Lips of an Angel

The Party

*Christelles P.O.V*

When I got home I remembered it was my birthday. I only remembered because the palace was decorated and my father hired the God of the stars to spell out 'Happy Birthday Christelle' I smiled at how silly my dad could be at times. When I got to the gate the gate keeper opened them and I said my thanks. As soon as I stepped foot on the lawn Ashley tackeled me and whispered in my ear to tell her everything that happened. I smiled again as I re-lived the moment when Justin kissed my hand.

"You can't tell anyone. Promise?" I looked at Ash seriously. Sometimes she could have a big mouth.

"Promise. Now tell me!!" she whispered eagerly. I looked back and forth.

"To many people. Let's go to my room." As I got up to walk to my room she stopped me.

"You didn't like, kiss him, did you? Because you know that we're not allowed to interfere with humans." She said with concern in her eyes. I just walked away making her gasp. I ran to my room and she followed. I slammed the door shut and my back slid down the wall ruffling my feathers. She stared doe eyed at me until I finally spoke in a soft, sweet whisper.

"He kissed my hand." I said and closed my eyes while I waited for her to respond. It's such a stupid rule. Why can't I be with anyone I want to be with?!?! I hate the rules my dad came up with to 'Protect the people'.

"Was he cute?!" Ashley finally said with efficient in her eyes. I was shocked. I thought she was going to freak out and remind me about the rules.

"Don't look at me like that!! I know that you have never had a boyfriend before because of your father. All the guys here are to scared because of him, or their jealous because you have more power than them!! Haha I can't believe that boy kissed your hand!!!" Ash said with a gleam in her eyes.

"Oh my gosh I thought you were going to tell me the rules!!" I responded.

"Nooo girl!! I'm so happy for you!! What's his name?! Is he cute!? Is he strong?? Wha-"

"Enough with the questions!!!" I said. I could still hear her thoughts flinging questions at me every second.

"Yes. He is cute. He has the most beautiful different colored eyes you ever did see. He has shaggy brown hair and a nice face. He has strong arms that look like they could carry you away forever. Don't even get me started on his lips." I said laughing.

"You are so giddy Chrissy." Ash said. I just looked at her.

"Of course I am. He's the first boy that ever did that. Even after I told him who I was."

"WHAT!???!?!?" Ashley said.

"He knows Ash. He wont tell anyone. He promised." I said quickly.

"Okay Christelle. But if he hurts you. I'm going to have to hurt him." Ash said pulling her fangs out.

"Haha ok. Let me get changed into my party dress and we can go. Can you do my hair?"

"Sure Hun. I'll be in the bathroom warming up the iron." Ashley smiled at me as she got up.

"I am happy for you." she said. "Just be careful." and with that she walked away.

I got up off the floor and took my dress off. I looked at my party dress and hissed. 'I hate corsets' I thought. This one was specially mad for me because of my wings coming out of the middle of my back. I sighed and started putting on the dress. First the under garment, then the stupid corset, then the I've garment. When I looked in th mirror the dress took my breath away.

"I look beautiful" I whispered. The dress had a swooped neck and made my chest look firm. It showed alot but not to much. It was a light blue that reminded me of Cinderellas dress. The dress was tight at my midsection and made my waist look even smaller (Thanks to the corset) My midsection was decorated with swirls of beads and silk. The dress went all the way to my feet and puffed out the slightest bit. In the back it showed my back down until my waistline, where it hugged my hips tightly making my wings stand out even more. I smiled and went into the bathroom.
