After a while of thinking I just realized how gushy this story is… :/
No Pov.
"It was just so awful! All the screaming babies and women, and those horrible creatures. It's still as vivid now as it was when I had the dream," she said a few tears in her eyes as the picture in her mind got clearer, and it almost seemed like it was continuing from where it had ended. She closed her eyes tightly and breathed heavily. Lloyd put his hand on her shoulder.
"Loral? What's wrong?" he asked in a slightly scared tone. She started shaking. "Loral!?" he asked even more frantic this time. Again the shadows appeared in her head, and so the creatures. They moaned her name, even the people's spirits who were crying out in agony almost seemed to say her name. Again she tried to run but she couldn't move. And even worse things than before appeared. Skeletons suddenly dug their way out of the ground and started slowly walking around. Some of them were covered in blood. One even had blood pouring out of its chest. Loral started crying from fear and the awful pain that was in her head.
"Loral please answer me. Loral please!" Lloyd said with genuine fear in his voice. She just continued to cry and hold her head. Lloyd stroked her hair and held her close to him. She stopped holding her head as the picture faded and laid her head on his shoulder as she continued to cry. "Shh shh. It's okay Loral it's okay," he said softly, kissing her hair.
"What does it mean Lloyd? What? I don't want it to come back. I don't want it too. Oh Lloyd it was so terrible!" she said. He nodded.
"Just try not to think about it Loral. I'm sure it doesn't mean anything," he said, his gentle voice comforting her. She nodded and hugged him tighter. "Hey, maybe we can do something special tonight. Away from all the noise and chaos. Watta you say?" he asked. She nodded.
"I'd like that. Can we go watch a movie now Lloyd? I want to just spend time with you today," Loral told him. He nodded and they went into the movie/video game room and they turned on a movie. Loral put her head on Lloyd's chest and cuddled up close to him. Lloyd smiled as he looked down at her. He kissed her head.
"I love you Loral," he whispered. She smiled up at him.
"I love you too," she answered. Lloyd stroked her hair softly during the whole movie. After they had finished watching it they decided to turn on one more before they went out.
Jessica's Pov.
I brushed out my long brick red hair and put it in a high pony tail and let one strand hang out on the side of my head. I curled that piece and left the rest straight.
I got on a purple and black dress that went down to my knees in the front and trailed past my ankles in the back. There were rind stones on the top of the dress and black lace at the bottom. The dress had no sleeves though it went high enough to cover up everything. There was a light red violate ribbon in the middle that had a bow on the side. I put on some black sparkly shoes and put on a little lip gloss with a purple-ish tint, purple eyeliner and mascara. (A/n Purple is one of my favorite colors and looks really good as makeup and clothes. IMO)
I looked at myself in the mirror. I think I'm good… I've never really dressed up fancy so this is new to me. I honestly looked up everything on the internet…
I spun around in the dress. It looks fine, it won't come up. Even if it does I'm always prepared when wearing dresses. I wear shorts under them.
After my finally look at heard a knock on my door. My heart nearly jumped out of my chest. I let out a nervous sigh and took one last glance in the mirror. I walked over to the door and I heard Cole's voice. "Hey you ready Jessica?" he asked. I opened the door and smiled.
"Yep," I answered as I opened it. My heart did a loop-de-loop when I saw him. I mean I've in a way liked him for a long time so seeing him like this in person is…Like heaven. He was wearing a brown tuxedo with and white undershirt and black tie. He stood there with his eyes wide making me blush like a red tomato. (That's right people tomatoes can be orange! Sorry lol) "Are we going now?" I asked. Cole shook his head as if coming out of a daze and nodded.
"Uh yeah. I have everything set up. They had to do some last minute signing up stuff," Cole said. I nodded and I walked out not even noticing that I had taken his hand. We headed outside and he made his dragon. I nervous stepped up as he took my hand. I blushed a little. I got on behind him and wrapped my arms around him. "You ready?" he asked. I nodded and he flew up into the air, and his earth dragon roared. There were a few girls we passed over who were definitely Cole fangirls.
"OHMYGOSHCOLEHASAGIRLWITHHIMWHATHASTHISWORLDCOMETO?! IWASGONNAMARRYHIMANDWEWEREGONNAHAVEKIDS!" One was saying. It was actually much longer and some of the girls were actually cursing very loudly. That I will not repeat.
