Sometimes when the world ends all you need is someone beside you. To live and cherish you. But at the same time you have to look out and protect yourself, 'cause no one else will.
When Eira comes to a difficult decisions to make, will she make the r...
"Alright, now it's your turn, i told you about me, now you tell me about you..." - I sigh and look down. I don't even know where to begin.
I smile and look up. No way i'm telling him about myself... i don't even know this dude. I lift my hand and pat his shoulder couple of times and then i just stand up. "Just because you saved me doesn't mean i'm gonna tell you my whole life story." - I say and look at him, he looks up at me and it's like he tries to read my mind . And suddenly he stands up and now i'm looking up and he's looking down at me. We're standing so close to each other, and i can smells him. He smells nice. Like woods and you know that i like woods. Something came over me and i just hugged him around his waist and put my head to his chest. I was not expecting it but he put his hands around me and it felt like he tried to pull me closer.
It felt so good to hug someone other then my mom... But something told me it was wrong so i pulled back, I grabbed my phone off the counter and started to walk away when a hand grabbed mine and i stopped. I turn around and look at him. "Everyone dies around me... it's like i am a walking death just roaming the streets looking for some other victim..." - I say and furrow my eyebrows. "That's not true... and you know it" - He tries to calm me and he's not letting my hand go, he still holds his grip onto me. "You don't even know me." - I say annoyed.
"I've been keeping an aye on you ever since we met." - "You're a normal girl, just a bit lost and lonely..." - He says and i raise one eyebrow. "So you were stalking me..." - I say and he laughs and i join him. "I chose to be alone..." - I say and now he furrows his eyebrows. "Why would you do that ?" - " To keep the people i love safe." - i simply say. He just looks at me , it's like he doesn't know what to say at that. I take his hand after he lets go of mine and say : "Come..." - and i lead him out the doors onto to the street. "Where are you taking me ?" - He asks and i let go of his hand and turn around. Now i'm walking with backwards. "You'll see..." - I say and turn around and keep walking. "It's almost a sunset..." - I add and he just follows.
We kept walking 'bout 15 minutes in complete silence. It was so quiet out here that i think i could here the wind blowing , the trees moving and leaves falling. I was never looking at the same spot , i looked everywhere where i can put my eyes on. I was a bit confused that there was no vamps , no werewolves and no demons... or other supernatural creatures.
We came to a place i've been living in, I opened the door and went in. He just followed me. We go to my room upstairs and go to the balcony and start to climb up to the roof. " wow... what are you doing ?" - He asks and i look down at him and then back , and just continue climbing. When i got on the roof i looked down to see Theo staring up at me. "Come , you'll miss everything..." - I say and walk to my usual spot where i sit and watch the sun set. Theo got on the roof in couple of seconds, i pat the spot next me to as an invite for him to sit. He comes to me and sits down and looks straight. "Do you know why i chose this house to spend couple of nights in ?" - I ask him while looking at the beautiful view of the sky. "No, why ?" - He asks. "Cause you can see everything from here. The sunset, the sunrise... The woods and other houses..." - He just hums in response.
"Me and my sister used to watch sunset everyday too. I was always busy... whether i was working or fighting... she would always come up to me and say - "It's almost time, you'll miss everything..." - And i always dropped everything i was doing, just to go and watch sunset with her..." - A tear slides down my cheek and i smile a bit.
Flashback
I was in the garden , training with my mom, some new moves she wanted to show me. "That's not fair..." - she hits me with a staff to my back just before i knock her down ... I lay a bit on the ground and then stand up. "Don't ever turn your back to the enemy... " - She says and i see her looking somewhere else. I turn around to see my sister standing there , just watching us train. "It's almost time, you'll miss everything..." - She says and runs into the house , i look up to the sky and see that it's almost a sunset. I turn around and look at my mother. I raise my eyebrows at her and she just nods and smiles. I pick up my staff and run to the house. I leave the staff at the door and run upstairs, i climb out the window and onto the roof. My sister was sitting there already. Watching the sunset. I quickly and quietly go up to her and sit down next to her. Today the sunset was the most beautiful one i have ever seen. It was all the colors. We have a clear look at the woods too and that made it even better.
I take my sisters hand in mine and look at her. "You don't have to be scared !" - I tell her and she looks at me. "Why do you think that i'm scared ? - She asks while looking at me. " 'cause even i'm scared... and i've been out the gates... you haven't..." - I pause - "If i'm scared, you should be too..." - I say and i can fell her get bit tense. "But don't worry, a fear is an enemy and most of the times you can defeat the enemy... sometimes it just takes time." - I try to make the situation better.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you no matter what !" - I look at her and smile. She smiles back at me and we continue to watch the sunset.
End Of the Flashback.
"What happened ?" - He asks and i furrow my eyebrows. "Me and my mom , we usually go out for food and other things we need at the center... my sister usually didn't come with us.. she wasn't like that. She mostly wanted to stay at home. And if she ever came with us she usually went with one of us. We always split up, to get more things in less time. She wanted to go with me , but i told her to go with mom. We split up and they went to the grocery store . They got attacked and they killed her..." - I tell him. He puts his hand over mine and I quickly take it away from his reach.
