Stars in the Darkness

Maze: I opened my arms while you ran to me. I smiled at you feeling the blood from my veins dissipate from my body. You stumbled back in stock to your actions but I pulled you back to me with little strength I had left. I grabbed you and pulled you close to me. I don’t know your reasons to your actions but if your anger and pain towards me disappeared, then I’d be more than happy to sacrifice this for you. Even though your actions are great and fearful, I do not care. I still love you. I stole a kiss since you stole a life. A kiss I have been longing for. A kiss I thought was our last. Xarius: She just stood there. I can’t even remember what led me here…on this battlefield surrounded by death we caused. Thoughts just kept surrounding me until I felt small hands pull me back to were I was. When I- what have I done. I held her until she was limp in my arms. Until we need again- my love. **** She wants love, freedom, adventure, a voice and so much more beyond the imagination. She wants to control her own story but the world she lives in won't allow her. Writing is the only thing they can't take from her. So she writes to express herself like she never could. But when a man passing though seems to have everything she's ever dreamed of and wanted, she second guesses herself. Will she stay in a home where she has to give up everything she wants for her family, or will she make a deal with the devil to make them come true?
