39. (frozen) Red/Sapphire
It was the thrill, fire hot adrenaline that rushed through their veins when they battled. It was the exhilaration they felt afterward falling to the ground breathless. It was the excitement they felt formulating battle strategies. It was the adventures through forests and mountains and jungles she took him to, showing him the wonder of the world that she knew he'd appreciate. It was the warmth of his hands when he helped her up after losing a battle.
It was laughing after so much fun and turning to look at each other when the laughter dies and they're staring. Blue to Red, Red to Blue. It was leaning away unsure. It was thinking about a boy who looked so much like Red. It was thinking of a blonde haired girl with kindness in her heart. It was the guilt that this could possibly because he looked so much like Ruby. It was the guilt that he was four years older; Sapphire was only sixteen.
It was them both getting up awkwardly. It was the silence that brewed between them. It was the thoughts racing in their head.
It was the hand that Red offered her, and it was she who took it.
