Chapter Five: As You Wish

 

I knew he had heard.

 

Just by looking at his face, I knew.

 

Seth’s expression was no longer tense and full of annoyance but pale and sickly. His eyes kept shifting around but never looking at me. He kept fiddling with his hands and was constantly messing with his bangs.

 

A part of me wanted to yell in his face and scream “I told you so!” Another part of me just wanted to curl up in my bed and cry until I fell asleep. And much to my surprise, a third part of me wanted Seth to hold me, just a simple hug would have been fine, but I quickly shoved those feelings aside.

 

Azzurra Zuccherini is never depending on anyone. A long time ago, I swore to myself I would never trust anyone, especially a boy, ever again…

 

“Seth?” I asked calmly.

 

He took no notice and kept on fiddling with his hands.

 

“S-E-T-H”

 

Still no reaction.

 

“Holy hell Seth! Stop messing with your fricken hands!” I yelled as I slapped his hands apart.

 

I stopped and stood in front of him.

 

“Seth, look at me,” I demanded, but he refused.

 

“Damn you! Okay! Do you know what? Don’t look at me; just open your damn ears! I know you were in the room when I was on the phone with my mother. I know that you know my grandfather is dead, and I know you almost saw me breakdown in that office.”

 

Seth’s head shot up from looking at his hands. His green eyes bore into my now, stormy grey ones. He looked at me as if he discovered something totally brand new and shocking, but again I shoved any civilized thoughts away and continued.

 

“Now I want you and me to walk down to the office and pretend as if nothing ever happened. You understand me? I try very hard to keep my life perfect, and I try very hard to keep nosey people like you out of it. You’re going to continue to dislike me, and I will do the same. And no one, I repeat, NO ONE, will find out about my grandfather’s death, correct?”

 

His eyes were still staring hard into mine, but I stared right back with just as much intensity, if not more.

 

“Is there anything else, Azzurra?”

 

I was very taken aback when he used my first name. I wasn’t planning on it at all. As a matter of fact, I was more than positive he would’ve called me “Princess” again, especially after I had yelled at him. Yet he used my first name, and not only that, in a nice way too.

 

Hoping he wouldn’t catch the shock in my voice I answered him.

 

“If you tell anyone about me almost crying, I will have you murdered. And believe me, that won’t be hard.”

 

He looked at me sympathetically and nodded his head.

 

“As you wish, Princess.”

Hey. I've been reading your story up to this point, and I must say, (even though I'm sure you've heard it all before) you are an amazing writer. This chapter was unbelievably good, for a filler. Your characters just speak to me and it's so easy to get myself sucked into your story. Kay. Going to keep reading now! :)

By the way, thanks for the kind words on my writing! I wanted to return the favor, so.. excellent job!

I love this book but I think the chapters are too short

[Dalaina Renee]

Ohhh....he called her Princess! Now she's gonna get mad!

[Adeline]

Ah! Amazing! I must keep reading now! :)

The intensity and the tension here are perfect... Seth's silence is a vivid way to capture the awkward moment. One can feel the pressure inside as well as out!

[Jacquelene Vanessa More..]

i love the way you make your character's believeable to the reader, each chapter they become more and more alive

[Anna Writes]

i like this chapter! i like Azzurra's personality...she is very independent and she stood up for herself...and your writing is really good, it was spontaneous...=)
