…Candy was laying in bed and could not fall asleep. Now, when she calmed down, she was terribly ashamed of her recent behaviour. Indeed, why was she such a crybaby, and the fact that she was rude to Dorothy ... How she could behave like that!
'It will be necessary to apologize to Dorothy in the morning,' the girl decided.
Candy sat on the bed and then, after thinking, she went to the table. A letter from Terry. And why is she so angry? Terry was just worried about her.
Just like Archie, Annie, Mr. Albert, Dorothy, Mr. Steve and the others. Well, that's all.
They all considered Daniel Legan a monster. And they wanted to prevent her from making a mistake.
Neil, Neil! It seemed to her that his face reflected on the window glass. His ironic look, his smile, his warmth... Candy knew that Neil was different with and with others. Maybe it was not right, but she saw him differently. She saw that he really loved her, she felt it.
And when she could lose him, Candy realized that she loved him too. Just at the moment when she realized that she would not see his eyes anymore, she realized that she loved. That happened in some imperceptible way for her.
The girl's thoughts imperceptibly led to the story of Romeo and Juliet. In this story, lovers were hampered by hatred between their families. And it ruined everything.
And what about her… His family was against their relationship, and her friends too.
It would be better for everyone if they break up.
' But I want to be with him! And he wants to be with me!' Candy whispered. Is it really that hard to understand? Is not it possible to forget the past grievances that she had forgotten long ago?
Time needs to pass. But now they need to stand firm.
Candy went to the door. Very close, there, at the end of the corridor there is the Neil's room.
She wanted to see him. Her heart was pounding.
Recently, Neil began to behave toward her... as she was a child. Earlier, for example, he kissed her quite differently. Her legs gave way because of those kisses, and she felt her body respond to him.
And today he just kissed her cheek to say goodbye. He seemed to be trying to restrain himself, but why?
He treated her like a little girl, but Candy felt that it was not enough for her. Something inside was growing and demanding more. It was felt like some sort of hunger she could not control.
She really wanted him to kiss her like... then.
Then, when she stopped him, in her room. And why was she so scared?
The girl put her arms around her and sat down on the bed. That time he kissed her, and the whole her body coveted his touch, opened to meet him, like a flower to the hot sun.
When his hands touched her, she recognized a new self. Undiscovered, uncharted feelings she never knew about in herself, overwhelmed her up to the hilt.
It was foolish to be frightened. In general, recently she behaved silly. Indeed, like a child.
She wondered why she could not see him right now? What is the reason?
These rules, she never understood them! And did not obey. Why she had to lay and think about a person, if she could walk a few meters and see him.
She will have done it!
Miss White opened the door a little, it was dark. The whole house was asleep.
She quietly slipped out of the room and walked along the corridor, silently stepping along the carpet with her bare feet.
'I'll just say "good night" to him, and that's all,' the girl said to herself. In fact, she did not understand why she was going to Neil. Something pushed her to go forward.
She wanted to see him at least once before sleeping, feel the warmth of his hands and his lips on hers.
Candy stopped. Here is his room. It's not too late to turn back, just walk away. He does not even know that she is so close to him.
Her heart pounded so hard that she nearly lost consciousness. What's wrong with her? Why is she so worried?
She was standing in the corridor, dressed only in nightgown, and her hands were covered with goosebumps. But it was not because of cold, but because of that strange excitement, that awakened sensuality of the body, because of this sweet fear of a man. Because of this anticipation of pleasure that bordered on pain.
If he wants to make her belong to him now, then let it be. She wants this by herself.
Candy raised her hand and knocked the door softly.
