Forever in Love by hima (my reading book TXT) 📖

them for a while when I heard Ron clear his throat.

“Alan is quiet different when he is with her…” I observed. Ron nodded.
“Did you find the werewolf…?” I asked. “No… He is masked by the scent of other creatures…” He said passing his hands through his hair. “You mean there are more of them…?” I was appalled by this latest information.

“Yes…” He was about to say something when Mrs. Blake called us for dinner.
“I think I should go home now…”I said as the darkness covered the skies. “You should stay here, dear. It’ll be safe for you…” Mrs. Blake protested. “But… “The stern look I received from her gave me no choice.


“Rose…What was your father’s name…?” Mr. Blake appeared suddenly out of nowhere. He grabbed a chair opposite to me and sat. “Evan woods…” I said with mouthfuls. “What did he do for living…?” he asked. I know where this will lead but can I lie as easily as I did with others. “He is history professor, sir…” He was known to the world as a professor so I didn’t really lie about it.

His eyes studied me for a while and he shrugged his shoulders and resumed eating…I’m sure he caught my lie… I dropped gaze desperately trying to avoid his probing eyes… dinner was really uncomfortable for me. I sighed as soon as Mr. Blake left to attend a call.

“Ron…Show her room…” She said. Ron walked me to the same room where I was treated previously. “Thanks…I think you won’t come barging into my room since you have TV…” I smirked. “I’m still going to school tomorrow. I can’t lose my attendance…” I said and shut the door on him. I know it’s rude but I needed to think alone…

“I still don’t think it’s a good idea, honey…” Mrs. Blake fussed. “I have to go Mrs. Blake…I lack attendance and y grades will be down too...” I pleaded. “Don’t you let her go alone anywhere. One of you always stays with her…”She said with grim expression. “Oh! You don’t have to worry about that Mrs. Blake, Ron likes to annoy me all the time with his presence…” I humored.

True to their words one of the boys all watched over me with their eagle like eyes…Ron took every opportunity to sit by me and annoy me with his over protectiveness.

“Ron…I don’t think you are welcome in a girl’s room…” I said as he followed me unwary of where I was going… He blushed deep red as he saw where I going to.

“I’ll wait here…If you have any problem… just give a shout…” He said. I nodded. “Where were you, yesterday?” Amy glared as I set my plate on the table. “I forgot assignment papers at home, so I rushed home in the lunch hour…”I lied. Day by day it became easier to lie to her… I felt guilty of keeping her ignorant of a major part of my life but it is something I should do for her own good.

“Is Eddy alright… He is been absent for over a week…” I said the empty chair where Eddy usually sat. “I tried calling him but he wouldn’t pick up… I hope he is okay…” Amy said picking at her food. Amy had a secret crush on Eddy ever since he knew him. This was a little secret that’s just between us.

Beck dropped her plate making louder noise…She sighed as she sat beside me. “Is everything okay…?” I asked. “Nothing…. Is okay…”she screamed. “What happened?” I asked.

“Can you believe it? I was the only in the class without a date for the upcoming party…” She said waving her hands in melodramatic posture.

“I think you should ask, Ron…” I snickered. “Are you trying to set me up…” Ron’s voice hissed in my mind… I stared at him schocked. “Don’t look so shocked…” He said. “You sound better with your mouth shut….” I said.

“Ron…”Back turned eagerly towards him. “You are the one lectuting about making people happy…” I said smugly. “I guess I’ll go with you…” he said directing a spiteful glance towards me. “Do you have a date…?” I asked directing my question towards Amy…

“Don’t think of hooking her up with Alan…He’ll personally kill you…If he knows of your plan…”he replied in my mind. I shrugged him off.

“I haven’t thought about it…may be I’ll ask Nick but I know he wants to go with you…” She said picking at her food. “Well…we can always ask Alan…Nick will go with me…” I said.
“You are dead…” Ron hissed at me. Alan walked just in time to hear the conversation….”What do you think Alan…?” I asked. “I’m okay with it…” Ron’s mouth dropped open. “What…?”Alan scowled.

Last two days were totally busy with people preparing for the big party… “Rose…Will you come home…? We can…”Amy was cut off when Ron appeared beside me all of a sudden.

“Are we going…?” Ron asked eying us. “I’m sorry… I got to go…” I said with a pleading look hoping she would understand me…she sighed and left. It hurt me so much… unseen barriers falling between us seperating our closely knitted relationship. I should do something before it completely falls apart…

“Hey… I need to get some things…will you drive by my home…” Ron was thinking hard… “I don’t know…” I cut him off. “I gave up my job and freedom in my life…I’m losing my friends… all because of you… yet yo can’t do a simple thing that I ask you off?” I shrieked at him. He was surprised at my sudden outburst.

