Noticing Newbies

I perched up against her; letting my feet dangle and scrape the brown rubber soles beside the cold brick.



We sat there, with our heads bobbed up, kissing the vast set of stars

seemingly not noticing each other.

I felt a sudden burst of warmth against my ample hand;

I dipped my chin down, sweeping my eyes to her hand clasped in mine.

“What do you want in this world?” She asked me smoothly, not churning an inch from her skyward gaze.

I quivered a breathy tone, “I, I’m not sure I've found that out yet Kay.”

She squeezed her hold a bit more, “What you've told me, from the other day-is it true. I mean, do you believe it?”

My eyes grew warm, “uh, well-I, I’m not sure what to believe anymore. Don’t you want to pursue it?”

my heart skipped a beat as the warmth from my hand lifted, “Khai will stop at nothing to find out the past, I’m just worried what he’ll find.”



Her words cast my gaze down to our feet.



- I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did writing it! Feel free to leave me a message, I relish conversation.

p.s. it is a bit of a sneak-peek into my latest work in progress, oops! (;
