“I love you”

 Episode-243 “I love you”    Sererne’s POV:      Miss. Celeste is here, I mean we decided to meet up. But I am still nervous about this, I mean I slapped Alexis in front of her, and made a fool of myself on her wedding dress selection.   Well done Serene! You are dumb b*tch!   I said, “Miss. Celeste….  I am sorry for yesterday, I mean… I can’t explain…”   She smiled at me, and god! she looks like an angle, Miss. Celeste said, “why are you sorry? I don’t mind anything… I am here to know you and be friends… please forgive me if I did something wrong, I don’t have many friends.” She is so nice, how she end up with Prince Ernest.   I said, “You don’t have friends…” I whispered and said, “No… I am a book worm.”   I saw someone sitting on the empty seat and it’s Evelyn. she pouted and said, “you had a girls day without me… Serene, we are friends… and Celeste aren’t we friends…”    Evelyn turned to me and said, “I liked the slaps…. That was houseful show..”    Celeste smiled as she looked down, Evelyn said, “Ah!.. I am wearing a blue dress on brother’s wedding… I want to be part of brother’s side…” 　 　    Celeste said, “That’s good, I was thinking Daisy will wear purple… mom will also wear something accordingly, I will make dad incorporate purple color in his suit.    I said, “You can ask your dad to match his tie or broach  to it…”   Celeste smiled and said, “that’s good….”    Celeste said to me, “Since we are friends now. Serene can you be my brides mate…”  I smiled and nodded.  I said, “I will be honored…”    Evelyn said, “Now…. let’s order… I am starving…” she is cute… Celeste and I chuckled on Evelyn.       After 30 minutes, I got a text from Alexis I am surprised. I saw the text, ‘Sere, I am waiting outside the café…. Can you come…’ how does he knows I am here.    I noticed Evelyn has a grin. She smirked at me. Evelyn said, “You can go, I will keep company with Celeste… brother must be waiting…”    Celeste looked at me and smiled, I got up grabbing my bag and said, “Sorry…”      I noticed this car and the driver opened the door for me, I got in back seat. I got in the car and noticed Alexis is looking at me, his hairs are messed.      He looks sleepy, he smiled at me and said, “sorry, but I really want to hang out with you… you are returning day after tomorrow right, and I am busy for next two days…” he is was working I guess, he looks sleepy.   I whispered, “You look sick….” Alexis smirked and said, “Sweetheart, it feels nice to see you concern about me, but I am little tired not sick…”  The car was going somewhere and Alexis said, “let’s play in snow…. Evelyn said you like snow…” he got close to me and kissed my forehead. Don’t love me that much, don’t do all of this for me….. I can’t hurt my father…          Few hours later,  I was laughing and chasing Alexis with a ball of snow… he was running and teasing me. I jumped on his back and we both rolled on the snow… I was laughing as I was catching my breathe.      Alexis was also laughing, I looked at him and smiled at myself. I got the love everyone will die for but can I be brave enough to run to him. I want to stay with him all my life. I got on his body and kissed his lips, he was surprised. But he kissed me back, Alexis was holding my waist as I kissed him.    I parted and he smiled at me. I whispered, “I will be honest with you Alexis…” he just looked at me.   Alexis said, “ok… but sweetheart,  I will freeze to death.. can we go in the car, I am not fan of cold.” I chuckled and nodded.   I was sitting in the car with him, the driver gave us privacy. Alexis looked at me and said, “go on.. sweetheart…”    I said, “Alexis…. I am glad you love me, I love you too…. I want to be with you…” he smiled at me.   I added, “But I never went against my father… I will not go against him. if he don’t want me to be with you then I can’t…. but I will be in your brother’s wedding… so that might be the last time when you will see me as your fiancé.. after our one year contract ends… we will end this…” his smile was long gone, replaced by red teary filled eyes.   He looked away, he said still hiding his face, “it’s up to you… whatever you choose, this time I will not force you….”   I was in tears too, I grabbed his face and made him look at me, he is in tears, I said, “Alexis…. whatever happens, I want you to know, I love you…. I will always love you….. Serene can be only yours…” he embraced me tight.    This is hard and out of my hand to stop. Alexis whispered in my ears, “You are really bad… heartless, how can you say you love and you will leave me at the same time…. but I promise I will respect your decision…. I will wait for you, I know one day your father will realize he is doing wrong us… I will wait for you Serene…” I embraced him tighter… If only dad would agree then I could see myself in wedding gown coming toward him…. I feel angry on dad for the first time in my life… but he won’t choose anything wrong for me..    30 minutes later,  Alexis dropped me and his car left, I couldn’t help but cry. I whispered to myself, “I love you, Alexis” -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please read my new work, "the scarlet queen"
