She's waiting on her true love while he's waiting for his soulmate.
One wishes for a happily ever after while the other wishes for total destruction.
One embraces the light while the other caresses the darkness.
Ember learns a few thing in life...
At times, I feel a tickling sensation in my back. As if feathers are prickling under my skin. A week after I seen Lazarus in his full demon form; I started to have weird daydreams and dreams in general. Like yesterday in class, Lazarus clicked his long fingers and made a lopsided grin that hasn't been placed on his face before. As soon as I saw this, a headache came on and like a flashback, I saw a young Lazarus in a small classroom full of student bodies.
"Ember, do you know what the answer to question two is?" The older lady in front of me asks. Petrified, I shake my small child head no.
"Lazarus, do you?" She turns to him and asks. I glance over at the small boy as he snaps his small fingers and makes a lopsided grin.
"Yes I do. The answer is wolfsbane." His small voice sounds cocky for his age.
Just like that the flashbacks end, along with my headache. Today is the Saturday, meaning no school. All day I've had headaches and random memories pounding through my brain cell walls and hitting me full force. At times, the foggy memories make me light headed and dizzy. It's been an hour since the last memory landed me straight on my ass, literally. The last thirty minutes I have been checking my peek hole in a spying manor for Lazarus to come back to his dorm. I know it sounds insane but for some reason my body is needing him. For some reason, I need him. Here I am for the millionth and one time checking the hallway through my peek hole. This time, I have hit the jackpot in timing because Lazarus is standing outside his door. I quickly unlock my door and swing it open. I have no clue what I'm going to say nor do I know what the hell I'm doing. Before I can think of anything, my mouth opens for me.
"It's us for eternity, Mate." My voice is smooth as butter as I talk from across the hall. I watch as Lazarus's muscles tense up from my only sentence.
"You're as pure as snow." I speak up again. His muscles tense up further as he takes in my last statement. It feels like eternity before his body unfreezes and he finally turns to face me. His usual dark and cold eyes look as if they're reliving a memory. A very distant memory. His eyes look like glass as tears well up in his eyes. It's strange to see the cold hearted monster in front of me show any emotions.
"How the hell do you know what I've said?" Lazarus's voice is raspier than normal.
"It's the words you spoke to me the day before I was pulled from school, isn't it not?" I question his question with my own.
"Your memories?" His facial expressions become comical as he asks in pure shock.
"Even if you're the Prince of Hell and I'm an Angel. We will always be together even if we're the oddest mates alive. We will always have each other no matter what." I repeat the same quote I said years ago to him. I watch as he takes a sharp intake of breath. His large hands look as if they're trying to grab his dead heart from his chest.
"I didn't think it would be this soon before you would slowly start to get them back. How?" He asks in a whisper.
"I don't know but I didn't get some of them.... I've gotten all of them Lazarus. I know we're mates. I don't know why we've been paired and I don't understand why they taken my memories nor pulled me from school back then. You can't hold it against me when I wasn't the cause of my disappearance or locked up memories. Deep down inside, I know that sweet kindhearted boy is inside you. You just have to open back up again." I voice out my opinion. I watch as his face turns stone cold and sour. The opened Lazarus has now turned back to his stone cold self.
"Open back up? Trust? No, never. I would never do such a thing after what happened before. Because, this time I wouldn't make it out alive from the heart break. What you want, I can't give. You'll just have to live with what I am now." He snarls as he steps backwards through his opened door. His door slams loudly and the noise echoes through the hallway. I stand staring at his closed door in my own shock.
Piece by piece I feel my heart begin to crack as a sharp pain hits me in my chest. It feels like I'm slowly cracking at the seams. I stumble back into my dorm and close the door behind me. Before I can take a step towards my couch, I collapse against my door.
Slowly the cracks in my heart begin to crack open further and the pain becomes too much. As spots dances around in my vision, before I completely become unconscious....
Fluffy bright white feathers that look as pure as the snow is wrapping themselves around my head. My body crashes into the pillowy cushion of feathers. And just like that, I'm out like a blown lightbulb yet again.
