Haunted
Summary: J/K. Dom and Kel were in love, but he died. She had been alone for five years, cold and different. Then, Joren enters her life. Sucky summary, I know.

Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still cant find what keeps me here
She doesn't know why she stays with him. In some way, she loves him. Love. It was something she hadn't had for a long time, something that she didn't understand. Or didn't until him.
When all this time I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there
She'd been empty inside for years. Ever since Dom had died, her heart had been like the lake in winter: frigid and biting. The lake, however, would thaw come spring. But she didn't. All of her friends expected her to return back to her normal self, but she hadn't for almost five years. They had given up hope.
Watching me wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
He would watch her from far away. His piercing blue eyes followed her everywhere. He wanted her; there was no denying it. She was beautiful. And so cold. He had hope of thawing her out. He knew that she would do the same to him.
Fearing you loving you
I wont let you pull me down
She was afraid of him. She loved him, in a strange way. He was so perfect, sitting there. She knew him, though they hardly talked. She could see into his heart. She was afraid of her feelings. She refused to fall in love, to let him pull her down.
Hunting you I can smell you alive
Your heart pounding in my head
She could feel him, everywhere she went. She wondered what he thought about. How he felt. She knew him, but she wanted to know everything. She could see outlines when she looked in his eyes, nothing past that. She wanted to see the whole picture, know the whole story.
Watching me wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
He never stopped watching her. He never stopped wanting her. But what he felt was more than lust. He felt a strange emotion. Already, he had begun to thaw. He was in love. She was pulling him off his ice throne.
Saving me raping me
Watching me
He raped her. Raped her of the ice that held her together, the mask that she hid all her pain behind. He had taken it with just one kiss. She hated him for that. Yet, he had saved her. Saved her from the life she had condemned herself to.
I know, short and sucky. For some reason, I have been feeling rather depressed, and started listening to this song. (I always listen to Evanescence when I feel like that [not very often, by the way]) And this just stuck out as a K/J, for some reason.
