Chapter 17 - Love At First Sight

Love At First Sight

Amelia

"Am so happy it's weekend", I said laying on my bed having a romantic fantasy of my prince charming am yet to meet, " Silly me".

" I think I should take a walk down the lane and listen to music with my earpiece maybe I can ease my mind off boredom before going to see Sofia and Chloe or better still come home and sleep all day waking up just to eat, would be fun", I smiled," Am boring without my girls".

I was about to leave the house when an idea struck my mind," The beautiful castle down the lane, let me ask mom about who lives there and why is it empty?". I said.

I headed to my mom's room to ask her but the response I got from her was so annoying," Amelia get a part-time job to do weekends since you don't have something vital to do with your time, stay away from that cursed house", She frowned.

"Maybe coming to her was a bad idea, I guess I came at the wrong time, she makes some sense when she mentioned the part-time job, would do justice to that but for now let me take a walk".I concluded and left the house.

I took my walk with my earpiece listening to some cool songs that I didn't notice the castle today.

I already had enough so I decided to go back home to have my bath washing off the sweat then passing the castle I stopped, when I observed the gate that was always locked with a padlock wasn't having a padlock anymore.

I stood there for some minutes confused and also waiting maybe someone might go in or come out from the castle but none," Amelia should I do what am thinking? I would disobey mom if I do, mmm am going in and mom won't find out". I finally agreed to go to the castle and I checked the environment to know if someone is around the premises but none.

I opened the gate and entered, "Wow this is beautiful and dusty, which I can move in here and be a princess here with my prince charming", I started having some fantasy.

I stopped and came back to my senses, " Anyone in, hello, it's someone around, hello...", I kept on calling expecting a reply from someone in the main building but got none, "This is so frustrating, I need someone to at least come out, I know someone is in, are they not friendly with people, it looks am trespassing", I said.

I wanted to take my leave when I heard the sound of the door, I turned around knowing someone will finally answer me.

" Oh My God", my mouth was wide open like I also froze as well, looking at the most handsome human standing looking back at me with his charming eyes, I felt butterflies in my belly.

After many stares, I cleared my throat and said, "Hi, My Name is..", he didn't even let me finish my sentences when he left and locked the door so fast, " How rude of him, is so fast and cute".

"Maybe everyone is just having a bad day today, what if I come back here tomorrow since I know that a handsome prince lives here".

I left the castle and walked straight home, smiling uncontrollably that I didn't even take note of mom and dad in the living room.

" Seems someone is enjoying her weekend without me hum", Dad snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Oh my daddy is jealous", I hugged him and made him understand, " Come on father, my day is always incomplete without you, how about we have our favorite tonight", I said.

"That will be perfect", dad said as mother cleared her throat to give us a sign that she is still here with us. Father looked at me as we both started laughing at mom reaction, we know she is jealous.

I entered my bathroom to shower when I was done, still on my towel looking at the mirror applying my lotion on my smooth skin then his thought came to my head again. " Damn it, why am I thinking of him, he got me, when next I see him, he owns me an apology", I put on my easy ware and landed on my bed with my phone in my hand.

Talk of the devils, my phone rang, a video call coming from Chloe and Sofia, I answered and my phone almost fell off my hands.

"Hey Amelia, the team are hosting a party next weekend"

"You girls are something else, you almost gave me a heart attack you know, please next time express your excitement in another way".

"Whatever", Sofia said resting on her hands together.

"Guess you and Gael will be a perfect couple that night", Chloe added.

" Oh girls, not him, besides I met someone damn hot and handsome today", they all gaze at me in surprise, they know have never talked about a guy with smiles on my lips.

"You blushing girl, tell us about it," said Chloe.

"Does he have a brother, cousin, or a friend that is as cute as him, you can just link us up", Sofia said smiling.

I allowed them to express out everything from their mouth then I finally got their audience when I threaten them of me ending the call and not telling them anything".

" Oh please don't do that, will be quiet", they were all curious.

"Well I entered the old castle today seeing the padlock was no longer locked but opened, I entered asking if anyone was in when he came out, we both kept on staring at each other till I broke the silence to even tell him my name, he just locks the door without saying a thing".

" That's bad and good", Sofia added.

"How bad and good at the same time", I asked.

" Maybe he's a shy type and he doesn't know how to start a conversation with you or he had a mood swing, you can go again, I want to meet him". Sofia said.

"I thought as much, maybe he didn't want to transfer his anger at me that's why he acted like a gentleman by locking back the door, will go back there tomorrow"

"Perfect, if possible kiss him", Chloe said winking at me.

" Silly girl, am off, bye girls", I ended the call.

"I just can't wait to hear him speak to me tomorrow, maybe I might even fall in love when he speaks, oh Amelia don't tell me am falling in love at first sight". I thought about his pretty face all through.

Dimitro

I couldn't stop admiring her beauty, she is more pretty in reality, " Am falling more deeply in love seeing her in reality, this is so not happening, I shouldn't have come," I said mentally.

She got me out of my thoughts when she cleared her throat, I smell her blood like I should feed on her, I didn't let her introduce herself when I locked the door with speed.

I watch her from the window as she left, " Am such a fool right now. What will she think of me now?", I got worried a little?

"What if I end up killing her myself, It's best I leave in other for me not to hurt anyone", I existed the castle back to my world, I made sure I wasn't followed.

Heading to my chambers I got stopped by my brother," I hope he doesn't have an idea about the door".

TBC.

What do you think of their kind of love at first sight?
