Chapter 15

Holly went inside of her apartment building...alone...finally. She had left the Fowl Manor just early this morning, finished whatever she had to do for Commander Root and now was finally at home. She went inside her bedroom which was oddly enough organized.

"Fowl," she muttered rolling her eyes.

She quickly found the remote to her stereo and played some music while she lit some candles around the room.

It was Holly Short's way of relaxing, turning off all the lights leaving the candles to light the room she searched under her bed for her notebook. She found it still bound in her green and gold ribbons which went perfectly with the black hardback cover. No, the notebook hadn't been found by Artemis Fowl. She still had her deepest secrets kept or so she had thought. Artemis had actually found and read every single one of her deepest darkest secrets.

Holly took out her pen and wrote. Wrote all what had happened ending with:

"There was once a quote called you never can judge a person by their public personality, you judge them by the inside the way they act around you. I've figured out that even in the coldest rain, Artemis can still be warm and still have a heart.... Why you ask? I experimented for myself. I hugged him, something in which I fear that I shall never do again. But maybe the dance will change that, but I doubt it....No longer will I feel such an embrace from him again. Until tomrrow's suffering light, Ja ne as the Japanese say. Or at least that's what my cousin Ryoma says."

Holly closed the book binding it back again, hiding it under her bed. She laid down on her bed, letting the scented candles and music drift her to sleep.

Artemis typed on his computer quietly. He'd usually never let himself get so deep into his typing, never, he'd never usually listen to music while he was typing either. It was something that Juliet was suspicious of. But she had realised what was happening. It wasn't the fact that Artemis was trying to change habits, going into Holly's life made him realise a couple things. Possibly he had found out about some of her deepest darkest secrets. Possibly had found depression and happiness at the same time.

"Consontrating are you not?" asked Juliet.

Artemis nodded silently.

"So what's up with the new album?" asked Juliet smirking.

"I find Moulann quite a interesting vocalist. I searched though a couple of Holly's collection of music. You should listen to her she's actually quite good," replied Artemis not even glancing at Juliet.

"So you went through Holly's stuff?" asked Juliet.

A guilty silence.

"Yes, am I not allowed to be curious?" replied Artemis unevenly.

Another smirk from Juliet.

"Artemis sweetie, there's a saying that curiousity killed the cat," she said.

"I know that. Now if don't mind I'd like to be able to finish my typing up so I can get some rest," snapped Artemis.

Juliet smiled.

"Whatever you say kid, by the way, welcome home," she said.

"Um...did you ask her?" asked Artemis, once again not even looking at Juliet.

"Yea...I did," responded Juliet.

"W-what did she say?" asked Artemis.

Juliet laughed.

"May I keep you in suspense?" she asked back.

"Juliet honestly!" exclaimed Artemis whirling around to face her.

"Wow I actually got your eyes off the computer," muttered Juliet.

"Not funny now tell me before I grab a book off the shelf and hit you with it," said Artemis.

"Ooh a book, yeah I'm scared. Artemis honestly, if I can beat the crap out of a couple semi-wrestlers I can tear a huge text book in two," pointed Juliet.

"Just tell me!" snapped Artemis.

"Impatient aren't we? Now give me a reason why I should tell you right away?" asked Juliet innocently.

"Because, I need to know! I need to know, for my reasons only!" replied Artemis.

Juliet rolled her eyes.

"Alright, alright, she said okay," she said dully.

"Really?" asked Artemis.

"Nah, she said there was no way in hell, YES she said okay! Would I LIE to you Artemis Fowl? No I don't think so!" replied Juliet sarcastically.

Artemis rolled his blue eyes shutting down his computer.

"I'm going to sleep so get out," said Artemis.

"As you wish. I'll let you dream about your little princess," said Juliet.

The door quickly shut before Artemis could grab an rather thick book of his book shelf and throw it at her.

Artemis sighed closing his eyes. There was no actual way he was going to get to sleep....he might as well try though.
