Numbing Zephyrs -Part 2

Cutting the rug

He found her in the back room of the attic, Horace and Artie had turned it into a sort of yoga/quiet room. It was beautifully decorated with light curtains, little lights and butterfly origami glued onto the wall. There was also a vast collection of tulips, making the room look rainbow. There was also a sky light slightly covered in vines. Cruella was sitting on the couch, curled up in a little ball, eyes scrunched closed. Jasper walked over to her and sat down on the couch. He maneuverered her and when she realised that Jasper was here, she snuggled into him. "I'm sorry, I don't know what's wrong with me." "I'm just worried we will have a really big fight." Cruella burst into tears and Jasper felt his eyes get watery. He lifted Cruella up to sit and they hugged. "What do we do?" Cruella said, her voice quivering. "Well, the only option I see is to make a promise" "Of what?" "We promise to not try to hide our feelings with each other, always be real. That way we can figure out the emotions before it turns into a fight." Cruella was silent. 

After a long cuddle Cruella finally said "Fine. But please don't tell anyone what I tell you, it's already hard enough." "I won't, but you should know that everyone in this household is here for you." "Ok, But I still don't want to tell them about my feelings" "you shouldn't be ashamed" "JASPER PLEASE-" "Ok, I won't I wasn't going to anyway, sorry." "It's ok....are we good?" "Yeah, we will be ok." Cruella leaned up and kissed him, Jasper blushed, though immediately kissed her back. They kissed for awhile, and snugged against each other. "I love you" Jasper whispered, Cruella got up and started doing a happy dance, "why are you dancing, didn't I tell you that I love you yesterday?" "NOPE! You just kissed me and it was amazing. I LOVE YOU TOO now come dance with me." Jasper put one of their favourite songs on the record played and they danced together for hours.
