Romeo and Juliet

Chapter 4

"Excuse me miss, I was just noticing that you were all alone." He said.

"Yes. I am quite alone, just looking at the stars." I smiled.

"My name is Heero." He stated.

"My name is-" I was cut off.

"I already know...Lita, Princess of Earth. You are very beautiful, I noticed you from the other side of the room. I was also wondering. Would you like to dance?" Heero asked.

I held out my hand to his," Yes, I would love to."

            He clasped my hand and walked me to the dance floor. The music started playing, and I was taken away into the music's world. Everything was perfect, including the people around us. But I didn't see them. I was alone with him, dancing in a state of this world that was so captivating and wondrous. It was as if he were my guide to anything I could have ever dreamed of. He pulled me close, and I could feel his beating heart against mine.

            The music ended, and we stopped our dancing among the stars. But, our meeting wasn't over. He pulled me to the place where we met, on our first floor balcony, and we searched for our star. He turned towards me, after for what seemed to be forever. He pulled my chin towards his, and we were connected by a kiss. That sweet feeling that came over me, as I realized who's kiss that was. It was him.......that man in my dreams that held me close to his side. I pulled away from the kiss.

"Who are you really?" I asked.

"I am everything that is all of you. I am the one who admires your heart, and hopes to keep you warm in the unruly hours of the night. I am the one who loathes the very person that keeps your freedom to marry who you want...that man."  Heero explained.

            I looked at him, such beauty. Brown hair that spiked up, wild in all its own wonder. Blue eyes that could hold anyone's gaze, tall like me, but muscular. Oh, how I wish that this night would never end. In his arms is where I belong. But I never saw true beauty until this night. And I never dared saw love, until I loved him. Be still my beating heart, and show that I can hold myself up, even though I need him as if he were crutches.

            We kissed again, more passionately this time, feeling each other in one another. Whirling thoughts just exploding through my head, and kept my heart pounding. I knew we might get caught at any moment, so I pulled away, even though it was so hard. I had to tell him that I was betrothed, but somehow there was a look in his eyes that said he already knew.

"Listen, I am betrothed." I started.

"Sshh. I know, but I want to enjoy this moment before it ends and we must part." Heero said.

"We might be seen, then it is treason." I stated.

"I'm sure of our price, but I'm not sure of how I could ever find you again" Heero pulled me close again.

"I wish that through all the heavens and all the stars, we shall fly to each other and kiss." I wished.

"I shall be with you even when we part tonight. Watch for the shooting star, and I shall be riding it." Heero whispered.

            We kissed yet again, then we were torn apart by the crowd. I ran around and around looking for him, but I never found him. He seem to have disappeared, like a midnight ghost returning to their resting place. I started to cry as I realized he was gone, left without a good-bye. The tears rolled down my cheeks as I ran up the stairs and to my room. I threw myself onto the bed, and cried into the pillows. After a few minutes of endless tears, I looked out my balcony window. I got up and walked out to it, still crying over my love that was probably long gone.....
