"Émilie! Émilie? Where are you!?" screamed Skye. My vision was blurred. What happened?
"Émilie!?" he repeated.
"I'm here" I finally answered.I heard him walk to me, and I soon felt his touch. "Where are we?" I asked.
"I don't know, the ground just tumbled, I guess we are underground now... Are you ok?" He asked.
"Yeah I'm fine" I said, My vision was now cleared. There were rocks everywhere and I couldn't even see from where we both fell. I looked up at Skye, he was above me, staring at me. "C-Can you help me Stand up?" I stuttered. Having him so close to me made me nervous.
"Ye-Yeah" he said, getting back to himself.
We were both standing, somewhere we didn't quite know. No opening to be seen except for a little passage led by some light.
"I guess theres something out there, lets go through that" he said.
"OR lets not. Haven't you ever heard of the light at the end of the tunnel? and that if you follow it... your dead" I stated.
"Yes, I have, but I surely hope that its not true and... by the way, if we are dead its because of you, YOU lead us here" He replied, grinning.
"Well YOU just didn't have to follow me"
He turned face to me.
"What if I wanted to" he said looking deep in my eyes.
"Nonsense, You did because you got hired by my mom and because you wouldn't be paid if you would have lost me, actually my mom would have destroyed you and your little life" I replied, pushing him back. I looked at the passage. "Lets go".
We walked for hours and hours, keeping silent until we would reach the light. I didn't feel as shy anymore. In a way, I kinda hated him but kinda liked him too. He made me feel safe, I guess thats why my mom hired him, I thought, applying a slouch on my face. He looked at me and giggled.
"What are you thinking about?" He smirked.
"I was just thinking about you actually" I smiled.
"Really?" he grinned of pleasure.
"Yeah" I smiled again "And how much of a jerk you were for actually wanting to supervise someone who doesn't need supervision"
He got serious.
"Well it is for your safety" He replied.
"Well maybe I should get safety from my mom then"
"Do you really want to start this again?" He asked
I smiled in his face "Yeah, I do"
He became red but soon afterwards, his gaze wasn't on me anymore, he was staring at something behind me.
"What is it?" I asked, unsure.
"A door" He said " Look, it's a door"
I turned around, and there it was. There in front of us was a white door with a crystal blue door knob. It stood there, light gleaming and transpassing through its cracks. It was beautiful.
"Do we open it?"I asked to Skye, staring at it.
"No, what if that's the light at the end of the tunnel? if we open it, we are dead" He replied.
"I don't think that opening it would lead us to our death" I stated.
"I think it could"
"But its the only place we can go"
"No, we can stay here instead" he said.
"In this dark silent place... AND with no food? are you kidding? I need food" I replied.
"I have gum" He grinned, finding himself funny.
"No we are going through this door"
"NO, I'm not ready!" he screamed.
"Oh scardy-cat, are you afraid of the unknown? will you really have to hire me to protect you?" I giggled, teasing him.
"Well, if something attacks us or if anything happens to us, I'm using you as a shield" he winked. "lets open this door"
We both walked up to it slowly, still keeping our distance. I reached for the beautiful blue doorknob and started turning it to the left, pushing the door open...
