Chapter 1A Chapter by Beverly JaneI just wanted a touch..I closed my eyes stepping into the angry flames. I let out a
silent breath standing there. The warmth of the fire engulfed my body. I felt
the exhaustion that I had just felt moments before slip away from me; suddenly
I had enough energy to run around the earth a couple of times. I opened my mouth
letting the fire enter it, then I blew it out and it hit the glass wall
surrounding me bouncing back into my mouth as I swallowed. I opened my eyes to see him standing out my glass fortress
watching me carefully with his blue eyes. His black hair had a blue tint to it
and he stood tall. He looked tired, which I hated. I told him to go and take
care of himself. I let out the fire from my mouth. He smiled at me as if to
say, “hey baby girl no worries, I’m fine.” I was almost completely sure that he
would have said that to me if I wasn’t in my fire filled fortress here. Sometimes
I felt as if fire was my prison, I could never escape it. Not only that, I
can’t tell him the truth. The truth of my feelings, sadly because it would
never change anything. I touched the glass looking at the reflection of my house. I
stood tall with my long wavy red hair burning at the ends, my red eyes glow
brightly. Fire released its self from the tips of my fingers. Feeling myself
taken care of, I opened the door and all the fire blew out. He did that
beautiful crooked smile that took my breath away every time. “Hey babe,” he
spoke lightly with longing in his eyes. I wished to touch him, to hug him, to even just hold his
hand. “What you looking at dork?” I smiled walking past him. He rolled at his
eyes walking beside me. “Feel better?” he questioned. I looked at him
impatiently. “Well, I wouldn’t of got out of the chamber if I didn’t,” I
teased. He stuck his tongue out at me and I did the same to him. “Ready
to go to the club babe?” he asked. I rolled my eyes at him and smiled showing
teeth. “What you think boo?” my voice was playful. He smiled, leading me to his
old corvette that he’s been working on. I climbed into the passenger seat and he sat in the driver’s
seat. He started to drive, not much light shining in the car, nor on the
streets. He looked over at him, and I couldn’t tell what facial expression he
was wearing. I pursed my lips at him, and he was still silent. I reached over
to turn on the radio and he grabbed my hand. We both screamed in pain, and he
drove the car off the road into the ditch. Clutching my hand, I stared at him angrily. “You know we cannot
touch!” I hissed. He looked at me then quickly looked away. His voice was weak
when he spoke, “I was just wishing that maybe it changed.” I suddenly flashed back to the first time that we had tried
to touch. I looked away quickly, remembering the day perfectly. “I’m scared,” the
little girl said. The little boy looked at her and smiled. “It’s okay our mommy’s
have to be somewhere around here!” “B-but what if they left us?” The girl
gasped tears entering her eyes. “There’s no way,” the boy exclaimed looking
around the mall curiously. The little girl felt overwhelmed, with all of these
people running into her. “Mommy!” she started to scream, but the boy could not
bear to see the little girl cry. “It’s okay Kaji,” he said to her grabbing her
pain. This strange explosion of pain happened. *** © 2012 Beverly JaneAuthor's Note
