Incognito
The week flew by very quickly and before Tea realized it, Saturday night had arrived. At first she honestly didn't really want to go to the party, but as the days passed this began to change. The main thing that changed her mind was the fact that Alex was also being forced to go.
"Well at least I'll have one person to talk to" said Tea as she pulled her hair into an updo in order to show off the earrings she planned to wear "So it might not be so bad"
After she finished styling her hair, Tea went over to the closet and pulled her dress out. Despite Constantina's apparent lack of sanity, her dress left Tea completely speechless. The dress was made of a very beautiful material that containted varous shades it blue. It was almost like looking at the ocean. It was also full length, close fitting, and it had a strap that went over one of her shoulders. Once Tea got it on she realized that the material at the bottom of the dress seemed to extend. It almost looked like a mermaid's tail...
"I still can't believe how beautiful the color of this dress is" thought Tea as she picked up the small blue clutch she was going to be taking "Well I'd better hurry before I get left behind"
"Hey are ya ready mate?" shouted a tuxedo clad Varon as he knocked on Amelda's bedroom door "We've gotta go down to the curb and wait for Tea!"
"I'm not going" replied Amelda somewhere from inside of his room "But you'd better get going or else you'll be late"
"WHAT?" shouted Varon in disbelief at what he was wearing as he immediately charged into his bedroom "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE NOT GOING?"
Amelda was just laying there on the bed with the remote in his hand while wearing the grey t-shirt and black sweatpants slept in. He didn't even bother to look at Varon and seemed more preoccupied with what was on tv. Varon was pretty pissed off though so he immediately went over and snatched the remote from his hand. It was only then that Amelda turned to look at him with a very annoyed look on his face.
"Why the Hell aren't you dressed?" shouted Varon who was tempted to throw the remote control across the room "WHY?"
"Because I don't have any intention of going" stated Amelda as he quickly sat up and snatched the remote from Varon's hand "Now go away and leave me alone"
"Wait...I know what is about" said Varon who was extremely frustrated with him at that moment "This is because Tea's going with us right?"
"What?" shouted Amelda as he jumped up so suddenly that he nearly fell off the side of the bed "What are you talking about?"
"You've been acting weird since I told you that she'd be coming with us" said Varon who was pretty sure this was the reason judging by Amelda's reaction when he mentioned Tea "Just how much do you hate her mate?"
"I don't hate her" muttered Amelda as he sank back into his pillow and wished that Varon would just leave him alone "Besides this isn't about her"
Amelda knew very well he was lying and that Varon was right...well half right. When Varon told him that Tea was going to the party with them, he was speechless. With the way he had been feeling recently, the last thing he wanted to do was face her. Just the thought of having her in the same car was too much for him. What if he wasn't able to control himself? What if he said or did something to make her suspect how he felt? If he truly were to do such a thing, Varon would never let him hear the end of it. To make matters worse he'd probably blab it all over town. Besides...it's not like I really wanted to go
"So while Raphael and I are forced to go to that horrible party" shouted Varon who was about ready to strangle Amelda at that point "You plan to stay here and watch tv?"
"It's my life so I'll do what I want" said Amelda as he suddenly stood up and stared down at Varon in hopes of intimidating him and getting him to leave "Now leave me alone you idiot!"
Varon frowned at him and looked away for a moment and out the window. It was only then that he noticed a woman wearing a blue dress stranding in front of the black metal bench. Even though she wasn't facing him, he knew it was Tea since that's where he agreed to meet her. He was still furious at Amelda, but he would deal with him later. After all it would be rude to keep Tea waiting...
"You always say I'm an idiot" said Varon as he suppressed his anger as best as he could while making his way to the door "But at least I'm not a bastard like you"
With that Varon slammed the door shut and a few seconds later he slammed the front door as well. Amelda sighed since he knew that Varon was really angry at him. For once he didn't blame him since he had behaved like a selfish jerk. He then stood up and looked out the window since he had a feeling Tea was out there. The moment he saw her, he was left completely speechless. She looked absolutely stunning in the beautiful blue dress she was wearing. So looked so beautiful in fact that he felt that the dress didn't do her justice. When Amelda finally came to his senses, he found himself digging through the closet in search of his tuxedo. I'd be an idiot if I stayed here...
