A Journey From Germany 2

Chapter 13

Daniel chuckled and laid downed, pillowing his head in his hands. I rested my head on his chest "No need to apologise, I don't mind your 'rambling', it shows your passion, and I doubt I could bring myself to stop you, even if I tried" Daniel said, moving one of his hands to my head, stroking my hair until we both went to sleep.

I woke up the next morning and Daniel was still asleep. I got changed into a basic green dress and some short heels like I wore in Germany and started to make my way downstairs. I went to the ice box and grabbed some potatoes to make some potato pancakes.

Daniel must've come down while I was cooking quietly. I placed it down and we started eating. We ate and made some small talk. Once we finished Daniel quickly kissed me before going outside. Only a minute later I was about to go upstairs when I noticed the mail. I grabbed the mail, one was a Newpaper from The Times, I assumed was for Daniel. I also saw a letter addressed to me.

To Gretchen Whitestone,
47 Shepherdess Walk
From Queen Marys University

I knew what it was the letter saying if I got in. I placed it down and jogged outside to Daniel, hoping to catch him. I hoped my hair was somewhat respectable since I hadn't brushed it yet, although since it was just past my jawline it probably wasn't that knotty.

I did my best to jog in my heels before I caught up with Daniel, I called out to him, he turned around, shocked to see me. He rushed to me "What are you doing here?" He asked.

"I got the letter, I haven't opened it yet" I said.
Daniels eyes widened, he grabbed my wrist, and we went back to the house. Daniel closed the door and I rushed to the letter and gave it to him "Aren't you going to open it?" He asked.

I shook my head "I'm scared to see it, can you tell me if I got in?" I said, I closed my eyes.
Daniel opened the letter "Gretchen Whitestone, we are proud to inform you that you have been accepted into Queen Marys University!" Daniel said. I opened my eyes and Daniel had a smile on his face. I went to him and read the letter, it was there. I smiled and placed it down and hugged Daniel, he hugged me back, lifting me up a little bit and spinning me around. We smashed our lips together before pulling back.

"How about we go to a restaurant to celebrate it, or do we tell the Whitestones when we visit, and that's the celebration" Daniel suggested.
"We tell the Whitestones, now you should get to work before you end up being late" I said before leading him to the door, as we got to the door, I kissed him again before he walked out.

Time skip 29th of July

I got just gotten home and wanted to collapse onto my bed. I laid on the bed and slipped my heals off, feeling the blood return to my feet. I suddenly sat up, realising that I didn't see Daniel and the door was unlocked. I felt a stream of panic flow over me "Daniel!?" I called, seeing if he was somewhere in the house.

"Yeah?" I heard Daniels voice from the bathroom.
I felt my heart slow down "thanks goodness" I muttered under my breath "Just seeing if you were here, the door was unlocked, and I didn't know where you were" I said.
"Must've given you a scare" Daniel laughed.

I got up and got changed, I would've taken a bath, but Daniel was having one, and we leave almost as soon as he finished his bath. I put on a pale-yellow blouse that had a bit of a low cut with little cleavage showing, but not enough to be considered indecent. I matched it with a dark faded lilac skirt that goes just pass my knees. I got pale pink knitted cardigan that I had tied a bow with the strings on the collar. The collar was slightly low cut and showed my collar bone. I put on some heels and waited for Daniel to finish his bath.
