The brunette and the green-haired boy.
She's just as you'd imagine. Brown hair, natural, big brown eyes, natural. Skin, whiter than the lies she tells herself just to get to sleep at night.
There are no monsters and there are no tears and you are okay.
Lies.
His hair wasn't always green. It was blonde and then it was blue and then he couldn't afford to keep dying it blue, so it faded. Now it's green. His eyes are still blue, though. Not as blue as the sky and only a little bit bluer than ice. But still blue.
And she's a good swimmer, but those eyes still drown her.

Breathless
"Why do you keep pushing me away?" He yelled. "Stop yelling at me!" I yelled back. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean t.." I cut him off and said, "I'm sorry too Jake but I'm in a really dark place right now and I need some time to myself. I don't want to be dependent on anyone. I don't need anyone!" "I understand Riley, but for how long are you going to keep this up? I can see right through your smile. You're hurt." He said. I felt tears roll down my cheeks. I was frustrated of crying all the time. "Don't cry Please. It hurts me to see you like this." He said. "Why? Why Jake? Why do I even matter to you? Are you blind? What do you even see in me?" I yelled at him. I was breaking down. I could feel my heart ache and my eyes were blurry. [Completed] __________________________________________Complete
