Sorry for my shameful late, but I’m sure you’ll enjoy this looong chapter verrry much!

Chapter 6

On Friday morning they met at Juliet’s house and then they left to London.
The travel was longer than they guessed, so they were forced to stop at a small village on their way. There wasn’t much, just an inn, a baker’s shop , a clinic and a bunch of houses.
They headed towards the inn and as they asked their rooms, as Elisabeth warned on the phone her aunt about their late and told her that they would be there tomorrow.
She came back to her friends waiting for her.
Juliet: Elisabeth, there are only two rooms left.
Elisabeth: How can it be? There’s no one here.
Juliet: No, in fact. But they have just three rooms, so, my darling, you and me will have to share a room together.
Elisabeth: Ok. Let’s take in the room our stuff, then.

The two girls got in their room and they began setting their things.
Juliet: Are you happy for this trip?
Elisabeth. A lot, saving this temporary stop here.
Juliet: Well, it could be fun. Well, it’s not the best to share the room with you, but we’ll have to.
Elisabeth: Juliet, what a shame! Are you telling me that you would prefer to spend the night with a man?
Juliet: Hell no. Not with every man.. maybe.. with Leonard!

Elisabeth burst out laughing , covering her face due to the embarrass.
Juliet: Make fun of me as much as you please, as you wouldn’t prefer to fall asleep in William’s arms.
Elisabeth: It’s inconvenient ..
Juliet: It’s inconvenient ..- her friend repeated, imitating her- you are talking like my grandmother!-
Elisabeth. Do you mean.. have you already slept with a man?
Juliet: Well, do you remember Federico, the man that I should have married and that had dumped me two weeks before the Wedding?
Elisabeth: But.. you haven’t told me that..
Juliet: Well, it was so embarrassing then..
Elisabeth: So, how was it?
Juliet: Elisabeth! I’m amazed, where did all this curiosity come from? Are you going to..?
Elisabeth: No, hell no, what are you thinking?
Juliet: Calm down! I was making fun of you. Anyway, I have not a good memory, there wasn’t any passion between us, no love..
Elisabeth. Was it your only time?
Juliet. More or less, I got closer with someone else, but I hadn’t have sex with anyone anymore. I guess that it’s something you feel inside you when it’s the moment to do that with the special person, your heart has to tell you that, your head and your body, too.. and the rest is magic!
Elisabeth. And with Leonard is there this magic?
Juliet. I don’t know, my dear, it’s to soon to tell that, don’t you guess? We haven’t even touched. I have to find it out. I hope there will be the chance, without having to think about you two..
Elisabeth. Enough with this story, I’m sorry for you, but you won’t make me feel guilty for that. It’s Leonard and you that plotted everything..
Juliet. Ok, I understand. Anyway, you could do me one favor to repay me, and leave the dear Leonard and me alone to know each other better.

They look at each other and laughed.
After getting dressed, they went downstairs to have dinner.
They ate in the inn, taking about everything, and then they went to the porch to have a coffee.
William: It’s a beautiful night, it feels so good to stay outside..
Leonard: Yeah, it’s a perfect night to take a walk, are you up for a tour around the village?
William: Why not?

Juliet looked at Elisabeth with a pray in her eyes, and her friend sighed.
Elisabeth: I prefer to stay here. Would you like to keep me company, William?
William: Sure- he said a little bit stunned.

Juliet smiled and linking arms with Leonard she took advantage of that to drag him away, before he might change his mind.
Elisabeth: Sorry, but I guess they wanted to be alone.
William. Don’t worry, I like spending time alone with you.

They smiled at each other and stared the blue sky for a while.
Elisabeth: The first time we met you told me you are a poet.
William: Actually, I said I write poetry.
Elisabeth. Isn’t it the same thing?
William: It’s not, because if you think I’m a poet you take for granted that I’m good, and I doubt about it.
Elisabeth: Have you ever been told that it’s annoying to point out at the words so much?
William: But words have a specific meaning and a specific weight when you say them. I didn’t mean to be annoying.
Elisabeth. Oh, you’re not annoying, it’s nice when it’s you doing that!

They looked at each other again for an endless time, without managing to take off eyes from each other.
The situation was getting kinda dangerous. Elisabeth felt again that sensation that dragged her to him as a magnet, but she imposed to herself to resist.
Elisabeth: You could read to me one of your poetries one fine day.
William: To make you run away scared?

They laughed, and Elisabeth got up and leant against the wood railing.
William leant beside her, staring a spot in the emptiness.
Elisabeth: What are you looking at?
William: Nothing. I stare a spot from afar without looking nothing special. It’s a good way to let thoughts flow.
Elisabeth: So, you have a lot of thoughts, then.

