I'm yours and you're mine - Book 2 of Be mine and I'll be yours

Back to life

*3 days later*

Draven's Pov

I woke up but not where I was expecting. I got up and looked around, I saw Carlos. He was with my body about to bury it. I looked at his face, he was crying. I grabbed his shoulder but he didn't feel it, I touched his face but he also didn't feel it. That's when I realized where I was, on the other side. I died. I looked back at him and sighed. How was I getting out of here? Father, his generals are somewhere here. They have some witch if I find them I can get back to the other side and see him again. I looked at him one more time and walked off. 

I walked through the darkness, trying to figure out my surroundings. I wasn't alone. A lot of other people and souls were here. They all looked constipated and were all motionless. I examined one, it was strange. It was like he gave up on life, soulless and empty. That's probably what happens when you stay in this for too long. I gotta get out of here as quickly as possible or else that's gonna be me. I left and picked up the pace to find what I'm looking for.

Evie's Pov

It's been three days and Carlos still stayed at the grave. I felt bad for him but I didn't know what to do. He wouldn't talk to me, or any of us. Not even Jay. I felt helpless and well I was. He just lost his brother there is nothing I can do to help him. Me and Mal left him while Jay left with Ben to help with the damages. We figured he probably needed some space. I sighed and Mal looked at me. She could tell there was a lot my mind but didn't want to ask as if she already knew. She asked me anyway.

"What's on your mind Eves?"

I looked back at her 

"Carlos. I feel so bad for him but I'm also so mad at him!"

I groaned and she looked away

"I know I shouldn't ask but why are you mad at him?"

I looked at her face, examining it. It was soft and smooth, she's actually being genuine. This surprised me as she is NEVER like this. I just sighed and looked away.

"Come on Eves you can tell me. What's going on between you two?"

"What makes you think there's something?"

She chuckled

"Well you guys seem less..."

She paused, trying to think of a word

"Perfect."

"Well you're right. We're not. He's been distant. I don't even remember the last time we had sex."

That might have been an bit of lie. I do remember the last time but it was so long ago. I looked away again. She took my hand.

"What's the problem, why haven't you guys done it?"

"Ever since I found out what he is, we haven't been the same. No dates, no cuteness, no sex, no nothing." 

She listen carefully

"It's really been bothering me. For someone who says he can read people, I'm surprised he hasn't read how I feel. We barely have any time together. I haven't felt that special feeling he always gave me anymore. I'm just-"

She sighed and pulled me for a hug. I settled in her arms and smiled. She always makes me feel better. I wrapped my arms around her and she kissed my forehead. She gently caressed my shoulders. We finally pulled away and she smiled at me.

"Why don't you just tell him how you feel?"

"I haven't really had the chance to talk to him a lot."

She nodded. We soon saw Jay walking towards us. Mal instantly smiled and so did Jay. She jumped in his arms and she gave him an Hollywood movie kiss. I remember what that felt like. Just wish I felt again. Mal and Jay finally stopped and sighed in relief.
