Enchantress

Chapter - 25

She nodded her head and hugged him. "I hope everything will get back to normal. I don't like this emptiness that's killing me from inside". She said and Daniel gave a kiss on her head.

"I am happy to see that you are giving yourself some time. Time will heal everything, Jen". He assured her.

She nodded and remained silent. "Jen?". He called her softly.

"Umm?". She looked up at him.

"How are you?". He asked her carefully because he never dared to bring this topic again after Emily's funeral. Everytime when someone talks about Emily she is breaking down and he couldn't see her crying and hurting herself.

Her eyes moistened and she averted her gaze from him to the sky. Slowly she pointed her fingers to the sky and smiled. "She is up there. Every night I see her in my dreams. I know that she is watching us from the sky and missing us more". A lonely tear escaped from her eyes and she turned her head to look at Daniel. "Daniel, it still feels like a nightmare. I still can't believe that she left all of us permanently. Her face, smile, voice, scent, her yummy food, her warm hugs and everything about her still remains fresh in my mind. I wish I could see her one last time". She didn't cry but tears started rolling down her eyes.

Daniel looked at her and closed his eyes. "Daniel?". She called him and he opened his eyes sadly.

"I wish it was me instead of Emily who stayed at dorm that night". She told him and his world stopped. He can't believe she said that. Gritting his teeth, he pulled her into him and sealed her lips with his lips. It was a punishing yet a passionate kiss. She cried in the kiss but kissed him back with equal love and desire.

He released her lips when she started panting for air. "Ever don't say things like that, Jen. Imagine leaving me alone? Your Daniel is nothing without you". He cupped her face tightly and said ever word with a clenched jaws.

"I love you". She confessed with tears.

"I love you t...". Before he could complete his sentence they heard Stacy's loud scream from the hall. Their eyes widen and they stromed towards the hall. As they reached the hall, they saw Sean holding both of Stacy's wrist in his hands and she was struggling to pull her hands away from his grip.

"I will definitely kill you, Grumphy!". Stacy yelled at Sean but he kept laughing.

"Sean! Let go of her!". Daniel scolded Sean seriously.

"Daniel, she will hit me if I let go of her". Sean complained and Stacy scream louder this time.

"Yeah, I will definitely kill you". Stacy yelled.

Daniel walked towards them and pulled Stacy away from Sean. "Why are you always behaving like this with her, Sean?". He asked him angrily.

"Not my fault. She is the one who started". Sean shrugged his shoulders.

Jenifer stepped near Stacy and gripped her arms. "What was that, Stacy? Why were you yelling at Sean?". She asked Stacy sternly.

"This idiot is asking me to sleep with him". Stacy pointed her fingers at Sean angrily.

"What? What the hell Sean?". Daniel yelled at Sean.

Sean laughed and his face turned red. "Daniel, don't believe in this Devil. She is telling you only half of the story". Sean defended himself.

"Then what's the full story?". Jenifer asked him confusion.

"Honey, I took Stacy to her new room and said that, that room will be hers and she started throwing tantrums at me". Sean narrowed his eyes Stacy.
