tina says to me and Lilly is too wrapped up in joking with Boris to notice and well I am personally too wrapped up in Michael touching my foot that it takes me a minute to figure out what she said.
The movie ends and Lilly and Boris leave for ten minutes to her bedroom. Honestly it really creeps me out to think about the possibilities of what they are doing.
"I am sorry my sister is so rude, like we don't now she is fooling around with Boris," Michael says, and rolls his eyes.
"It's okay," Tina says. Smiling brightly at Michael, and suddenly I think he looks uncomfortable and he stops massaging my foot and gets up.
"Well, I am going to go shower ladies, I will see you later," he stands up and heads down the hall. I am now day dreaming about Michael showering, this is good mental health for a teenage girl right?
"Mia wake up!" Tina yells waving a hand in front of my face. She seems frustrated like she has been asking me something repeatedly.
"What? I'm sorry."
"When Michael gets out ask him to watch the next movie with us," she says, her eyes gleaming.
"It is not like he would want to..."
"He would if you asked him Mia, come on I know he likes you, I mean he was just massaging your foot, he has never done that to me before," I start to blush, what if he does? Maybe he was just being nice, I really need to stop thinking so much.
"That is just wishful thinking," I say.
"Oh your still stuck on Josh right? He is after all the perfect guy, smart, cute, funny, popular..." her eyes are on the ceiling as she thinks of Josh.
I start thinking of my dream again, that sounds like the perfect prince, even though he is a jerk, but I can see his face being there, but somehow it just doesn't feel right.
"He couldn't be my prince," I mumble out loud.
"What?" Tina asks looking at me like I am insane, maybe I am.
"Nothing don't worry about it, it is just I keep having this weird dream."
"Well what happens, you can't stop there," she says, looking slightly angry.
"There is this prince I am in love with, but for some reason I can never see his face, anyway he leaves me, I guess he is going off to war or something, and I give him my necklace," Tina glances down at my necklace and then looks up at me.
"Is that it? That is the whole dream? He doesn't kiss you good bye or anything?"
"Well he does, but when he leave the palace catches on fire and a wicked looking lady comes out of the fire and is trying to say something to me, but that is about it."
"Wow, you have intense dreams Mia," she says looking amazed.
"I guess, it is no big deal, I just wonder if I even know the prince, because I am thinking that is like a past life, I know I didn't think I believed in that stuff, but I always have this dream."
Tina looks at me and then says, "I read a book about this once, and in the end everything worked out."
That is a relief I guess, maybe I am just being stupid. I don't know I hope Michael gets out of the shower soon so I can ask him to watch Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory with us. Tina and I picked it out after our conversation of what I now call "The Dream".
"Finally, you guys are done," Tina laughs as Lilly and Boris come out of her room.
"Ha-ha, we didn't do anything anyway, just some kissing, so no need to worry," Lilly says as Boris begins to blush.
"That is a relief, Tina and I picked out Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory while you were gone. I hate the Charlie kid, but for some reason I still love this movie," I say going on about it.
"There he is, all fresh and clean!" Tina whispers to me and I look over and see Michael heading towards his room. She shoves me so I get up. "Go ask him!"
"I will be right back," I tell Lilly, and head down the hall, she rolls her eyes, does she know what I am doing? What if she knows I like Michael? That would be awful.
I hesitate before I knock on Michael's door; I really need to be more assertive. I am just taking time to gain my courage, that's all; there is nothing wrong with that, so stop thinking so much Mia, you can do it.
"Michael?" I say tentatively, I hope he can here me. Suddenly I hear feet and the unlocking of the door. He opens it and looks flushed; I wonder what he was doing... "Hey Thermopolis, umm, what's up?"
"You wanna watch Willy Wonka with us? Come on it will be fun," I say getting a happy tone in my voice.
"Okay," he says smiling. "I will be out in a minute."
"Alright," I walk off to the couch to find that Tina has moved to the love seat and is lying down.
"Thanks for the couch Tina," I love the couch at the Moscovitzes' it is so comfy.
"Anytime," she says winking.
Michael walks out and sits down by me, then leans back and puts his feet on the coffee table and I just lean on the arm rest, my feet also on the coffee table. The movie begins and I feel myself leaning closer to Michael. I am really craving his touch right now. That is so pathetic I know, but it is how I feel. I know he knows I keep looking at him, but I can't help it, he is so cute.
"Mia, are you comfortable?" he asks me, he's always thinking of others.
"I guess..."
"Come here," he says and reaches out for me pulling me close to him. I rest my head on his shoulder and his arm is around my back. I can feel his heart beating fast and I begin to feel hot.
He seems so nervous as he looks down at me. "Better?" he asks coolly, although I know inside his heart is beating like crazy, and I smile how cute is that? I am so shocked I make him feel that way that I just nod. He smiles his beautiful smile and turns back to the movie. What if this is just him being nice? He probably does this to all the girls, but then why was his heart beating so fast? I am so confused, I really just need to enjoy the moment without over analyzing it. He smells so good.
The movie ends all too soon and I am feeling sleepy. It must be from that walk over here because it is only 9:30. Michael gets up and I lay down where he was, it's still warm, it sounds creepy that I enjoy even his heat because what if he farted?
"Thanks for the invite Thermopolis, but I am heading off to my room, I have a few things I need to do," Michael says and then walks off down the hall.
I lay there on the couch, Tina is asleep and Lilly and Boris are sweet talking into each others ears, it really makes me want to gag, but oh well. I really wonder what Michael is doing, but I guess I will just have to dream about it, I don't want to bother him or anything. I am too tired to think, talk to myself more later.
The woman walks out of the blaze and as soon as it appeared it was out again.
"Amelia, this is the devastation I can cause to your precious world if you don't give me what I want. Your prince is mine! He is in my heart, silly girl you think you can take him from me, ahahahaha," he laugh sends chills down my spine. "I have no idea what he sees in you, you are just a pathetic little girl," the woman in black says.
"I love him and he loves me, you can't have him, you never had him, love is a special thing between two people that you will never understand!" I shout at her, my eyes brimming with tears, I don't know if is out of fear or love.
"Frightened little girl, you can do nothing to stop me, he will be mine, or else you and your world will suffer the consequences," she says smirking at me. I feel myself fall to the ground, my knees to weak to stand out of anger.
"You can't do anything to devastate our love, who do you think you are? We will love each other for all of eternity, even if I do give him up to you, his heart will never belong to you," I say, surprised at my own will, I feel as though I would do anything for this love me and my prince share.
"Ha that is what you think!" the vile woman yells and then turns her hand towards the glass windows of the palace and a bolt comes from her hand shattering the windows, sending shards of glass in every direction.
"You think you can stop me princess?" she says and then begins to laugh menacingly. She raises her hand to me and a bolt shoots out of her hand...
I am startled but awake, at least everyone is asleep. I guess Boris went home sometime because Lilly is asleep on the floor with out him. This dream is really weird now and kind of frightening, it is so sci-fi; it reminds me of Kenny and all the weird stuff he is into. I am so glad we are not dating anymore, who cares that Lilly had to break up with him for me, man I am pathetic. aWait a minute, what if my prince is Kenny? I would kill myself if it was, but things could work that way as well as it could if it were Josh. I mean my dad really likes him... but I could never love Kenny that much, it can't be him can it?A/n- R and R because I think this story might be heading in the wrong direction. Thanks!
