Masquerade ball

Edgar's POV- The manor decided to hold yet another party, this time it would be where no one could see your face so you won't know who you're talking to unless you know their voice. I'm not sure as to why they thought something like this would be a good idea but I don't really have a say in if I go or not- they offered rewards if we go and Emma is forcing me to go with her. She says Edgar you can't sit in your room all day and paint the love of your life, WATCH ME. I'm just kidding because she is currently dragging me down the hall by a piece of my clothing fabric.

Of course everyone that goes to these things has an expectation, yes I am included in that. There is a specific person I would like to dance with, who? pft why should I tell you. Anyway his name is Luca Balsa, one of the most promising people in this manor- in my opinion. Me and him have been close since the very start, why not just ask him out already? you may ask but like me and any other person who's ever had a crush it's much more easier said than done. I've tried so many times but every attempt seems to fail. I'm hoping tonight that I at least get to share one dance with him. If it's Luca I would recognize him almost immediately. Emma finally let go of me once we reached the ballroom.

"Now Edgar, we are going to have a good time, right." Emma huffed

"Sure" I said sarcastically

"C'mon I know there's someone you are dying to dance with" She pouted

"Oh I bet there's someone you are too, Cough Tracy" I spat out

"WHAT EDGAR SHUSH I DO NOT" she stammered

"Emma I literally see you guys holding hands in the garden like everyday, I see you eyeing her up" I rolled my eyes

"Oh yeah well don't think I don't see all those paintings of Luc-" she began

"Tracy SHUT IT"

"YOU BROUGHT THAT ON UPON YOURSELF" Emma huffed

"OKAY LET'S JUST GO IN" I tried to change the subject.

Me and Emma kinda treated each other like family in a way, we got into little arguments but in the end we didn't mean any harm by it and we do care for each other. Me and Emma split up once we were inside, it wasn't hard to tell who people were. The costumes were kinda cheaply made, except mine of course. I looked around the ballroom, eventually music started playing and I got dragged into many dances with random people. After dancing for what felt like hours I stepped out for a break- not only was I tired but I still haven't got the chance to dance with Luca, I sat down on the floor where the party lights didn't shine. I put my head in my knees, but I soon felt someone's presence in front of me. I looked up to see someone smiling at me.

"Eddie that's not like you, me and you dance like this for longer then you just danced"

I knew who it was immediately by the voice, I looked up.

"Luca?!?" I asked

"Yes" he smiled

I stood up to greet him, and to my surprise he pulled me into a hug and then back on the dance floor.

"Wait what are we doing"

"We're gonna dance! I know you have been wanting to"

" how did you-" I started but then thought and looked over at Emma and she looked back at me with a smug grin, she told him didn't she. It is so over for her after this.

After giving her the death stare I turned back to Luca and smiled a bit. Without another word I was dragged back onto the dance floor. Me and Luca danced the night away, I looked at Emma every so often to make sure she was doing okay- which she was,with no big surprise she was simping over Tracy. Eventually the ball came to an end and with that everyone took off their masks, Luca smiled at me and put his hand on my cheek.

"There's my Eddie'' he smiled while planting a kiss on my head before heading off to his room for the night. Everything happened so fast I barely had time to react. Emma walked over to me and of course teased me, it's easy to make a comeback because she also has a love interest. We walked back to our rooms, and I hit my bed with exhaustion. When I hit my bed I felt something scrape my neck, I turned around and it was cardstock paper with a note on it.

"Ouchie" I said while picking it up, it appeared to be from Luca.

"Look outside your window" I read the note out loud. Oh no he didn't, he wouldn't... I walked over to my window to see that idiot staring up at me. He did...

"Save your questions for later" Luca cheered

"HOW DID YOU GET IN MY HO-" I exclaimed

"Questions later!" Luca repeated

"LUCA YOUR GONNA GET A COLD DON'T YOU SEE ALL THE RAIN POURING DOWN" I said while looking at him

"That's okay! I wanna tell you something" Luca dorkly smiled

"Just come in here and DO NOT climb up here" I huffed

"Okay" Luca said while running to the front of the manor and coming inside. Not too long after Luca bursted in through my door and hugged me.

"LUCA NOOO YOU GOT WATER ALL OVER YOU"

"OH WHOOPS I'M SORRY I FORGOT" Luca apologized

"It's okay.." I sighed

"I wanna tell you something" Luca confessed

"I was gonna tell you something too" I said while looking away

"Oh then-" he started

"No you go first" I reassured him

"Edgar I like you"

"I like you too!" I smiled and couldn't believe what just happened. Am I dreaming...?

"I managed to sneak out of my room to get here, the manor doesn't know im here and I know i'm supposed to tell them if i'm staying with anyone so I have to go" Luca frowned

"It's okay Lu I mean we can always plan some for tomorrow"

"Okay!!!" Luca perked up

"Good night lover boy" I smiled

"Good night" he laughed on his way out

In my mind I was happy that all of this happened, but I can already hear Emma's voice ringing in the back of the mind saying I TOLD YOU SO. If I had to guess this was likely her plan, a confession could NOT be this well planned out to the point where it feels unreal. Let's just say tomorrow is payback time.
