"Hey little one, did you sleep well?" A male voice sounded behind Abe. It was familiar but also the first time he actually heard it

He turned around to see a teenage guy, kind of tall, with brown hair with some locks on it

"Morning Ed! I did, come here, let's eat something our parents left" Abe heard himself say with a friendly feminine voice

Two seconds forward, Abe could see the girl from Ed's eyes. She was short in height, had white skin and very dark long hair. She was looking at him with that this sincere smile that illuminated the room. They sat on the couch together for a while, Abe stroked her hair. Soon enough he was her again and placed his head on Ed's chest, hearing his heartbeats. The sound was soothing and brought tranquility to him. She looked up to find Ed smiling at her with that young love type of vibe.

"You look so beautiful" Abe heard himself say it through Ed's voice

She touched his foreman and smiled in the corner of her mouth.

"I love you" she said

"I love you too" he answered

Some moments passed and a crushing sensation came to her heart, making a couple of tears rolling down her cheeks.

"I'll miss you so much," she said with her voice cracking

"Hey, hey... you will go for something that really matters to you, it's your future. I think you are so brave... and I promise you this, whenever you close your eyes and pay attention, I will always be hugging you. I'll miss you too, my darling" Ed said trying to comfort her

She closed her eyes and hugged him. Abe could feel his heart tight on his chest, too much love to give someone in so little time, it just wasn't fair. What if he felt an urge to feel her scent being so far away? What if he saw something that he wanted to show to her right there on the spot?

Soon Abe heard a door being unlocked. This time a devastating feeling of dread came along from the depths of the girls' mind. Abe felt agitation and rage dominate him, this disgust that twisted his gut for being interrupted in the middle of something so pure and intimate.

"What is this? Crying again? At this time in the morning? I'm done with you making her cry!" A woman said in a harsh irritated manner while looking at Ed

"Mom, that's not-" she tried to say, that feeling of being hopelessly in trouble intensifying in her core

"If you don't want to go, then don't! We are paying for you to study, which you won't if you keep crying around" The woman said angrily to both of them

Abe felt Ed's hand pressing against her arm, he was angry too, although his desires weren't so malevolent as hers. Abe could feel the hatred coming from both of them, the woman's voice echoing in their minds, bringing the most vicious feelings to the surface. How dare she do this to their moments? Like they don't have so little of them left to live in the same city.

"Abe?... Hey, Abe... jeez, Abe! Hellboy said shaking him a bit

Abe stopped looking to nowhere and his pupils came back to normal. He was sitting on the couch in the living room, close to the stairs.

"Oh mine," Abe said removing his hands quickly from the couch, a little spasm following the movement

"There you are! Are you ok?" How long have you been here?" Hellboy asked concerned

"I don't know, what time is it?" Blue asked feeling out of place

"It's around nine in the morning" HB answered
