Gerry ISU Chick04- My party wentswimmingly, but I seem to be having a slight problem. I have told everyone of my readers about my 'teacher' so as you well know I am in love with him. Well, I told my friend about it and she is trying to get him to ask me out on a date. The problem is that I've been seeing someone else, and I love him alot too! I like my teacher, but I don't think it would work out, however I wish it could, but I'm not willing to dump my other relationship to persue something that wouldn't ever happen, but then again, I will always wonder what would have happened on that date if I tell him no. HELP I am sooooooooooooo confused right now!
And I still find time to update! Y'all should love me!
Chapter 16- Meeting Aminta and Becoming Don Juan
Dominique arrived early to his lessons and was surprised to find Isabelle sitting on the piano bench in the practice room. She didn't hear him enter, as she was lightly playing a familiar tune on the keys. She sang along with a beautiful, and well trained voice.
"Think of me…" She began. "Think of me fondly when we've said goodbye. Remember me… once in a while please promise me you'll try."
She breathed, and Dominique stared, mesmerized. "When you find that once again you long to take your heart back and be free, if you ever find a moment spare a thought for me."
She played the interlude perfectly and began again, "We never said our love was ever green, or as unchanging as the sea, but if you can still remember, stop and think of me…"
She smiled, and Dominique smiled with her. "Think of all the things we've shared and seen… Don't think about the way things might have been…"
She breathed again. "Think of me, think of me waking, silent and resigned. Imagine me, trying too hard to put you from my mind. Recall those days, look back on all those times, think of the things we'll never do" She stopped smiling and looked concentrated. "There will never be a day when I won't think of you!"
There was another piano solo, which she played perfectly. "We never said our love was evergreen, or as unchanging as the sea-" she was smiling again, which caused Dominique to smile as well. "But please promise me, that sometimes you will think…" She vocalized the next part without flaw as well. "O-o-of me!"
Dominique clapped, and she turned. "Brava, mademoiselle." He said, smiling and she blushed.
Remembering herself, she stood. "Who, may I ask, are you?"
"I am Don Juan." He said, bowing. "Dominique Delacour." He grabbed her hand and gently kissed it. "At your service." He was surprised at how charming and suave he sounded.
She pulled her hand away from him. "Thank you, sir." She said, and for propriety added, "I am Isabelle Chagny."
He smiled, "Ahh." He said. "You are Aminta!"
She smiled and nodded. Perhaps working with him wouldn't be so bad. He was fairly good looking, and very charming, but he was the one singing in the office wasn't he? She needed to know.
"Well, you've heard me, I think it only fair that you give me a little private performance." She said, smiling mischievously.
"Oh, but mademoiselle, that would be improper, as we have just met and I hardly know your name." He knew this was a lie, but she smiled anyway.
"But wasn't it improper for you to hide in the shadows and listen to me without my consent?" She had him trapped, and he loved it.
"You seem to have a point, mademoiselle, and so I will sing for you, if you still so wish." He said.
She smiled. "I do wish still." The propriety was killing her. "Would you like me to play for you?"
"No, I think I can strum something out myself." He said, sitting. He had this one memorized, even though he had just written it the night before. He began.
