For all of you who have stuck with me and Alexis (@starshine167) and jasmine, I'm letting you have a preview of what has taken me over a year to write. Life is hectic but I'm doing my best. I want to finish it and give justice to this story. So thank you all so much for you patience and here is a peak! -Ammelia
With a smirk, I turn her to face me, inches from
my own face. "I think I have some feelings for you. All good, of
course. And I know that I might seem like an awful person but I'm not
incapable of feeling the way I do. Sometimes it takes someone
special to feel this way." I pause for a moment and touch the bill of
her hat and tilt it up ever-so-slightly to see her eyes that were
hidden behind the worn out 'Twins' hat that she seems like. I begin
with my proposal, "I need to flee here and I want to take you
with me. I need to know you're safe from death again. Now that Lea is
dead, the people will act fast and viciously. She has already told
them what I'm going to do and we cannot suffer what they want to do.
Just come with me... I love you, Lea."
Then I realize what I've said. I shake my head trying to take what
I've said back. In some part of me, though, I know it's entirely true;
I love her. That other part of
me is fighting the idea but my heart knows how utterly true it is.
That's why, when she starts to respond, I feel a sharp pain in my arm.
Astounded, I move back while pulling the knife out carefully. With
these situations you avoid high blood loss.
