DARK ROMANCE

"It's okay Elisia"
"I promise"
"It's okay Elisia"
I opened my eyes and was greeted with darkness, turning over on my side. Julian wasn't next to me anymore, but the whole room was dark. I maybe got an hour of sleep before the ringing in my ears came back and his voice.
His fragile voice rang in my ears.
I closed my eyes and saw blood, but I needed to calm my breathing before I panicked again.
I just needed to breathe.
I heard a faint voice inside the bathroom and the more I tried to calm myself the more I realized it was Julian's voice. My whole body relaxed and my mind seemed to quiet down a little. It sounded like he was on the phone and I couldn't make out what he was saying, but that didn't matter, his voice was sending me at ease and that's all I could take right now.
I stared at the wall and when I started to drift off to sleep again all I saw was Alex. Struggling to breathe. Trying to tell me that I needed to calm down and it was okay, looking at me like I needed to let him go before his gaze landed on the stars and he stilled in my arms.
I hope the stars gave him hope. Made him believe in something else. I wondered if he thought they were beautiful, shining so bright when things weren't so bright for us.
"It's okay Elisia"
It wasn't okay.
"Elisia" I jumped at Julian's voice realizing he was on his haunches in front of me. His hair was wet and he had nothing but sweats on. He reached his hand out and wiped at my face. I hadn't realized I was crying until now, closing my eyes I took in the way he smelt and the way he was touching me.
"Who were you on the phone with?" I whispered with my eyes still closed, trying to find a distraction. It seemed like my voice couldn't go anywhere higher than a whisper.
Julian hesitated before he answered me in a low tone "Luis"
My heart grew more empty hearing his name, sending more water into my eyes. Julian's hand left my face and then I felt him move and then suddenly I was being lifted then brought onto a hard chest. I once again fell asleep in the comfort of him because he was the only other one to bring me peace.
Because as he ran his hands through my hair and down my back it eased the pain in my chest a little and my mind full of racing thoughts went slightly quiet.
