All the wait paid off well. The time had a very sweet way to make things look even better. Her fiery hair was longer, and now that it was finally free from those strange ties girls use these days, it was like a fire crown over her head. Making it almost impossible not play with her tin curls. He had watched her go around and about and was relieved to see that those mesmerizing eyes that once were full of fear now exhibited pride, love and the unique wisdom that only those who waltzed with Death could display.
He took a seat by the small coffee table, watching the girl sleeping. 'This couch can't be comfortable.' He looked up to the stairs, he knew why she was down. ' Some wounds never truly heal".
"Shadow.." the girl talked in her sleep. Oh... how much he missed her voice." Is that you ?"
The dark figure double checked if she was sleeping. " I missed you Sparkle." she smiled to him. He knew that wherever his heart was, it was beating fast with joy.
"I missed you too!" her sleeping face was frowning to him " Are you real ? The people with important names told me that you are just a creation of my head."
He didn't hold his own chuckle, the girl's pout only made her look more adorable. "Reality is as frail as a crystal glass my Little Sparkle. As long as you believe, I am real ..." her smell was so good, so pure, so clean, and so vulnerable.
"I don't know what to believe anymore." she changed position. " I am scared right now. But I don't wanna be alone again."
" I'll be here Sparkle, even when you don't see me, I'll be there."
"Like my own stalker?" she giggled in her slumber.
"Something like that." she was smiling again."Sparkle, do you remember our promise?" she didn't remember it and he knew it.
" Sorry Shadow. I can't organize the memories about you." He was surprised and pleased with the fact that she didn't lied to him. 'Good Girl' " Can you tell me what it was?"
"I'm afraid it's not that simple Little One." she frowned, confused. " But I'll do the best I can to help you remember it."
"Thanks Shadow. Of all the things they told me to try and forget about. You are the only thing I don't want to let go of."
This was painful for him. Deep down he felt guilty for being selfish back then. He could easily erase those painful memories away, but he didn't want her to forget about him as well. ' Danm it I wanna hold her.' "Here is your first clue:
'By the rise of November's first full moon, The Unforgiving will cross the bridge under Dark River, craving innocent blood'. And that was the first lie"
It was time for him to leave her, for now. The sun was rising and soon his Little Sparkle would awake." Tik-Tak Sparkle. Tik" he leaned over her ear" Tak."
