The Castle on the Moon

Chapter Two: Eric

Lisa tried to convince Lilly that traveling to earth would be a terrible idea but to no avail. She was certain she’d meet her literal dream guy there and no one nor anything would stop her. Lisa reluctantly joined seeing as how she was her advisor and promised Lilly’s parents she’d look after her. That was over 160 years ago though. Letting out a small sigh Lisa sat on the giant crystal bed belonging to Lilly. “And you’re sure of this?” Lilly shook her head. “You’re ready to go once the sun makes its way around the earth again, yes?” She questioned. Again, Lilly shook her head yes. Lisa stood up and walked out closing the bedroom door behind her. Lilly didn’t want to know what the future held and she didn’t care. Lilly’s main focus was to find out who this guy was and maybe ask him if he had been dreaming of her too. She finished packing and sat on the bed. The window was still open from last time when Lilly was looking down at earth. It looked interesting, bright, and colorful. She had only heard stories from others who had been to earth before but she had heard all wonderful things. Closing her eyes Lilly’s thoughts went to the mysterious stranger again. She could always only see the outline of his face with a square jawline, dark hair and of course those ears. The same ears she had been seeing for so long that had become ingrained in her memory. The thoughts of her touching and caressing them sent Lilly into a frenzy. At this point, Lilly had laid back on the bed and began to touch herself to the thoughts of the man in her dream. She could only see a part of his face but it was enough to send her over the edge. She pleasured herself to thoughts of him throughout the night until she finally grew too tired and fell asleep. As she slept more images of the man flashed in her dreams. She saw a little more of his face this time but not too much. Lilly woke up frustrated but hopeful.

Suddenly her maid appeared in the doorway. “You have a guest,” your majesty, she said bowing and walking away. Lilly wondered who could be coming over so early in the morning. She had a handful of friends and barely any enemies. The moon and the kingdom had lived peacefully alongside the other planets since the last war thousands of years ago. Lilly put on her long pink flowered gown with silver trim. After adjusting her Afro and having her servants spray her down with perfume, she was ready. ‘Who could this be though,’ Lilly kept thinking to herself. The walk to front of the castle seemed as if it were never ending this morning. The sky was still dark and the stars were shining bright through the crystal glass castle. Lilly sauntered into the parlor and stopped in her tracks. “What are you doing here?” She asked sternly.
