SKINNY lOVE

Chapter 29

Feeling disorientated I began to cross the rippeling river. As soon as my swollen feet hit the cold mountain water, I shuddered. My blood felt like it had frozen underneath my skin, slowing me down entirely. Taking mindless steps, I crossed the slippery rocks that jutted out from underneath the water.

Somehow Id manged to make it across untouched. The tall grass tickeled my pale legs and wrists. My scars still shawn with the silver shean, and my eyes were still emitting a soft glow.

The rotting barn with peeling red paint sat nesteled in a sea of dense trees and large boulders. I know stood, dripping cold river water into the damp soil, looking up at the shack. As I reached out to clasp the long door handle, I heard a scream rip through the serene white noise of the river. Turning on my heal I saw Nirvan running towards me yelling my name in a sense of fear.

Walking towards his speeding figure my breath caught. Thoughts started to feed back into my conscience. And I fell to my knees as a cry of agony clawed its way out of my throat as the horrific flashbacks began.

Id fallen into a deep sleep in the car and as Fravar waited till I was out for sure. He barreled down the rode and then ditched me on the side of the rode deep in the vast forest. I watched as he ripped open my shirt that was still gaping open and took a silver blade to my heart. The dagger cut through my paper skin like a warm knife through soft butter. A silver fluid leaked out and he drew his fingers through it. Bringing the shiny liquid to his lips he licked them clean.

"Chevei! Chevei wake up!" A distant voice broke the silence that had fallen over me. I opened my eyes to meet the endless ones of Nirvan and a sad smile planted to my sweaty face.

"Hello." My voice was broken up and raspy. I must have screamed really loudly.

He didnt answer but he did kiss me hard.
