RapunzelI wasn’t completely stupid but my curiosity got the better of me. I wanted to know what love-making meant.“Fine, I will untie you but you must promise to tell me what this love-making thing is,” I told him.He rolled his eyes and nodded with his lower lip lost between his teeth. “I will do more than that, I will show you,” he said.I untied him and sat back to watch what he was about to do. The entrance was locked and the only way out was through the window mother usually came through. He wouldn’t be able to leave even if he wanted to. He was truly my prisoner.“Is there a room we could be to… learn this?” he said and I raised my brow.I might not be very exposed but I knew what people did in bedrooms and I was more than happy to show him open. If he did that to me, then I might keep him longer than I intended. “There is… come with me,” I said flashing him a smile.I started walking toward the stairs and he was more than happy to follow me. I had noticed his eyes had darken
RapunzelI ran to the window by the corridor and I let down my hair for her to take up to the castle. I loosened it completely and I let it drop to its full length. It was the length of the castle and just enough for mother to take to bring herself up. "Good morning mother," I said to her as she stepped out of the window. "Morning," she replied glaring at me. “What took you so long?” she asked with her nose in the air. I could tell she was irritated by that one act.“I am sorry mother. I was deep in sleep and I didn’t hear you call,” I lied. I couldn’t tell her what exactly I was doing she would throw him out and I would leave to regret my foolishness.She narrowed her eyes at me and turned away as she started making her way to my room. My heart dropped to my stomach as I saw her move to my room. What was she going to do if Noah hadn’t found a place to hide yet?“Mother- wait!” I yelled as I rushed towards her.She stopped moving and stared at me cautiously. “Rapunzel, what is wrong
RapunzelI sat down staring at Noah as he ate his food. To me, it was a great sight to behold. I had never seen the opposite sex before. Though I read about them in books and I had seen pictures of what they looked like but the pictures and the book had not done enough justice to them. Or maybe it was just Noah who was too good-looking. My mother had never been helpful when it came to descriptions of men. I had asked my mother countless times about males but she always felt like questions like that would lead me astray.Noah suddenly coughed and I snapped out of my trance. I noticed he had finished eating his toast. "You are done with the food," I said as I got up from the chair I had occupied."You seem lost. What is wrong?" He asked instead."It was nothing," I replied with a smile on my face. I continued, "I will take out the plates. Then, I will pack some food. I think we should go for a picnic while sightseeing."I went out of the room through the door to the staircase and strai
Noah"Will you stop flattering me?" she retorted with a smile her face. Her smile was the most beautiful I have seen. It brightened my heart and made evil thoughts disappear. I felt like an innocent baby just staring at her. She brought thoughts I never had the luxury to even imagine."I am not flattering you. I am just telling you the truth, you know," I said huskily. She couldn’t sense it yet but I wanted her and I couldn’t stop myself. I moved closer and stretched my hands to her cheeks. They were so soft, I couldn’t stop there. I wanted to kiss her. I have been wanting to do that since we left the room.“What are you doing?” she whispered as I leaned slightly against her. I smiled at her question. She was so naïve yet so beautiful. “I want you,” I whispered.Her eyes shut up and she was about to open her lips to ask something else but I didn’t let her. I claimed her lips. The first time I had kissed her, she was shocked for a couple of minutes before she started moving but this t
NoahWe both fell asleep on the couch. And for the first time in my life, I dreamt about a future with a family I had always wanted. I saw two little girls with golden hair run towards me as I stood by a beach. They were calling me father and as I picked them up they placed kisses on my cheeks. “Father, look at mother!” they chorused happily. I turned to where their cute little fingers were pointed and I saw Rapunzel. She was their mother. I smiled as this was what my subconscious had wished for since the very first day we met. I started to smile but my smile soon died down as my eyes landed on her hair. They were not long anymore. They looked chopped and they stopped right under her chin. It didn’t take from her beauty but it made her look strange. I started opening my mouth to speak but I slipped out of the dream as a loud voice filled the night air.“Rapunzel, let down your hair!” the voice said. It was her mother. She had said the very same thing when she came home earlier. But
RapunzelMy heart was beating so fast I thought it would jump out of my body. I turned to stare at Noah but he had his eyes narrowed at the door like he was planning on attacking my mother. He didn’t like the way my mother locked me up and used my hair that much I could tell from his questions but she was my mother and I couldn’t change that.“Rapunzel, I am waiting don’t make me break this door!” my mother snapped and I jerked out of my thoughts.I opened my mouth to speak but my throat was dried. I had to swallow hard on my saliva to be able to bring out even a gasp as panic slowly slipped into my bones. I ran to the door and held it.“Mo –mother!” I called with a stammer.“Rapunzel open this door!” she screamed.I turned to stare at Noah with pleading eyes. He had to leave the center of the room before I could open the door or there would be trouble –more trouble than either of us bargained for. We stayed this way for less than two seconds but it felt like an entire hour had passed
NoahRapunzel and I kept caressing one another until she fell asleep. On the other hand, I couldn’t sleep. What she had told me today and what I had witnessed with her mother made me start looking at the situation with another mindset. The princess of our land was said to be very beautiful before she got kidnapped by an old wicked witch and ever since then, no one had been able to see her. The princess had magical healing powers too and all who touched her found this healing. The people of the town, celebrated her birthday every year and that was why candles were lit up in the sky to appease her innocent soul.But as Rapunzel spoke of her story, I started thinking of the possibility of her being our lost princess. I would have to look at the picture of the castle clearly again to be able to tell. For the princess was really little when she got kidnapped.Which then, brought me to my plans. I would have to take Rapunzel to the palace. The queen would have to see her and confirm if she
RapunzelAs Noah held me, I couldn’t stop thinking of what my mother had said to me. It meant she had another way of accessing the castle all this while but she had chosen to use my hair without considering if it would hurt me or not –not like it used to hurt terribly but I expected her to care at least."We need to leave early," Noah whispered to me. “You have been sitting here for too long. You will get cold,” he added.I had become numb. My mother really broke my heart. She refused to even recognize that today was my birthday. I was hurt beyond reason and if it wasn’t for Noah’s presence here I would have been the most miserable. She didn’t even stay home with me. She had left me on my birthday-“Rapunzel, I have so much to show you in the city, we need to leave now!” Noah insisted and in turn to look at him. He was such a good person. Mother had lied to me. The people outside the castle weren’t cruel or wicked. She was the wicked one!I got up from the bathroom floor and smiled at
