Alyssa
Two days have passed, and I still haven't seen Kristoff. I sat on my bed, as I dry my hair using my towel. I just had a bath. I took my phone, and checked if I had a missed call from Kristoff, or he texted me. But he did not. I sigh as I see what time it is.
'Maybe he doesn't wanna see me. Or he lied of what he said to me two days ago. Or maybe—'
I stopped over thinking, as I hear something was thrown on my window. A rock?
My eyes widen as I see a crack on my window. What the?!
I hurriedly run to my window and look down. I felt like the time stopped. My heart was beating so darn fast, that I can almost hear it. My mouth popped open. I felt butterflies fluttering inside my stomach.
I saw Kristoff standing and looking at me straightly with a smile, while his brother—Kristian—holding a guitar, then looked up. Both of them were wearing white long sleeved—like polo. Don't know what it was called though.
(A/N: wala kayo clue? haha Barong po siya Hahahahaha. Okay continue na)
Kristian started strumming the guitar. Then I was stunned when Kristoff sang.
(Song: My Love || Westlife)
"An Empty street, An empty house
A hole inside my heart
I'm all alone, the rooms are getting smaller..."
I was stunned, when he sang. I am not saying this in a bad way, but his voice is not that good. But I can also hear his sincerity. And that sincerity, makes his voice awesome for me. I smile.
"I wonder how, I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had, the songs we sang together
Oh, yeah. " He sang as he look at me in the eyes. I grin
"And oh, my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far
So, I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again, my love
Overseas from coast to coast
To find a place I love the most
Where the fields are green
To see you once again
My love... "
I was smiling the whole time, when he finished singing. Then he smiled at me again. Then raised his hand.
"Oath of allegiance, I love only you. My woman I promises you will never be hurt. You will be the light of our home, if you agree to let me marry you. You will only be my wife, with or without light. You're the only woman. I'll love you even if you fight me a few times, I'm ready to coax you a few times. So Alyssa Reighn Montreal, can you be mine? Then I'll be yours too?"
I was stunned, hearing his Oath. But wait— Did he say, He wants to court me? Or did I heard it wrong. But what's with the Serenade?
I motioned my hands, saying "COME ON IN." Both of them nod, and walked aways—heading front of our house. I quickly walked out of my bedroom, and hurried to the living room.
My brother isn't around, 'cause he had a job this night. That's why I'm All alone here. I opened the door, and two figures popped in front of me. Two pairs of blue eyes meets mine.
"Hi, Alyssa..." Kristian said.
"He-Hello..." I said shyly, and looked at Kristoff. He smiled at me, I flushed. I opened the door wider. "Come on in."
Both of them came in, as I guide them towards our living room—where my brother was watching TV, and now was confused— I let Kristoff and Kristian Sat on couches.
I sat beside my brother, while the other two are facing us. My brother's expression is still the same, confused.
"What are you two doing here in our house?" My brother asked, I nudge his elbow because of what ge said. It's rude to say it like that! Hmp!
"Well..." Kristoff remarked. "As you can see, we had a serenade earlier. Right, Ali?"
"Y-yes."
"I'm here to court, Alyssa." Kristoff said. I froze in my chair. Did he say he'd court me? Or was I imagining things?
"Are you sure?" My brother asked.
I was stunned, I couldn't open my mouth to say something, and I can't think straight. Then a loud laugh from my brother, worked my senses.
"You court my sister?" Then my brother laughed again. "What are you? Teen agers? Seriously?" Then he laugh again. I blink.
"Yes, I will court your sister. That serenade we did earlier is a proof, of my Allegiance..." Kristoff said. I stared at him, as he look at my brother dead serious. "... And I'm dead serious about her, because I love her."
Then my brother's laugh slowly faded, and changed in to a serious glare. Kristoff still calm, not worried what will happen, while Kristian is smiling. Then a smile formed its way on my brother's mouth. Which made me surprise.
"Okay then, for me you passed. But it's not my decision, it's my sister's decision, not mine. So I guess I'll leave you guys." Andrew said, then he head off to his bed room. But before he got inside his bedroom, he looked at us–or Kristoff. "I trust you..." then he opened the door to his bedroom and got inside.
After my brother is gone, I slowly looked at Kristoff. There was a huge smile on his mouth.
"Oh? Looks like, I have to go. Bye!" Kristian said, and walked towards the door.
I was taken aback when, Kristoff suddenly hugged me. My cheeks burned. Ohmygod!
"K-Kristoff!?" I Shouted a little.
"Sorry, I'm just tired, and I've longed for you, Ali. I miss you so much." He said. How dare he?! He's the one who didn't–urgh! Jesus! The thought of him missing me so much, I just can't be angry at him!
I hugged him back. "I miss you too." I said, I can almost hear him smile. I smile too.
I pulled Kristoff, and hurriedly run towards the door. "Come with me..." I said, and he didn't object.
I pulled Kristoff with me, to the place where I love to view the town. When we arrived at our destination, I let Kristoff see what I was going to show him.
"Tada!" I said, while gesturing my hands to the scenery.
Mouth popped open, eyes widen. Kristoff was amazed, surely. Looking at him. His outfit seemed messy, because of the running. I chuckle a little. Well he's still look hot though.
"Wow..." He said, then looked at me.
HOURS LATER WE just enjoyed the view and talked about lot of things.
"Ali..."
"Hmm?"
"What's your answer?"
My brows furrowed "Answer? , for what?"
He blew a breath, then talked "Can I court you?"
