Okay this story takes place after Fragile Eternity. The story begins with Aislinn remembering how Seth stormed off. Hope you like it.
"He's my partner for the rest of eternity."
"No, he's a co-worker. I'm your partner"- he kissed her forehead-"for eternity if you want me. If he's your king, your friend, your co-worker, that's all fine. I don't want to keep you to myself with no other
people-or faeries-in your life, but I don't want to share your heart, especially not with someone who keeps hurting you. If you want to be with him, tell me. If you want to be with me, tell me that. You need to
figure out what you truly want, Ash. Come find me when you're ready to tell me I'm the only one"
And he left. It ripped some part of him to pieces, but he wasn't going to wait around hoping for scraps from Keenan's table.
Aislinn began to cry, tears cascading down her cheeks. She had been lonely, Keenan had wanted to make her happy, and that's what she let him do. It wasn't her fault. She'd thought Seth was never
coming back. She had wanted to be happy: for Keenan and for her court. They lived for her happiness.
"Aislinn?"
Keenan looked as lost as she felt. She yearned for someone to hold her in their arms, so she could feel safe and that nothing could hurt her.
He held out his arms, and she ran into them. She buried her face in the soft material of his shirt. Right now she didn't care about Seth and how he'd left. And how he'd come back and told her she'd
have to stop feeling the way she did about Keenan. She couldn't. Keenan was her king. But she didn't care about that right now. She only cared about Keenan, and being.. in his arms. She stepped
back, trembling.
"Keenan I'm sorry" she whispered "I didn't mean to I-"
Keenan brushed her cheek gently.
"Oh yes you did Aislinn"
His lips brushed hers; a taste of what he could give her. Aislinn shuddered. He tasted like sunlight.
She broke away, the tears started again.
"Oh Keenan I'm so confused" she sobbed. Keenan pulled her into his arms, and they sat on the sofa.
And he held her, stroking her hair until dawn.
Yes I know this is really short, but please review.. AislinnxKeenan forever :):)
