Chapter fourteen- First date in an unexpected place part one ( unedited)
Charlies POV
It has been a couple of days since Alex has basically put claim to me; I don’t mind but I am not going to let him know that because I haven’t even been on a date with him. Plus my Cora is have a field day with his dragon Alec. It’s like she enjoys pushing his buttons not that I don’t enjoy pushing Alex buttons.
We are still at Candy’s place because it’s the safest place for me to be while I learn to control my emotions plus it’s highly unlikely that my Uncle would look for me here. It’s funny because Cora and I are almost exactly alike she knows the side of me that I haven’t been able to let free in a long time. It’s good to finally be able to start being me even if it is a slow process not that I mind because I have the time in the world.
I decided to go for a walk and do something I haven’t done in a very long time, something that helps me release stress. So here I am dancing around in a open filed in the middle of the bush. I know what you’re thinking I didn’t know that fat girls that would rather eat then be social could dance but I love to dance. It makes me feel free like I can spread my wings and fly.
They haven’t allowed me to shift since I did a couple of days ago apparently it’s not safe to shift around here which makes me ask myself if it isn’t safe around here to shift then where exactly would it be safe to do so? I know that Cora wants to feel the wind under her wings and I really want to see the world through my dragons’ eyes. I know that some places would be more beautiful if she had the chance to see them with awesome eyes.
I decided to act like I was dancing with a partner like who’s going to see me dance, hopefully know one because I don’t like how they look at me like I don’t have a right to be dancing not when there are beautiful girls around anyway. Cora growl at the thought that just passed though my head like she can’t believe I don’t see myself as anything other than beautiful but she doesn’t understand because she hasn’t ever meet the people I use to call family..
Alex still hasn’t stopped bugging me about who my dragon is which kind of funny because his dragon knows who Cora is and when Alex bugs me for her name she ups Alec for not being able to shut his human up. Which I laughed for about five minutes about because of how Alec said yes dear while he told Alex to stop but that only lasted for about an hour before he started again.
I love how Cora and Alec join me into their convocations; they don’t make me feel like a third wheel at all but since I spend heaps of time talking to them Alex gets jealous and tries to kiss me which I act like I don’t like by running away.
A leaf crunching brought me out of my thoughts and made me stop dancing; I don’t like anyone seeing me dance because people would think it is weird a fat chick bust a move. Turning around I saw Alex there with his mouth open in shock but that shocked expression soon turned into one of his triad mark smirks that make me weak at the knees.
“So you can dance, I never thought I would see the day that your body would move like that.”
“You weren’t supposed to see me move like that I don’t like anyone seeing me dance aka why I went out here. I didn’t think that anyone would find me out here” I said the last part mostly to myself.
“I don’t know why you would want to hide your dancing you’re a great dancer but that’s not why I am here is because I want you to come on a date with me and you only have a couple of hours to get ready.”
Before I could question him earlier he zapped into thin air I couldn’t help but think that he was a show off. I mean I know that shifters get gifts over time but that doesn’t mean that he should rub it in my face, I bet I could do that... or maybe even something cooler like talking to him so he could see me in spirit form that would be awesome.
I decided I should ask Cora if I have any gifts seeing as shy picked me and I wasn’t born with the gift of changing into a dragon.
After I finally made it back to Candy’s by walking because Cora doesn’t think that I am ready for the risk of using my gifts just yet but I am happy that I do have some gifts. I shouldn’t be that surprised that I have gifts since Cora is kind of the strongest good dragon spirit in history.
TWO HOURS LATER
I didn’t know what to get dressed in to go on this date because he didn’t tell me, so I decided to dress in some short shorts with a singlet the flows nicely and hide how big I really am.
I was about to walk out the door but someone knocked on the door before I could, opening the door I saw Alex there and I could help but let out a shrug of relief because he was dressed up to go out to a fancy place. Thank god for that because me and fancy places don’t mix.
“You look beautiful are you ready to get going?” I said I quite thank you before following out the door but I was surprised when we didn’t hope in a car but started walking into the woods instead but I didn’t voice my concerns about walking into the woods at night because I didn’t want to come off sounding like a baby.
We were walking in the woods for what felt like ages and to make matters worse I am starving and I mean I could go for more than a three course meal at the moment.
I was about to open my mouth and ask how much longer it was going to take until we get to where we are going. Then my stomach let out one of the loudest grumbles the sounded like Cora was going to start eating me.
Alex just chuckled before he picked me up and put me on his back making me squeal while putting my legs around his waist and arms around his neck. It is lucky because I don’t have to worry about my weight.
Everything flashed before my eyes in the next second we were in a clearing much prettier than the one I found but that’s not all the was a big picnic here with huge pillows and a big fluffy blanket plus some of the best smelling food I have ever smelled.
I couldn’t help but move my hands down so they were against his chest so I could give him a big hug kind of thing because I am still on his back.
“Thank you Alex it’s beautiful” I whispered in his ear.
“Is it beautiful enough for a kiss?”
