Opening the first day on my advent calendar, I took out the chocolate. Christmas was only around the corner and I was planning to spend Christmas with my parents, only thirteen more days till I left school for Christmas. I sat in Miss Griff's music torture, the school production of Swan Lake was in a week, and Lindsy was the perfect swan queen, of course. I was the pianist, shoved in a corner to do all the hard work and be forgotten about. "Every ear will be hearing you Diana, the lord mayor will be hearing you, " Miss Griffs circled the piano, "This can be our breakthrough, we will be on the cover of magazines," I started doodling on the back of my hand, bored out of my mind. "Diana! " Miss Griffs snatched the pen out of my hand, "Focus! What did I just say? " "Don't know? " I wasn't listening to her rubbish talk. "I said, "before Miss Griffs could finish her sentence I zoned out, thinking about anything that wasn't music. *** Finally, the end of the lesson came, I thought about going to Flo, but I didn't feel like sitting with her. Once again I found myself walking to Mr. Murphy's class, he was teaching when I walked in, is I went to the back of the classroom, watching him teach he was so perfect. So kind and he was all mine, he filled me up with a forbidden joy. After the class had all left he came to me, hugging me tightly. "How's your day been? " I asked, leaning back in his arms to look at him. "It's been good, are you ready for tonight? " he said. "Fuck, " I murmured, I completely forgot we were going for dinner with his ex-wife. "You forgot, didn't you? " his facial expression quickly changed. "No, I didn't, I just haven't got anything nice to wear, " I put my hand on his cheek comforting him. "OK, I will pick you up after school, you can come to my house to get ready, " he pushed my hair behind my ear. "Your house? " I had never been to Cillian's house before, in fact, we had hardly been alone outside of school since the school trip. "Yes, my house, " he smiled, "Does it shock you that I don't live in school? " "a bit, " I giggled, wrapping my legs around him, "I better go and find a dress, " I said picking up my bag. "three pm, front entrance! " he shouted as I walked out the door. *** "FLO! Flo! " I ran after Flo in the corridor. "Oh hey Di! " she smiled hugging me, "Are you alright? " "Yeah, don't suppose you have any nice dresses that I could borrow?" "I have the dress from Lindsy's party. You know from the start of the year? " Flo began walking towards the dorm, "Why do you need it? " "I have a date, " I smiled into my jumper, blushing, "I need something to wear, " "A date? What's his name? Do I know him? " Flo opened the door to the dorm, walking to her wardrobe. "He isn't from around here, " I smiled lying down on my bed. "Ooo foreign? " laughed Flo, she placed the black satin dress on my bunk, it was gorgeous shimmering in the fluorescent lights. "Yeah, " I lied running my hands down the dress. "Do you need any hair things? Or make-up? " she dumped a bag of hair scrunchies and make-up on my bed. Rumaging through it I took an eyeshadow pallet and red lipstick." keep it, honestly that lipstick looks awfully on me, " Flo began putting the stuff back in her bag. "aw thank you, Flo, " I quickly hugged her before placing the stuff in my bag. *** December 1st, 3.02 pm Cillian and I were walking to his car, me with my hood up hoping nobody was watching me. "I thought your wife was in Ireland? " I said, as he unlocked his car. "No, she's only over here for a business meeting in London, " he said, opening the car door for me. "is it hard? Not seeing her or your kids, " I said, putting my seatbelt on. "Very, but you make me worthwhile, " he placed a hand on my thigh, as we drove to his house. He didn't even move his hand to change gears, I loved him with all my heart. After fifteen minutes his car parked outside a block of flats on the outskirts of the local town. I followed him into the flat, he held my hand as we walked up a dingy, dark block of stairs. "The lift is always broken, " he laughed. We got to the fifth floor, he opened the door to his cosy flat. His flat had four rooms, a small yellow kitchen, a dimly lit bathroom, a small bedroom and a cosy living room. The living room had a red couch, with a small TV surrounded by bookcases and movie posters. A cosy fluffy rug covered the cold hard floor, with a large desk at the back of the room filled with paper and books. "It's small but it works, " Cillian dropped my bags on the floor, "You're probably not used to houses like this," "You don't know anything, " I laughed, "I grew up in a flat a lot like this, just messier, " "I don't believe it, you're a little miss perfect, " he sat down on the red couch. "Bet, " I said laughing. I picked up my bags and went into his room to get changed. His room had a double bed, with a pastel green cover. He had a plain wardrobe and a tall mirror. The net curtains flapped in the wind due to the windows being opened. Looking out of the window there was a view of the town's skyline and park. Dropping my clothes on his bed, I wiggled into Flo's dress. "Cillian! " I shouted through to the living room, "Can you zip my dress up? " "of course, " he gently brushed his hands along my back, pulling my hair out of the way and zipping it up, "Gosh, " he paused as I turned around to face him, "You look stunning Diana, " "I'm not done yet, " I blushed taking the make-up out of my bag. "You don't need that, " he said, snatching the lipstick from my hands and putting it on the dresser, "You are dead stunning, " "Shut up! " I laughed, gently pushing him. "Can you not take a compliment? " he looked into my eyes. "Say it again, " I looked back into his icy blue eyes. "Can you not take-" "No, no, " I cut him off halfway through his sentence, " the dead stunning thing. " "You are the most beautiful, drop dead in my grave stunningly gorgeous girl I have ever seen, I love you, " I placed my head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat. "Again, " I giggled into his chest. "Again? I love you, " he held my head tightly, "I love you, " "Are you sure? " I teased, wrapping my leg around his knees, " "I am sure, " he picked me up, holding me by the top of my legs. "Hm, better not be falling back for the ex-wife tonight, " "I would never, " he kissed my neck, "Never in a million years, "
