KAYLA.

#8

First of all, I need to apologize.. This period has been..challenging. Please don't get mad. So to make it up, I'll post two chapters today..thanks!

"Grover..."

His eyes pleading sucking me into them. He holds a diamond ring that illuminates brightly.

"What.. What is this? "

He smiles warmly holding my hands and placing them on his.

"Kayla.. I can't deny my feelings for you anymore. You're everything I think about. I..really like you and I want to get to know you better.. And I just purchased this so that..just maybe In the damn world, you can permit me to court you. "

I watch him and it takes a lot for me not to fall into his arms and ask him to marry me instead.

Instead I grin stupidly "Oh Grover... "

His eyes still pleading not giving me the chance to say no.

"Yes. Grover.. I like you too and I would love to know you better.. "

He smiles genuinely at me and places the ring in my finger.

I chuckle "It looks good on me "

"Everything looks good on you.." he trails, his hands still on mine.

I smile shyly. He is going to be the very death of me!

"Well.. Since I can court you, I can do this "

He comes over to me, lifting me from my chair and I stare back at him.

His hair ruffling in the wind and my lips trembling. His hands cup my face and our lips meet.

His lips on mine!

I must be dreaming.

At first, I don't know how to respond, seeing it's my First time but soon I respond as unfamiliar warmth feel my body.

The kiss is rhythmic, almost like it was following the beat of my heart. His hands fixed on my waist draws me closer pressing against his well structured body. My hands grasp his neck as our kiss deepens.

And slowly, he stops and I also and we break apart.

His eyes glittering as I stare back into them

"I like you Kayla "

"I like you too Grover "

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

When I wake up, I feel a smile on my face. I carefully touch my lips.

Grover kissed me.

I kissed him back.

My heart fluttering as I remember last night. I kept grinning till I got back.

This morning, I keep remembering everything and I wish I was Stuck in time for just that moment.

Just then, I'm cut short by the shaking. I check behind me and I see the blue jar struggling to get open.

I scowl. It's magic time again.

Yesterday, I didn't feel like I needed to learn anything and I enjoyed being normal. I enjoyed savoring normality and being with Grover and he wasn't entrapped to me with any kind of love spell.

I walk in a coltish way and I wonder why. Then I feel headache next, that almost throws me off balance.

Josie comes out of her jar, her eyes never leaving me.