I blink, as I hear what he said. "I know it's kinda high-school-like, but that's what I promise to myself." He said, straightly looking into my eyes. "I promised to myself that, I would court the girl, I love. Then, after that—"
"Yes." I said, cutting what he was going to say. My cheeks are burning. Kristoff was shocked. "You can now court me." I said, as simple as that.
I was surprised, when he just jumped off and yelled "YES!" while his hands are up high.
He immediately hugged me tight. Catching me surprised,When he finished hugging me, he slowly made me sit down. He's looking at me, with wide smile. It's like a virus, it's spreading. His smile makes me smile too.
"I'm so happy..." He whisper, still looking at me, with gleaming eyes.
"I can see that." I said, as I stared back at him.
He just smiled at me, and then looked up the sky. I look up too, watching the stars twinkling, while the moon lights up.
"Remember when I said, you should go with me? Go back to my hometown?" He ask, I just nod my head.
"You said about going to Philippines? Right?" I ask.
"Yes."
"What about it, then?" I asked again. He looked at me, and smiled.
"Tommorow's our flight."
"R-really?"
"Yes, really. It's because it's Kristhen's Birthday one day from now. They already took a flight yesterday." He said. Oh? So it's Kristhen's Birthday this coming March 19?
"When will they arrive?"
"Well, the flight takes only sixteen hours and forty–four minutes. So two more hours and then they'll arrive at Philippines."
"So it's our turn, tommorow?"
"Yes."
After some late night conversation. Kristoff and I, decided to go back and meet at the house tommorow morning.
°°°After the flight°°°
I GAZE AT KRISTOFF AS he put his hands around my waist. He smiled at me, then I smiled back. I looked at my brother, he was smiling too. Well, we haven't travel far before, So it's kinda our first time travelling out of the country.
I looked at the direction, we're taking. We're heading towards a Limousine. There's even a man-in-black, standing outside of the limousine. It did not surprise me, when the Men in Black, opened the door, and let us all in. Kristoff was on my left, while my brother's on the right. Yup, I'm in the middle.
As the limousine go, I relaxed myself, so that I could move on from having jetlag. My mind's still kinda floaty. I closed my eyes, and felt the heaviness of my body. Then after that, I fell asleep.
WHEN I WOKE UP, I was not sitting. I was laying down! On a bed! I opened my eyes, and saw a chandelier, with flower designs. I looked at where I'm laying. Yup, it really is a bed. A queen size bed.
I look around, to see a yellow coloured wallpapers, cabinets with lots of pikachu Flushy. Some pikachu figures, and a Man sized Pikachu. The one's who sleeps here may be a biggest fan, of Pikachu—.
I turn my gaze towards the door, it opened. The smiling face of my brother widened more as he walk my way, and sat on the bed.
"Did you have a good afternoon sleep, Sis?" My brother asked. I nod, smiling.
"What were you smiling about?" I said, wondering, how on earth is my brother smiling?
"Well, I was just amaze about something. Let's go? Kristoff and his mother is waiting downstairs." I gasps air, as I hear what he said. Kristoff's mother? I gulped.
"O-okay, but I need to freshen up, first." I said, getting nervous about meeting Kristoff's mother. What if she don't like me?
"Hmm' kay. I'll go ahead then." He said, then left me alone.
I calmed myself, and hurriedly run towards a door. I was surprised that it was a Bathroom. Seesh!
I walk in to the bathroom, and got rid of all my clothes. I want to look good, in front of Kristoff's mother. When I finished taking a bathe, I took the bathrobe, and also took the hair blower. I dried my hair while walking out of the Bathroom.
I took some clothes from my luggage—I just found them there— and wore something nice. I combed my hair and let the as they are, and wore a pair sandals. As soon as I'm done, I opened the door, and walked straight. Looking for the stairs.
I walked down the stairs, while walking I saw Kristoff talking to a woman. The woman was facing at Kristoff, and Kristoff was facing at me. Yup, I think that's her. Kristoff's mother.
My feet wobbles, hands getting wet, and mouth goes dry, as I see the woman turning my way, slowly. Here goes nothing.
When I arrive, where they are, Kristoff immediately holds my waist as we face his mother. I breath out a little, to ease up my nervousness.
"Mom, I'd like you to meet, Alyssa. She's the woman who I've been talking to you about." Kristoff said with a bright smile. "And Alyssa, I'd like you to meet, My Mother, Katelyn Smith." Kristoff said. I wore my brightest smile as I look at Mrs. Smith.
"Good evening, Mrs. Smith." I said, with a polite voice.
"Good evening, Alyssa." She replied. I smiled at her, and she did the same. Then looked at Kristoff again. Ignoring me? "Kristoff, Where's Angeline?"
"On her way, she said. I called her earlier, and she will be here." Kristoff replied.
"Okay, that's good. I want you —Kristoff— to be Angeline's pair on Kristhen's Birthday, okay?—" my eyes widen as I hear what she said. What?
"What!?" Kristoff muttered, a little loud. "You want me to be Angie's pair?! But I already have Alyssa to be my pair!"
Mrs. Smith looked at me, before looking at Kristoff and said. "No more complaints, and do as your told, Kristoff—"
"But Mother—"
"No more buts. I have to go. Nice meeting you Alyssa." She said, then walked away.
I just gave her a smile. Then pursed my lips. Huh? Kristoff's mother doesn't like me.
"Uhm. Kristoff?"
"Ali, that's not what she said, she said in the call that she already likes you—"
"Kristoff..." I said in a soft voice. "I need to take a rest. Is that okay?"
He sigh, before nodding. I smiled at him, before taking my leave. A drop of a tear, makes it way to my cheeks...
