Luis: *taps gently on door and wonders if he should have called to see if it was ok that he came early*
Hitori: *lets Luis in and shakes his hand* Hi, you must be Janelle's man.. we weren't expecting you so soon... Janelle will be happy though.
Luis: Sorry if I'm intruding. *looks confused at Hitori's height*
Hitori: Before you give me anymore strange looks... yes I'm short... no I'm not a kid.. I'm 18... I'm just a small person... dont' know why just am... and you aren't intruding. Janelle will be very happy. Just be glad you got here before her sister and brother showed up.
Hitori: Come on I'll show you to the guest room. One of the maids here is already taking your things upstairs.
Luis: *looks nervous but follows* Thank you...
Luis: *sits nervously on the bed*
Luis: *begins to fiddle with a bracelet in his hands* I wonder if she'll like this...
Tribble: *pops seemingly out of thin air and stands beside Luis's leg* ^___^
Luis: Where in the bloody hell did you come from?
Tribble: *notices the bracelet in Luis's hand and starts making an odd but happy chirping noise*
Tribble: *reaches for bracelet and chirps more* ^__^
Luis: No... please don't take that.. its for Janelle
Janelle: *from outside the door* Luis.. are you in there?
Tribble: *a popping noise is heard followed by her disappearance*
Luis: In here.. Janelle... *looks nervous again and places bracelet on bed*
Janelle: *her voice shaking with excitement and starting to show off her souther accent* Luis... I'm so glad you are here. I was afraid with all the storms and tornados you'd be delayed. Thank goodness you got here safe and sound. Its so good to see you in person.
Luis: *goes to hug her but hesitates, his nervousness and need to be a gentleman getting the better of him* Its so good to see you too. The trip wasn't too bad and luckily there were quite a few breaks in the storm... bloody hell.. its great to finally be here with you.
Janelle: *blushes a little* I'm sorry if you waited long for me... I was on the phone with my mother. Apparently 6 years ago my mother and her fourth husband were living in England and adopted a teenage girl and well the girl turned 18 and they can't handle her and asked if she could come stay here... so seems like we will have another person in my home soon. But.... enough about that... I hope you don't think me silly but I got you some gifts.. *starts to hand over wrapped package* Its poorly wrapped. I didnt' think you'd be here so soon.
Luis: You didn't have to do that Janelle... thank you.. you are so thoughtful. *blushes*
Janelle: I hope you like it... I thought it was something practical and you might need or want...
Luis: *still a bit suprised and looking at the package* Thank you...
Janelle: *blushes* well silly.. lets sit down and you can open it.
Luis: *unwraps package and looks at first shirt in the package and smiles* Its the same color as your dress.
Janelle: *blushes heavily* I hope you don't think me silly. I saw it when I bought my dress and thought it would be neat if we had something semi-matching.. I've heard of couples doing that before... Its dorky I know.. You dont' have to wear it if you don't want to .. it was silly of me.
Luis: No.. its wonderful.. I bloody love it. Thank you Janelle, really... its not silly at all. I love it. *smiles*
Janelle: *takes wrapping paper from him as he pulls out the second shirt, a white button down* I hope you don't think me silly... I saw you wearing one similar to this in a Manor picture... and I thought you looked very handsome in it and well.. I heard it was borrowed and you didn't have one of your own so I thought you needed it.
Luis: *is slightly speechless* Janelle... this is so nice of you .. thank you...
Janelle: *smiles happily* I'm just glad you liked it.. now you just have to promise to wear them for me.
Luis: Its a promise then. *smiles and places shirts beside him*
Luis: I have a gift for you as well... *picks up bracelet*
Janelle: Really??? You shouldn't have.. you are so sweet.
Luis: Its something I found awhile ago... I was just waiting for the right person to give it to. Now I know..that person is you.
Janelle: *looks at Luis happily and goes speechless*
Luis: *hands Janelle the bracelet*
Janelle: LUIS...IT'S BEAUTIFUL.. I have no words... thank you... thank you so much. *touches it gently with her hands*
Luis: Here.. let me put it on you *grabs her wrist and slides it on her*
Janelle: *starts to get tears in her eyes* Luis...
Luis: It looks beautiful on you.
Janelle: I'm so happy I could burst right now.. thank you, thank you, thank you.. a million times thank you... I'm so glad you are here. I'm so lucky that you are here...
Both: *lean in to kiss each other*
Both: *get close enough that they can feel each others breath*
A loud pop is heard and Tribble appears and both end up kissing her instead of each other..
Tribble: *chirps happily and giggles* ^______^
A pop is heard again and Tribble disappears just as quickly as she appeared and both turn their heads nervously from each other.
Luis: I'm sorry... I..
Janelle: No.. I'm sorry... I...
Janelle: *stands up quickly* Well.. its getting late.. I should find Spock and tell him to get ahold of Tribble.. and you should rest..
Luis: *raises hand and looks like he wants to tell her to stay but cant' find the words*
Janelle: *starts to walk off* I'll fix us breakfast in the morning. So come down whenever you are ready.. I know you are a late riser so I'll cook a little later than normal...
Luis: *still speechless.. doesn't want to be rude or too forward*
Janelle: *voice starts to crackle as if she wants to say something* Well... I'll see you in the morning.. *leaves quickly*
Luis: *quietly* but....
Luis: I'm an idiot... why could I not have just told her I wanted her to stay and talk longer...
Luis: *gazes out window at moonlight* and I could have kissed her... if it wasn't for that Tribble.. that thing is as bad as Cami... *sigh*
Luis: Why couldn't I just tell her... and be more like some of the other guys in the Manor.. be more courageous.. *sigh*
A light flicks on and Janelle walks in..
Janelle: Luis.. I can't stand this... I know we've only known each other a short time.. but I care for you so much... in a way ... I think I'm falling in love with you.. I don't want to be apart for the night... Can I sleep in here with you?
Luis: *thinks to self.. bloody hell is this for real???* Of course Janelle... I feel the same way.. please... come lay here with me.
Janelle: I really am so happy you are here.. It means so much to me. Will you hold me til I fall asleep? I've wanted to fall asleep in your arms for awhile now...
Luis: O-o-of course Janelle.. I've wanted the same thing...
Janelle: I've got another favor to ask of you....
Luis: Of course.. what is it?
Janelle: Can you tell me goodnight and then finish that kiss we started earlier?
Luis: *blushes* Y-y-yes...
Luis: Goodnight Janelle.. *begins to kiss her*
Janelle: *melts into his arms and kiss and starts to close eyes*
