Haha, same, same xD

The whole book I pronounced his name "Car-sl-ee" because I just was skimming the name and that's what my brain sounded it out as haha when someone told me it was "Car-lile" I got so upset xD

Elaina absent-mindedly stroked her thumb over his palm while answering, "Well, yes, they do. Or at least that's what they tell me constantly. But they blamed me for Jacob (Blah I can't remember if it was that or James..so it's going to be Jacob, haha) cheating on me, for some odd reason. Like I'm not interesting to keep a guy around. So they'll probably be a bit skeptical of you loving me at first."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Haha, that's so annoying when that happens. I did that in Eragon with a few names. And I stil refuse to call Saphira Saph-ee-ra and instead call her Saph-eye-ra. And Arya will always be Ayra, for as long as I live.

Was James, but never mind xD

Christien said, "Well, I hope they soon see that I happen to find you fascinating, baby." He gently squeezed her hand. "And well, they'll have to understand just how much I love you. I'm really serious about my relationship with you, more than I've ever been with anyone.. And I see myself with you not just for the short term, but for a long time. I.. No, I shouldn't say it, in case you're not ready or you think I'm going too fast."

 

[VideoStar95]

Omg! I did that with Eragon too! Lol with those two names as well xD

Darn it! Well I was almost right...ish...

Elaina's bright hazel eyes widened and she tugged on his hand anxiously, "No, no say it. I don't think either one of those things and just...just say it." She gave him an enouraging smile and waited to see if he was going to continue talking.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

I love that book. It took ages to get into it, but it was worth it. And I loved the elf world in Eldest. I've never imagined anything so vividly as I have that place.

Christien paused and took a deep breath, still debating on whether to continue. Eventually, he did. "Well," he said, "It's just that.. I don't picture myself with anyone else anymore. I.. I've thought about you and I always being with each other and I've even thought as far ahead as.. Wanting you to marry me, when the time is right." He hoped she knew that, yes, he played silly games with her and, yes, they were young, but he was deeply and passionately in love with her. Probably much more so than she realised

 

[VideoStar95]

I hated the movie though...well more, just compared to the book it was terrible. You know? But you can never grasp a great book as well in movie form. Though, Harry Potter I think was well done.

Elaina's smile widened ever-so-slowly to a full on grin, her eyes lighting up like sparklers. Somehow, she managed to control herself, as to not freak out happily and bounce all over the place like a mad-woman, or throw herself at him, as they were still in a game, of course. "I feel exactly the same. I can't picture myself with a life without you...and you'd make a great husbend..when the time is right."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

It was a terrible injustice. I hated the movie. The characters and the settings were ALL wrong and the story was so different. I loved the first few HP films. But I guess I felt too dark for me, less magical after that.. I did like the Goblet of Fire as a book, but the film was crap.

Christien smiled, looking relieved. "I know it's still really early on for us. But I'm so in love with you, more than I've ever been with anyone. And I just know that I'll always be in love with you, and I can't throw that opportunity away. You're the most beautiful girl I've ever met-- on the inside and out, the former being the most important-- and I'm afraid I'll lose you if I don't show you how committed I am to you."

 

[VideoStar95]

I agree with the dark more than magic thing. Some points got kinda downright creepy. My favorite, I think, is the third-if that's the one with the werewolf in it.

Elaina beamed and a rosy blush find its way onto her cheeks, obviously more-than-flattered. "I'd love to marry you, Christien, as I didn't even know I could be this happy with somebody, or this in love. But, if you feel we'd be rushing into it, I can wait as long as you'd like; you won't lose me, I promise."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Yep, that's the one. I preferred the Chamber of Secrets, really.

"I would happily marry you today if I could," Christien told her. "There are a lot of things that just have to be sorted first. We have to get our life together sorted out.. and things with school.. being able to afford it all.. I'm all for going crazy and being spontaneous, but just not this time." He sat silently for a moment and said, more smiley now, however, "And, of course, the proposal has to be more romantic than this," he chuckled.

 

[VideoStar95]

That one was good too. For some reason, I've always loved Draco haha

Elaina laughed along with him for a bit before saying, "Well, that completely makes sense; maybe even the planning will be fun! As long as I get a life with you, it'll be fine with me." Once she finished speaking, she noticed that they'd arrived at the hotel and the cab-driver was looking at the pair very strangely, as he was probably wondering why they hadn't got out yet. "Come on, love," she tugged gently on Christien's hand, "we can continue this conversation in the hotel, if there's anything left to say."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

I liked Hermione, as a character. Don't know which guy I liked, really, though.

Christien handed the driver his fee and apologised for holding him up before getting out of the taxi, all the while keeping a firm hold on Elaina's hand. He lead her back into the hotel, going through the lobby and into the lift. He didn't really know what to say now. He was just so happy at that moment in time that he found himself unable to express how he was feeling. The girl he loved more than anyone had just told him that she would say yes to marry him whenever he decided to ask, and that she would wait for as long as it would take for him to do it. When they got back to the room, he pulled her into his arms and.. Oh, he so badly wanted to kiss her there and then. Instead, he pushed that thought out of his head and said to her, "Elaina, I was so afraid you'd think I was crazy for thinking about marrying you already. You always make me the happiest man alive, but not usually more so than you just did."

 

[VideoStar95]

Yeah, though I never really saw Hermoine and Ron as a couple though. I think it was more, all of a sudden, in the sixth book, it was like BAM they're gonna be a couple, rather than leading up to it gradually.

