Chapter 5

Some birds from the outside woke me up. I did wake up a bit annoyed because of them because a window was open in my room. I got up to close it, and there on the chair was Thomas, sleeping. I stared at him for a bit, giggling to myself. I saw that his glasses were falling, down and came close to his face, to remove them, and he suddenly woke up, got fast from his chair, and pinned me to the wall, with both my hands above my head, him holding them tightly with one hand.

-Emily: wow!

Which made him get a grip on himself. And see that he had me pinned.

-Thomas: Oh god!! Miss, I am sorry.

He said that he still didn't let go of my hands. There was a moment of silence where we both stared into each other's eyes yet I could, I could feel my heartbeat beating so fast out of my chest that I was afraid he'd hear it that's why I looked down I continued looking down for a moment and then I looked at his shoes, my shoes then slowly looking up to see his face he was staring, no even, glaring at me with his green eyes were dazzling they were bright they pierced my soul than my body and then I.. I.. couldn't do anything. I was so shocked I didn't speak yet he spoke first.

-Thomas: miss, ‘chuckling’ what will I do with you?

-Emily: What do you mean Thomas it's not like I wanted this I mean, we only met yes right? Even though it feels like we have met before, you know, like I have a fuzzy memory but I feel like I know you from somewhere.

And then he came closer and closer to my face and now he kissed me he kissed me, I could feel my heart melt, after that kiss, which lasted two heartbeats. After the kiss was done he slowly pulled away looking at me with his bold green eyes and then I slid down the wall on my knees, while he was grinning at me, smiling happily like he had achieved something big. Also, I was so embarrassed by that kiss, so I kept my head down, I did not dare to look down, not at all, and then saw a shadow a big one. It was Thomas. He had squatted down and I looked at him and I did and sparks flew again, and then.

-Thomas: my Juliet, how could I forget you, yet it seems like you have forgotten me.

When he said that I saw that his eyes were full of sadness, yet all I could do was look at him like I knew what was happening.

‘Knock’ knock’ knock’ on the door.

-Servant: Miss Emily, Master August has summed you to go to his study.

-Emily: ok. I will be out in a minute. You do not have to escort me to his room, Thomas will, is that ok with you

-servant: yes miss, have a good day.

He left the door and I was still on the bottom of the floor and Thomas right in front of me.

-Thomas: well, miss we have to go to your father now, and I will do your hair and make-up.

He smiled at me as he said that, looking at me.

-Emily: wait outside, and give me clothes to wear I will change in the bathroom. And dint peak please.!

-Thomas: ok, Miss.

He giggled as he went to the closet to get clothes for me.

He got me a black and red skirt and a white wine shirt, with a royal blue bowie at the neck.

I dressed fast, cause my father was waiting for me and I wanted to know if has any news on my brother. I got out of the bathroom and saw that Thomas had laid out jewelry on the small desk with a mirror, and some light makeup, he sat me down, and I closed my eyes because he wanted to be a surprise. Plus I wanted to know what kind of magic he would do to me.

As he finished doing my makeup, I knew he finished because I could hear him closing the lipgloss or lipstick.

I also felt cold, jellery touched my neck, and then up to my ears.

-Thomas: miss, I have finished you can open your eyes now.

-Emily: Are you done that quickly?

And then I opened my eyes, and let me tell you the small touch-ups that he had done, made me think I was someone else, and the earrings he had put on me were small blue and white flowers, they matched the necklace.

-Emily: and the hair? What will you do with the hair?

I asked him impatiently.

Yet he started to braid my hair and overlap it with a nice blue ribbon.

- Emily: so you like the color blue, ha I see.

I giggled at him, and I could see him turn red, yet that did not stop me from teasing him. He was so red.

-Thomas: miss if you keep teasing me I will tease you a bit.

He whispered that in my ear and shivers went down my neck and my spine. At that moment I turned around at him.

-Emily: We need to hurry up and go to my father or he'll send another servant would you want another servant to open a door and see you whispering something in my ear?

Thomas giggled and said:

-Thomas: Well miss, you're making my job harder.

He said that, as he walked to the door and opened it. He also left me some soft slippers to put on. I saw them.

-Emily: oh! Thomas, how thoughtful of you.

As I said that I saw him smile wide grinning as he walked in front of me to show me where my father's office was. As we passed down the staircase, the spiral staircase, and later on the corridor I saw a stone head of what appeared to be an old man, whose name I could not read nor pronouns so I asked Thomas if he could readmit.

-Emily: Thomas, wait what does it say here?

-Thomas: well, I can’t read this because it's written in the royal language, which is passed down through generations. But the only thing I can tell you is that this is your great great grandfather he was a wise man I mean not a musician he's dead he's just let's see hmm well he's kind of life but like nobody knows where.

After he told me that we started walking towards a too-big brown door with golden handles, he told me that this was my father's study and library he knocked on the door.

‘Knock’’knock’’knock’

-Man: come in.

A man's raspberry voice said that and at that time Thomas bowed to me then opened one of the doors and announced my entry:

-Thomas: Miss Emily is entering your study, master.
