the moonlight played across the water as she glanced out from the balcony, the music from the ballroom playing behind her. She wandered tward the steps to the gardens getting some air from all the dancing she had done for the night. she wanted a break as she couldnt stand all the snotty boys and there airs as they tried to seduce her with little presents and charming wit. she would rather be far away. they had never held much interest for her.
she wandered the path tward the roses and sat on the bench facing the beach, as the moonlight shone in her eyes and the salt water air stired her hair. she felt like a moon being. she wished that she could just find someone to trust. she startled as she heard the rustle of a gown and footsteps approaching. she turned and could see it was just her friend come to find her. as she felt the fabric brush against her as her friend sat she turned to look at her face and saw beauty that was beond all what a boy could ever hold. she held her hand as friends did and smiled at her as she hid her feelings wondering if they were natural at all.
they started talking of how stupid boys were and gosiipping on the girls in the ballroom behind them. the dance swirled in the windows behind them. never devuldging what was going on down below in the soft moonlight. they continued to talk and walked to the far side of the garden where the orchids were blooming. smelling wonderful she leaned in closer at the same time and came face to face with the girl. she startled a little but then her friend leaned in closer. there lips meet in a single second and i was like nothing had ever exsisted before it. they jumped appart knowing full well it was taboo, but they couldnt help at the leaps and bounds there hidden feeling had grown. she grabbed her friends hand and they ran off to the shadows of the maze benieth the balcony where no one would see as she placed another kiss on her lips. they sat on the bench and held eachother. not wanting to let go.
she franticaly searched her room looking for anything they might need on the run. she couldnt leave her. just couldnt let her go. she was on her mind all the time. she grabbed all the dresses and every inch of fabric and jewels she owned and stuffed it into the trunk. she heard a soft knock at the door as the girl of her dreams oppened it. she rushed into her arms for a quick embrace before dragging the trunk out of the room.
she loaded the cairage with there trunks and she glanced behind at the home she was leaving. she placed her hand into hers and smiled. they would find a way to make it alright. the wheels turned as the carage pulled away and they retreated into the night..
