ALTHOUGH I WISHETH MY DREAMETHS COME THIS WAY NOT. DISCLAIMER:I DONT OWN ANY OF MEG CABOT'S CHARACTORS NOR DO I OWN THE STORY SHE WROTE.

My boyfriend, Will, stays in my house

My boyfriend, Will, stays in my house. And my parents who own the house stay there too. Making one awkward living situation. I will not go into specifics but somehow I got into this kind of reincarnation situation. Where my Will is King Arthur, his best friend, lance, is sir Lancelot, Will’s ex is Queen Guinevere and I am none other than some lady of the lake. Crazy I know, and I didn’t even go into details.

Mr. Morton made is so that I could graduate early (thank Merlin) and now I could stay with Will and we could go to college together! Mr. Morton did this so that if a situation arises, Lance, Jen, and me could all be there to help Will through it. Mr. Morton thinks that the dark forces should be avoiding us but just in case, we should all be there.

And so that is why Will and I are now packing to go to Camelot University.

“Do you need anything washed, Will?” I called to him from across the hall.

“No why?” he replied as he came into my room

“I’m gonna start a new load and its going to be small so I thought hey lets not waste water, so I asked you”.

He looked at me and then he sprang at me. All of a sudden his lips were on mine. I yielded to it and Will began to deepen the kiss. As his arm looped around my waste, we tripped over something and fell into a heap of giggles.

“What was that about?” I managed to gasp because how did laundry become romantic.

“I just…well I just …love you” He stammered. Whoa that was sudden, he had never said I love you before. I was not prepared for it. Will began to dissect my expression and quickly added

“You don’t have to say it back; I just wanted you to know”

“Will, I love you too” I said in a soft gentle tone and then I smiled a soft smile. And Will’s mouth turned up at the corner and then grew into a full on grin.

I then heard the pounding of footsteps coming up the stairs. As my mother looked in my room she smiled and simply said “Young love is so cute” and sighed as she walked back downstairs.

Will and I started cracking up on the floor. We laughed together for a couple minutes and then Will stood up and stated “I really need to finish packing, and then you and I could maybe go for a swim. It’s unusually warm today”.

I nodded my head and told him it would be a good idea.

So around 2ish me and him got our bathing suits on and went for a swim.

When me and Will swim together we basically talk the entire time. My dad drove down to that one Wal-mart type store to buy another raft for Will so that Will can float with me. So when I and he go for a swim, it’s a basic floating date.

As we both got onto our rafts, I looked at the sky. It was a clear blue shade today with scattered clouds of wisp. Will looked over at me from his raft and asked “What are you thinking?” in a soft wondering tone.

I looked over at him, his eyes brooding. “I was wondering what college is going to be like”

“I wonder that too, about college. I hope to learn a lot more than of what we are learned at Avalon”.

Will, always the inquisitive one.

It was quiet for a while, could have been minutes could have been an hour. I really like that about Will. He doesn’t always have to talk or fill every quiet time with useless chatter. For him awkward silences don’t exist. Its nice not have to worry about having to fill in the silences.

Then suddenly our rafts bumped. They bumped side by side as if they were one floater instead of two. Both our eyes flew open and then Will reached over to my face to give me a small tender kiss.

“I am going to get the both of us some lemonade”. He got out of the pool and went to the porch door and went in.

A few minutes later he came back and handed me a glass. He didn’t come back in the pool, simply sat on the edge of the deck with his legs hanging down into the pool.

“Your parents decided to go out tonight so we have to make our own dinner. If its okay with you I am going to cook my queen a feast” he smiled at me then. The smile was breathtaking and he looked like the happiest king in the U.S.

I lifted my eyebrow and asked “You cook?”

“ No,” he replied “I am just going to experiment on you”

I looked at him now with both eyebrows lifted

He saw my expression and laughed and finally said “Of course I cook, silly Elle”

We got out of the pool around 4 and I told Will I was going to take a shower. He was fine with it and used the twenty minutes to prepare the table which when I came out of the shower, was decorated with a white tablecloth and a few cream colored candles. I listened for Will as pots and pans banged in the kitchen.

I went back into the bathroom and decided to dry my hair nice and straight. After my hair was straightened to a pulp, I went into my room and got out one of my old dresses I had used for a dance at the other school I had went to.

This was my favorite dress. It was white with small black poka-dots scattered over it. The dress flattered my curves and made my long legs look amazing. Before I went out I took a swift look in the mirror and was satisfied with my appearance.

I entered the kitchen to find Will finishing up the stir fry he was making. He must not have heard me enter because when I said “yum smells good” he swiftly turned around and his eyes looked surprised. After he realized I was dressed up he looked me over and grinned. I grinned back.

“Why did you decide to wear a dress?” He wondered.

“I saw the table dressed up so I wanted to match”.

He smiled and laughed a small laugh and turned back to the stir fry.
