“... I love you, Alice ”
Grace’s pov
Light… it comes to us in many forms. When we most need it, when we least expect it. When we feel the darkness overwhelming our soul, our body, our hearts. And just when we hit rock bottom we can only start climbing back up. Light is what rules the world, light is what rules us.
“I wanted to give you this when we went on our date but I guess you will have to receive it now”
I took the neatly wrapped present and handed it gently
“But.. I didn’t get you anything”
“Just open it” I said with anticipation in my voice
Alice unwrapped the brown-ish paper revealing the diary and calligraphy set
“Grace...this is so beautiful”
“Open on the first page”
Alice started reading out loud
“
discovering your secret eyes,
your only true and safe disguise.
pour your heart in ink if you need it,
I’ll be your diary, I won’t repeat it
but in case you keep your writing to shine
the least you can do is promise me you’re mine?
”
“Alice, can I call you mine?”
“Grace, can I call you mine?”
No words were needed from there, we knew the answer and we felt it deeply. Alice took me in for a kiss but this one was different, this one was a locked kiss. She was mine and I was hers.
“Did you write this?”
“Yes,I did. Do you like it?”
“I love it. From now on I will be writing in this, I will be writing about you, about us”

I placed her arms around my shoulders and lifted her on the kitchen counter holding her as close as possible. My kiss was exploring her soft skin, her neck - inch by inch. My hands were placed on her thighs which were wrapped around my waist. Her hands were searching for the same intimacy as mine. Her perfume was poisonous, it drove me insane. I wanted to be one with her, keep her as close as possible. My eyes met hers. Those crystal eyes. I leaned back in and whispered in her ear:
“I love you Scarlet”