We soon arrived at the restaurant and we got to our table. I looked around the place. Cole wasn't kidding when he said this place was fancy. It had glass chandeliers, red carpets, every table had a vase of roses on it, and all the customers looked rich. My dress looked plain to some of them!
We ordered our food but it would take a while. "This could take a while," I said. Cole nodded. "No better person to wait with than you," he said smirking at me causing me to blush.
No Pov.
The night had come. Loral and Lloyd were walking outside. Loral leaned slightly on Lloyd. The night was beautiful, a perfectly romantic scene. Stars shown bright, the moon was full and lit up the place around them. Small flowers were beginning to close and the dew had already fallen on them causing their petals to sparkly.
"It's so peaceful out here," Loral whispered. Lloyd nodded.
"Much better than Jay pestering both of us to play video games with him…" he said laughing a little. Loral smiled. They reached an area that almost looked like a fairy garden. Beautiful weeping willow trees crowded around the place and there was a pretty stream going through the middle of it. There were a few flowers here and there, each sparkling in the moonlight, looking like they had just been sprinkled with pixie dust.
Loral sat down on a log and looked up at the sky. "It's so beautiful, isn't it?" she commented smiling softly. She laid her head on Lloyd's chest. "I wish every day and night could be like this…" Loral said. Lloyd nodded.
"Me too. I love spending time with you," he said kissing her head. She smiled slightly. He lifted her head slightly. "You know I love you, right?" he asked. She nodded.
"Y-yes," Loral answered. Lloyd closed his eyes and leaned in and kissed her. Loral closed her eyes and kissed him back. She could feel her heart pumping faster and faster with every second. Lloyd put his arms around Loral's back while she put her arms around his neck. Lloyd's hands moved up and down her back sending chills down her spine.
They finally parted and Loral smiled. "I love you Lloyd…" she whispered. Lloyd smiled.
"I love you too," he answered.
Cole's Pov.
After what seemed like ages of waiting (which Jessica had told me was only fifteen minutes) our food was finally brought to us. I felt starving…Then again I always am.
We talked a lot during dinner. I was telling her about what it's like being a ninja. She said she does a lot of gymnastics and eve does a karate. She told me that when she was twelve she started doing karate once a week and has been doing it until now and she's nineteen. When I saw she looked like a sporty type person. She's actually really strong…and how I know that is because she challenged me to an arm wrestling match. She didn't even care that so many people were looking at us weirdly! She's great.
"So, do you think you can show me your spinjitzu sometime?" Jessica asked. I nodded.
"Yeah of course!" I exclaimed. "I'd really like to see your karate. I know that I know it really well but I wanna see why you almost beat me at arm wrestling," I said jokingly. Jessica laughed.
"Oh that? Ha, I was going easy on you!" she exclaimed. My eyes widened.
"Haha sure…" I said. She went easy on me!? I need to work out more!
"Don't worry Cole. I go to the gym every day. I lift weights. That's why I'm so strong for being a girl. My parents never really cared about protecting me, they don't really care about me. So, I decided that if they ever were to…well, abandon me, I'd need to know how to defend myself," Jessica said. I was kind of startled at the description of what her life was like. I signaled her to keep telling. "So when I was ten I started sneaking some my dad's money…Yes I know I was a bad girl but my dad never noticed since he always spent it all anyway. So I used it to get into the gym and I started fitness training," she told me.
"That's crazy. So…you don't have a good relationship with you parents?" I asked. She nodded sadly. "I didn't have a good relationship with my dad. But now it's better I guess," I told her.
"What about your mom?" Jessica asked. I sighed sadly.
"She left my dad when I was five…" I said sadly. Her eyes widened.
"Oh I'm sorry…" she apologized. I smiled slightly.
"It's okay. Really," I told her. She smiled back.
-Time skip-
I walked outside with Jessica. "I had a great time. What about you?" I asked her. Jessica smiled brightly as me.
"Oh I loved it!" she exclaimed. "You should do it again sometime," she said. I smiled and blushed slightly.
"Uh Jessica can I ask you something?" I asked. She nodded. "Ask away," she said. I took a deep breath. My face felt hot and I knew I was blushing. "Will you be my girlfriend?" She gave me a big smile and hugged me.
"Yes Cole! I would love to be!" she exclaimed. She was blushing. I hugged her back.
"I was hoping you'd say that…"
I took forever to update! I am so sorry! I seriously had no inspiration until like a couple days ago. Writers block really sucks...
