Love Is A Bleeding Heart (Grell x Oc Fanfic)

He Calms Me (Chapter 4)

   The sunrise fills the sky with an orange to blue, waking the people up with sun rays beaming through the curtains and windows of the citizens houses. Most people were just waking up but Aya was already walking the streets by herself. Today was a calm and warm day. So, her outfit was a dress that was a light blue that slumps over both shoulders. The dress reaches down to her ankles as it flows with grace, her heels matching the dress. It makes her look like a ice princess with white at the end and a heart shaped front, showing off her chest and about a quarter of her breasts. A white ribbon was around her waist, making her look thin. Aya felt beautiful like a white rose flowing to the song of the winds. Her hair was down and her bangs were swept to one side. For sure people will try to sweep her off her feet but she didn't want any other, but that one red haired man. She wasn't sure about her feelings since he tried to claim her but she knew she wasn't holding a grudge on him. Her crimson eyes stare forward down the road with her hands folded together in front of her. She hums a gentle lullaby her mother once sang to her before she disappeared when Aya was at a very young age. Tears were starting to develop in her eyes but she ignored it all. She was strong, she can fight it.

   Soon enough, children and adults flood out onto the streets with their normal everyday clothes on. Fancy as can be, or ready for the sea. Aya walks past them all and into a green forest. She walks down a path that was created not too long ago. The grass just peaks their tips out, most of it padded down. She kept humming as the tears start to fall upon her beautiful face. She sings out loud, the lyrics making her more heart broken as her walking pace slows down. Soon realizing that she was still in reach kf the towns people hearing, the woman starts to pick up speed to a running pace as the tears fall. Memories of her mother run around her mind, taunting her, haunting her. Her heart hurts. It's broken into million pieces and she felt like she can't pick them all up at once. She runs into a field of grass. She stops and turns as if she was being chased. She leans against a tree and tilts her head forward, watching the tears roll to the tip of her nose and to the warm grass beneath it. She slides down the harsh bark, her dress rubbing against it, being pulled upwards. She hits the ground. She pulls her knees up then puts her arms upon them, shoving her head in her arms. She then lifts her head to see a pair of shoes and a glimpse of red behind them. She looks up and to her surprise, it was him..

   The reaper stands over her like a tower with a sincere smile up on his face. He crouch down in front of her, resting his elbow upon his knee as the other knee press against the grass beneath him. His long locks of red hair falls upon his coat as they lay still. His green eye's meet up with hers. He puts a hand to her cheek and gently caresses her with his gloved thumb. "Darling..why are your eyes filled with hurt? Why do the tears fall?" He asks calmly. Aya jerks her head away from him as she sniffles. She casts a glance at him as the last tear rolls. She tries to stop sniffling to talk normally. "I-I had a thought.. T-T-That's all." She stutters. Grell let's out a chuckle and his hand traces her jawline to her chin, forcing her to face him. He stares longingly into her eyes. "Calm down. I will not laugh. Just tell me." With his words, she felt like this is a side he barely shows. A sincere, calm side of him. She felt calm. "I thought about my mother." She said. "She was the best mother. I only got to see her until I was 7 years old..in human. She disappeared and it was only my father and I." Grell cracks a grin as he gets a bit close, using his other hand to hold him up. He let's go of her chin and brushes back her loose strands of hair from her face. He takes hold of her hand and stands up, yanking her up to her feet. He dusts her off but did not touch her rear. They disappear into thin air.
