Ethan....

I hear another engine roar as I bike away. I look back to see Ethan riding behind me. I huff in frustration and try to maneuver around the cars and alleyways quickly. I couldn't seem to loose him though. As I see his face stare at me with complete concentration.
I decided to give in and drive to a more remote area where we could let out our thoughts. 

"What the hell Ethan!" I say ripping off my helmet. Tossing it to the ground. 

"What the hell Ethan? How about what the hell April!? You break up with me over something so small then you just storm off!"

"So what if I just stormed off? You have no reason to follow me like that!"

"April I followed you because i wanted answers! It's not like i'm some crazy stalker or anything! I'm just your boyfriend!"

"You mean ex boyfriend..." I say to him harshly. He stares at me as I look into his eyes and see a world of pain. 

"Sorry, Ethan... That was mean of me to say..."

"Oh.. no no. Don't say sorry, just continue to show how heartless you truly are... Please continue to hurt me."

I open my mouth but nothing comes out, I was speechless. Taken back as I realize how I have truly been with him. 

"Ethan..." I look at the ground in disappointment in myself. 
"What April." He says with hatred in his deep voice. 

Staring at the ground I lightly whisper, "I... I didn't want you to see how I am in battle..." 

"What did you say April??" He brings his ear closer to me.

I raise my head and say, "I didn't want you to see how brutal and crazy I truly am when I kill! Ok! I didn't want you to leave me because of how uncontrollable I am! I kill and kill and kill! I have no mercy! Smokey has seen me go bazerk and he didn't see me the same after that! I am the leader of the gang because of what I have done! We weren't always number one Ethan! Why do you think my name is Reaper!" 

I look at him with swollen eyes and a broken heart. I continue saying, "I am called Reaper not because of my parents dying, or that I wear all black and throw knives, but because I kill so many people at a time. I leave groups on groups of gangs and groups dead. Single kills aren't what I do." I have tears grow closer and closer to breaking open the flood but I hold them back. 

"April..." He puts his arms out and wraps them around me.

"I was rash, and I shouldn't of pried for an answer. I'm sorry..."

I rest my head in his chest and say, "Don't be sorry, I should've told you, but I let my thoughts control me and I didn't want you to think of me as some psycho killer."

"Babe, I will promise you this now, I will never see you any different."

I smile into his chest as he rubs light circles on my back. 

We stood there for a while as we let the wind quarrel around us, hearing the trees rustle and twine. 

"April.."

I hum to him.

"How about we start over? Keeping no secrets from each other..."

"I like that idea." I step back and throw my hand out, "I'm April, more or less known as Reaper."

He lightly laughs and shakes my hand saying, "Hello April slash Reaper, I'm Ethan, more or less known as one of the Twisted Twins." He winks and I softly giggle. 

"Would you like to go to dinner to get to know each other better?" He asks me.

"I think it's a bit to early for a dinner date, maybe next time." I say to him and smile softly.
