Ellie's POV:
Just then I saw that Paulina had seen me. She smirked and Danny turned around to see who it was. Just as he caught a glimps of me, Paulina grabbed the back of his head and pulled him sharply towards herself. Time stopped. My heart stopped. And no breath escaped my lips. She was kissing him. I thought that I was going to die right then. Like as though my heart had been torn out, stomped on by a heard of cows, and then chopped up.
They broke apart, and Danny quickly turned back to me saying, "Ellie..."
But it was too late, I had already turned away and started running.
I caught up to Dash and he smiled taking my hand in his, and leading me up the path. I didn't really care where I was going. I didn't care that his sweaty hand was clenched on mine, or that we were heading deeper into the woods. My mind was too filled with thoughts of what just happened to even blink over where he was taking me.
Just as the trees were at their thickest, they all of a sudden parted and dispersed. You know, to me Dash always seemed to be the dimwitted jock...but I had to admit, he knew where to take a girl. We were standing on the edge of a cliff. Very high up I might add. But despite that it was beautiful. The stars were shinning so unbelievably bright that I thought that they might have been lightning bugs flashing around me. And of course the view was spectacular. Never before had I ever seen anything like it. Not even in my dreams. It was too real.
I gazed around at the landscape that spread out before me, and completely forgot that Dash was standing right next to me. That is until he got in my eye sight. Then my mind was rocketed back to earth and I realized who I was with, and who I wasn't. Even in this wonderful enivironment I was saddened at the thought of what had happened only minutes before. As I was thinking of this, and almost on the verge of tears again, I felt an arm slip over my shoulder.
I jumped and gasped a little, but then I realized that Dash had slowly moved closer to me while I was so caught up in my own problems. At first I thought that this would be okay, you know just standing there and breathing in the fresh air. No. He decided to go a little too much further. He moved his hand to my back and down towards my ass. That was stepping over the line. I coughed to let him know I didn't like that, and he stopped...for a while.
He grabbed my elbow and turned me to him. I was getting worried now.
"Dash stop!" I said forcibly, trying to yank my arm from his grip. It didn't have any effect on him. He just ignored my protests and pulled my face up to his own. Our lips collided roughly, and I felt my lip split when his teeth came into contact. I managed to free one arm, pull it out, and swing. A loud slap rendered the air disrupting the beautiful tranquility of it.
He was stil holding on to me, but we were both stock still. I had not noticed that I had shut my eyes, and as I opened them I saw anger in his eyes.
"You slut!" he finally roared. His grip tightened painfully, and I felt my wrist pop from the pressure.
"Dash let me go!" I cried out in pain, fear, and a little anger of my own.
"You're going to pay for that!" he yelled advancing upon me as I tried to back away fom him.
I kicked out and I managed to hit him square in the balls, and as he doubled over I tried to run. But I was going the wrong way. I hadn't once noticed that we had edged towards theoverhang of the cliff. And as I turned and took a step, I stepped on absolutely nothing. A jolt of terrible realization flashed into my mind. And the only way to describehow I felt, was when you miss a step going up or down the stairs, and your foot automatically shoots down into the icy cold. Yeah. That's it. Like a bottomless pit had just materialized to take my gut's place.
I fell. And just before my vision went dark, I thought I saw a white figure soaring through the sky towards me.
Danny's POV:
No! I thought as I saw the struggle go on between Dash and Ellie. That bastard.
Next thing I knew it felt like my heart had been consumed by my stomach. She had turned to get away from him, but she fell right off the cliff. My instincs took over just then, I didn't even think before I said aloud, "Going ghost!"
I jumped from my pearch on a rock that was only a few yards away from where she had only been a second before. I soared down the cliffside at a 90 degree angle heading straight for the rapidly falling girl. She was also vertical, her head going for a collision coarse with the ground hundreds of feet below us. Her hair was flying up behind her, reaching towards me, calling to me to help her. I also saw that just before her whole body went limp, she starred straight into my eyes.
