His Glossy green eyes glistened in the little light still shining over the school house. He had one dimple peaking over the right side of his face. His cheeks were lifted and eyes focused on Anne's. Her eyes gazed back up at his. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"It is quite dark, I suppose that would be okay."  Anne's voice quivered a little at the end of her statement. She struggled to keep her voice solid and subtle. Miss Stacy had existed the back entry leaving them in the classroom alone. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gilbert took a small step backwards to creat a path out the door for Anne. Anne obliged and pranced forward sweetly. Dusk was coming, the sun was nearly downed out by the cold emptiness of the dark. Anne feared the dark greatly though she would never let Gilbert know.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anne glided to the first step off of the school house waiting for Gilbert's company. Gilbert arrived next to the red head and extended his arm, Anne Shirley took the invitation and slid her arm through his, interlocking her own fingers once their body's were connected. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"So Anne, class today was eventful wouldn't you agree?" A sly smirk slid onto his face. A flirtatious expression lit up his eyes, the tension was thick however the air was soft and loving. "I have no earthly idea what you're talking about Blythe." Anne taunted ignoring his adoring smile.  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Neither do I Anne-girl. I must've fallen asleep and dreamt everything up in my head." Gilbert said playfully followed by the pursing of his lips. "What happened in this dream? You really should stay awake in class, this is why I've been awarded top of the class." She flaunted batting her eyes.  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"If anything we're intellectually Equal. Besides, I think you would blush upon this dream and I'm a gentleman I wouldn't put you in a position of embarrassment." He stated mocking the both of them in the earlier situation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Please Gilbert, I've been been reading about how in Ancient Greece they would use dreams to tell the future." Gilbert kindly agreed and began to recall the events of earlier in the day. They were both smilingly conscious and aware of this fact, however Gilbert explaining what happened was giving Anne butterflies.  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Well, that Josie Pye has convinced everyone to play this game. She was in the mood for chaos I'm sure." He said with a small chuckle bubbling up from his lips."Do go on Gilbert." She asked politely, flitters swirling in her stomach. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"She made everyone sit in this circle, all of our friends were there. Well, Jerry and Josie kissed for am exceedingly long amount of time. It was an interesting way to start out the game but I couldn't be one to talk." Laughter erupted from the both of them while recalling Jerry and Ruby's lovers quarrel.⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Why are you one to talk?" She questioned quietly but loud enough for him to hear. "You see, eventually it was my turn to spin this bottle, and after loads of re-spinning and arguing it landed on you." Gilbert's eyebrow slid up mischievously. Waiting for a reaction from his Anne-girl. Blood rushed to her face and she smiled very wide. She attempted to bite it back but it didn't work out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Fate." She whispered low to herself, not expecting to be heard. "Precisely." He replied joyfully. His words sent a shiver down her spine. She grinned, her nerves were off the chain, she was rambling on to herself in her head about what to say and how to react. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Then one thing lead to another and you were kissing me, I don't know what happened." He said in a playful voice laughing. Anne moved her hand and slapped his chest softly. "I did not kiss you." She declared. "You kissed me." A giggle escaped her lips as she pointed her nose upwards towards him. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Anne Shirley, you are many things but a liar is not one of them. Now I would gladly kiss you but the fact is I didn't." Slyly slid in Gilbert. Anne tried to think of a witty but still playful response quickly, however her mind swirled around the thought that he would 'gladly kiss her.' ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The wind whistled loudly. The sun had fully set and the moonlight lit up Anne's eyes beautifully. Stubborn and hard headed Anne refused to admit she was the one who kissed him first, even though she knew it herself. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"So Anne-girl, do you plan on attending the formal?" He asked anxiously, awaiting her response, practically holding his breath. "Possibly, I'm sure my friends will have pairs so I'll debate if it will be worth it going Alone." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gilbert smiled widely. They arrived at green gables and suddenly they both snapped into reality. The gate was closed and the porch light was on, she could see Marilla's silhouette through the cloth curtains. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"It was lovely walking you home Anne." Gilbert said joyfully, a wide dumbfounded smile appearing on his face. "Yes it was, thank you Gilbert." She replied, her face turning red. Gilbert was struggling not to kiss the girl in front of him, he didn't want to overstep any boundaries. A few more moments passed of them gazing into each other's eyes. This was his moment and he knew it, he wasn't pressured by any games. He leaned their faces were inches apart, they exchanged warm breaths.  ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Anne?" Shouted Marilla from the porch. "Is that you?" She called out into the shadows. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gilbert and Anne quickly pulled away from each other. Exchanging understanding glances. Gilbert kindly opened the gate as Anne ran up to Marilla. Gilbert waited for her to safely enter her home before leaving. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I apologize Marilla, the walk was just so beautiful." Anne pleaded with her care giver. "It's alright, don't do it again Anne." She told Anne sternly. Anne babbled on for a few moments before sitting quietly at the table. She sat patiently waiting for Marilla and Mathew to sit down for dinner. Once the table was set everyone sat down and Marilla said grace. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Whatever is the matter Anne, you're awful quiet?" Marilla asked with a bit of mocking. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Marilla, the town is holding a holiday formal for all the students and all of my friends are going and I really really really want to go Marilla, can I please please go Marilla?" She questioned dramatically. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
[I hope you enjoyed this chapter it was my favorite to write so far! What do you think Marilla will say?] ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
