Its the middle of the day, the sun is at its highest. I had agreed to stay with Ashton ...but why? There is something, I'm not sure what, trying to see us part. Its a form of nature I have never seen before, almost as if a demon laid behind the shadows, waiting for the perfect time to screw everything up with Ashton and I.
Ashton had cleaned himself by the lake, I told him I would wait for him here, there was no way I was going back to that lake. It reeked with death and hinted a warning to me that Ashton refused for some odd reason to take heed in. I stood there by the fire, thinking about it all.
Why is Ashton keeping me here? Why when his life was nearly taken from him multiple times?
I couldn't help the suspicion that kicked in and found myself wandering towards the lake. I hid myself behind a tree as I kept my eyes locked on Ashton, who was standing in the lake, staring blankly ahead of him. It was then I saw failure of a young girl, her face like the one I saw the night before, her hair looked wet and stuck to the side of her face. She wore a white dress that flowed with the breeze, it was tattered and old, and her lips and fingertips were an icy blue.
She motioned him with her hand to come closer, I looked over to the side just enough to catch a peek at Ashton. His eyes looked at her so different from the way he usually looked at me. They were filled with lust and love, like he just caught a glimpse of an angel. She looked at him the same way, and instead of an angry frown that was on her face the other night, she was smiling.
He walked over to her, her arms were stretched out to him, and I felt jealousy hit me as he fell into her arms. I walked out from my hiding spot and stood were they could both see me. "Elle, I missed you." He said, but she didn't respond.. or couldn't. She touched his cheek, then her eyes shot up yo me, her smile instantly falling. She pointed to me, and Ashton swung himself around to Kolkata me. I felt my knees ready to give out as I looked at them, realizing who she was. His ex girlfriend.... the name on the stick... and I was his excuse to be here. "Why?" That was all that managed to escape my lips. My heart felt as if it stopped in my chest.
Ashton stared at me, his eyes apologetic, but no longer showed love for me. Elle glared at me, and Ashton turned to face her. "Now." He said, and Elle reached out to him.....