"Hey Tea" said Varon as he pulled up to the curb in front of where Tea was and unlocked the passenger door "You look real nice right now"
"Thank you" smiled Tea as she opened the door, got into the SUV, and noticed that they were alone "So where's your friend?"
"He's not coming" said Varon who really didn't want to be reminded of Amelda at that moment "He said he didn't feel like going"
"And I'm pretty sure it's because I was coming along" thought Tea since it was pretty obvious to her that Amelda didn't really like her at all "Oh...well that's too bad"
Varon then pulled back out onto the street and they were on their way. A few minutes after they had left, Amelda emerged from his bathroom. He was now nicely dressed, his hair was neatly styled, and he looked absolutely perfect. Now all he had to figure out was how to get to the party. He didn't really feel much like walking or taking a cab, but there was one other option. Without further hesitation he went over to his dresser, picked up the keys to his motorcycle, and immediately ran down to the garage.
Half An Hour Later
"Thank you so much for coming out here tonight!" exclaimed Constantina as she stood at the main entrance to the party in order to greet all of her guests "Now please enjoy yourselves dahlings!"
All of the people present applauded her and a few weirdos/fans of hers even bowed in her prescence. Raphael was standing close to her but he was only doing so to make sure nothing got out of hand. Nobody seemed to notice him though since all of their eyes were on Constantina's dress. It was a black form fitting dress with a wreath of black feathers of the bottom and she wore a matching hat. It had to be the most hideous thing ever, but nobody had the nerve to say anything. Nobody but Joey Wheeler that is...
"What's with dat dress?" asked a tuxedo clad Joey as he, Mai, and Serenity finally reached Constantina in order to greet her "Did ya pluck an ostrich ta make it?"
"Joey!" exclaimed Mai (who was wearing a sequined sleeveless royal purple cocktail dress) as she jabbed Joey in the ribs "Do you realize who you're talking to?"
"Sorry about that.." said Serenity(who was wearing a full length lavender ballgown) as she looked straight at Constantina "My brother loves to joke around"
"Oh aren't you a cute one?" laughed Constantina as she reached out and pinched Joey's cheek like crazy "I love someone with a sense of humor!"
Once Constantina let go, Joey quickly scurried off and Mai went after him. Serenity decided to go off on her own since she knew they had alot of catching up to do. When Mai caught up to Joey she looked pretty mad. They had only been there a few minutes and he had already managed to insult the hostess. Then again the hostess didn't really seem that upset about it. Either way it was embarassing and she was about scold him when he suddenly gave her a grin. It was a rather dopey/boyish grin that seemed to say "Sorry about dat Mai...but dat dress is pretty stupid".
"Oh...how can I stay mad at you?" said Mai as her violet eyes twinkled and she suddenly threw her arms around Joey "You were just being yourself"
"Dat's the only guy I eva am!" laughed Joey as he continued grinning and looked at her with his warm brown eyes "So...uh...what now?"
"Well we could just sit and talk" said Mai as her violet eyes seemed to twinkle more than usual for some reason as she looked him "How does that sound?"
"Dat sounds good!" said Joey with an even bigger grin since this was what he had been looking forward to all week "Lets go find a spot!"
Joey then put out his hand which Mai immediately took. They then smiled at each other and walked off together holding hands. This was absolutely a perfect moment and they both felt happier than they had in years. Alas the same couldn't be said for the poor young brunette who had just encountered the scene. When Varon realized that Mai was there with Joey, he was shocked. When he first spotted them, he believed that maybe they were only there as friends. Then again the look of happiness on Mai's face began to make him wonder. The moment they happily walked off holding hands, he realized the truth...
"I've seen enough..." thought Varon who felt as if though Mai had torn his heart from his chest and stomped on it "I'll never be good enough for her"
Varon had never felt more worthless and unloved as he did that moment. He immediately spun around, pushed through the crowd, and made his way out of the building. I'm nothing...I'm nothing at all!
