Powers (Slow Updates)

Twenty One

Liesma was completely silent as we ate breakfast. Her eyes kept moving from her plate to the window, all the while avoiding me. There was something off about her, not just about what had happened last night. "Liesma. Listen. I said I was sorry. I was way too drunk! It's not like I actually did anything other than scare you and remove your shirt."

I watched as her cheeks flamed a dark red. She looked up at me and I read the painful emotions in her eyes. After I had seen her eye colour she gave up on wearing contacts around the house unless it was neccessary or she felt like it. "You think that's all you did?" Her fists clenched and she stood up storming throughn the door that lead into the basement.

I continued to eat my food until she came back up holding a scarf. She grabbed my hand and wrapped part of the scarf around it. I raised an eyebrow at her as she tied the other part around her own hand. I could feel the heat radiating from her since the scarf was quite short. "It's infused with Death magiks. We both close our eyes. you first then me and you'll go into the memories I Want You to see."

I studied her face, her eyes were sad and she looked tired. She musn't have had enough sleep. I nodded slowly then closed my eyes. I could here a buzzying noise and then there was a bright white noise. When the light vanished I opened my eyes to see I was in the living room and that it was dark.

Liesma was sleeping peacefully on the sofa until someone started trying to open the door. I watched as she walked towards it and opened the door to reveal someone. I moved around the room to see a very drunk looking me looking at the door in amazement. I was muttering something about magic while doing jazz hands. great.

I watched as she took drunk me's hand and guided him inside before taking his one shoe off as if he was a 4 year old. It was funny watching the way she treated me. When we got to the top of the stairs I saw my expression change into a slightly drunken version of my party face. 

I listened to the bad line I used and facepalmed. I felt a force pulling my hand away just in time to see me push Liesma up against the wall and kiss her. I felt my perspective move so I was close enough to see. 

Anyone could see that Liesma didn't want me to kiss her but I kept doing so. I swalled the rock forming in my throat and closed my eyes hard enough that lights danced before them. But the same force made me open my eyes. 

I saw the fear in Liesma's eyes and she was shouting now, loud enough that if she had neighbours they would've heard her. I watched as my drunk self started pulling her shirt off, revealing her scarred skin. The same force moved me so I could hear but not see Liesma's stomach again.

After a while of hearing Liesma scream my perspective changed once again and I realised I was looking out of Liesma's eyes. I felt the raw fear as if I was the one scared. Then my eyes started to clear and the bright light took over again.

I blinked a couple of times and saw that I was back in the kitchen, holding onto the scarf, with Liesma facing me. I rubbed my eyes and shook my head, releasing the scarf. 

"Lie, I'm sorry. I really didn't mean too. I shouldn't have made you feel like that and i definately shouldn't have done that to you." She looked up at me and I noticed some of the anger had gone. "Please don't be angry with me. Honestly, I wouldn't have done anything like that if I wasn't drunk." Her eyes swam with tears and I realised she was still shaken up. 

Without thinking I wrapped my arms around her gently, holding her against my chest. I expected ehr to push me away or hit me but she just moved her arms around me slightly, cautiously returning the hug. Her skin instantly warmed me. I pulled away from her and she gave me a slight half smile.
