The Snow Prince
By: Elohim Masami
White all the world is covered in it, Walking along the snow covered ground making my way out of this forest and in to a clearing near the river. As I walked along I got the feeling I wasn't alone, Looking around I saw something walking to me. I froze in fear when I saw what it was.
I big white Siberian tiger, Its crystal blue eyes watching me walking towards me. All I could do was watch it, My legs couldn't move my whole body shaking. It came and sat in front of me looking at me, (Ok if your going to eat me, Make it quick.).
"Do not fear me Little One, I do not wish you any harm" a voice in my head said. "Ok that's freaky what was that" I asked out loud", "Hahaha...It was I, Most humans would not be able to hear my voice with in there mind. I have come to you to say that soon, very soon Little one you will meet my master." Laughed the tiger.
"Who is your master? Do I know him? Why me why am I so special to your master?" I asked one question after the other. I heard his laughter in my head. "Have patience little one, Soon all will be reviled".
It was then that a huge gust of wind came and surrounded me. "Soon little one soon" the tigers voice faded away.
I woke up and looked around my room, (Well that was some dream) I though and got up and headed to my bathroom. Taking a hot shower I wondered what my dream meant, Feeling the hot water flow down my body I felt myself relax.It's a good thing there's no school today, Toweling myself and wrapped myself in my towel I looked at what to wear for the day. Pulling on my tight white sweater with a cross on my left sleeve I grabbed my black ski pants and my black snow boots.
Made my way down to the kitchen and bumped in to dad who was in his bath rob, "Oh, Morning dad." I said with a smile. "Dad why are you in a bath rob?" I asked "W-well, You see Kai, Umm I was got up a little late this morning.. A-a-and I-I- I was just getting some coffee." Dad stuttered . ( Dad stuttering, Something's up Its written all over his face).
"Scott, how do you like your eggs?" Came a voice for the kitchen, (Oh so that's it) A smile grew on my face and dad turned red as a strawberry, It was so cute. My dad a big guy, 6'1 186lbs of muscles was blushing like a little school boy. And into the hall way stepped out Lilly in one of my dad's football jerseys and a pair of boxers. If I thought dad could blush I was wrong, Lilly turned bright as a cherry. I couldn't hold it in any more. I busted in to laughter, "Dad its ok I'm happy for the both of you." I said with a smile on my face. I walked up to him and gave him a hug and then turned to Lilly and Kissed her cheek and gave her a hug.
Dad smiled and put his arm on her shoulder, "Thank you Kai, that means a lot to both of us." Dad said smiling at me. "Kai baby, I know I couldn't and wouldn't take your mothers place but I would like for us to be great friends." Lilly said to me almost in tears, I smiled at her "Lilly when Mom died you were always there for us and I'm more that happy to have you as a mom and a friend, Just take care of dad for me. He's getting to old and he need taking care of." I said which made Lilly and me laugh.
"Alright you to come on and get your breakfast" Dad said from the kitchen. We made our way to the dinning room were there were waffles, pancakes, bacon and eggs all ready for us.Sitting down we at breakfast and talked about what were all going to do today, "So you and your friends going to ski today?" Lilly asked.
"Yup and um dad there's something I got to tell you." I said (Ok this is easy all I have to say is Dad I'm going on a date with a guy who's probably older then me). "What is it Kai?" Dad asked, "Well Dad I-I-I'm going on a date tonight." I stuttered out. "Oh well well Looks like I'm not the only one who's lucky today." Dad teased.
"Daaad, Come on stop teasing I don't know what to do. I've never been on a date before and I don't know what to wear." I said, "So Kai Who's this lucky guy? That's not asking to much is it, If you don't want to tell me that's ok." Lilly said kind of nerves. I laughed "Lilly its ok, His names Andrew and Well his kind of older then me, but he's really sweet and kind. When I look in his eye I feel happy like nothing I have ever felt before and when He holds me in his arms I feel like I melt in to his body." I said to both of them.
"Sounds like your in love, He must be something special." Lilly said with a smile on her face, "Just how old is this guy Kai?" Dad asked. (Oh man, I knew this was coming. Truth is I don't know myself.) "well I don't know dad, He looks like his 23 I think." I said whispering the last part.
Spraying out his OJ, "did you say 23" Dad asked, "Um yes." "Kai isn't that a bit to old for you I mean you 17 and this guys 23." Dad said. "Come on dad I mean you were older then mom right, So give me the chance to give it a go."
Dad sighed and Lilly held his hand and gave it a squeeze, "Alright but if this guy try's anything funny with you that you don't want to do, You let me know and I'll teach him a lesson." Dad said to me." Dad, He wouldn't do that he's a great guy trust me." I said to him. "Still, I'm your father and I'm only looking out for you. You maybe grown up but you always going to be my little boy." Dad said, I got up and kissed both his and Lilly's cheek. "I got to go, Matt's going to be waiting for me. So see you tonight." I said.
