aurora rising one shots, volume two.

...do you still love me?

So Auri's POV is on this side.

Kal's is on this side.

~~~

Oh, god." I whisper in my empty room.
"He doesn't actually love me anymore."

"Void, what if she doesn't love me as I love her anymore?" I ask, into my room.

"I've been horrible. I'm only training for the Ra'haam and I haven't given him time at all."

"All I've done is fight. I do not talk to her -she's too busy training-. I haven't given her time at all."

"And, oh god, he just fights and avoids me. Is it because I'm fighting? I'm training? I—"

"I need to talk to her." I say out loud ,"I need to tell her what's happening to me."

"I need to talk to him. I need to tell him what's happening to me." I say, and walk down the hallway.

I sigh, and get out of the hallway, taking long, languid strides.

I hurry out of my room and into the hallway, almost running.

I'm gently surprised when Aurora crashes into my chest.

"Mothercustard!" I shout, but looking up I realise it's Kal.

"Aurora? I need to tell you something." I say, almost...nervous?

"Oh, god, m-me too!" I cry, disentangling myself from his arms.

I sit down, raising my legs against the other wall and resting my back against the wall so I create a kind of barrier in the hallway.

Its lucky that it's like, 2am, because Kal is absolutely blocking the hallway.

I gesture for her to sit on my legs, void knows that I'm strong enough. She grins -a smile that makes my heart flutter- and sits there, crossing her legs.

"Okay, um," I say, positioning myself on Kal's lower legs ,"do- do you want to go first?"

I nod my head.
"I'm so sorry, Aurora, I don't give you enough time and I spend all my time fighting and I—"

I laugh. I'm slightly relieved -he feels the same as me.

"Aurora? Are you okay?" I ask, fear running throughout my body.

"Yeah, I'm okay. It's just funny because I felt the same way."

"You did?"

"I did. And I'm so sorry, Kal, I didn't realise."

"I love you."

"Love you too, you dork."
