I have to admit that I'm having trouble deciding what to do next. Suffering from a little bit of writers block, so sorry if this is not as interesting as the others. I know the ending I just need to fill in the blanks and I don't want it to be too obvious.. a little mystery is always intriguing.. Right??...lol
And also before I start I wanted to thank my reviewers. You all have given me inspiration to keep writing on writing this story!! lol I hope you enjoy this next chapter...
Chapter 3: Rose Jardin
Claira watched the ball of light fly into her open window. She watched carefully as it circled her head and then landed gracefully beside her. Slowly the light died down revealing a womanly shape dressed in a tiny pink frock. Her hair was a brilliant shade of red cascading freely down her back.
'Hello my name is Rose, Rose Jardin.' She stated proudly nodding her head in an elaborate attempt to impress.
Claira sat dumbfounded. Could this really be happening? A real live fairy sitting down beside her. No, surely it's not possible.
'I'm sorry, It's just... I never knew fairies were real. I've always liked them. Admired them really..but'
Claira found herself speechless. Completely flabbergasted by the six-inch fairy beside her.
'Your not from around here are you?' Rose asked biting her lip.
'No'
'I could tell. Your very jumpy.'
'Well you would be too. I mean if you weren't a fairy yourself.'
'Yes I guess I might be. Or, maybe I wouldn't be. Most likely I wouldn't be. I tend to be rather calm in unusual situations.'
These two sentences told Claira that this particular fairy was very cocky.
'Well never-mind then. I'm suddenly feeling a lot less interested. I'm Claira Abbingdale.'
'Oh hello Claira.' Rose replied dragging her name out much longer than necessary.
Rose turned her nose up walking around. She surveyed the bed, along with every other piece of furniture in the room.
'This will do I suppose.' Rose added sitting down where she was.
'What do you mean this will do?'
'I mean this will be a suitable place for me to stay.'
'I'm sorry, you can't stay. This isn't even my house.'
Thats when the little fairy began to weep. She covered her face in her tiny hands. A soft blue glow surrounding her and barely audible sniffles muffled by her fingers.
'What's the matter?'
'Its nothing. I, I, I just well I can't go back. I just can't' She stuttered.
'Where?'
'Home, I can't go back home.'
Her pained voice caused sympathy to grow in Claira's heart. She picked up the small creature bringing her closer to her face. She was now eye to eye with her.
'You can stay here. I suppose it will be all right. I would just have to talk it over with Will.'
'No, no, no dont do that' Rose snapped glaring up at Claira.
Claira thought this was a bit weird but wrote it off as fear of being rejected.
'Alright, You may stay. But only for a short while until your problems are solved.'
Rose now glowing a soft yellow smiled happily at this agreement.
'Thank-you Claira, I'll leave now. I'll return at night fall, So as not to bother you.'
And with that she flew away. Claira didn't feel complete peace about this arrangement. Something about the fairies short temper and harsh words set her conscience on caution. But she couldn't very well throw her out with no where to go.
-------------
William walked down the stairs still feeling the warmth of Claira's lips on his. He felt like a child. It wasn't a real kiss, or at least not to her. She was asleep and if she ever found out about this kiss and how it made him feel. Well let's just say he wouldn't be able to look her in the eyes again.
He was wrapped up in these thoughts when he ran into Jonathan. He was dressed in a fine black suit carrying with him a rather large book.
'What is that?' William asked grabbing at the book.
Jonathan snatched it back. 'A book, I think you might have heard of them. Though these are for reading not coloring'
'Oh the clever, yet witty remark. Famously done John.'
'I thought you'd like that' He said sarcastically.
'Where are you going?' William asked noticing his brother's attire.
'To put this in my room, and then down to dinner.'
William nodded his head skeptically. He studied him a bit longer before walking down the stairs the rest of the way.
Jonathan started up the stairs. He stopped in front of Claira's room raising his hand to the doorknob. He bit his lip and let out a low growl. He shook his head out of frustration. He turned and walked to his room clutching the book tighter in his fingers. He walked in his room slamming the door behind him.

READ THIS: I know this chapter was boring and didn't really seem to have a purpose. But really I wanted to get the introduction of Rose a.k.a the fairy out of the way , also I wanted you to be confused about Jonathan. Did it work?? lol well be confused... I'll most likely be working on a chapter tonight and then posting it in the morning. I wish I could get past this block because I am totally frozen but I will prevail!! lol Im just kidding.. Thanks for reviewing -pink-sneakers85