"This party is so boring without Mokuba" thought Serenity who was just sitting all by herself staring up at a stage/runway "I can only imagine all the jokes he'd be making right now"
Since the party was to honor Constantina's newest fashions, there were some models walking up a runway the entire time. They were wearing all sorts of dresses ranging from cute and normal looking to downright hideous and bizarre. The fact that the models just kept parading around the entire time didn't make much sense to Serenity. After all it's not like people were really looking at them. Most of the people were too busy talking, eating, or drinking champagne to notice them at all. Only a few weirdos, loners, and extremely bored people(like Serenity) were actually sitting down to watch them. Serenity was so busy staring at them that she didn't really pay much attention to a man who come over and sat beside her.
"This whole thing is a waste of time isn't it?" spoke the man in a disgusted tone of voice as he looked up at the runway "Who in their right mind would buy such ugly things?"
"Well they're not all bad" said Serenity whose gaze was now fixed on a model wearing a dress made of a material with various pink shades "Take that one for example"
"Hmph you would like that one" said the man as his lips curled into a slightly evil smile as he spoke "Wouldn't you Wheeler?"
"Huh?" said Serenity who immediately turned her head when she realized that this man had just called her by her last name "Kaiba?"
Serenity couldn't believe her eyes at all. The man who had been sitting beside her was none other than Seto Kaiba. He was wearing a black tuxedo which made him look even more handsome than usual. Suddenly Serenity remembered that Mokuba had told her that Seto was supposed to be attending a party on Saturday. Of course when he said this she imagined some sort of party with lots of business men...but a fashion party? The whole idea of Seto Kaiba actually sitting there and watching a fashion show was pretty funny. Then again so was the idea of her brother Joey being there as well...
"So what are you doing here Wheeler?" asked Seto as he glanced over at the pretty auburn haired girl who looked extremely pretty that evening "Did you sneak in or something?"
"No.." said Serenity who suddenly remembered that like Kaiba, most of the crowd present were actually pretty rich "Actually I'm here with somebody"
"With your boyfriend Taylor?" asked Seto who remembered how the two young men would fight for Serenity's affection "Or your boyfriend Devlin?"
"They're not my boyfriends" said Serenity who involuntarily began to blush since she couldn't believe that Seto was asking her this "I-I don't have a boyfriend"
"Then who are you here with?" asked Seto as he casually put his arm around the chair Serenity was sitting in and leaned close just to see what she'd do "Or are you here alone and you're lying to me?"
The only reason Seto was there was because Mokuba R.S.V.P'd for him without his consent. When he found out he was outraged of course, but Mokuba insisted it was for his own good. He said that he needed to get out more and meet women. Seto knew he was only trying to get him out of the house though. He probably wanted to have Serenity and the rest of his friends over. So Seto went to the party, was bored out of his mind, and planned to leave when he spotted Serenity. She was looking very attractive that evening and she appeared to be all alone. She also appeared to be quite bored as well so he decided to go over and sit beside her. After all he had been sent there to meet a woman right?
"Well...I'm here with...um.." stammered Serenity as she saw Seto's icy cold blue eyes just inches away from her face "Uh...a friend"
"And it took you that long to remember?" said Seto with a smirk as he leaned in even closer to her and whispered almost seductively into her ear "Or are you afraid to tell me?"
"I-I-I" stammered Serenity who was completely overwhelmed since she could feel Seto's warm breath against her neck "I've gotta go!"
Serenity immediately stood up and took off running. Her cheeks burned as if though on fire and her body was beginning to feel very limp. There was no way she could let Seto know just how she felt...she had to get away. Meanwhile Seto just sat there with an amused grin on his face. Despite the fact that the evening started out so boring, in the end it proved to be quite entertaining. The way Serenity behaved in his presence never failed to amuse him. She seemed so overwhelmed by him and the grand finale had to be when she ran off. Well now that she was gone there was no sense in staying. At least this evening wasn't a total waste ot time...
