A Twist in Time #Wattys2018

We can both remove the masks And admit we regret it from the start

I stepped back when Ben admitted he was already in love with me

''I have to go''I whispered ,didn't know what else to do and ran away from the classroom...

I am really good at running away!! Especially when I was a child running away was a must in my daily routine...Don't ask why when my mother is Maleficent...

I found myself wandering in an uknown side of the college

''Perfect now I am lost...''I thought to myself

I sat on the floor,with my back pinned on the wall

Someone came and sat next to me...I turned to face Ben

''I promise to be quiet...''he said

''You don't have to...''I smiled at him

''now tell me what are you doing here?''he asked me and his voice was calm,not angry at all

I felt guilty for wandering around while the rules forbid students to do it especially during midnight.

My green eyes met his hazel ones and felt my cheeks getting more and more red

''I am too upset to sleep,after what happened to Evie...I really worry about her...''

Ben nodded

''Ohh by the way....this is for you''said and took off from his pocket a letter from Evie for me

I thanked him,explaining how important it was for me to be sure Evie is safe and sound and most important of all to be happy

''I keep ignoring her needs....''I admitted,hiding my face inside my hands

''I don't believe it...anyway if that's true,here's your chance to change it...that's why you chose a twist in time right?''

''Exactly...I am sure I can be a better person...wait...how do you know about it?''said and stood up shocked...''what is going on?''I shouted

''I asked exactly the same...a twist in time....Our story was getting worse and worse...We are the only ones who knew about the twist in time because we both asked about it that night during the ball''he explained to me keeping the distance I chose ,so now we were opposite to each other
