Chapter 2

Chapter 2

I woke up fast with sweat dripping down my face and body shaking. My breaths came in short paints and I felt a lump in my throat making it difficult to breathe. I placed my hand over my heart feeling the rapid beats all while trying to catch my breath. This was no longer an occasion, my nightmares had become a nightly occurrence. Sleep had become something so rare I didn't even know the meaning of word anymore. 

    "Blaize what's wrong?" I heard Felix's voice from behind but was breathing too hard to say a single word. Felix stirred his body so he was now sitting up rubbing my back with his rough hands. I faced my body to him and collapsed into his arms still trying to calm my heart down from the horrid nightmare. Desperately fighting the tears back I attempted to suppress the sob building within me.  I broke down and clung to Felix not ever wanting to let go.

    "Blaize everything is going to be okay. Those nightmares will never come true. I wouldn't ever let anything hurt," he whispered into my ear while running his finger through my silk blonde hair. His words soothed me and I was able to calm down. Although my heart was beating normal, I still clung to him as if he was the most important thing in my life.

    "It wasn't a nightmare," I finally said in a hushed tone burying my face into his chest inhaling the scent I had grown used to.

    "Do you want to tell me about it?" Felix asked lifting my chin so our eyes met. He gently took his thumb and wiped the tears rolling down my pink cheeks. I nodded and clung to him a little tighter closing my eyes and shuddering at the thoughts.

    "It was the one of my father. The one where I watch him die. And even though I try to save him, I can't. The ring of fire pushes me away from him," I explained what had awoken me and Felix hugged my fragile body close to him. I embraced his warmth while listening to his reassuring words. "What time is it?"

    "Eleven o'clock," Felix grunted still tired from when we had fallen asleep.

    "Curfew is in thirty minutes I need to get home," I started to get up thinking about where my things were when I felt a warm firm hand around my wrist.

    "Don't go," Felix practically whimpered holding onto me.

    "Felix I can't stay it's the law," I tried to walk away. He tugged me back onto the couch with him.

    "Stay Blaize, please," he whispered into my ear holding my body tightly against his.

    "If I stay, if risk my life for you then will you be mine?" I questioned Felix still whispering as if someone was listening to our conversation.

    "I'll always be yours Blaize." He smiled looking into my eyes and couldn't help but smile right back.

    "That isn't what I meant, you know that," I said shaking my head.

    "Blaize," he sighed my name the way he usually did indicating he was about to get serious. "We can't be together. I can't be with you and you know that." He bit down on his lip with hurt hidden behind those beautiful ocean eyes. I began to sit up again and felt myself falling backwards into Felix's arms once more.

    "Felix it's getting close to curfew I have to-"

    "Stay," Felix pleaded interrupting me and I knew I wasn't getting out of this. I settled back into Felix's arms like we had previously done. We laid together in our safe haven that rested just below the ground and Felix's home. It was impossible to find, no way for the government to hear our sacred words, no way for them to find us breaking the laws.

    "Do you think there will be another breakout war with Rebellions?" I transitioned my body so my face was placed fairly close to Felix. 

    At first he didn't respond then stated, "Of course."

    "Who do you think will lead it since your father isn't here anymore?" I softly asked hoping I didn't bring any negative memories back.

    "Go to sleep Blaize." Felix brushed a piece of hair out of my face before closing his eyes. I knew then I had asked one too many questions.  I felt Felix wrap his arms tightly around me half asleep already.

    "You're my bliss Blaize," Felix softly murmured and then was passed out. I was content with the idea of falling asleep in his arms but with those four words spoken I knew a peaceful sleep wasn't a possibility. So I laid in the darkness, in our so called heaven, pondering the possibilities of any and everything we could be.

A/N: Ever since I began writing Timeless and Bliss I was debating on whether or not to have a cast. I finally caved as it seems popular to have a cast and people like it more. What I have chosen to do s slowly reveal the cast in order to encourage you to keep reading. I don't want to reveal all the characters at once, especially since there are quite a few who are introduced towards the end. When I'm done editing then I'll make it official. So if you see the full cast then that means I'm probably done with story with editing as well and should ignore this.

Second thing with the cast. I am not casting singers or actors. I really wanted people with that heavy grunge look and tattoos and there aren't to many celebrities with that look plus I don't like the idea of super famous people as a cast. I have decided I'm just picking people strictly on looks. Most of the people I will pick are models. But I also didn't want to find just random pictures and upload them with yall not knowing their names so I thought this was a better option.

Thirdly because I'm only casting models and such It Is making it difficult for me to find the right cast for the girls especially Blaize since she's the main character.

For Felix I have chosen Josh Beech. At first I was hesitant on him because I think he looks like Robert Pattinson from twilight but I really think he fits Felix well. Please comment and vote if you like the story! ^.^