"Where is he?" thought Tea as she walked around and tried her best to see if she could figure out where Alex was "I should have seen him by now"
So far Tea's evening had been fairly boring. After she and Varon arrived, he vanished somewhere into the crowd. She didn't know why until she realized that Constantina was personally greeting everyone. Constantina was absolutely thrilled to see that she was there and that she was wearing the dress she'd sent her. She was so thrilled in fact that she gave Tea such a crushing hug that her ribs were left hurting. After this Tea quickly moved away and began her search for Alex. So far she had pretty much looked everywhere but still no sign of him. What Tea didn't realize was that half of the time, Amelda had been following her around. After awhile he spotted the safari duo, so he decided to hide. Luckily he found a dark corner about ten feet away from where Tea was currently standing. There now I can see her but she can't see me...
"Tea!" suddenly cried a voice somewhere in the distance and a moment later a smiling tuxedo clad redhead emerged from the crowd "There you are!"
"Alex!" exclaimed Tea as she gave the redhead a hug when he approached her since she was so happy to see him "You had me worried there for a second"
"Sorry about that" said Alex with an apologetic grin as he looked down at her since he was also happy to see him "It's just that I saw Arielle come in so I've been hiding from her"
"Oh it's just her little friend" thought Amelda who had been starting to get jealous at the thought of her running into another man "Well as long as she doesn't run into-"
"Stan!" screeched a blonde haired girl wearing a strapless red cocktail dress who was standing just a few feet away from Amelda "Take a look at this!"
"What the Hell is it Arielle?" said Stan who was also wearing a black tuxedo as he made his way over to the blonde "What's so damn important that-Tea!"
"That stupid whore!" shrieked Arielle who looked about ready to jump forward and tear Tea to shreds "What does Alex see in her?"
"Don't worry" said Stan as his lips curled into a malicious grin as he studied both Alex and Tea "We can fix this little inconvenience if we work together"
He immediately began to tell Arielle exactly what they were going to do. First Arielle was going to go over and get Alex out of the way somehow. Now that he knew what she was capable of, this wasn't going to be a problem. Unfortunately Tea might try to interfere, but he would handle that. He would distract Tea long enough for Arielle to make her getaway. Best of all once they were out of the way, he would have Tea all to himself. The sinster duo then laughed and immediately walked towards Tea and Alex. It was such a perfect plan that they were certain nothing would stop them. What they didn't realize was that Amelda had overheard their entire twisted plan. He already hated Stan but now he hated Arielle as well. She was just a selfish, stupid, and malicious as he was. The way she talked about the young redhead, whose name was apparently Alex, bordered along the line of obsession. It either of them try to hurt her... I won't hold back!
"So your neighbor brought you here?" asked Alex who was finally beginning to have a good time now that he found Tea "That's good since you probably didn't have to wait that long right?"
"Yeah and we got here pretty quickly" said Tea who was completely unaware of what was approaching until she felt someone push her "HEY!"
"Oh there you are Alex!" cried Arielle as she once again pushed Tea and ran over to the shocked looking young man and began to drag him off "I've been looking everywhere for you!"
As expected, Alex resisted and he tried to pull away. Tea knew very well that he didn't want to go so she grabbed his other arm. There was no way she was going to let him be dragged off. Arielle just gritted her teeth and began to pull his arm as hard as she could. There was no way she was going to leave without him. Suddenly Tea felt someone tap her shoulder and she turned around.
"Hi Tea" said Stan as he gave her a big smile as he looked down at her and was impressed at just how good she was looking "You're looking nice tonight"
"Sorry I can't talk right now!" said Tea as she didn't really feel much like talking to Stan at a time like this "I have to-Where did they go?"
In the few seconds that Stan had distracted Tea, Arielle had vanished with Alex. Alex was not being cooperative so Arielle had no choice but to hurt him. She didn't want to hurt him as bad as last time, so she merely kicked him in the shin. Still the blow was pretty painful, but it made it alot easier to drag him off. Amelda had seen the entire thing and he felt sorry for the younger redhead. Arielle was clearly a sadist and there was no telling what else she might be capable of doing.
"That's a really nice dress you're wearing" said Stan as he tried to change the subject since he didn't want her going off after them "Is it one of my mom's dresses?"
"Your mom?" said Tea with a confused look on her face as she looked up at Stan whose smile seemed almost borderline maniacal at that moment "What are you talking about?"
