With a sigh of exasperation, I allowed myself to be dragged toward an adorable cottage in the woods, not too far from where I had been picking berries. This guy was gonna be the death of me I swear...
He showed me into the warm, cosy space, and told me to sit by the fire. I did as he said. Who would have argued? He disappeared for a few moments, and then returned carrying a bundle of luscious fabric.
"Change into this, it was my sisters, but you probably need it more"
"Ok, will your sister mind?"
"She's not with us anymore"
"Oh, where did she go?"
"She died"
Well that was a shock.
"Oh, er, sorry?"
"Don't be, it wasn't your fault, and anyway, it was a long time ago. "
I sighed in relief at his non-upset tone, and quickly changed while fit boy had his back turned. The retro fabric clung to my body in all the right places, and ended in a flowing train of blue silk. Silver embroidery left trails of flowers along my arms, across my chest, and ended in a cluster at my feet. it was beautiful. But it needed lacing at the back...
"Er, could you please help with my back?" I stammered.
He smiled, and slowly walked around to where I was standing. He trailed his warm fingers up my icy back, and I shivered at the Sparks than ran through my entire being.
"Of course, anything for a girl as amazing as you". Well, that was a bit foreword! But I kind of really liked it. Wait, what??
"I should probably get back to my mum, she'll be wondering where I am." And I grabbed my skirt and ran out the door.
................ ...................
"And where have you been, young lady?" And that's my mum. "You get up to your room and ready for bed right now"
Please don't notice the dress, Please don't notice the dress,Please don't notice the dress, please don't notice the...... "What are you wearing?!?"
She noticed the dress.
"Oh, just something a friend lent."
"And where are my berries?"
"They're right here, ma'am." Rumbled a deep voice. I would recognise that anywhere.
"Who the hell are you? What do you think your doing standing there in my kitchen?!"
"Mum it's fine, he just helped me out when I fell in the park."
"Get to your room now young lady! And you, give me those berries. I'll be having words with the both of you tomorrow!"
I ran up to my room and started to undress, hearing a door slam and a few mumbled apologies.
All done for tonight, keep reading and voting for the next chapter!!
