Starstruck (Part 6)

"So what are you then? A spirit, demon? Oh please don't say you're a demon."

"He-heh, No I'm not a spirit or a demon."

"Then what are you?"

"Well I'm a goddess of the sort.."

"What do you mean by "of the sort" I say with a confused look.

"Nothing.." The voice...well her voice sounded nervous in a way 

"Okay well can I see you then?"

"Um… I don't know.."

"So is that a yes?"

"I suppose."

"Cool" I take a seat at my desk waiting for her to appear. I started to get a little excited, I could only imagine what and then the feeling of butterflies in my stomach started. I was confused of why I was feeling this way, but before I could work it out a silhouette of a female materialized before me. I was in shock. She looked to be about my age. She had long black hair that was put up into 2 high ponytails with 2 strips of pink hair that framed her face. She had pale skin and reddish pink eyes. The kimono she wore had an elegant design of pink and red flowers with accents of gold. I stayed starstruck at her beauty.

"Why are you staring at me like that?.." When I snapped out of my gaze I saw she had a confused look.

"Oh-uh you just surprised me, that's all." I let out a nervous laugh

"Ok.." I could tell she wasn't fooled by my dumb excuse.

"Uh..Well you don't look like a demon, so that's good." I say smiling nervously.

"Yes." I get the urge to ask her more questions, so I do. I needed to know more...I looked at her. Her back was to me as she wandered through my studio. I looked away when she turned back to face me again. 

"You're an amazing artist William."

"Uh T-thank you." I replied blushing. I noticed her smirk after I thanked her.

"What?" I say. "Oh nothing." She replied as her smirked turned more into a smile. She then goes back to looking a round my studio. 

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Of course." I hesitate before asking her 

"Uh.. Why me?" 

She looked confused. "What do you mean?"

"Why did you choose me to put through all that?" I put my hands in my lap and started to pick at my nails. I was nervous of her answer yet I was frustrated with how long she was taking to answer my question. She could say anything. I just hope it wasn't a bad reason.

"Well I didn't do that to you.. That was all you." She said bluntly. 

"What?!" I stood up as my frustration turned into anger. "What do you mean I did that shit to myself. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW I GOT TO THAT FUCKKNG PLACE!" 

"Woah, calm down buddy no need to freak out" she answered with a calm voice. 

"HOW CAN I CALM DOWN!? UGH!" I walk out of my studio and head home pissed off.

~~~~~Time Skip~~~~~

By the time I made it to my room I was calmer. I flopped onto my bed and layed there for a while."*Sigh* I probably should have yelled at her. She could kill me." Then I snapped to reality and soon my calm was flooded with panic. *She actually could kill me..* I put a pillow over my face. "Stupid, stupid, stupid!" I keep the pillow over my face. The pillow started to get soaked, I then realized I' m crying. "I'm an idiot."

"I could kill you, but I don't want you." 

I quickly sat up. The pillow falls to my lap, and I look around to see her sitting next to me. "W-ha.." Before I could continue she shushed me. We sat in silence for a while till she broke the silence. "Why are you crying?" She tilted her head out of curiosity it seemed. I looked into the ruby-like eyes of hers. In her eyes I could see hints of pity. 

"I-I don't know.." My eyes flooded with tears. The tears started to make their way down my cheeks. Then out of nowhere she cups my face between both of her hands. As she held my face I felt the warmth of her hands on my cheeks.

 I felt  her wipe away my tears with the thumb. I stared into her as she started into more. I could see a faint smile on her face. It wasn't happy, it looked more comforting. After a while she got closer. She kept getting closer… I looked like she was going to kiss me but before she did she disappeared. 

I stayed in the same position for a while. I was confused. "Was she going to… kiss me?"