Elaina felt completely at ease right there in his arms, and she managed not to just mash her lips into his, but it proved to be very difficult. Especially with all the adorable things he was telling her, yet, she was determined to win this competition. "I love you so much, Christien, more then I ever, in a million years thought was possible! I feel like we, together, as a couple, can handle everything there is. I mean, we've already covered getting stranded on an island and slutty hotel maids, what else would there be?" She laughed and wrapped her arms around him tighter than before, resting her cheek against his chest.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Yeah. There were a few movie moments that hinted, though. And the fact that they always argued.. There was always something behind that.

I just watched The Lovely Bones. It was amazing.

"I don't think there's anything that could get between us anymore.. We fought a lot yesterday over the maid.. But then it suddenly just turned upside down and instead of me being so angry, and then the next moment, I was more in love with you than I'd ever been," Christien told her, wrapping his arms around her more tightly. He buried his face in the golden locks of her hair and breathed in deeply, just taking in her smell that he loved, at the same time feeling how warm she was in his arms. "I don't know what I'd have done if you didn't believe me yesterday and had left me. My whole world.. Would have crashed down on me."

 

[VideoStar95]

Hmm, I suppose, yes. Just I guess I wasn't that observant, haha.

And that movie slightly confused/creeped me out. I read the book, so I knew it was going to be weird. But I feel like, if someone hadn't read the book they would have a hard time following the plot in the movie. But it was quite good.

"I'm sorry that I even began to think that you would cheat on me," Elaina murmured against his chest, her voice slightly muffled by his shirt, "I was so stupid. I guess I just wanted an excuse to leave because I felt I was never good enough for you anyway. But, that was then and I was completely insane. Plus, I did very much like the moments after we fought...that was amazing...you were and are amazing." She looked up at him, her gaze dropping from his eyes to his lips very slowly. "You have no idea how much I want to kiss you."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

I liked it a lot. I thought it was the best film I've seen in ages, actually.

"I understand. You don't have to apologise to me. It looked like it. Everything I said beforehand that ended up making you go downstairs made it look like I wanted to get rid of you. And it's happened to you before. And I know I would want to get out of it as soon as I could if I thought it would happen again, to save myself as much hurt as possible," Christien reassured her. "But you're right, last night.. It wasn't my first time because we'd slept with each other on the beach, but it was still the best night of my life, because of the perfect dinner. The moment was perfect. And you were perfect in every way possible." He watched her gaze change with a small smile. "Oh, believe me, I know exactly how much. I'm feeling the same way."

 

[VideoStar95]

Really? Haha well that's good

"Even if I would have left, I would have had to come back, you know that, right? I don't think I could have standed living without you; is that cheesy or what?" Elaina's eyes remained on his lips and she slightly fidgited in his arms, trying to distract herself from what she so, so, so wanted to do. "It was the best night I've ever had as well. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it all day."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

The girl who played Susie was really good, too.

"Yes, it's cheesy, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I would never have gotten over you in a million years, so I would have never stopped waiting for you. When I thought of that while we fought yesterday, that's how I knew I never could be with anyone else and I wanted to spend my life with you," Christien replied, in obvious agreement with her, happy that she would have come back for him. He said to her, "I'm glad, you know, that you liked it.. I'm forever afraid, before and after, that I don't know what I'm doing or that I'll hurt you.. But it's easy with you, it's the most natural thing in the world to me."

I'm off to bed, anyway. G'night!

 

[VideoStar95]

Yeah! And the guy who played the rapist. He was in the Devil Wears Prada too. And Mark Whalburg (the dad) is always nice to watch on screen lol

Elaina squeezed him one last time before squirming out of his arms, not that she wanted to or anything, just she had to get the family call done now so she could spend the rest of her time with Christien. "Don't be afraid to do anything with me, whatever you do I'll love. So never hold yourself back, alright? That's all I ask. Whether having to do with things like last night or anything, really, don't hold yourself back." She reached up to kiss him once on the cheek.

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Nigel <3 I loved him a lot less in this, of course, he was good at being creepy xD

"Okay, I promise, I never will. And the same goes for you, too," Christien replied, returning the kiss to her cheek. "I can't say I ever have since the first time. Before that, of course, we had to, because of your arm. But with things like last night.. It's not worth it if you're holding yourself back. So I know I won't. Now, you should probably call your parents. Phone's over there." He nodded towards one to the bedside tables.

 

[VideoStar95]

Lol yeah, I was pretty creeped out watching that.

"I promise you I won't either, and thank you." Elaina mosied over to where the phone was and picked it up almost hesitantly, obviously wondering what her mother was going to say about what happened. The made sure to dial a 1 in front of the number, as they were in a different. She waited a while, her mind working while the rings echoed in her ears.

"Hello, this is Elizabeth."

"Mom?"

"Elaina?"

Elaina's mother proceeded to freak out, in a good way, of course, like any mother would do upon finding out that her daughter was more than ok and in France. She commanded Elaina to come home that very instant, but calmly, Elaina informed her about Christien and their "situation", who was thrilled, but of a course a bit skeptical about the whole thing. Elizabeth told her daughter that she would call the rest of the family to tell them she was okay, and that Elaina must call her the same time tomorrow. Elaina agreed and put down the phone, slightly grinning. "Well that was interesting."

 

[KERFUFFLE]

Christien took a seat in one of the living space's armchairs. It was possible for him to hear Elaina's mother going crazy on he other end of the line, a he smiled to himself about that. He waited for her to finsh and chuckled at her comment. "It sounded interesting."
