I felt him behind me, dangerously close. His hands clenched the granite counter on either sides of me. I could feel his cold breath on my bare shoulder, causing my heart rate to accelerate so fast that each heartbeat blurred into the next. I was unbearably still, despite my spiked breaths, when I sensed his mouth right by my ear. Closing my eyes, I focused on regaining the breath he had stolen from me. That's when he whispered huskily, the words ricocheting in my head long after he was gone, "I hate you." ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• The world of Atlantis is gone, vanished.

"I-I think I'm in love with you." My eyes widened and my breath caught as those words left his lips. It was my worst and most beautiful nightmare coming alive. But I couldn't, I just couldn't. "I-I can't, I'm sorry." I started running away, wiping the stray tears that betrayed me and leaked, with the palm of my hand. I sniffed, feeling a growing pain in my heart. I clutched my chest, barely able to handle it. I kept running, but when I knew I was far enough, I fell to my knees, still holding my chest. That's when I heard it. The sound that shouldn't even be audible was so loud in the still silence that it swayed the trees. But maybe that was just an illusion. Maybe only I could hear it. The sound of my heart breaking. ______________________________________ Two people. Entirely opposite in only one manner. Noah's on his 'quest for love,' and Jade cowers from any such feelings.
