Dearest Celtieon…
My Darling DarkStar…
The Love Of My Life, my Darling Celtieon…
Dearest DarkStar…
Alesha stared at the screen wondering if she'd made the right decision in agreeing to meet her mystery man all alone. She picked up the phone and dialed Leighanne's number. "Hello, Brian. Is Leah around?"
"No, she went out with some friends. What'cha need?"
"Oh, nothing really. Just wanted to talk to someone. Lori and AJ are with Howie and Rebecca so I can't call her or Howie."
"Wanna talk to me? I'm a pretty good ear to bend."
Alesha laughed. "It's okay. Don't want to bother you."
"Not bothering me," he said.
Smiling Alesha said, "Well, has Leah told you about DarkStar?"
"Oooh. The mysterious comic boy?" Brian asked.
"Umm…yeah. Well, he wants me to meet him tomorrow."
"Oh? Really? Where?"
"At the mall here in Tampa."
"Hmmm. How odd. Okay. Are you going?"
Alesha shrugged. "Yeah, probably. I want to find out who I've been talking to." Alesha was quiet for a moment. "Have you talked to Nick lately?"
Brian almost choked on the soda he'd just taken a drink of. Coughing, he managed to say, "Yes."
"Does he know about this dude?"
Brian, his voice scratchy from coughing, squeaked, "Yeah. He's the one who told me that DarkStar was a comic book. He thinks you're crazy for talking to a complete stranger online."
"Hmm…"
"Why?" Brian asked curious.
"I don't know. This guy seems so familiar to me. He uses lyrics from ya'lls songs. He talks about stars and stuff…he just seem so…so…NICK."
Brian laughed. "Well, I'm pretty sure it's not Nick. He seemed a little more than just upset that you were getting cozy with a Net Nerd. He was ready to track him down."
Alesha giggled. "He's not a Net Nerd." She sighed. "Oh well. I didn't think it was him. I was just wondering. Anywho, I have to go. I'll talk with you later."
"Okiedokie darlin. Good luck tomorrow."
"Thanks. Bye," she said hanging up. Shaking her head, she turned off the computer and went in the front room.
Why haven't you replied to me? You're don't come online anymore, or if you do, I don't see you. Did I do something to hurt you? Did I scare you away with my declaration of love for you? I'm sorry if my feelings turned you away from me. I can't honestly say that I'm sorry for falling in love with you. I'll never regret that. Tell me darling that you feel nothing for me and I'll walk away never bother you again. Even if it's just a strong feeling of like, I'll be satisfied. Please talk to me. Just open your heart and say what's on your mind. You've been through so much pain. I want to try to erase as much of that as I can. I want you in my life darling. I need you in my life. I'm sure in time you'll understand that what I feel is right. I miss you so much babygirl…
Forever Yours…DarkStar
What does one say when presented with a letter filled with such emotion, such trust and feeling? There is no way that any words I say can match the beauty of those that you wrote to me. To say I love you, I believe is a little much. To say I feel nothing is a lie. I guess my emotions are somewhere in between. You see, my heart is no longer mine to give. Unless the love that I've given to the one that pushed me away is released, I can not give it away. Everything that I am is still his. Tied to him with a bond that I can not understand. I don't know how else to explain it other than to say that I will never be able to be free of him. I'm sorry if this hurts you. I'll understand if you don't want to talk to me anymore. I never meant to lead you on. I thought perhaps I could love again, but I fear that I'm incapable of feeling such a strong emotion. I'm sorry.
Forever bound to one who no longer cares…Celtieon
To know that your heart is kept prisoner by another, tears me apart. But given time I'm sure that something more will grow from what you feel. That is if you will give me the chance. I want to show you that all I have is for you. That all I feel is for you. And anything you want from me is yours. I love you and all that is you. Even without meeting you face to face I know that you are the one for me. I so much wish I could tell you my feelings in person. Will you please meet me? Tomorrow. At noon. Outside of the watch store in the University Square Mall. Please don't bring anyone, as it would take away from the moment. I know that sounds crazy, but I want it to be special for us. Not shared with people that I don't know. Please? It IS a public place after all **smiles**
Forever solely and wholly yours…DarkStar
I will meet you tomorrow. Alone. At noon. Outside of the watch store (although that is a crazy place to meet…I use to work there ya know).
Until then my darling…Celtieon
