My Story (A Zak Bagans Romance) UNDER RE-WRITING FOR A WHILE

Chapter 27

I smiled and but my lip.

"He said he loved me." I said to myself. It obviously showed on my face. I hummed a love song, and pranced up the stairs. I bet me maids are thinking, "She's gone mad." Well. I don't care. I'm in love.

I open the door to my room, and close it behind me. I smiled so big, my face started to go numb. Like when you have laid on your hand for so long.

I looked out the window, and sighed. Tonight was a full moon. The whole household was asleep. So I had to be quiet. Then I hear a knock on my door. "Come in." I said in a hushed quiet tone of voice. My nurse carefully opened the door, and closed it. "You have arrived early. I thought that you would arrive home late. But you are a few minutes passed your curfew. But we'll keep that between us." she said. I nodded my head. But still, all I could ever think about, was Zak saying. "I love you." To me. That made me so happy, I blushed. My maid did notice, but she said nothing.

"Come on child, let's get you to bed." she said. She helped me take off my dress, and I changed into my nightgown. My nurse putted my hair in a braid. While I was sitting at my mirror stand, I opened the drawer, and took out my journal

April 25, 1662

Dear Journal,

Tonight was a wonderful night. I went to the opera tonight, and I saw a familiar face. That's right. I saw Mr. Bagans. He had asked a man to tell me to come and see him after the performance was over. Without my nurse. I accepted the request. After the performance ended, the man escorted me, into Mr. Bagan's booth. I sat right next to him. But we only talked for a short period of time. Then, as Mr. Bagans escorted me home by his carriage, he asked the driver to give us a few minutes alone. I was quite scared, but I held my ground to see what he had to say. Then he came close to me, and he looked me deep into my eyes. So many emotions were going through my head, and body.

Then, he kissed me. On the lips. Oh how I wanted more. Oh. Listen to me. I'm getting out of my way into all of this. But anyways, back too what I was saying. He kissed me. Mr. Bagans kissed me. Then he pulled away and looked at me. Then he said what I wanted to hear my whole time from the first day I have met him. He pulled me away, and looked at me. Then he said, "I love you." My heart melted. Then we had to say goodnight. But I didn't want to say goodnight. Then he said. "I want to make you mine." I think that is a good thing.

Oh I don't know when we will meet again, but I hope it is soon. I can't wait to see him again. Maybe I will go horseback ridding with him.

Well. It is off to bed for me. I am very exhausted from all of this. Goodnight. Goodnight.

Sincerely yours,

Shelby

I put my journal back in the little drawer, and closed it. I got out of my seat, and went to bed. My nurse gathered the heavy bed sheets, and covered me with them. "Goodnight love." she said. She smiled. My nurse always made me happy. "Goodnight." I said to her. I smiled back at her. She always was there for me, just like a second mother when a mother isn't there. My nurse tucked the sides of the sheets of the bed super tight. Then she walked towards the door. She closed the door behind her. she was gone.

I am now alone. Alone in the dark of night in my bed, in my bedroom. I just had one problem. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't sleep. "He said 'I love you' ." I played that over and over in my head. Then My eyes grew heavy. then, I drifted slowly to sleep. Into a happy, calm, and lifeless sleep.
