Forbidden Love

~chapter 11~

Oh no. No no no no no no. This can't be happening. I wasn't expecting to see her this soon after the kiss. I'm not ready to face her yet.

Ok ok. Calm down Seraphine. Maybe if I just stay quiet and wait it out, she won't wake up and someone will come back for me and let me out so that this ends and then I won't have to confront her yet.

I started to slowly back away from her sleeping form, watching her chest slowly rise and fall. That was a mistake. When taking my next step back, I tripped over a pile of blankets causing me to crash into the stacked jars of preserved food.

Octavia jerked up from the sound and started scanning the room looking ready for a fight. When she locked eyes with my disoriented ones, I noticed how she immediately relaxed. "Seraphine? What are you doing in here? How did you even find this place?"

"U-um well..." geez why am I so nervous? I hope she can't notice the blush forming on my cheeks.

"Hold on, let me help you up first." She quickly got up from where she sat and made her way over to me. When she stood I had time to get a better look of her. She was wearing a deep red dress that reminded me of fresh blood from a wound. She made it look so elegant.

I slowly raked my eyes up her figure, noticing how the dress fit her perfecting. When my eyes got higher i saw how her breast were showing quite a bit making me blush even more from looking.

"Sera..."

I continued looking her over till I made it to her lips. They were glossed and looked so plump and soft. It made me wonder what it would be like to kiss her again.

"Seraphine!!"

"Huh what?"

"Are you going to take my hand? Or are you going to keep sitting there staring at me?"

I looked away and blushes at her comment. Was I really that obvious?

I quickly took her hand and she helped me to my feet. She then pulled me over to the couch she was originally sleeping on. She let go of my hand and sat down. I stood there awkwardly not sure of what to do.

When she noticed I haven't sat down yet, she pat the spot next to her, gesturing for me to sit.

Getting closer, I sat next to her leaving a decent amount of space between us. We sat there in silence for several minutes. A few times I glanced over at her to see she was spaced out, probably raking her mind for whatever she had to say. When I wasn't looking at her I was staring at my hands as they fiddled with my dress.

"So," her sudden break of the silence cause me to jump slightly. I looked up at her to meet her beautiful deep brown eyes.

"Do you mind explaining what you are even doing in here? There's no way you would have found this place because I'm sure my brother hasn't told you about these rooms."

"Well me and Oliver were walking together like we usually do.." I noticed a frown form on her face at my words. "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

"No no it's not that. Just continue your explanation."

"Ok.. well not too long into the walk we heard screams and gunshots coming from around a side entrance I think. A guard came running around the corner shortly after that telling Oliver that his father needed him immediately and for me to be escorted to a panic room."

"Did that guard happen to say what was happening?"

"I'm pretty sure he said that rebels were attacking the palace."

"What?! Why didn't you say that sooner?!" She quickly got from next to me, taking the warm she gave me with her. She headed towards the door, pushed in a part of the wall, and the door opened.

"Stay here, someone will come get you when it's safe." She dashed out and the door quickly closed behind her before I got to disagree.

And now I'm all alone.

I hope she's going to be ok.. and I hope she doesn't forget that I'm in here.