"Well since you're here" laughed Stan when he realized that Tea didn't know who his mother was which meant he'd get the chance to impress her "I assumed you knew"
"There you are Constantine!" cried Constantina as she suddenly darted out of nowhere and grabbed her son by the arm "Come there's someone just dying to see you!"
"Mom let me go!" hissed Constantine from the humiliation since his mom could not have picked a worse time to do this "This isn't the time!"
"Nonsense!" cried Constantina before grabbing Stan's ear and dragging him off like an unruly child "Now come along since it rude to keep them waiting!"
"Not so cool now are we?" thought Amelda with an amused grin on his face now that Constantina had made a fool of her son in front of Tea "This is probably the only time I've been happy to see Constantina"
"Wow.." thought Tea as she blinked her eyes since she had no clue what had just taken place despite the fact that she witnessed it "And I thought my mom was bad"
Tea then looked around for a moment and realized that she was by herself. She didn't really know anybody and the people she did know kept vanishing for one reason or another. Unless Alex somehow managed to reappear, she'd have to spend the rest of the night alone. Now as the stood there all alone, Amelda gazed at her longingly.The way her hair was styled complimented her face and made her look even more beautiful. The dress she was wearing was also incredible and made her look almost like a mermaid. He was extremely tempted to go over to her so he stepped out of the shadows a bit. After thinking about it for a few seconds, he sighed sadly and lowered his head. After all what were the odds that she would even like him? It seemed like he would have to be content with just observing her from afar. He was feeling so depressed that moment that he completely failed to notice that she was now facing in his direction. From where she was standing she could see a tall redhead man in a tuxedo concealed in the shadows.
"Alister?" thought Tea with a shocked look on her face as she looked directly at the man who looked exactly like one in her dreams "Can it be?"
Before Tea even knew what was happening, she felt her legs taking her over to him. When Amelda raised his head once again, he was startled to find her standing about four feet away from him. Her blue eyes were filled with a look of shock and disbelief as she looked up at him. She then blinked for a moment and she simply whispered "Alister". The moment she said this, Amelda felt fear unlike any other. Without any further thinking he found himself running as fast as he could towards the exit.
"It is him!" gasped Tea when she realized that this man truly was Alister so she decided to follow him in hopes of seeing who he was "Wait! Come back!"
"I don't think she knows who I really am" thought Amelda as he ran even faster towards the exit when he realized that she was following him "I have to make sure it stays that way!"
"Alister!" cried Tea as she saw him run through the exit so she picked up her speed despite the fact that she was wearing high heels "Please come back!"
Amelda ran as quickly as he could in hopes of getting to the street where he had parked his motorcycle. Unfortunately Tea was right on his heels and she kept crying out for him to stop. He decided to forget about the motorcycle and just continued running as fast as he could. His main priority right now was to give her the slip somehow. Then again that probably shouldn't be too hard since judging by the sound of her footsteps she was in high heels. She would eventually get tired, stop chasing him, and go back to the party. Several blocks later this didn't seem to be the case since she was still after him. He couldn't believe that she still hadn't given up, but that's when he heard it: a body hitting the pavement.
"Huh?" said Amelda as he quickly spun around and saw Tea lying facedown on the sidewalk not too far from him "Tea?"
He quickly ran over to her and when he turned her over he realized that she was unconscious. She had been so determined to catch up to him that she ran until she passed out from the sheer exhaustion. With the distance they had run it was no wonder since they were nearly home at that point. He knew it was his fault, so he carefully picked her up in his arms and decided to take her home. She probably won't wake up til tomorrow...
"Mai doesn't love me because I'm worthless" thought Varon who was sitting against a wall right outside the entrance of the Azure Inc building "I'm so worthless that nobody'll ever want me"
After Varon left the party, he spend the rest of the evening sitting outside feeling like crap. At first he had been so angry that he began to curse like crazy and punch the wall. After doing this for awhile, his knuckles were bloody and his throat was sore. After this he threw himself against the wall in another attempt to further hurt himself. Then again no physical pain could be a match for the pain in his heart. After awhile he just collapsed onto his knees and felt hot tears, of sadness and rage, flow from his eyes. He wiped the tears away in disgust and wasted no time in verbally abusing himself. He was determined to hurt himself one way of another. After a session of raw, cruel, and unbridled self loathing, it seemed he achieved his goal. He felt worse than he had ever felt in his entire life...
