Without A Heart

CH 06

"She looks like an angel when she sleeps..." Emily chuckles "She's so cute..."

It will be already one hour ago since Emily rolled over bed so she could be face to face with a sleeping Alison. It might be creepy to just stare at her like this, but, Emily is not sure if she would ever get another chance to be this close with the girl, so, she needs to make the most of it, right?

"You don't care if I take us a selfie, right?" Emily whispers, it's obvious that the sleeping blonde doesn't reply. "I'll take your silence as a 'yes'..." Emily sees no harm in taking a selfie with the blonde. The brunette happily smiles when she looks at the picture of the two of them so close...

"We look so good together..." The brunette always looks good in pictures, she's highly photogenic, that's what her friends always say and, she has a good album of photos to prove it, but for her, this picture with Alison is the best picture she has. Emily's glowing and the only reason to explain such glowing, it's the blonde who's holding her under her sleep. If just Alison could see how she makes Emily glow...

Emily settles the photo as her new wallpaper on her phone and keep staring at the blonde, waiting to see if she's gonna wake up soon, but, nothing happens, Alison is deeply asleep...

'Should I stay or should I go?' Emily wonders, and her mind says just leave now! But, her heart wants to stay, and in the first time in her life, Emily is choosing to do what her heart wants...

The brunette is softly mapping Alison's face with her fingers, she softly clears Alison's face when she removes the golden curls that are covering her face. She smells like vanilla, Emily notices. And, somehow, she feels like this will become her favorite aroma from now on...

Her aroma, her smile, her eyes, her hair, her lips... Emily starts to make a list of all the things she likes about Alison. And, the list seems to have no end because the brunette always finds a new little detail to put in it. This is so new territory for the brunette. She has never had a crush before, in her life, and, it's not like if she didn't have options. Lots of boys and girls have crossed her path more than once, and, they have tried to catch her heart, but, no one had succeeded... till Alison appeared in her life...

There is no such thing as love at first sight. That's what Emily always used to say when she watched a romantic movie with her friends. And, it's true that she never believed that someone could fall in love with just one look... but, she was wrong... so wrong... From the first moment they met, Emily knows that she fell in love with Alison, with just one look... just one gaze of those beautiful blue eyes was enough to fall in love with the blonde. It seems unreal, but, it's true... Just if the blonde could feel the same... just if Alison could reciprocate her feelings... but...

"You like that doctor, isn't it?" Emily sadly asks to a sleeping Alison. And, the blonde can't answer right now, but Emily is sure that she knows the answer to her question. Alison stares at the doctor the same way she looks at her. And, it's sad, it's the perfect reason to kill these butterflies that she's getting from Alison, but, even if the blonde seems to be interested in someone else. Emily cannot stop these feelings she's getting for her...

"What is so great about that doctor, heh? I'm prettier! Can she swim like a mermaid? I'm sure she cannot! There's no better swimmer than me! Can she protect you? I'm afraid she cannot! She doesn't have the same training than me, I'm your Killer! Does she think about you all the time? I don't think so, not more than me, that's sure. You're in my mind 24h/24h, 7/7! No one cares about you as much as me, so, you should forget about that damn doctor and start looking at me!" Emily pouts, it's adorable how she tries to establish that she's a better catch than the other girl...

Emily wishes that Alison could see how she feels about her. But, even if Emily's feelings haven't reached yet Alison. The blonde definitely feels something when the brunette softly caresses her face...
