Stumbling upon a bed of roses, she hurriedly dived into the depths of soft luxurious red petals and held her breath. Her red sweater allowed her to blend in with the flowers effortlessly. In the distance, she hears cries of anguish as the men marched away. She sighed. It was a close shave.
She sniffed the air. The roses perfumed her beautifully, and she smiled. She didn't realize the thorns piercing her skin menacingly, and the fact that her eyes were tearing painfully. Overwhelmed by the captivating scent, she closed her eyes as the roses lulled her into a deep sleep.

Wretched Roses √
She gazed into her dark brown eyes with lust and pain. A rose as red as her tainted lips she'd put behind her ear, still holding it there, never wanting to let go. She put her forehead against hers as she whispered "You're just like a rose, beautiful but when you come too close you sting, not wanting others to see the pain behind your beauty. But you know what, I'm not scared, I won't give up on you no matter how much you make me bleed." She looked deep in thought, biting her lip and raising one of her eyebrows, and finally, she pressed her tainted lips against hers, letting their lips collide. They knew, that now, they would forever crave each others touch, they were in too deep. They'd fallen too hard. Never did they expect that their story wouldn't end there, and that years later they would be telling this exact story to none other than their own kids.

Help?
Darkness. Darkness is all she could see. She woke up just seconds earlier, in a comfortable bed, but just a little squeaky. There was some light shining through coming from the little oval window in the top left wall. She sighs as she looks around the small, spaced-out room. She then spots folded clothes placed on a green padded, metal chair. The woman groans. The color of the shirt was dark green, the pants gray. She looks at her clothes seeing what she was wearing before was now a tank top and shorts. She looks around the room making it an idea to do. Then after taking a wandering glance around the new room, she got up. The bed made a squeaky mouse sound when she did, but the woman ignored it.Complete

She glanced inside through the sliding doors to see what looked like the girl she was dancing with earlier looking for her.

"Damn that's too bad... because I have been thinking about you naked since I ran into you this morning."

My eyes were slits with her this close to me. I wanted to kill her. "What do you think, Elora? This is war." ___ COMPLETED All rights to the owners.Complete
