Russian roulette || James Earl Of Wessex

| WALTZ |

Isabella

James and i had just kissed. I kissed james. James kissed me. I couldn't believe it.

We sat in silence as we ate our cake. I couldn't even think about anything. I was just staring at my half-eaten plate.

I suddenly heard the classical waltz music start to play. James looked up from his plate. His face slightly pink.

"Want to dance?" James asked as he put his hand out. I stood there for a minute taking everything in. I slowly placed my hand in is as he took me towards the dance floor.

I placed my left hand on his shoulder as he took my right hand with his left. His remaining hand on my waist.

We danced along with the music, without breaking eye contact.

Apart of me was still in shock. I didn't know James had felt that way about me. I never like to admit my feelings towards someone but maybe now I'm finally ready to admit them. Maybe I should tell James how I feel.

The worst part of this all is that James was cool about this. He didn't seem nervous at all. It seems like he's been planning on doing this. How long has he had these feelings?

James was holding my waist tightly. He pulled my closer and bent over towards my ear.

"Are you enjoying this?" He asked softly.

"Yeah I am, thanks James" I replied

"Did you enjoy the kiss?"

I felt goosebumps rise on my skin.

"Yes James, why did you kiss me?"

"Why not?" He replied

I slightly smiled at him as we continued to dance. The music got faster and we had to pick up the pace. This was another reason why I didn't like the waltz. It was too fast for me.

We decided to stop dancing once it was too fast to keep up.

"Good Lord, I don't know how people can do this dance" I said sitting down.

~~~

It was late and the party was now over. I was saying goodbye to a few guests with my family like i normally do. It's become a routine for me.

James and his family came to say goodbye. I realized that after this night, I probably won't see James till my father's coronation. And I'll probably barely see him that day.

James came right towards me and pulled me into a tight hug. "Call me whenever okay?" He whispered to me.

"I will, I'll miss you" I said to him

He kissed the top of my head. Feeling his warm body up against mine sent me a comforting feeling.

He pulled out of the hug and looked at me before leaving.

I stood at the door way watching him get in his car and drive away. I'm going to miss him. I'm going to miss the kiss he gave me. I wish I gave him a goodbye kiss.

| okay so this is a short chapter please forgive me🙏 but I'll make more soon. Let me know what you guys think.
