Alright so this is my first writing on here. I've always loved to write and always wanted to try and get some of my work published. But that has not happened, I not really sure if I have much talent in the whole writing area.

I've never takin any writing courses or what so ever, but I do love to write. So when I found this site I figured I'd just read the stories here instead of writing. But after thinking about I figured what could the harm be in me getting opinions on my writing. So here it is. Good or bad let me hear it. I won't go and cry in the corner if you guys say is suck, critic is a necessary part of the art and writing world.

The rain refused to stop, drop after drop it came and soaked the ground beneath the mighty black cloud that covered the entire sky.

I stared out as the dirt ground turned to muck. Realizing that with how hard it had rained we would not be able to leave our shelter now. We would only succeed in getting our selves covered in mud and cold rain if we left now. With all the problem we were having right now, we didn't need to make the list any bigger.

I felt him shift from his original spot on the back wall of the cave to my right. I glanced over at him, feeling a wave of sadly spread through my chest. Did he really mean what he had said before? Did he regret the time we spent together?..

As I stood and thought to myself the more I looked at him, the more the feeling of dread filled me. I tried to fight off the negative feelings that were spreading through out me. But as he remained silent the feelings I didn't want to believe to be true, we're becoming real as the rain around us.

I took a deep breath as I turned to look at him, to ask what he was thinking. Just when I was about to ask him, his prussian eyes met my violet eyes. I quickly turned my head away and felt my cheeks flush, his beautiful eyes had always been a weak spot of mine. Just as I summed up my courage again he spoke,

"Is this right? Are we really suppose to be together.. To be happy and in love with each other. Tell me Cassandra, can we really do this?"

It broke my heart to hear those words from his mouth...but maybe he was right. Though even if he was right I still didn't want to believe it.

Angry welled up inside of me, so much so I turned to face him and yell at him as I felt tear drops drip down my face,

"How can you even say that?! After all the time we've spent together and after all that's happened.. How can you stand their and say this to me!"

As I finished my rant at Archer, he removed his self from his spot on the wall and stepped towards me. I stepped back away from him, but that didn't stop him. Each step he took towards me I took another back, until my back make contact with the left side of the cave wall. Before I could dart away from him, he took the last step towards me so our bodies were pressed together. His right arm encircled my waist as his left hand pulled my neck to rest in the crock of his neck.

I froze, this was not the first we had been in this position. In fact I had lost count in how many times we ended up like this, but it still had the same effect on me. It calmed me and comforted me, like I was the only one in this world and nothing else mattered. I wanted to push him away but I knew I would never have the heart to do that.

I gave in as I always had. I moved my hands so they pressed into his back, and pulled him as close as I possible could to me. I felt him sigh and relax his tensed up body as I did. He may of said some things a moment ago that hurt me...but knowing that this still caused the same feeling to him brought a smile to face.

I'm not sure how long we stayed like that but I didn't care. I didn't want this feeling of bless to disappear again. I felt him move slowly away from me and I reluctantly let go. I looked up at his eyes and was going to ask what we should do when he placed his right thumb across my lips. He stroked his thumb back and forth on my lips as his forehead light pressed against mine. He spoke softly as he looked deeply into my eyes,

"Shhh Cassandra, everything will be alright, I promise. Can you believe in me and trust this to be true?"

I nodded my head even if deep in my heart I felt as if something bad would still happen. He looked at me with a sad smile and kissed my forehead gently before tucking me back in the crock of his neck.

We stayed like that for a few moments before pulling away slowly. He took my hand in his, raising it to lips to place soft kisses across my knuckles.
