*3 weeks later*
"COME ON KAMIKAI! WE ALLREADY BROUGHT THE DRESS AND EVERYTHING WHO CARES IF NOCTIS IS GOING TO BE THERE!" Kyrie yelled at me "Kyrie, please do not yell or use my real name, remember only you know it!" I sighed "Fine I'll go but I have no one to go with anyway! I would go with Lady but she isn't interested in this type of thing, and Trish hates me, and to be honest I'm not her biggest fan either!" Kyrie looked at me blankly "lets see Kamikai, maybe DANTE! She yelled at me again and crossed her arm :He would definitely go with you!" Kyrie nodded her head, Unfortunately I knew she was right, "Fine Ill ask him!" "Great! Ill go get him!" Kyrie spoke and went to run out of the room, I just missed her arm and she sped out the door. "Dante, Dante!" She yelled as she ran down the stairs. I walked back into my room and sat on the sofa bed with my head in my hands hoping that Dante wasn't going to come up the stairs. Though of course within about a minute I heard the noise of his boots on a hard wood floor and being myself, I got extremely shy, not because It was Dante or anything….but because I never thought I would be asking Dante to attend a Ball with me. "Phoenix? You Okay, Kyrie told me you had to speak with me about something important" He looked concerned when he saw me sitting on the sofa bed, looking down at the floor, I lifted my head so I could see his face, the look of concern crossed his face as he walked over to me an sat on the sofa next to me, putting his arm around me. I felt my face cover in a blush as he leaned in closer to me, centimetres away from my face, I could feel his breath on my cheek, I wouldn't dare look into his light blue eyes, I mightn't be able to control myself when I did. It's true that I have liked Dante for quite a while now but he doesn't exactly help, he is always so close to me and always treats me in a loving way. "Phon… are you okay?" "u-um yeah I'm fine, it's just well, I was wondering if- you would , you know, consider, going to, the uh, Ball, thingi with me." I paused "B-But , you know I couldn't care less if you didn't want to go, cause I was only going cause well, y-you know Kyrie wanted me to go and yeah….." I said, quick to look at the ground because I felt a hot tear roll down my face. The truth is I did want to go to the ball but I didn't want Dante knowing that, I didn't want my cool and calm reputation to be ruined because I wanted to go to a stupid ball. I looked at the wall away from Dante. I breathed in and tried to brush the blush off my face. It was then I felt Dante's hand grab my jaw and pull my face towards his, I closed my eyes so I didn't need to look into his eyes, though I wish I did so at least I could have seen what was going to happen next. Dante moved his hand gently up and down my jaw line, I took no notice of him moving my hair out of my face, still rubbing my jaw. He then stopped moving his hand and kept his hand positioned on my upper jaw. There was a dead silent pause, Suddenly I opened my eyes wide and my face was once again covered in a huge blush as I felt Dante's soft lips interlock with mine. I Felt my eyes start to water as he moved his hand from my jaw onto the back of my head, pulling me further into the kiss, Dante finally pulled away from me about 10 minutes after the initial kiss. And looked down, I sat there shocked and shaking. Dante moved his head up under my chin and slid his head up, much like lions to in courtship. "Of course, I will go with you to the ball Phoenix, all you had to do was ask me, I Love you, Phoenix." Dante then positioned himself so he could rest his head on my upper legs, looking up at me, I saw that he was covered in a blush smiling at me. "Well, the ball is tomorrow, so I should probably go shopping for something formal to wear" Dante lifted his head off my legs and walked out of the room.
It took 4 hours for me to fully recover from what happened, tomorrow is the Ball, I guess I better get organised…..
