ELLE'S POV:

The night looked chilly outside and I was getting a little prettied up for tonight. In the hallway bathroom is where I was because it was one of the only places I can be alone. For the first time in forever, I was going to look pretty on the outside for one person. My personality although shy is already beautiful, I think. Brushed my afro, changed out of my casual clothes and into a simple blue dress. Carefully, I put on some mascara on my long eyelashes and put some chapstick on my lips. Lastly, I put on a light blue headband with a ice blue fake flower on it. Pretty or not, I still didn't bother to look in the mirror because who needs a device to remind you what you look like on the outside? Nonetheless, I walked out in black dress shoes with comfy socks inside them. Mom was the first one to notice me when she was passing through me from my room.

Mom: Look at you, baby girl, all prettied up for the hot boys!

Me: Mom, stop. I'm trying to look professional but not too..."attractive".

Mom: Suit yourself, beautiful! Good luck!

Slumping over to the kitchen I gave Mom a thumbs-down behind me and jokingly blew a raspberry. Seeing Elijah, cute and curious, I stand up proud and straight again.

Me: Hey, Elijah, dude! How do I look?

I asked putting my hands on my hips.

Elijah: As your brother, you look amazing!

In response, I reached my arms out to him and hugged him.

Me: Thanks, dude. But I was trying to look casual.

Elijah: Don't worry, sis, you'll be fine.

Knock, knock, knock!

Those knocks again.
The Secret Admirer must be here.

Me: The Secret Admirer's here!

Elijah: Yay!

Skidding over to the backdoor, I smiled to myself as I was about to turn the knob and let'em in.

OK, Elle H, this is it. You're all prettied up and your secret admirer is at the door. Just be yourself. Whatever happens happens. Be cool even if it's...unexpecting. Here we go, now. Opening the door for my secret admirer and...

Who I saw at the door was so...unexpecting. He was....he was....
He was a tall young adult looking boy with triangular blonde hair, golden blonde hair. He wore a black top hat on his head, black gloves on his hands, and black shoes. Gold-ish yellow long tuxedo dress coat that seemed to have opened up on the bottom. He also wore a black belt and black shiny pants. His face though, his face....his face was triangular, he had the perfect nose and a positive mouth. His left eye was covered by an eye patch and his other eye I could clearly see was golden yellow like his suit. I know I'm a soul person but this guy, outside-wise is just so...so....HANDSOME!

???: Well, well, well, ain't it a lovely evening today, my cute blue sweetheart.

His voice was so...perfect...it's so hard to describe like not to deep and not too high.
He tipped his hat to me pleasantly as I gazed at him.

Me: ...You are not....who I expected.

He bent down to look into my eyes as swiftly grabbed my note from my hand and showed it to me.

???: And I see you've found my note, my intelligent amorè.

My face felt so warm and my pupils must've turned into hearts. It was just like in movies where a girl sees a handsome guy and sparkles were around us. But this wasn't a movie, it was so real.

Me: We-we-well, I can't wait for
our great night tonight.

???: Well then, it's a date.

Feeling so happy, I couldn't help but wiggle my ears with joy and grin a little toothy smile. Everytime I get so excited or interested in something, I wiggle my ears. The handsome boy chuckled at it, thinking it was amusing. Of course, I became embarrassed and the top half of my face turned blue. Quickly I turned away and covered my face with one of my hands.

Me: Uugghh! S-s-sorry for my enthusiasm.

???: Don't be. I like your enthusiasm.

I became shocked again making my eyes sparkle. Suddenly I notice Elijah was in the hallway surprised at seeing me and the man. We both turned around to the little man.

Elijah: HOLY SMOKES! WHAT THE HECK!?

ELIJAH'S POV:

The man looked tall and really strange. He was like a pirate mixed with a prince or something. Either way, something just felt weird.

Elle: Hey, Elijah, this is...um...

???: Your secret admirer.

Elle: Yes, my secret admirer.

The man stepped up to me with a black cane in his hand then looked down at me, smiling.

???: And you must be the little brother, nice to see you.

Me: Um...nice to see you too.

Lending out my hand, I was hoping for him to shake my hand or high-five me.

???: Quite the manners, young man, but it's not like I'm making a deal with you.

He bent back up and walked around the house, inspecting it or something.

Me: Is it just me or is he super weird?

Elle: Oh I see it...and I like it.

We turned back around suspect that the mystery boy would be there, but he wasn't. He must've disappeared or went into the hallway. Me and Elle both checked the hallway, noticing that the door to Mom's room was open. Calling from the room the guy said "Sorry about coming in here, I was just curious!".

Elle: Curious about what?

We looked over in the room seeing the dude laying down attractively on Mom's bed. Probably for Elle to gaze at.

???: Curious about the way you'd react to this. Also, care for some hot cocoa?

Elle bent over to him, in a loving trance, and surprised at his Blue powers picking up a mug with steam coming out of it. The magic levitated towards Elle until she grabbed it with both hands.

Elle: And you're m-m-magical too.

She took a gulp of the hot chocolate, "blue"shing even more.

Me: What the?

There is something up with him but I couldn't explain it.











And I don't like it.





















Hello, everybody, EPHtheCoder here! You get the gist!

Is this mystery man as he seems?

Does Elijah deserve to be suspicious?

Will romance FINALLY blossom in the future of this book?

Stay tuned, folks!

Alastor: Hey, that's my line!

Me: You just GET OUT of here you spoiling little (airhorn noise) (cha-ching) (DUN!)

Lolbit: Now, now, Elle-Belly, this foul language shouldn't be allowed to shared to the readers.

Alastor: You are a wonderful robotic fox.

Lolbit: Oh, thank you.
