[Chapter 17]

(Flaire)

At first we didn't notice the dust and dirt around this ballroom. So, we had to clean. After that, we took all the lying things to the storage room that has no use for this event. We placed streamers in the ceiling after that. That was all we did on the second day.

On the third day, we took and placed tables and chairs around the ballroom. We left a big space for dancing and whatsoever. For the last thing we did that day, we placed the disco ball on the center of the ceiling.

From the fourth day. We were almost done. We took and borrowed wirings and arranged the tech we are going to use. We dressed the table with blue, white and pink pieces of cloth. The chairs were white and violet with ribbon tide at the back.

Today is the fifth day. We tried and tested everything. After that...we didn't know what to do.

"What now?" I asked Ethan who just finished testing the lights, the mic and the sounds.

"We got nothing left to do, everythings arranged for tomorrow." He explained. I looked around and I was satisfied to the outcome of our hardwork. Hardwork was paid with smiles.

"oh, ok"I replied. We both walked outside of the ballroom. We tested the lights outside the garden and it was beautiful.

"Wanna go somewhere?" Ethan asked who just finished testing and arranging a few things. I looked at him and smiled.

"Like where?" I asked. "I don't know, maybe somewhere fun?" I nodded.

"Well how about the arcade in the mall?" I asked. He nodded holding his jaw. -_- What is he doing? He looks like an old professor doing that kind of gesture.

"Stop that" I said as I held his hand down. He chuckled then quickly grabbed my wrist.

"Oh, hey! Let go." I said calmly.

"Wanna go to the arcade right?"

"Yeah" I said looking straightly at him. "Then let's go" He said as he dragged me to his motorcycle.

***

As we were inside the arcade, my feet brought me to the grabbing hook. Where you grab your prices, that is really impossible because the screws are always loose.

"You want the teddy bear?" My thoughts were interrupted when he called.

"Oh, no. Not really, besides...those are just for kids." I reasoned, leaving the place. >.< But I badly want it.

I walked outside the arcade and searched for a food stand. I found one not far and decided to eat first before playing there. Its hard to play with an empty stomach right?

So I bought two ice cream. Yeah, it's an ice cream stand.

"Here you go miss" The employee said whole handing me the two choco flavored ice cream. I didn't know what's his favorite ice cream flavor. So I made my own suggestion for him.

I turned around and I almost drop the ice cream I was both holding in my arms when I saw Ethan infront of me.

My chocolate chip!. His face was just 3 inch away! >.< I quickly stepped back but to my memory, I haven't left the stand yet. So I have no space to take a step backwards.

He looked at me then to the ice cream I was holding. "Who looks like a kid now?" He said while chuckling. He backed up and I was relieved to know that his face wasn't that close anymore.

It took me a couple of seconds to get what he said. "What? I'm not a kid! Everyone eats ice cream!" I complained. He did not just call me a kid.

"Get this, nobody eats an ice cream as plain as that. Kids now are fancy with flavors. Then your..." After that, he laughed.

I wanted to fight back but there's no way I could punch him. Not that I was carrying this precious ice cream of mine.

"Stop complaining about the flavor and just eat this." I said as I placed the ice cream infront of his face. He stopped laughing when he realized that the ice cream was about to mess up his face.

"Fine, here" He took the ice cream and threw me a...teddy bear? I caught it and I realized that it was the teddy bear I was staring at earlier.

"*.* Kyaaaaaahhhhh~~~~ It's so cute!" I said as I hugged it. I heard him laugh.

"Now that's what I call pretending *laugh*" I rolled my eyes and ate the ice cream. After that, I walked inside the arcade again.

The first thing I did was sing. There's a karaoke room for that. Locked and secured so nobody will hear your broken voice. I'm not good at singing but I wanted to try. I never tried it anyway.

I opened the door as I carried the stuffed toy. I went inside and searched for a song in the songbook.

The first song I chose was I've fallen for you by Jamie Rivera. As I clicked the song number, Ethan entered the room. I took my sit and gave him the mic.

"Wait, I'm singing?" I glared at him.

"Alright alright" Ethan said. That's what he'll get if he ever try to pick on me again.

"What is this some feeling, I just can't explain. When your near, I'm just not the same.

I tried to hide it, tried not to show it.
It's crazy, how could it be?

I've fallen for you~~~
Finally, my heart gave in~~~

and I'm falling inlove~~~
I finally know, how it feels~~~"

The way he sang the song...He put the heart into it.
