Melancholic Lovers

Bottom Of The River

Alaric's Pov-

6:00 am

The feeling is sensational. Waking up to my baby girl every blessed morning. She's pure radiance. She is the sun I can touch and kiss,

Without getting burnt.

God please don't let me loose her, even if I'm not the one. Lord don't let her experience pain.

I love watching open her eyes , and the only thing she sees is me.

She's so beautiful, everything about her.

This woman. She touches my soul more than my body. She's heaven to me.

My beautiful. My love.

I kissed her on the cheek, and whispered in her ear 'I love you' , and she gives that warm tired smile of hers.

I don't know how Kira feels about this, I understand her perspective. But how do you fall 'out' of love with someone just because someone doesn't approve?

Kira's Pov-

I woke up with my alarm ringing into my ears and gave a heavy sigh. I rotated my head to see if Isaac was still asleep, but I couldn't tell.

"Isaac?" I whispered repeatedly, but still no answer.

I climbed out of my bed and strolled towards him, lifting up the lilac blanket over him.

He wouldn't look at me, and his face felt cold.

"Isaac, are you okay?" I uttered

He lifted himself up, staring at me with bloodshot eyes. He looked lifeless. He looked tired.

"I have to go home today." He said, with brokenness within his tone.

I remained silent because I didn't realize what was so bad about that.

"I have to go home today. I'm going back. I can't keep seeing this Kira I can't."

"Seeing what?" I said gripping onto his pale hands.

"It's as if all of a sudden I feel an intense piercing pain shooting up my neck. It's like the  world seems in hyperdrive as adrenaline pulsates through my veins with loud booms, every sound is magnified to a countless number.

I can't breathe Kira and my vision is clouding. Every time I close my eyes, assuring it'll be okay I see  coloured shapes flashing above my face

That man has never had a flinch of guilt in his cold grey eyes, he always has this twisted pleasure radiating off his skin. And I can't go back Kira. I can't watch anymore. I-I can't"

Before he could utter any other worlds, tears flooded his eyes. And i clutched him. I held him. He couldn't stop crying and I still sat there clueless.

Clueless about what Isaac means, and clueless as in why I'm showing so much affection to someone.

11:00 am

A few hours later, they found themselves laying their heads upon each other's, still wrapping their arms together whilst they were both asleep.

"Kira! Isaac! Breakfast!"

They both slowly removed themselves from the position they were in and made themselves downstairs to join the two adults at the table.

Isaac rubbed his hands on Kira's thigh, gently. He stroked on it and ran his fingers threw her inner thighs.

After that they all rose from their seats onto the couch and indulged themselves with popcorn and drinks whilst watching The Vampire Diaries.

It wasn't long before a knock was on the door.

"I'll get it it" Exclaimed Kira.

Her fingertips nudged onto the doorknob, and opened the door.

The man who filled poison in my body.
The man who broke the family.

The man who always said he'd be there for me whenever I needed him but disappeared  when  it was father daughter day.

The man who fucking walked down the alter, and promised to love my mother till death do them part.

The man who bought me my first football boots, but wasn't there to kick the ball with me.

I feel a ball of fire in the throat because I want to ignite his whole being.

This man belongs to the devil, this man is the devil.

My father.
