Chapter 5
Julie's eyes, cold violet, not caring, the blade of her knife pressed to my throat.
"Be afraid," her voice, sparkles of ice.
"Are you scared?" the blade pressing even further.
"No," I whisper back. I could never be afraid of Julie, the love of my life, how can she ask. I'd trust her with my life, I'd give it away for her.
"You have to be afraid!" the blade going all the way in and out of me, the blackness erupted around me, Julie's silver eyes disappearing in it. Her cold voice said, "You fool!"
Inside the darkness I can feel falling, but that registers as something from outside, I feel being pulled to light, to it warmness.
Then there is something pulling me back. All of the sudden I could feel the warmth on and in my neck, there is no pain only some sweet feeling.
Opening my eyes I saw Julie leaning on me, putting kisses on my neck. I could feel a rush of adrenaline through my body as the wound closed up, the skin growing back on with a speed of light.
"Why can't you be like everybody else?" her face inches away from me, her hair white as silver, eyes the same colour.
"Why can't you…" but she didn't let me finish, her lips pressing with passion against mine. Her muscles relaxing on mine, her hands on my hips… a first sight of madness in her eyes.
"I love you," she whispered to my skin, the world turned to white, the same colour as her hair, only our bodies against each other making sense. I loved you Julie.
I still do.