I grabbed my white cross jacket and my iPod and headed out. Walking down the street I played a song that fit what I was feeling I picked the song `Looking Through Your Eyes' Singed by Leann Rimes..
Look at the sky Tell me what do you see Just close your eyes And describe it to me The heavens are sparkling With starlight tonight That's what I see Through your eyes
I see the heavens Each time that you smile I hear your heartbeat Just go on for miles And suddenly I know My life is worth while That's what I see Through your eyes
[Chorus:] Here in the night I see the sun Here in the dark Our two hearts are one It's out of our hands We can't stop what we have begun And love just took me by surprise Looking through your eyes...
Here in the night I see the sun Here in the dark Our two hearts are one It's out of our hands We can't stop what we have begun And love just took me by surprise Looking through your eyes...
I look at myself And instead I see us Whoever I am now It feels like enough And I see a girl Who is learning to trust That's who I see through your eyes
[Chorus] Here in the night I see the sun Here in the dark Our two hearts are one It's out of our hands We can't stop what we have begun And love just took me by surprise Looking through your eyes...
Here in the night I see the sun Here in the dark Our two hearts are one It's out of our hands We can't stop what we have begun And love just took me by surprise Looking through your eyes...
And there are some things we don't know Sometimes a heart just needs to go And there is so much I'll remember Underneath the open sky with you forever
[Chorus] Here in the night I see the sun Here in the dark Our two hearts are one It's out of our hands We can't stop what we have begun And love just took me by surprise Looking through your eyes
Here in the night I see the sun Here in the dark Our two hearts are one It's out of our hands We can't stop what we have begun And love just took me by surprise Looking through your eyes
Walking to Matt house I passed Kyle's and looked at it, what is it going on with him. All the year that went by nothing like this ever happened before, Why is he acting this way now? I just shook my head and headed to Matt's.I made my was there and knocked on the door. It opened and Matt looked like he just woke up, Standing there with an A-shirt and pajama bottoms I had to admit that he looked hot. I shook my head and said "Oh lord don't tell me you just got up, Matt the guys are going to be pissed." I said to him. "Ya sorry about that late night. Come on in, I'll go take a shower." He said.
We made our way to his room and he went to take a shower, Looking at his room which by the way was a pigsty. (Same old Matt) I though to myself, I began to pick up his clothes and putting them in the laundry basket. Picking up the trash and throwing them in the trash can, and walked to his desk and sorted, fold his clothes. Made my way to his bed and made it up, "You know you'd make a great wife." Matt said in the door way to his bathroom.
"Jeez how can you live in here, No don't answer that." I said to him, "Well I'm like all the sexy young men in America. And its normal to have a room like this." He said to me. After making the bed I turned around to say something but I froze, Matt just leaned against the frame of the door looking at me. His body still a little wet from the shower and his hair still wet and looked hot.
"Umm, J-j-just who's r-r-room is like this?" I asked stuttering, "what's the matter Kai Like what you see." He asked with a smirk on his face. "Why don't I let you get ready, I'll be down stairs." I said and was out the door before he could say anything.Walking in to the kitchen his mom was making breakfast, "Good Morning Kai want something to eat dear?" She asked. "No thank you, I ate already." I said with a smile.
"Is that boy of mine up yet? I swear He could sleep all day I you don't come and wake him up." She said. "Yes he's up and he'll be down in a minute."
"Morning Mom, What's for breakfast?" Matt asked walking in to the kitchen. "Breakfast Burritos, Oh did you clean that room of yours yet?" His mom asked. "Kai cleaned it this morning because he's my wife." He said with a smirk.
His mom laughed and Blushed, "Kai you would make a man life happy, And Matt stop making Kai clean your room." She said. "I didn't make him mom, He did it on his own." He said. His mother just shook her head and smiled.
After eating his breakfast we went to his car and headed out to the slops up near the lodge.
When we got there the gang was waiting for us, Not looking to happy. "Two days in a row you two. What held you up this time?" Jen asked.
"sorry I got up late and I had to eat." Matt said, "Alright who's ready to Ski? " Matt asked a little to exited for my taste. Making our way to the ski lifts we headed up the mountain, "Alright lets do this, Kai your with me." "Jen your with Johnny and Kelly I got a special surprise for you.".
"Huh, what are you up to Matt. It better not be something stupid." Kelly said to Matt as we all walked to the benches with our skis. "Hi everyone thanks for asking me to come along." A voice behind us said, We all turned and saw it was Jack for the school baseball team. "And here's your partner for today Kelly, Jacks a great skier and He'll help you if you get in trouble." Matt said with a innocent smile.
