Chapter 2 - Crimson Infinity: Act Two

Master Spork
Crimson Infinity:
Act Two

        I ran as fast as I could to that damp, cold, stone building. He almost figured me out, almost got me to talk.

        "Crimson,"
        "What Emerald?" The wind was blowing that cool autum day.
        "How was it?"   
        "How was what?"
        "you know..."
        "Oh, that..."
        "Yeah, that."
        "It hurt quite a bit..." He said as he felt the three new earrings in his left ear. "Why would you want to know?"
        "Because I want earrings* when I'm older..."
        "WHAT!?"
        I can't believe I said that...

        My heart was beating faster than normal, and I was crying. I had locked my door, but I knew just how pathetic the attempt to keep him away was, for he had the key to my door. Now I'm having doubts about giving him the key in the first place.
        A few moments later, I hared the door click unlocked. I knew who it was, I did not bother looking. He walked over to me, over to the sobbing lump in the corner of my room.
        "I know that somthing is bothering you Emerald, please tell me what's going on..." His voice was still full of worry.
        "I... I had a vision about you..." My voice shook.
        "It's okay, you can tell me..."
        "No... I can't."I shook my head, still averting my eyes frrom his face, from his eyes... his eyes are such a beautiful hue of gold, it almost annoys me.
        "Fine. Emerald, you know that I have other ways of getting answers from you..."
        "I... know..."

        I loved him, so I couldn't let him die. I loved him more than the air I breathe, more than the blood in my veins. He is why I stayed alive, so all I needed to do, was to keep him from levaing me forever...

*When a woman gets earrings, it signifies marriage, earrings mean that a divorce occured or the husband had died ant the widow remarried (in that kingdom only)