She looked at him, smiling.
William: Honestly, just one, but he’s been occupying all my mind for several days

He turned to her, looking deep into her eyes.
Elisabeth. So, it’s an annoying bulky thought!
William: The most beautiful one I’ve ever had. It has two wonderful green eyes and soft hair that has the same color of honey..

Saying that, he got closer, caressing her face.
Elisabeth. I guess your thought is terrified now.
William: Why?

He asked, getting even closer to her face, so much that speaking their lips almost touched.
Elisabeth: Because it’s confused and it ‘s afraid to be hurt.

William parted gently from her, and he took her hands in his.
William: I don’t want to hurt, neither scare you. There’s no rash . it’s just that when I’m with you I don’t understand anything anymore.
Elisabeth: Yeah. Me, too. I feel as I’ve never felt before when you are so close to me- and saying that she got closer to him- my heart starts bumming as it was about to explode.

They were so close that they can’t look each other into the eyes.
They felt the mutual attraction increasing more and more until William gave light kisses on her lips that grow with intensity and passion.
Elisabeth parted her lips and their kiss became more than passion, it was a burning fire, leaving them breathless.

After an eternity they parted, starting to breathe again and they realized what had happened.

Elisabeth sat again, all she was aware of was that her heart, her mind and her body was pushing her to him.
Elisabeth: I’d better come back in my room, tomorrow will be such a long day.
William: You’re right, I’d better go, too.

They went upstairs and they stopped in front of the girl’s room.
William: so, goodnight, see you tomorrow.
Elisabeth: Yes, goodnight.

He turned and took a couple of steps towards his room.
Elisabeth: William.

They looked at each other for a while, and then without realizing that they were into each other arms again. Elisabeth pulled him to her more, and they stepped in the opened room.
The shawl Buffy kept on her shoulders fell down and William let his hands run along her almost naked back.
The atmosphere was getting hot, until William parted from her roughly.
William.: No, wait.
Elisabeth: You’re right, we can’t. Not yet.
William: Yeah, we shouldn’t go any further or I won’t be able to stop anymore. I’d better go.
Elisabeth: Yeah, it’s better.

They headed to the door and they smiled without saying anything.
After William had closed the door behind his back and that he had reached the terrace, he lighted a cigarette and aspired the air of the night.
After a while, Leonard came back, grinning happily.
Leonard: What a wonderful night. Juliet is just lovely, we are meant to be together.. and.. but you’re smoking!
William. Yeah- he replied without watching his friend.
Leonard: You smoke only when you’re very nervous or worried. Did it happen something with Elisabeth?
William: I guess she’ll drive me crazy.
Leonard: What happened?- he asked, reaching him at the terrace.
William: I had never been so attracted by a girl so far, under every single aspect. Heart, head and body. When I’m with her I lose my mind , I can’t resist her.
Leonard: You haven’t answered at my question yet. What happened? Did you kiss her again?
William: Yes, but it wasn’t a kiss. It was an hurricane.

In the meanwhile , Juliet came back happily, too.
As soon as she got in, she saw Elisabeth’s shawl on the floor. She picked it and she approached the bed, where Elisabeth laid with closed eyes, sighing.
Juliet: Wassup? Are you sick?

Elisabeth startled, sitting up on the bed, realizing just then that her friend was back.
Elisabeth. No, don’t worry, everything is ok!
Juliet: Why was your shawl on the floor?

She thought about that for a while, and then she decided that if her friend had come beck a little bit earlier she would see a scene hard to justify.
She blushed and Juliet noticed that.
Juliet: Oh, oh! I want you to tell me everything!- she said enthused.
Elisabeth. We kissed, twice. First time downstairs, and then here, in front of the door.
Juliet: I don’t think it was an innocent kiss as the first one, judging by your reaction..
Elisabeth: Juliet, I don’t know what to think. It was pure passion, I couldn’t resist him.. I can’t even explain that.
Juliet: And then?
Elisabeth: And then we ended up here, I was without my shawl, and he traced my back with his fingers..
Juliet: Wow, I almost breathless. And then? What happened?
Elisabeth: He stopped, saying it was better not to keep doing that.
Juliet: Lucky for me, or I would see something shocking! How do you feel?
Elisabeth: Puzzled. I’ve never felt like this..
Juliet: You have already told me that, but I don’t know if you enjoyed it. Are you happy?
Elisabeth: It was fantastic, I’m very happy. Trust me, if he hadn’t stopped, I wouldn’t manage to stop myself.

The two friends laughed and they spend a big part of that night chatting about Juliet’s night.
Once they were in their bed, Elisabeth had trouble to fall asleep, she couldn’t stop thinking about that night.