I knew she had fainted, and I sped up because of it. She would be falling even faster now. When the ground was so close that I could almost see every single leaf that lay on the ground, I caught her. But, we were too close to the ground for me to stop us in time, so I just phased us through. And when we popped up, I saw that she was still dead asleep.But, when we touched down, and I laid her carefully on a nearby boulder, her eyes fluttered open.
She took a long bleary look at me and said, "Thanks."
"No prob." I said smiling.
"Did you...fly?" she asked timmidly getting to her feet and moving towards me.
"Yeah. You scarred me there."
"Thanks again." she said sheepishly getting off of the rock and comming over to me.
I smiled, "Hey, would you like to see something cool?"
"What? Oh no I-" but she didn't finnish her sentence, I had swept her feet out from under her, and we were off into the night.
She clutched me quite painfully for a while, but when she relaxed, I let go of everything. She screamed, but I laughed and caught her again, this time only holding on to her arms, so she was dangling below me. We soared around for a while, just laughing and so on. But then I spotted a clearing and set down.
It was full of dandilions. When her feet touched the ground, thier seeds flew all around us in the light breeze. Even our breath seemed to scatter them. It was beautiful. She turned to me and we gazed into each others eyes. But then she looked away and gave a sob.
"What's the matter?" I asked putting my hands on her shoulders from behind.
"I'm sorry, it's just...you remind me so much of this guy I know. And, we just got into a big fight...I can't do this." she mumbled with her back still to me.
"What a jerk." I said halfheartedly.
"He's really nice, so I don't understand why he would do what he did. I mean, he must have known how I felt about him right?" she said turning around. I noticed that there were tears brimming her eyes. And as soon as she blinked they came tumbling down.
"Yeah, but, maybe it was just a misunderstanding. Did you ask him?"
"No..."
I took a breath. Seeing her like this was killing me. I couldn't take it any longer! I had to tell her. She had walked away, kicking at the dandilions as she went.
"Maybe he'd like to tell you that he was sorry."
"That would be nice, but-"she started saying, but as she turned back, she saw that I had been engulfed in a white light.
I transformed back into my black-haired, blue-eyed self and went right up to her, saying, "Ellie...I'm sorry. What happened with Paulina was a big misunderstanding. Don't get me wrong, I have always dreamed of that happening, but a few days ago I realized that I want it from the one person I care the most about."
I was standing in front of her, and now the tears were pouring down her cheeks, and to the ground below. Even when she was crying she still looked beautiful. Dandilion seeds had stuck in her hair, and as I was standing in front of her I brushed them away, stroking the side of her face with my thumb.
"I love you. And I have known that ever since I crashed into you with all of my boxes in the office. I love you."
As I finnished my speech, I knew my words were true. And just as they had done when I first saw her, her eyes captured me. They hipnotised me, drawing me into them. I began to lean in involuntarily. But, I had no objections. And ammazingly, she did the same.
Just as our lips were only centimeters apart she whispered, "I love you too."
We kissed. I wont say that I had no idea what time it was, or wether we had kissed for years. But I will say, that I had rockets exploding deep within me. The most wonderful feeling shot through me, like I was flying. And when we drew apart for breath, I was in a daze, but smiling.
"Oh Danny! I'm sorry! I should have never thought that you had done that with Paulina on purpose. I'm so, so sorry!" she cried rushing into me and burrying her face in my chest.
"It's alright. I don't care anymore. I'm with you, and that's all that counts."
Fresh tears welled up and spilled onto her cheeks, she gave a great sob and walked into me. Her head rested itself against my chest, and my head fit perfectly on top of hers. We stood for a few minutes, just enjoying each others company. I finally pulled away, giving her an apollogetic look.
"We should head back." I whispered, taking a strand of her hair to be twirled in between my fingers.
She knodded and I winked at her as I transformed. She looked at me with her mouth wide open, but she didn't even have a chance to recover, forI swept her up in my arms and flew offtowards the party again.
