As he pulled away from their kiss, Destiny shut her eyes tightly. Knowing that it wouldn't be long before he pulled away for good brought fresh tears rolling down her face. She shook her head as he spoke, not believing for one second that this, this meeting on the moving staircases, would be the last time they would be together.
It couldn't be the last time; they loved eachother.
And she was not going to stand there and listen to him give her compliments that she did not want to hear and that she will forget him. "No." she said firmly, her eyes snapping open and the tears done flowing for the moment. "I WILL NOT forget about you. I CAN NOT forget about you." Taking a few shaky breaths to calm herself, she moved her arms from around his neck and placed her hands on his cheeks. "I love you. And I will wait for you. For as long as it will take you to come back to me."
Destiny was saying exactly had Patroclus had wanted her to say, that she would wait from him, that she was would still hold him in her heart forever, but it was selfish for him to allow her to do so,
"Destiny, I love you but, I can't let you waste your love on me, just remember this, this moment, love this but, but don't wait for me......." his chest was heaving, as it this was to be his last breath, as if his world was about to end,
"I can't deal with the idea that I have left you behind, waiting for me, not living your life, not loving, the guilt will kill me, long before the dangers I am about to face will."
At that moment, a blue light seemed to soar through the window pane that stood but a few steps from them, the light materilised itself into a great eagle, the voice of the Eldest Hudson son coming from it beak,
"I am at the gates..."
This was it, he had to leave, placing his hand onto of Destiny's he smiled at her,
"We would have been amazing.....we are amazing....." Pulling her towards him, Patroclus passionately kissed her, one last time, before summoning his bag and tearing himself away from her.
As he began to walk down the now still staircase he turned to look at up at her. He went to speak, but nothing came out, everything had been said, he would love her forever, and he would find her one day......after all she was his Destiny....
