Chapter 13

As soon as we started dancing, I could feel the gaze of all these jealous girls on me. It was a little embarrassing.

"Something wrong? " Blake asked me what I looked at him.

"They look at me as if they wanted to tear me apart with their bare hands. " I nodded my head towards some of the girls.

Bellamy laughed.

"Is it so amusing to you? They want to kill me. " I looked into his eyes and raised my eyebrows.

"Don't worry, princess. " Brunet also looked me in the eye. "I'll protect you from them. And if the need arises, I will tear them apart. " He smiled, which I reciprocated. "Simply... Don't pay attention to them. " Added.

We danced with slower music, so it seems to have further reinforced the jealousy of those girls.

"Easier to say, harder to do. " I sighed.

Brunet looked at me again and then moved me even closer to him, to which I was surprised.

He put my hands around his shoulders and neck, and he wrapped me at the waist. He smiled when I looked at him with a question mark.

"Hug me, princess. " He whispered in my ear. "Close your eyes and let yourself be carried away by the music. "

I blinked several times.

Man snuggled into my neck, and I snuggled into his arm a little hesitantly. After a while, however, I relaxed, closed my eyes and let myself be carried away by the rhythm of the music.

It worked because I didn't think about those girls anymore. The feeling that accompanied me was very nice. I could dance with him like that all the time.

I sighed softly as my thoughts went back to Raven.

"What is bothering you this time? " Blake asked and looked into my eyes. "Are they still looking like that? " I smiled at this question.

"Yes, but that's not the point this time. " I replied.

Talking further, we didn't stop dancing.

"It's about... "

"Raven? " He guessed.

"Yes..." I looked him in the eye again. "I'm just worried about her... And what if it doesn't work out and we can't collect that money? What then? "

"We'll make it, you'll see, princess. You can't lose faith, you said it yourself."

"Yes, but... " A tear rolled in my eye. "I'm scared, Bell..." I whispered, still looking into his eyes. "I'm terribly scared... " A tear rolled down my cheek.

"I know." Brunet wiped away my tear. "This is normal. After all, she's your friend and you don't want to lose her. "

"I don't think I can survive these emotions... "

"You? " Blake said with a slight smile. "You went up to the roof with the intention of jumping off it and you didn't feel any fear. You have mastered all emotions and... You gave up the jump to help me... And this... Is this supposed to beat you? You have overcome the "year of loneliness". I don't believe you couldn't do it. I know you'll... I believe in you. "

I looked at boy with tears in my eyes, but this time I didn't let them swim out. Instead, I pulled Blake closer together and hugged him tightly.

"Thanks, Bell." I whispered. "I don't know what I would 've done without you. It's good that you're here. "

"And I always will be, princess. " Added, reciprocating the hug.

Later, we had to listen to a few minutes' speech by one of the organizers of this event. He was very fond of Raven and helping her. I was grateful to him for that.
