Remington's POV
It has been a few days since I had last seen Amara and I miss her terribly. I have been so busy planning the Ball and will make it a point to tell her that and that I am sorry. I'm currently at The Underground going over last minute details but I really just want to leave. Sebastian is talking to our mom and I walk over to them."Hey Sebastian, hi mom. Do you two have everything under control here?" I ask them.
"Hi hon. Yes we have everything under control. Are you heading out?" My mom asks.
"Yeah mom, I'm heading out. I haven't seen Amara in a few days and I want to go see her and say sorry." I reply.
"Oh how nice of you Rem! I'm sure she will appreciate that." My mom exclaims. Behind her, Sebastian was pretending like he was going to vomit. So I do what any annoyed brother would do, I punch him in the arm as I walk away.
Getting in my car, I think of a way to say sorry. I decide to be cheesy and buy her some flowers. So I stop by the flower shop no buy a bouquet. The lady told me that the flowers mean 'I'm sorry' and that 'I love you'. I pay and walk out. My next stop is "As The Plot Thickens" because she is working today. Walking into the bookstore. I hide the flowers behind my back.
Looking around the store, I spot Amara putting away some books on a shelf. I walk up to her and say in her ear, "Excuse me miss, but have you seen the most beautiful girl in the world? Her name is Amara." She turns around with a confused look on her face before she sees that it's me. Amara smiles before pulling me in for a kiss.
"Rem! Hi, what are you doing here?" Amara says smiling.
"I wanted to stop by and give you these." I reply while taking the flowers from behind my back.
"Oh! They are beautiful! But purple hyacinths, they mean that you are sorry. What could you possibly be sorry for?" She asks me, once agin looking confused.
Feeling ashamed, I look away from her and say, "For not seeing you these past few days and for being so busy with the Ball."
Amara hugs me and gives me a kiss before responding with, "That is completely ok Rem! I understand 100%. There's no need to be sorry. But I do appreciate and love the flowers."
"Really?" I smile.
"Really."
She puts the flowers on the back counter. "So I was thinking, that after you get off, we could go back to my place and we could watch a movie or something."
"That sounds like a great idea, Rem. But don't you have to finish planning and setting up for the Ball?" Amara questions.
"It's fine. My brothers and mother have everything under control. They will take care of the rest." I reply.
"Oh ok. Sounds good then. I look forward to getting off of work even more now." She smiles. I walk up and down the aisles trying to keep myself occupied while Amara continued to work. After awhile , Amara finally clocks out. We leave the store and drive to my house. Upon arriving at my house, we go inside and head into the living room. For awhile, we just sit and watch a movie, wrapped in each other's embrace. About halfway through the second movie, I hear Amara's stomach growl and I chuckle.
"Getting hungry are we?" I say to her.
"Ha ha. I guess I am." Amara responds.
"I'll go and order you something." I get up and go into the kitchen. I pick up the phone and order some takeout for Amara. As for me, I go to the fridge and grab my own. I pour it into a dark cup and drink it in the kitchen, to avoid scaring her.
Before long, I hear the doorbell ring. Despite my vampiric speed, Amara answers the door before I do. "Thank you. Have a good night." She says before closing the door, the takeout bag in hand. She turns around and sees me.
"I figured since you were in the kitchen, I would answer the door."
"That's fine. Hey Amara?"
"Yes Rem?"
"I already know you're doing this but I still wanted to ask you anyway. So, Amara, will you go to the Ball with me?" I ask her.
"Aw Rem, I thought you'd never ask!" Amara laughs before kissing me.
Unknown's POV
"I don't understand why she is with him! She belongs with me!" The man bangs his fist on the table in anger, a look of hatred contorting the features of his face."Sir, how do you plan on getting her back?"
"They have a "Ball" coming up don't they? Well it seems our invitation has gotten lost in the mail."a cruel smile now replacing the hateful look on the man's face.
