Belochka

The lights feel down on the pavement. My steps continue to grow larger with each line in the cement. My cheeks red from the cold wind blowing softly like a fan. My mother will never understand me. "Why must you be different?" she constantly questions me. I keep it out of my mind every time. "I only wish you would let me be!" I yell back. My eyes angry and loud. The tears still stain my cheeks. "Mother, please, understand me!" I think in my head. Passing the stores, the lights blink denial. The pictures flash back in my head. Her hand holding mine firmly in my room. A secret relationship nobody will understand fills. She slowly grabs my shirt and drags me towards her lips. I will always remember the kiss. Her lips touched mine, so softly and angelic, locked mine for only a minute. I wanted more but I did not allow myself to go any further. She stopped and looked into my eyes. Hers a golden wheat sunk into very soul. She grabbed my hand and caroused my cheek, red, and hot. She smirked and leaned onto me softly. Her body laid on me, it felt so good. We laid there for an hour. I couldn't shake the feeling after that. I've never felt so loved by anyone in my life. I never wanted to let go. The memories flashed out of my mind. I stood near the park bench. The night flashed its beauty before me. It screamed "Amy", I wanted her so much, I needed her love. My hand laid upon the wood, it was cold, and unfriendly. I only wish it would go away, everything, only me and her. The wind whipped my long auburn hair across my face. I let it stay there, maybe it would hide me from this world, and mother. I sit there and stare at the pair of flowers standing in the passing. I drift off a little, and I hear Amy's voice. "Melanie wake up, you need to go home, its not safe out here." I shake it away. Suddenly I feel a warm presence on my mouth. I remember it automatically and wake up. I gasp and stare at the person in front of me. A tall, skinny, teenaged brunette. I smile and grab her. "Amy, why are you here? How did you know I was gone?" I ask her. She giggles a bit and kisses my cheek. "Melanie, please, I know your scared of the world. Your not the only one." I tear up and the cold hurts my eyes. "Please my love, don't cry." She kisses my lips softly, it felt so good. "Amy, I can't go back, my mother doesn't understand me!" I tell her. She shakes her head no and grabs me up and hugs me tightly. "Melanie, I'm here for you, and one day, your mother will understand too." I cry on her shoulder. "Why Amy? Why doesn't she understand me?" I can hear her choking on her own tears. I grab her closer and we stand there together. "Okay Melanie, I got to get you home." she informs me, her eyes red from her tears. I try to get out of it but she insists everything will work out. "Okay my love, I understand, I will do it for you, of us." She smiles and kisses my on my forehead. "Good girl, now lets take you home." She opens the door for me and I get in the car. The leather seats calm me down. I slowly drift off into a deep sleep. There, a place, where nobody but me and Amy. Nobody else, a meadow, with flowers. I smile in my sleep. Amy smiles at me when I'm still sleeping. "Nobody, I mean nobody, will hurt you, I promise." she promises herself. I go back into my dream. Soon I can hear the car stop. "Okay Melly, we are here." she informs me. I shake my head no. "Will you come with me?" I whisper in her ear. She softly nods and we get out together. Her steps in step with mine. We walk into the house to where there is no acceptance for my kind.