He drove me home and waiting tapping his shoes impatiently as I collected necessary items… I rushed into my room and closed the door and windows carefully after making sure I was completely alone… I crouched down the bed… I scattered away all the old things that I left under the bed… I groped for the latch…since there was no light under here… I pulled open and found the neatly wrapped thing… I grabbed it…

The light caught shimmery red cloth and it shimmered… I felt it with my trembling hands… “I’ll keep it safe…”I promised. I shoved it into my backpack and hurried downstairs before Ron gets dubious…

“I’m ready…” He stared at me and walked over to me…Did he…? I supressed my thoughts… “You have some dust on your hair…”he said.

Mrs. Blake was scurrying across the hall impatiently when I walked in…”Where were you…I was getting worried…” She scolded. “We stopped by to get some things…”I said.

Mr. Blake walked just in time with a curious smile plastered across his face…his eyes travelled to my backpack and it looked as if he was scanning the contents of it. His smile grew wide…

“Let’s go…” Mrs. Blake said. I took one last glance at Mr. Blake as I reached the last step, his gaze still fixed on my backpack… Maybe I did wrong in bringing it here… What should I do…? I paced nervously in the washroom.

“Honey… are you finished? It’s almost time…” Mrs. Blake voice echoed. I quickly bathed myself as I came to a decision about what to do…

I shuffled through the clothes I brought…I’m an idiot all the time I was thinking about the thing and forgot to bring some party costume with me...

“I brought something for you…”Mrs. Blake said walking with a cover in her hands…. It’s blue evenig gown…not too dazzling. “Thanks…Mrs. Blake…” she waved her hands in dismissal of my thanks…

“I think you are done…”she said after fixing my hair…She pulled me into a deep hug after taking a good look at me… “I hope one of my boys is good enough for you…”she said a small tear escaping her eyes.

“They are waiting downstairs…let’s go…” she said blinking back her tears…I have never felt mothers love may be this is how it felt…

“I’ll be back in a second…”I said hurrying upstairs into my room. I placed the keepsafe safely in my wallet and ran downstairs…

Ron and Alan were waiting in the living room looking all hero like in their tuxedos… My eyes unconsciously darted towards Alan…his well carved body fir perfectly into the tuxedos…his eyes glinted with more mystery to them… It’s weird how his eyes still held me captive in real and dreams… his eyes made contact with mine and I could see something all together different from his usual expression. Was that love or awe I see? I wish Amy was here to tell me what was that. He broke the eye contact and stared down at the ground…

“You are gorgeous…” Ron said with a wide and mischevious grin… Kat padded in and tugged at the hem of my dress and extended her hands gesturing me to scoop her up. I did and she kissed me smiling.

“I wish I could do that…”Ron said in my mind… “you do that and I’ll beat the crap out of you…”I scolded. He laughed merrily.

“Let’s go…”Alan said awkwardly. “Do we need to pick the girls…?” Ron asked whistling lazily. “Drive by Amy’s house…” I said.

Ron honked as we approached Amy’s house… Mrs. Jones opened the door for us…her eyes went wide with surprise…She pulled me into hug…” It’s so good to see you…”She cried in joy.

“Luce…let her in…”Mr. Jones voice boomed. “It is you…” He said winking and giving me a quick hug… “Ron…Alan…come on in…”I said.

“It’s okay…we’ll stay here…”Ron said eying Mrs. Jones carefully. “Is someone out there, dear?” Mr. Jones asked. “My friends…we came to pick up Amy and Nick…” I said.

“Come…” his voice dropped in mid sentence as he saw who it was… “Come in…”He said tentatively… Mrs. Jone tugged him throwing wary glances towards him… I observed all the weird silent gestures going on between them.

“Hey…” Nick rushed towards me and picked me up off the ground swirling me. Nick and I were good friends… “Put me down…”I shrieked as my mind swirled. He giggled as he let me down. He grew up a good 5 inches above me…his houlders became broad and well defined muscles were apparent under the white translucent shirt…he put on some tan that made him look even hot. “You have grown so much…”I said.

“You too… you look even more beautiful than the last time…”he smiled. He went rigid as soon as he saw Alan and Ron in the car…

“What are they doing here…?” He asked as if he knew them well. “I told you about them…”Amy said with a look that I knew too well…It always said to keep your mouth shut…

“What the hell is going on here…?” I thought. “Let’s go before we are thrown out for being late…”I said faking a smile…Seriously… there is something going on here which everyone knew except me… I thought I was the only one having secrets… I guess even Amy had something she should confess to me.


Beck practically dragged Ron to the dance floor, There is none in the party whom she didn’t talk about Ron being her boyfriend. Ron threw spiteful glances at me, mouthing rare curses at me. I laughed; it’s his chance to be annoyed rather annoy someone. Nick was caught up in a conversation with one of his old friend….

“Hey…” Eddy stood tall at our table… “Eddy…” Amy and I shrieked in joy. We practically pounced on him in joy. “How are you…? We missed you…”
