I walk in timidly, as I get stared, winked and smiled at by some of the boys there, Ace starts acting protectively and wraps his arm around my waist. After a while Ace goes to fetch some drinks as I hopelessly, and aimlessly, make my way through the crowd. A boy winks at me and I giggle slightly, he obviously takes this as an invitation to walk up to me. He has blond hair and green eyes, also in the uniform of the soldiers. He grabs me by the waist and pulls me into him. "So, what's your name beautiful?"
"It's Lydia, how about you?"
"I love it. The name's Lysandre." He smirks at me and leans into me as I start to blush, He looks down at me as I look up into his eyes. "Are you one of those hopeless romantic types, Lysandre?" I smile up at him as he nods. "That explains a lot." He laughs and strokes my cheek, making me blush further.
"I haven't really seen you around, but the name rings a bell. When did you arrive?"
"I am the rebel Ace dragged in." I smirk as he gives off a look of confusion. "Afraid of a rebel soldier are we?"
"No, I just never knew girls in sectors were as pretty as you, otherwise I would do way more field work." I laugh as we continue to dance. He leans down and kisses me and, to my surprise, I kiss back. Breaking away, I hear cheers and laughter as I stand up. Quietly, I say,"Sorry, that was a mistake."
"A good mistake." I push him away, then walk off. "Come on Lyds, what do you say? You could be mine." Rolling my eyes, I shout back, "I'm already Ace's!" I move so that he can't follow me and I eventually find Ace. "Why can't boys just take a hint?" He laughs and nods. I punch him lightly on the shoulder and he kisses my cheek, blushing, I take his hand and pull him into the crowd, ignoring the people around me. Wrapping our arms around each other, we sway side to side, I rest my head on his chest as he strokes my hair. "Can it just stay like this?"
"I wish it could, but you know it can't." I start to quietly sob into Ace's uniform. Lifting up my chin, he kisses me and all of a sudden stops and turns around. It's the commander. "Ace, I can see that you are in the middle of something, but I would just like to say, thank you for serving us." He salutes and walks off. Just then Lysandre appears behind Ace and I blush. Ace laughs and kisses me, turning me bright red but I close my eyes and melt into him. When I open my eyes I see people all around us cheering and laughing. I take a sarcastic bow and walk off, Ace following behind. We walk back and collapse on the bed. Sitting up, I undo my dress letting it drop around my waist, Ace looks at me and I nod.
Finshed BucketlistI wake up, next to Ace, who is still asleep. Looking down at myself I blush in embarrassment at the state of me, did I really let myself go that much? "Luckily the bucketlist is finished now..." I quickly get dressed into some shorts and a really saggy t-shirt. Laughing at how big it is on me, I sit back down on the bed and place Ace's head on my lap and stroke his hair. Slowly, he starts to wake up, he smiles up at me and sits up. "Love you, my beautiful Lydia."
"Love you too, Ace."
