TRUST - Lo'ak x OC

       THE SILENCE WAS comfortable, and so was the familiar bright light ahead of her. All around her was the forest, except that everything seemed in a distant memory. It didn't feel like the present moment.

Kxilyä's ears pricked up at the sounds of laugher in the distance. She turned, stalking up towards it. As the voices became louder, her eyes landed on a family.

Her family.

Her heart skipped a beat as she stepped forwards.

' Look dad, I got one! ' young Kxilyä laughed, holding up the fish on a spear.

' Look at you, mighty fisher! That's a big one! ' Her father smiled, taking the spear out of young Kxilyä's hand. ' we'll cook this one. '

' Do I get to eat it? ' She questioned, looking back towards the pond she found the fish in. He nodded.

' Come, let's go show your mother.' Her father picked her up, throwing her over his shoulder as she squealed in laughter.

' Dad, put me down!'' She said through laughs, her hair dangling in front of her face.

Kxilyä smiled at the memory. She watched as they walked out of view, her heart aching to follow. She missed her father.

Kxilyä continued walking, as her surroundings shifted, and she was now in the Ometicaya stronghold. Her gaze landed on her younger self, when she was around 15.

She was with Rìhai. Her and Rìhai had snuck out, and were behind a tree, making out.

Her smile dropped.

This had been the night she'd found out he cheated on her. The same hands that lay on her waist now, were once on another woman's a couple hours ago.

But no matter how much hatred and pain in her heart that she held for Rìhai, apart of her still loved him. Still yearned for him, like an unspoken word.

He was her first love.

' I fucking love you, Kxilyä'. ' Rìhai growled against her neck, as his hands explored her body.

' Stop playing with me. ' Young Kxilyä responded.

You know what happened after that.

Kxilyä chuckled softly. She had remembered this moment. This moment was when she had no worries in her life, and she missed it.

' Kxilyä? Kxilyä, wake up! '

What?

' Please open your eyes. Please just- '

She gasped awake, water choking out of her lungs. Her head ached, as her surroundings grounded.

' Oh thank god. ' Lo'ak gasped, holding her body against his.

Those moments of peace, where she felt no worries in her life, we're gone. They were replaced once more. She wished to go back.