"All I can do now is pity myself" thought Varon as he ignored the glances of some people passing by at that moment "Pity myself like the worthless trash that I am"
"I still can't believe I acted like that in front of Kaiba" thought Serenity to herself as she walked down the sidewalk back towards the entrance "I don't even want to think what would happen if Joey ever found out"
After running out of the party, Serenity decided that the only thing she could do was hide. She noticed that there was a coffee shop across the street so she ran over there and hid. As long as Seto was inside of the party, she had no intention of returning. After awhile Seto finally emerged from the party, got into the back of his limo, and was gone. Serenity just breathed a sigh of relief since she would now be able to go back. Right as she was about the head back into the party, she noticed a young man off to the side. He was a brunette with some of the wildest and messiest hair she had ever seen..but could it possibly be? There's only one way to find out...
"Valon?" asked Serenity in a very soft and almost shy voice since she wasn't certain if this was the same young man from the pizza place "Is that you?"
"Huh?" said Varon rather hoarsely as he raised his head to see who called him by his pseudonym "S-Serenity?"
"It is you" said Serenity as she smiled since she was happy to see him but it quickly faded when she noticed the sad look on his face "Is something wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong" said Varon as he quickly lowered his head since he was honestly in no mood to speak to anyone "Nothing at all..."
"Your hands!" suddenly cried Serenity as she noticed the dried blood and bruises on his knuckles "What happened to you?"
Most people would simply believe that Varon had gotten into a fight judging by the bruises on his hands. The moment Serenity first looked into his eyes, she realized it was much more serious than that. Varon's sky blue eyes were filled with a look that could only be described as misery and despair. He wasn't just hurting physically, he was hurting mentally as well. But what on Earth could have inflicted so much suffering on him? When Varon finally raised his glance, he was surprised to find Serenity kneeling down beside him. Her warm beautiful brown eyes were filled with a look of concern. This was strange since Raphael and Amelda were the only ones who ever seemed to worry about him. Why did she care though? Was she simply pitying him because he was so lowly and pathetic at that moment? Yeah that's probably it...
"I'll be alright" said Varon with a weak smile before turning to look away from her since he didn't want her pity"You should get back before your boyfriend worries about you"
"Actually.." said Serenity as she felt her cheeks beginning to burn as she was forced to admit the truth for the second time that evening "I don't have a boyfriend"
"You don't have a boyfriend?" asked Varon as his head snapped up in disbelief at what he was hearing "What about that black haired bloke you were with at Constantina's last party?"
"Mokuba?" asked Serenity who was more surprised to hear that Varon had seen her at the last party "He's just a friend of mine"
"I'm sure you've had others though" said Varon who was honestly a little happy to hear that the rich boy wasn't her boyfriend "Am I right?"
"Actually" said Serenity very shyly since she was being forced to admit something that she'd never really admitted to a stranger before "I've never had a boyfriend..."
Varon could not believe what he had just heard. Serenity the beautiful young girl standing in front of him had never had a boyfriend? How could this be though? She was absolutely one of the most beautiful girls he had ever seen in his life. She blushed and shyly lowered her gaze when she noticed him looking straight at her. She was definitely telling the truth and the truth could not have been better. Now that he knew this, there was no way he was letting her get away. He wanted to get to know her and now was the chance. Without further hesitation he quickly pulled himself up, dusted himself off, and ran a hand through his messy hair.
"Listen...uh.." asked Varon who suddenly found himself having a hard time getting the words out "Do ya wanna go get some coffee or something?"
"Really?" asked Serenity who was pretty surprised since she had never really had any guy(except Tristan) ask her out, even for coffee, before "Um...okay!"
With that they both smiled at each other and promptly made their way across the street. They were both secretly feeling happy that they had found each other. Now they could finally get to know each other. Nothing can spoil this moment...
