4. Dark

'We were dancing, dancing, like we're made of straight.'

"What can you see?" I hear Marina asking me.

Sooner, I asked her to help me with something.

Now we're in a dark room, no lights at all. I wanted to see how good I can see in the dark; maybe it will be important someday. And maybe, I only wanted to spend some time with her.

"Nothing." I answer. I wonder what she'll do.

"But you can feel things, right?" she says, "Close your eyes."

And I do as she said. "What do you mean by feel things?"

"I'm standing right next to you now, can you feel it?" She asks.

It's a little weird; it's like a feel her warmth, almost like her energy.

"Yes, I feel it."

"And if I do this?" she asks again, and I can feel that her hands are rising in front of me. "Can you touch my hands?" she says, and I grab both of her hands.

"Good," she says softly, "And if I do…" she pulls her hands away and spinning until she stops behind me "… this?" I hear her giggling. "Did you feel something?"

"Yeah, some wind from your spinning," I laugh and turn around to her.

"Now, tell me something," I put my hands on her cheeks gently, "Can you feel this?"

"E-Eight... What are you-?" she starts to ask, but I quickly press my lips to hers.

5. Seeking Solace

'Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one.'

Eight is always there for me, every time I need someone to cheer me up.

"Marina," I hear his voice behind me. "Are you okay?" I turn around to see him with a worried expression on his pretty face, his eyes look sad.

"Yes, I'm okay," I say quietly, but that's not true.

"Oh really? Then why I don't believe you?" He answers and I look at the floor sadly.

I've been thinking about Adelina and Hector. I miss them so much. Hector died because of me and Adelina died while protecting me. I want her next to me.

Eight walks to me and all the thoughts suddenly disappear.

"Please tell me what happened, Marina," He looks right into my eyes.

"It's nothing, really."

"Well, tell me when you want to talk, okay?" I can't help but smile, his voice is so sweet and warm.

He wraps his hands around me and we hug. It's so comforting and nice; I close my eyes and hug him back, giving in to his warmth.

"I'm sorry," He says as we pull away, "You probably want to be alone right now," He's about to walk away, but I grab his hand before he can go. I don't want you to go, Eight.

"No, No," I say quickly, "It's okay, really," He looks at me, a little surprised. "Let's take a little walk, I'll tell you," I smile.

He smiles back softly, "Okay, I would love to."

I don't care if we aren't together now, I mean, I hope we will end up together, but right now I just want to be close to him.

I hope you liked today's drabbles :D
