Chapter 25
Alex senses my discomfort and panic. He puts his left hand over my right before he slides his right hand into his jacket, he retrieves two masks. They were beautiful; it was black with a mix of gold and fuchsia patterns on the front. There was a golden trim outlining the mask and the eye area. It had a small broach on the middle of the right side of the mask, it was gold with a fuchsia gem in the centre. (Based on the one on the side)
He hands the mask to me; his was identical, except his broach thing was on the middle of the left side of his mask. I get out of the car and Alex follows before he places his arm on the small of my back and guides me into the venue. We hand the security guy our tickets before we step into the beautifully designed scene with our masks on.
The venue definitely matched the theme. It was elegant and classy. The main colour that appeared was gold, however due to the dimmed lights you couldn’t really see any other colours. There were big long golden draped curtains that covered the windows and walls. The tables were round and had a white tablecloth over it. The centrepiece on each of the many tables there was of a glass vase with a handful of beautiful flowers.
Alex guides me to a table, which Teddy, Robin and Brooke were sitting on, with their dates. They all looked beautiful and happy. We sit at the table and compliment each other, we talk and we laugh. The atmosphere and ambiance was soft and positive, happy and filled with joy.
As I was talking to Brooke about general stuff, from the corner of my eye I see Alex staring at me, it triggered a smile to my face. He must’ve saw and smiled before sliding his hand into mine he then turned to his other side to talk to Teddy’s date; Jordan. He runs his thumb over the top of my hand. It felt soft and comforting.
Once we had eaten, the soft music that was playing in the background had changed to a more upbeat song, signalling that everyone should get up and start dancing. Everyone on the table gets up, Alex holds my hand and takes me to the centre of the room, where there was space to dance.
After a few upbeat songs of dancing my feet start to hurt.
“Babe, my feet hurt, can we sit down?” I ask.
“Sure.” Alex replies before walking with me back to the table.
We sit and watch people dance.
“I’m happy.” Alex states.
“Me too.”
“You make me happy.”
“You do too.” I say with a big smile.
“When the slower songs come on, can we dance?” He asks.
“Ermm, if my feet don’t still hurt then sure.”
He gives me a smile in return before he entwines his fingers into mine and places a kiss on my cheek.
“The firework display will be in ten minutes out back.” The DJ announces over the mic.
“We should go now, to get good seats, well standing spots.” I say to Alex.
We both get up and walk through the room to the side with the doors. We push them open and walk into the cold night. The back of the venue was covered in grass, but it was like a hill, there were steps on opposite sides to go to the bottom, where the audience would be the closest to the firework display. Right in front of us was a path to go to a sort of band stand. It was higher than where the fireworks would start from, but closer to the sky, where the fireworks will be. I linked my arm into Alex’s as we walk down the path to get the best spaces.
I shiver as the cold wind blows over us. Alex unlinks his arm from mine and takes off his jacket then helps me slide into it. The slower songs could be heard from the hall. ‘I’m Yours’ by ‘Jason Mraz’ was playing. Alex wraps his arm around my waist whilst I wrap my own around his neck.
Look into your heart and you’ll find love, love, love, love.
Listen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing, we’re just one big family,
And it’s our God-forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved.
We dance slowly as we listen to the music. Alex quietly sings along with the song whilst swaying with me.
Oh, I’m yours,
Oh, I’m yours,
Oh, oh,
Baby, do you believe, I’m yours?
You best believe, you best believe, I’m yours.
The song comes to an end as I stare into Alex’s warm eyes. The words he sang made it feel like he was saying them words to me.
“I’m yours.” He repeats quietly whilst looking into my eyes. The gorgeous golden specks appear.
“Mila, you’re beautiful. Over the time I’ve known you; you have always been beautiful and always will be. You’re perfect. I don’t know… I don’t know how to say this… I-I-I’m falling for you. Actually, I’ve fallen for you. Mila King, I love you.”
I tear escapes from my eyes as I smile, “I love you too.”
Alex wipes my tear before a firework erupts in the sky. Bright colours fill the black night sky. It looked beautiful. I felt happy.
I love Alex and he loves me. Another tear escapes from my eye as I replay his words in my head.
Mila King, I love you.
This is my life and right now, it is perfect.
THE END

Author’s Note: So yeah, this is the end. I’m sorry that the chapter isn’t very long and wasn’t very humorous but yeah. What’s done is done. I was thinking about bring another character in or someone we already know to create some sort of impact. But I thought against it because I just wanted to end the story, I felt like it was dragging on too much.
I would like thank everyone who read the story, voted and got the total reads to a decent number. I mean, it’s not much, but everything starts from something little. Maybe if I was to share it on the clubs and stuff then it would get higher, but I always seem to forget. It would be great if you could share it some way or another, I would definitely feel privileged if you were to do so.
Basically, I’ve been reading the ‘After’ books and I was thinking about writing my own Harry Styles fan-fiction sort of thing. I’ve had some thoughts to go with it and have written a few chapters but I haven’t made a blurb. I’ll make some announcement or another for everyone to check it out.
Thank you for reading my story and I’m sorry that the author’s note was so long.
I LOVE YOU GUYS!
