I Always Knew

Chapter 5: Words of Sara- Our Question

As I hear Will's room door creak open I lifted my head up from my brightly lit up phone. I looked down again to the matte brown laced ankle boot that was stepping outside the door. As he moved out I keep looking farther and farther up. He was wearing a pair of dark blue jeans and a brown belt. A simple v-neck t-shirt and a black leather jacket that made his blue eyes seem even bluer like he had sapphire jewels shining in his eyes. He had on a black beanie that had the same effect and his hands were fidgeting with his quiff in a nervous manner, as he stepped out of the room.

"Wow, you are actually on time." I joked.

He laughed and stuck his tongue out at me.

I laughed back at him. I began to start to push myself off the floor without flashing anything to Will. He could see that I'm struggling so he gave me his hand to help me up. I take it with a grateful smile.

"My lady," He said holding out his elbow for me to grab on.

I wrapped my arms around his. It made me feel safe a gleeful that I was actually touching him. We walked down the hall like we had previously done about and hour ago. Silent, completely silent. It feels like we want to say everything but we just couldn't. He was slightly transparent so I could see him but I still see through him. We stepped down the stairs from the porch and he turned completely opaque.

I turned to him stunned. "How did you do that? And why did you do that?" I asked in shock.

"Oh, simple, spell we learn when we are young. I do it because it is ghosts law to do it when you are outside in the human world." He answered quickly.

"Ah, that makes sense," I added.

We continued to walk in silence to the pond. When we got there Will stepped in front of me.

"Okay." He smiled. "I need you to close your eyes." He insisted.

"Okay, as long as you don't push me into the pond to get back at me for scaring you." I giggled.

"Never in a million years, when you're looking as beautiful as you are tonight." He beamed.

I started to blush. Did he just call me beautiful? Yes, I think he did. I smiled and closed my eyes. I felt him take my arm again and pull me to the left up a small hill. I knew where we were headed. Shortly after, we stopped.

" Whatever you do don't open your eyes!" Will demanded.

"Eyes are locked until you unlock them with your words," I reported.

I felt his leave my side and he stood right in front of me.

"Okay," He began. "Only rule is you have to look me in the eye when I tell you to open your eyes."

"Deal." I agreed.

"Okay, Open you eyes." He rejoiced.

I did as he told me. Will stood directly in front of me. I stared him in the eye, not blinking once.

"Are you going to show me the surprise?" I asked

"As soon as we finish this staring contest." He laughed which made me laugh too and we both blinked from laughing so hard.

"Sara, I present you with a night under the gazebo." He sang. "With yours truly." He pointed at his face as he slid out of the way so I could see.

The wooden floor was covered with and pillows nicely placed around the area of the circle. Above hung fairy lights and lanterns. The light glowed perfectly on the pillows and blankets. Will run over to the CD player in the back and It started to play classical piano music. Songs I have never heard leaked through the speakers. The pianist was wonderful. It was so lovely and romantic.

"Ahem," Will cleared his throat broke the magical spell I was in. "Our waiters, Anne and Marie. Also known as my older sisters." He added

I curtsied in there cute waiters outfits. Will whispered something to them and the nodded curtsied again and then walked back to the house.

"Well, are you just gonna keep standing there." He joked

I sat down on some pillows and he sat right next to me with the knee next to me down and his other bent into his chest.

"So do you like it?" He asked breaking the silence.

"Like it are you kidding me?" I saw his smile drop. " I love it!" I exclaimed.

I leaned over to hug him and he hugged me back. It felt nice to feel his touch again. It was a nice hug one that was warm and loving.

"Good." He smiled. "My sisters are making our dinner. So we can talk in the mean time." He remarked.

I nodded. We remained silent for so much of this day so far.

"I have and idea." He finally broke the silence.

" I hope it's just as good as this one," I added with a bright smile on my face.

He blushed.

"Almost," He continued " While we wait for dinner let's play Q&A to get to know each other."

"That's a great idea!" I smirked.

I started to get comfy. I laid a pillow on his knee and followed my head on his knee as well looking up at his bright blue brilliant eyes. He looked down at me and smiled. This gave me butterfly's in my stomach and I could feel the blush rushing into my cheeks. I smiled back dimples and all. The questions were pretty normal when you're getting to know someone. What's your favorite color? BlueTell me about your family. When's your birthday? How old are you? 18. What's your favorite thing to do? Read. Do you like school? It depends. What class is your favorite? Performing Arts. What do you want to do as a career? Marine Biology.

Back and forth for a good half an hour but who was keeping track of time. I kept getting lost in his beautiful blue eyes and his wonderful words that came out of his perfect lips.

" I have a question, Sara" Will stated. "Well ...um... you see... um I-I was wondering if you had a boyfriend?" Will managed to stutter works out.

My head was still on Will's knee and when he looked at me after he his question I had to look away because I was blushing so hard I tried to hide it from him even though I knew he could still see the apples of my cheeks flushing with red. I looked back into his eyes after I composed the butterflies in my stomach.

"To answer that I need you to do something for me." I marveled.

"Anything." He answered with a big grin on his face.

"Close your eyes," I smiled. " It's my turn to surprise you."

Will did as I told him to. He closed his eyes and stopped smiling. I grabbed the side of his head with both of my hands and gently pulled it towards me. I raised my head and touches his soft smooth lips with mine. And suddenly my eyes were closed too. We pulled apart and my butterflies came back.

"Does that answer your question?" I giggled.

"I think it does." He beamed.

And I think it answered my question too.
