Kye & Amelia

Kye jumped over the small brick wall in one hop and without support from his hand. He turned around and looked at me. “Come on, Amelia. We don’t have the whole day” he gestured a hand towards me, but I reclined. “Not going to need help” I said while I took a few steps back, before setting in a sprint over the wall. But I did need support from my hand. I was athletic, yes, but I didn’t practice parkour as Kye did. And I sure as hell didn’t take chances. “Such a chicken” Kye laughed. “I’m not a chicken, Kye. I’m just not a daredevil as you are. Some of us like to keep our lives” I growled. “And yet you are here, out on a mission with me” I could see his smirk, even that his head was hide behind the hoodie. “Only because we are the best, and I’m the only one who can stick it up with your ego” I gave back, and heard his low chuckle.

We sneaked down the small alleys, before we got to our destination. Our job wasn’t completely legal, since we were stealing jewelry and crystals. And this night wasn’t any more different than another. Kye and I were the best in our clans, because of our skills. Both of us were equally skilled in fighting and athletics. Kye was the master in getting any physical lock open just with some few tools, and I was the master in getting behind any digital locks. So we were more than often paired together on missions, and as I said to Mister Ego himself, I was the only one who could stick up with him. Kye was about to walk out on the streets, but I stopped him. “Wait a minute” I said and straightened my back from the crumpling through the shadows. I took my backpack off, and then I took my coat off and handed it to Kye. “Hold it” I said, “Amelia, what are you doing? We don’t have time for this” Kye scolded. “Shut up and listen. We can’t go into that party unless we are looking like someone who is going to attend one. You already go black pants and sweater, so put this blazer on” I said and handed him a blazer from the backpack. “And what are you going to wear? You are in the exact same suit as I am” he asked. “This one” I pulled out a long sleeveless women’s shirt in black with a sparkly collar made of rhinestones. I heard a low whistle come from him, and I couldn’t help but smile. Quickly I threw my sweater off and put the shirt on. I duck down in the backpack once more and found a small pullover. Thank God, it was one of those warm evenings in the fall. I put our clothes in the backpack and hid it behind the container in the alley, before I let my hair fall loose. I collected it at the one side, and put some pins in my hair to keep it together. When I was ready Kye was giving me a look from head to toe. “Get over yourself, please” I said and took a small purse, which was already packed with our tools. “Are you ready now?” Kye asked with crossed arms and a smirk plastered on his face. “Yes, I am. Let’s go” I answered, “This way, my lady” he said, and held an arm out for me. I looked at him, give ham a small laugh and then hooked my arm under his.

Jake & Ellie

I ran directly into his arms and let myself surrender with his aroma. I didn’t think that missing another person could hurt so much. I felt him careful pull me away from him, and I looked up at him. His eyes were filled with worries. “What is wrong?” I asked. He took a deep breath and locked eyes with me. “I can’t do this anymore. It’s too much, Elvira” he said and took my hands in his. I just stood there with a blank face, until his words sank in. I yanked my hands away. “You can’t do this. You promised to be there for me” I started with tears in my eyes. “You promised!” I yelled, while I pointed my finger at him. “I know, Ellie” he started, but I cut him off. “Only my friends call me that” I snarled at him. His eyes dropped, knowing he was defeated. He had hurt me, and now I did the same. “Elvira, please don’t make it worse. You did know that it couldn’t be any more different. I told you from the start, that it wouldn’t work. That is was a short term decision” he told me, but I had heard it all before. “Get out” I just said. “Elvira, listen to me” he said and took a step closer to me. “Get out!” I said again. He raised his hand, as if he wanted to touch me. I took a step back, while I shot angry eyes at him. “El…” “Get out! Get out! Get out!” I screamed at him. I pointed at the door, not caring to look at him. I heard him turn around and walk to the door. I could hear on his footsteps that he waited for a reaction, but in the next few seconds he was out and the door closed behind him. As soon as the door was shut I broke down. I dropped down on the floor and hid my face in my hands, while the tears ran down my cheeks. I managed to duck down in my pocket after my phone, and sent one text with the word “Help”, before I crumbled together in a ball on the floor.

A half hour later I heard keys rustling and the door were flung open by the one, I had sent my text to. Jake took one look at me, slammed the door and ran to me, almost sliding on his knees to scoop me up from the floor and into his arms. “It’s alright, Ellie, I’m here now” he said, before I once again broke down with tears. He didn’t say more, just stroked my hair, while he rocked me back and forth. After a while he said “It’s Trey, right?” All I could do was to nod and sob at the same time. “I’m sorry, Ellie” he said, while he kissed me on the forehead and held me closer. I didn’t know how long we had sat on the floor, before I felt myself drift off to sleep. I could feel Jake shift around, before he lifted me up from the floor and into my bedroom. He turned the light off and laid down beside me, and I just crumbled against his chest, not letting go of his shirt. “I’m not going anywhere, Ellie. Don’t worry, I’m here when you wake up” he just said and hold me tight like he did before.
I woke up hours later and didn’t have a clue about what time it was or exactly where I was. Then I noticed that Jake’s arm was around me and our legs were tangled together. Jake must have felt my stirring around, because suddenly he tightened the grip around me and mumbled “Stay”. I smiled at him and put my head on the pillow again. “Okay, sleepyhead” was my answer to him. We laid so close, that I could feel his smile against my neck. “Shut up and sleep. It’s 2 in the morning” and I gladly took his request.

Write a love letter to your bed

(from the tumblr Write Now)

I always remember your feather light touches during the day. They are burned into my skin, and I shiver just remembering it. I love all about you; your warmness when I cuddle into you; your fluffiness when you lay your covers over me. I miss you every day I am away from you. You don’t know how much you mean to me. You support and comfort me every time I am sad. You lull me to sleep, when I need it the most, but you also keep me up, when I am most excited for things to happen. Every day I can come home and see you, and see the sleepiness in your eyes, and I smile at the sight of you. Because no one is there for me as you are. All the times we had great times with our two best friends, where we just cuddled together in a pile and watched all the sad, romantic and bad movies, we could find. You never leave me behind no matter what happens. That is why I love you.
