When I was gone did you miss me Did you cry for me Would you carry around pictures of me, only keeping that link between us strong to afraid to let go in fear of that I will slip away like time between your fingers? If I came back a different person would you still love me after all I had done would you still hug me and say that everything is alright Would you still love me? Ember was a shadow, a girl who no one knew ... that's a lie someone knew her a guy called Xavier. He was her life and she was his they were two different people who never mixed but somehow fate had them together for 10 years. Until Xavier got popular and all thoughts of Ember became nothing but a memory, a girl who never lived someone that just never existed except in the dark corners of his mind . It's been 5 years since Ember last saw Xavier as he walked down the hall towards his new life leaving his old behind leaving her behind. It's been 4 and a half years since Ember last cried. It was the last day when she let her guard down. "Ember is that you?" I turned around I knew that voice I could recognise that voice anywhere "Xavier" He ran up to me stopping a couple feet away "is that really you" I looked him up and down those five years of him ditching his friend and being popular did him good so it looks. "Yes, it's me but not as you remember so stay away if you know what's good for you or you might be the next person in that trash can". Xavier just looked at me with compleat and utter shock he reaches out to touch my cheek " what happened to you ?" He reached out to touch the scar I had running down my face the one I got after he left me to myself to my own demons I dodged his outreached hand I turned around and started walking away before I could leave I turned around " doesn't this seem familiar walking down the hallway except for this time it's me , and don't forget you did this to me first "

Mason and I were close. I looked up to him, not as a lover but as a partner. He was my best friend, my other half, a shoulder to lean on; Mason was the best person I could have ever possibly met. I saw him not as most women see men but as they see their siblings. Even with our cupid status, we hadn't believed in love, we only believed in loyalty. "What is it like to be in love?" He quietly giggled and shook his head. "I do not know; I've never been in love before. I think that it is like caring for someone so deeply that you would put their needs before your own. Being in love is like being with your best friend all the time, they know you better than anyone else does, they are someone who helps you become a better person just by being there. Being in love is... well... it is knowing and accepting and believing in them no matter whom else is there. You will always care for them, even if you aren't there with them. If you are truly in love then nothing will ever change that." He promised me that he would always be there even in my darkest moments, but it turned out... that is was nothing but a lie. It was only a lie that our kind had told themselves, to secure their mental state. Walking down the alleys of the streets, to not be seen, I turn my head in the opposite direction of my destination. Footprints, we left footprints in the snow; of course they were faint and were soon ready to disappear yet they were still there. At that point in time they were there whether it was seen or not. I guess each of us were humans at one point, whether we were seen or not, we were still there. Then one day we weren't, we disappeared only to be covered by the lies that our loved ones told themselves to understand that missing feeling. We were there and then we weren't just as the footprints in the snow.
