"I don't want to go yet," she breathed, the tips of our noses touching. She smelled like sandalwood, reminding me of her room.
"I don't want you to go too," I whispered back, holding her. I wasn't ready to lose her yet. "We can keep pretending," I said.
"That I exist?" she asked, pulling away.
"You do. You exist from the past-" That's when I realised. She was never one of us.
"Play it again," she said, gesturing to the piano. I obliged, and played Fur Elise, the piece which started it all. My fingers flew over the keys, with my eyes closed.
When I finished, she was already gone.
