episode 5 : the pirate and the princess

The fun fact is that we never saw each other's faces . “Let's play a game,” he said . “What game?” “ Let's have a race on the beach. the winner has a prize '''' deal, ''I said . We had the race and he won .  “This is where the pirate set foot first , right ?” “ oh you know the legend of the pirate and the princess” i said . The princess and the pirate is an agrarian legend about a pirate who came to agara  a few centuries ago . He was here to exploit the land but he fell in love with the agrarian princess . When the king heard this , he ordered his guards to catch the pirate and behead him. The princess was locked up in her room  . The pirate was beheaded before the  princess and she went mad . She took the pendant that she had in her neck  and slit her throat . Then she died . The story always waters up my eyes .  I  stared at the stars and looked at Ethan . his eyes were twinkling . He looked at me . Ethan pulled me up closer . He took a strand of my hair that was standing out and tucked it back to my ear . He cupped my face and he was literally close enough to kiss me and he did . 

i was shocked and backed off . “Sorry , I didn't know what I was doing. I am really sorry, August .”  this was my first kiss . i smiled and blushed on that thought . he leaned to see if i was smiling . i was . and he did to .  “ i have only known you for a few hours but i think i have fallen for you. i think , no, i know i love you’’ he said “ wait what ? what did you say ?” “ i said I love you” . He hugged me and kissed me again  . Then he held my hands . ‘ let's go back to the ballroom’’ he said . We walked over to them while holding hands . His hands were warm and cozy . I kind of liked it .Before entering the ballroom , I gave him a kiss on the cheek or the mask for that matter . He was smiling shyly . “ Come on , I want to dance, '' he nodded . We were dancing with the waltz . Suddenly I saw July . She was crying . I am also Alice . What was she doing here? . i had to go over there . “ethan? can i go over to my sister? i think shes upset . i will be right back .” i said . he said yes and i walked over to july . she was holding felixs hand . alice was teling something to felix . “ felix , why are you dancing with her! i am feeling better now so lets dance” “okay” said felix . “ umm… july i am sorry but i have to go with alice . enjoy the party !” he said . he turned to alice and held her hand . julys eyes went down and she exclaimed “ why cant i be enough for you ?”  felix turned “ what ?”  “ why cant i ever be enough for you” felix looked puzzled . “ i always follow you around at school. i always take care about your schoolwork . i always appreciate you.  i always loved you but it was never me’’ tears were coming from her eyes . Eric ran over to her . He saw her crying and tried to console her . she pushed him . “ Please stay, Felix .” she begged him . “ my heart broke into a thousand pieces whenever you dated a girl. I beg you , please stay with me” she said . her eyes were sparkling with tears . I have never seen her begging anybody . I looked at Felix .  He looked at her with pity .

  Then he turned around and walked away . Before that Eric pulled him back and hit him in the face. Felix fell on the floor and was about to beat him again but July blocked him crying loudly “ don't hit him, please” “why do you always support him? he doesn't love you . but I do !” “ It's not his fault , it's mine! I should have tried harder ." she said . “ stop! please . you do realize that i feel the same way about you as you feel about felix . I get hurt too . i thought after all these years , you might miss me , you might love me but ….'' July , on hearing that I cried more and more. Eric picked her up and directed her to the bathroom . “ Auggie i….”said Felix . “ You didn't have to walk away,” I said , cutting him off .
