❛❛we wrote a fairy tale, its name, Eclipse❜❜
A story of a paralyzed girl, and an ephemeral boy, who were only able to meet at night and starting from silly conversations they became the light in each other's darkness.
But no one knew where he came f...
"Don't cut yourself Ember, because you are a flame, a flame so lively, that its ashes don't disappear, they soar up high in the sky. They fly."
Those words, they were like a dream, a dream from which I would never want to wake up. My world was a nightmare, demons running wild, screaming, lacing my thoughts with poison.
But Moon,
My Moon,
He was something else, he was not a ray of light, he was light itself, the sweet, silver light of the moon.
My Moon who was perfect.....
My head was on his shoulder, still and the ticking of the clock reminded me that our time was slowly, slowly passing by.
The sun would soon come up,
Its orange rays would shine on my misery.
Seconds became minutes, minutes became hours, my head was still on his shoulders.
"DONT GO..." I had to speak those two words but i kept shut as I was afraid of the answer. A cold wave was tapping on my skin, dancing slowly and I was shivering in his arms until he jerked me.
"Ember!" He shouted out, his fingers locked with mine and he brushed them down my arm, "w...why are you shivering? " he said.
'Im scared, you will leave me, you'll stop shining your light on me'
~~~❦~~~
Those words were difficult to speak, I was terrified, so i brought my hand near my mouth, trying to stop myself from making the weird confession.
"Ember! Ember... " he let go of me and stared at me while I wiped my tears away.
"Its fine...don't worry about me...." I sniffed and barely pronounced each word.
"Whats the matter?" He pressed my shoulder tightly and i nodded my head as a NO.
"Hey whenever you are sad, look at the sky, l look at this dark night sky, the stars, the moon...." before he could have finished I interrupted him,
"I wish....." I looked at my broken wheelchair, without which I could not walk towards the window or the balcony.
As I said before, I was a burden.
Moon looked at this then at me, with sad eyes, face washed with confusion,
"Hey!" He suddenly jumped on the floor and layed himself on the bed, beside me, making the mattress bounce a little.
"What? "I was compelled to bounce and gripping tightly onto the sheets I looked at him, while he glanced at the black ceiling above us.
"Come here" he patted the place beside him.
"There?" I blushed a little and said.
"COME ON! FAST!" He yelled and I placed myself on the bed, facing the ceiling.
"Moon...what are you doing?" I asked.
"Shhh..." He pointed at the ceiling and said, "Look."
I stared above, without any clue of whats going on.
"Do you see those stars...Ember?"
"No...do you?"
"Come on....its our stars Ember, its our sky.."
"Stars....right..."
I realized, i really dont need stars when my Moon is with me, he is everything I had ever wanted, every second with him is my euphoria.
If only.....
If only....he could have stayed longer.
He suddenly interrupted my thoughts,"Hey that one's you, the brightest one"
"That should be you..."I smiled.
"Mhmm..." he disagreed, "Im your Moon right?"
"Yes...yes you are my Moon " I smiled, closing my eyes.
