" I cant risk anyone getting hurt. Not you, Macha, ace, Dani. No one. They've been after me since I was 3. They have not stopped. I've been here too long. Im turning myself in to the R.A.C. then you'll be safe. I have to go." She started crying again, wrapping her arms around Peter.
"No," Peter spoke, "I'm not letting you go." His demeanor was oddly calm, yet his voice a stern sort of reassuring. "You can talk to me, Skylar.. If you turn yourself in, who's to say I won't do it too?"
"you cant!" Skylar cried exasperated. "Im doing this for you guys. Why would you turn yourself in too? Listen. My whole family died, leaving me alone. It was the R.A.C. I found Jean and Jacob, they were my best friends. Jacob killed Jean. Then ran off with the R.A.C. Then I found Adam. I was in love, Peter. And he killed himself because he was tortured by the R.A.C. I CANT LET YOU GET HURT TOO! I love you, Peter. Though I've only known you for a short time, I truly love you. I cant let anything happen to you."
"Will-" He paused to fix the break in his voice, a ribbon of moisture threatening the brim of his stoney colored eyes. "If you're going to leave me.." he exhaled, trying to come to grips with her sudden decision, "Promise me a last dance."
"Peter.." She pleaded, "I have to go."
"Just say yes.." he resisted a whimper by whispering, "Please. I've already lost a lover. This is the least you can do to soften the pain of departure.. after everything we've done for one another."
"I.. Cant. dance." Sky looked down, embarrassed and upset that she couldn't fulfill Peters last wish from her.
"I'll teach you," he attempted, unable to resist crying now. "I didn't even get a warning, Skylar..!"
"Fine." She whispered, looking up into his tear filled eyes. "Teach me "
(okay guys I read the whole thing and I love this story. If you don't mind I'd love to introduce my character and meet you guys at the ball.)
(That sounds awesome! I'm sure @TopazWyrmlet~ wouldnt mind, but I would wait for her approval. Would you mind giving us a character description in the meantime?)
(yeah sure! I've been trying to come up with something original as I was reading and here's what I came up with…)
Name: Francesca Martin
Age: 18
Looks: tall, strong, curly red hair, usually pulled back in a "Ponytail" tho it looks more like a poofy bun since it's so curly, usually seen in a sweatshirt or novelty t-shirt, jeans and a high top orange converses. Bright green eyes and a bright smile.
Personality: Super awkward, energetic, loveable, naive, kind.
Powers: None, as far as she knows…
(wow! You read fast Haha! Pretty sure @Lil-Owl left or something. )
(sounds pretty good! Im sure @Topaz wont mind.)
(Cool thanks, I'll still wait tho. Let me know when you're ready for me to hop in.)
(Thanks! I'm excited to meet her!)
(You're so prepared. It amazes me. When I came up with Blake he was not nearly as advanced as this.)
(Scratch that. I edited the pictures.)
(Before I forget guys, this is Blake's profile: Invalid Character
You can all ignore the hair description since his hair is a bit longer specifically in this rp and some other specific terms that go with the actual story he's in.)
(cool! Ill have mine too probably tomorrow. )
Ace stood awkwardly to the side, his face holding in an incredibly large grin, as he walked into the room Macha was in and sat down. "Hey." he smiled at her and kissed her cheek, "I wonder if you're jealous that I got to witness their first kiss." Ace grinned and held her hand. He went silent for a moment, thinking about Skylar's screams, "I do know how it feels, we all do. We're all broken. We all have the tiny shards of a glass heart that we've tried to fix, but each time we do, they get broken into smaller pieces. But in the end, it's our friends that heal us, people we care about that collect all the shards and glue them back into place with their love, that's what Skylar needs. It's what we all need." Ace kissed the back of Macha's hand, "We can all love each other."
"I will, I will," Peter's smile returned little by little, holding Skylar's head with tne gentlest of hands and pressing a kiss to her forehead. "You are the best thing,"
(AHHHH THIS IS SO SWEET!)
Skylar hugged Peter tightly. "So. What kind of dance are we doing?" She asked lightly. "Hip-hop? Jazz?" She laughed quietly and held onto Peter's hands.
(Welcome @hope Berge!)
“I love you Ace.”, Macha whispered, smiling at his soft words and holding back tears for Sky. “I’m just worried about Sky…”
(Don't worry. If Peter does this right, haha Sky will stay. but she will be depressed for a while because she thinks everyone will get hurt. If peter does this wrong, she will leave but won't get very far before coming back, haha)
