"You want to know why it's so stormy?" he asks.
"Yeah..." I nod my head.
"You already know that my emotions control the weather..." he starts.
"My month is based on love because of Valentine's Day."
I can see the pain in his eyes as he is talking. He has so many mood swings. Unlucky for humans, we have to deal with the consequences of his emotions.
"But...because my month needs a lot of love I'm left with...nothing..."
Nothing? What does he mean by nothing?
He see's the confusion on my face and elaborates.
"I'm left without...love. I can't...love. It just isn't possible for me."
"Ever?!" I say in shock.
He nods in confirmation.
I can't even imagine what that must feel like. Not being able to love someone. No wonder he's always in a pissed mood, he has to fill the void of love with a different emotion, anger.
If he was able to love...I wonder what the weather would be like. I assume the sun would shine down warmly, hugging everyone in a blanket of security. Yeah...that's what it would be like.
"I'm sorry...I don't know what I would do if I couldn't love..." I say giving him a sympathetic look.
"Everyone back home gives me a hard time because I'm not 'doing my job right'. But they don't know how it feels."
"Can I ask you just one more thing."
"Fine. One more thing," he smiles.
"You remember that time..when...well when I thought you were going to kiss me?"
"What about it?"
"What were you doing...if you didn't want to kiss me?" I twiddle my fingers trying to distract myself from my own question.
He chuckles, making me feel embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter," he says smirking.
I hate it when he smirks. I decide to let it go.
I take out my phone and look at the time. I should be getting home it's 5:43 am. I also have a few texts from Jason.
Jason: What's up?
Jason: Who is the person you almost kissed?
Jason: How did someone get to your house for them to 'almost' kiss you?
Okay he's asking a lot of questions I probably shouldn't answer...accept for the "what up?"
I start texting him back when I feel February's gaze upon me.
"Who are you texting?" he asks looking at my phone, "Your boyfriend?"
Something in the way he says "boyfriend" makes me cringe.
"No...he's just a friend," I say while texting. "I mean...we used to date..."
He adjusts his position before speaking again.
"You had a boyfriend?" he asks in surprise which hurts my ego.
"Why do you sound so surprised?" I ask with a hint of annoyance in my voice.
"Nothing...I just...I thought you were...you know pure," he chuckles.
Pure? PURE? WHO THE HECK DOES HE THINK HE IS SAYING THAT?!
"What does that supposed to mean?" I say looking up from my phone.
"I didn't mean anything by it. I was just surprised," he bits his lip trying to stop himself from laughing.
"Well... you can't even love so that means you're pure too!" I chuckle feeling very smart.
"Just because I can't love doesn't mean I'm pure," he smirks earning himself a punch on the shoulder.
Who the heck has he slept with? I thought humans aren't supposed to know they exist. Unless he sleeps with them then erases their memory. Oh my God, I'm disgusted.
He freezes in position and looks dead ahead all of a sudden. I wave my hand in front of his face and call his name.
"I want to show you something," he says blinking out of his daze.
He gets up and walks towards the door and motions for me to follow. We walk down the stairs and back into the creepy-ass woods. Maybe he's changed his mind about killing me, who knows?
"Feb?" I say as he stops and shushes me. He stands beside a tree and pulls me into him, with my front to his front. We crouch down and I look at him in confusion. He peeks behind the tree trunk and tells me to look.
As I look my eyes go immediately soft. AWWWW!! It's a mama deer and her foal lying on the grassy floor, it looks as though she just gave birth, "Oh my God!," I breathe.
"Cool right?" I nod in response and watch the hazel brown deer lick her baby. February starts to stand up and walk towards the deer, "Feb! What are you doing?!" I hiss trying to keep my voice low.
"Come on!" he calls back.
What is he doing, what if they get mad and attack us! The mama deer looks up and stays perfectly calm as she sees February. He crouches down to her level and rubs her behind her ears as if they are old friends.
"Come on Alex, she's really friendly!" I look at him still crouching from behind the big trunk. I wear a worried expression on my face as I slowly get up. He reaches his hand out for me to hold. I grab his hand and he pulls me down gently and rests my hand on the baby deer's white spotted back.
I feel her warm fur rising and falling with her breath. A smile spreads onto my lips as her mama looks up at me and nudges my free hand. I chuckle and look at Feb who is already watching me.
Our faces are only a few centimeters apart. His eyes look like black marbles in the night as he looks into mine. A puff of air falls out from my breath indicating the coldness in the air.
"I should get going, it's getting late."
"I'll walk you back...you know, just to make sure you're safe," he playfully shoves me.
"Aww I didn't realize you cared so much."
"Don't get used to it," he jokes.
