When the moon speaks

Chaptor 2 - The party

It was 9 o'clock. The party starts at 9:30. The doorbell rang...

It was a less scary version of Jeromy. He wore a perfect suit, with a white shirt and an electric blue bow tie. He looked like James Bond. But younger. And better. She instantly fell in love. She tried to find her voice, but when she did she could only manage to say, "Wow." Jeromy smiled. Elezibeths heart almost stopped. He smiled even more and allowed a small laugh escape him. His blue eyes stud out with the bow tie. His dark black hair lay on his face, complementing his amazing cheek bones. Elezibeth thought 'Why haven't I asked him out yet?"

After a long quiet conversation Jeromy finally said, "Your dress looks beautiful." She wore a short electric blue dress that matched Jeromy's bow tie. She was stunned by his appearance. She tried to something but all she could manage was, "Wow." Jeromy smiled. Elezibeth's heart almost stopped. He smiled even more, and even let a small laugh escape him.

He has bright blue eyes that stand out from his bow tie. His black hair lies perfectly on his face, complimenting his cheek bones.

Elezibeth thought, 'Why haven't I asked him out yet?'

After the brief examination of Jeromy, he finally said, "Your dress looks nice." Elezibeth began to look nervous, which made him regret saying that. Elezibeth then started playing with her hair when Jeromy noticed how perfect she was. Her dress matched his bow tie, her hair was dark brown, similar to his. He then followed her curly hair down to her face. Then to her bright blue eyes. 'How can she be so perfect?' he thought. A confused look brushed his face, that he thought that she wouldn't notice, but she did. She started to get paranoid. 'What did I do wrong?' 'Is it my breath?' 'Do I have something on my face?' She questioned. Jeromy saw the painful look on her face, he had to say something. "It's not important. It's just... you're so... perfect. You confuse me." Elezibeth's expression changed when she said, "You're the perfect one, not me." Before Jeromy could say anything, she stole a hug. Jeromy had never experienced a hug like this. He's never been loved before, only hated, and feared. He hugged back and mumbled, meaning every word, "I love you." He was going to say something else, but Elezibeth pulled out. she pushed him further inside the house, saying, "The party's starting." Se then saw the agonising look on his face. "Wait in the kitchen, I'll come back." Before he could think about what he was doing, he was already in the kitchen, missing her warmth. Missing her sent. Missing her love.

Lots of people turned up to Elezibeth's party. Jeremy glanced out if the window towards her. He noticed a group of boys surround her. Anger boiled up inside him. 'What do I do.' He thought. 'What if she falls in love with one of them instead?' he then makes his way over to the door and pauses. 'I cannot leave. She told me to stay. I will not disappoint her. Not now. Not ever. I love her too much to hurt her now.'

At ten o'clock, Jeromy heard a sound coming from the living room. Then Elezibeth came stumbling throu the door. The smell of alcohol overwhelmed him. She then acknowledge that Jeromy was there. So she stumbled over to him but fell over into Jeromy's waiting arms. He pulled her up and smirked, "Have you been drinking?"

"No." she replied. "I'm tired can you put me to bed, please."

"Sure." He said.

So he picked her up and carried her up to her room. He tucked her up in bed and turned to leave, when she said, "Can you stay? I'll get lonely."

"Why, aren't your parents here?"

"No. Please stay." She said, with her puppy dog eyes.

"Fine." So he picked up a spare blanket, took his top of and scrunched it into a ball to use it as a pillow. He then lay down and pulled the blanket over him. Elezibeth was confused on what he was doing, and when she realised she suggested, "Why don't you sleep in here?"

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

So he got up and tided up his mess and climbed into the other side of her bed, keeping his distance, until Elezibeth shuffled over and snuggled in to him. Jeromy couldn't move away incase it hurt her feelings, so instead of denying it, he accepted it. Putting his arm around her. And waited until she fell asleep, before he did.