Kelly turned red as an apple and Jack kind of blushed a little. "Hi Kelly, How are you doing?" Jack asked. "I-I-I'm doing a-a-alright." Kelly stuttered out. Jack smiled and took her hand and let them to the other bench.Matt grind like a fool and Johnny was doing his best not to laugh. Me and Jen just shook our heads. (Boy matt, you are so going to get it) I though to myself. "Matt she is going to kill you when this is over." Jen said and grabbed Johnny and took him to another bench.
"What did I do? She likes him, He likes her Just call me cupid". Matt said smiling at what he's done. "Come on Cupid boy let go." I said and pulled him to the bench. After getting ready we made our way to the edge of the hill. We skied for a few hours and headed in to the lodge for some hot coco and warm our selves by the fire. Kelly and Jack took the love seat, Jacks arm around Kelly and Kelly's head rested oh his shoulder. Matt and he sat one the two leg chairs and Jen and Johnny and the couch.
We talked about what were going to do the rest of winter break. And then Jen just had to ask the question I hope no one would asked. "So Kai who was that guy with you last night, You two looked pretty comfy out there by yourselves." Jen asked.Everyone looked at me wanting to know what was going on with me and Andrew. "Well His name is Andrew and I meet him at the pond three days ago." I began "We bumped in to each other at the pond that night and we skated and talked for a little while." I continued.
"We got something warm to drink and walked in the near by wood and just talked about stuff. And Well umm" I said (Should I tell them about the kiss). "Then what?" Jen asked wanting to know what else happened."Well He kissed me, Umm twice." I said feeling myself blush. I looked at everyone and Jen and Kelly smiled like there was no tomorrow, Johnny and Jack just smirked and Matt well Matt didn't look to happy.
"And well He asked me to go on a date with him tonight." I said quietly. Jen and Kelly Squealed and ran to my side, All giddy about my date tonight Johnny and Jack went to grab us some food. And Matt gut up and walked outside.I got up and walked out looking for him, When I got outside I looked for him. I saw him walking to the benches by the balcony. I walked to him and as I made my way to him I saw Is body shaking.
"Matt You ok" I asked quietly, He didn't answer me back. I walked up to him and put my hand on his shaking shoulder. "Matt come on what wrong" I asked him again. "What's wrong, what's wrong is you going on a date with this guy." He said a little bitter."You never even gave me a chance, and then this guy come's along and you only know him what two days and now your going out with him tonight." He asked getting more upset. "Matt I know your angry but you know I don't love you like that" I said trying to clam him down.
"But why, why won't you love me Kai, Why can't you love me like I love you?" He said almost begging me. "Matt I'm so sorry I can't return your feelings but I'm sure someday you'll find someone who love's you more then anything. But Please let me have the chance to love someone like you love me." I said to him."I just want you to be happy Kai, That's all I want." He said to me with a sad smile. I kissed his cheek and caressed his cheek. "Thank you Matt. And believe me you'll find someone who will love you with his whole heart." I said to him.
"Alright enough of this drama stuff, Lets go grab something to eat." Matt said. Putting his arm around me we made our way in side to our friends. I felt good about being here with them, We talked and had fun for a few more hours before we headed home.Matt dropped me off at my house, "Hey If this guy tries anything funny with you I'll kick his ass." He said to me. "Don't worry Matt he won't do anything like that. He's to nice." I said to him. "Alright, Good luck on your date." He said and I waved good by to him.
Walking in to the house I went up stairs and got in to the shower, After that I went to check on what to wear tonight. I got out a white buttoned shirt with a cross sown on the back and a smaller one on the front and a pair of Black Jeans, I got my mom's crystal necklace and put it on. I got my white boots and put on my white cross jacket.
I walked to the kitchen and got a bottle of water out and saw a note from dad `Kai the keys to the jeep is on the desk by the door, Good luck on your Date. Love Dad.' I walked and got the keys and made my way out to my car which was in the shop getting a new paint job. I opened the garage and saw the new paint job on my baby, my 2003 Jeep Liberty looked great in white.
I got in and drove to the lodge. I got out and made my way in, I took a deep breath and walked in. I walked in and the seating hostess said "May I help you sir?" She asked, "Umm Yes I'm here to meet some on He's name is Andrew." "Oh yes right this way please." She took a menu and I followed her in to the restaurant, as I walked in looked around the place and it was beautiful soft lighting and everything looked like something out of the movies.
She led me to a privet room that over looked the valley below and the woods looked amazing in the moonlight covered in snow. I sat down and waited for my date, "Would you like something to drink while you wait?" the hostess asked, "Water please." I said with a smile. "Alright, anything else while you wait?" She asked " No that about it, thank you." I said back to her.
I got up and walked to the picture window and looked out at the view. "Breath taking isn't it" I voice said I looked back and saw the man who held my heart.