"I hope that woman from last time doesn't show up" thought Amelda as he struggled to unlock Tea's front door without making too much noise "That's the last thing I need"
Much to Amelda's relief he was able to get the door open fairly quickly. He then promptly went inside and closed the door behind him. The apartment was dark at that moment and the only light that came in was from a window in the living room. Just like last time though, the light was shining down on the couch. Amelda promptly walked over to the couch, lay Tea down, and put her purse on the glass coffee table. He planned to just drop her off and leave quickly, but now he found himself unable to do so. As he knelt there beside her and looked at her, he knew he couldn't lie to himself anymore. He loved her and he secretly wished that she could love him as well. He then brought his hand towards her face and gently began to caress her cheek. Suddenly she gave a little groan and opened her eyes a bit.
"No!" thought Amelda as he fell backwards with a rather loud thud when he realized that she was waking up "Not now!"
"Alister?" asked Tea as she sat up and noticed the young man lying there on the ground despite the fact that it was so dark "It is you!"
Amelda was in such shock that he immediately got up and tried to flee once again. Tea was quick though and she managed to grab him by the arm. He desperately tried to pull himself free but it was no use since she had a firm grip. She was not going to let him get away until she knew who he was. Especially now that I'm falling in love with you...
"Wait!" cried Tea as she dug her heels into the carpet in order to keep him from escaping "Do you have any idea how much I've wanted to meet you?"
"What?" thought Amelda in disbelief the moment he heard her say this "Is she serious?"
"Please..." pleaded Tea in her sincerest tone of voice since she really did want to know who he was "I'm telling you the truth"
Amelda didn't even know why he was doing it, but he stopped resisting. A part of him was still tempted to run away, but another part wanted to stay there. At that moment just like in his dreams, Tea reached up, and began to stroke his cheek. Her hands were so soft that it was far better than he ever could have hoped her. As he looked down at her, he happened to notice the look in her eyes.
"That's the same look she has in my dreams" thought Amelda as he stared intently into her dark blue eyes more than ever "But what does it mean?"
As Tea stood there stroking his cheek, she couldn't resist anymore. Even though she didn't know what he looked like, she longed to do this. Without further thinking she pulled him forward and kissed him on the lips. Amelda was startled since he never expected this, but now it was happening. Now he knew that the look in her eyes meant that she did have feelings towards him. Finally Amelda was able to put an end to all his doubts and give in to his true feelings. He then wrapped his arms around her and their kiss grew more passionate. Everything about this felt so right and it was the best thing that either one had ever experienced.
"Will you let me see who you are?" asked Tea once the kiss ended since she was now completely certain of her feelings for him "Please?"
"Yes" responded Amelda who was feeling exactly the same way she was at that moment "I'd do anything for you"
Tea gave a smile and immediately went over and turned on one of the lamps. The moment she had been waiting for had finally arrived. She was finally going to get to see who the man in her dreams actually looked like! The only thing she still did wonder about was the little boy who appeared in her dreams. Did Alister really have a little brother named Miruko or was he just a dream? She hoped not since Miruko was the cutest little thing and she would love to meet him. When Tea finally looked over, she thought she had lost her mind.
"What?" thought Tea as her eyes opened wide in disbelief at the person she was seeing in front of her "Amelda?"
At first Tea thought that maybe it was all a dream and that she'd wake up at any moment. Amelda was a tall handsome redhead with stunning grey eyes and he was wearing a tuxedo. He matched Alister's description perfectly. Suddenly reality hit and she realized that this was not a dream. Even though Alister could have been anyone, he turned out to be a person who most likely hated her. Why did this have to happen?
"Why?" screamed Tea in anguish as she looked up at him and felt a sharp pain rip through her heart "WHY?"
Tea suddenly felt something cold surround her and her body went limp. The last thing she remembered feeling was a horrible pain in her back before everything went black. The pain she felt was nothing compared to what Amelda was feeling. When he noticed the shocked look on Tea's face, he had a bad feeling. She had obviously not expected it to be him. The next thing he knew she began to scream and almost immediately fainted. She then fell backwards onto the coffee table and it shattered into many pieces. As Amelda looked at her lying among the broken glass, he knew this wasn't the only thing she had shattered. She had also shattered his hopes, his dreams, and more importantly...his heart.
