The power of words are almost magical in the way that they can trigger a physical reaction from those that hear them. The boy could feel their weight anchoring him to where he stood. A quiet growl rumbled in his throat, wishing that the girl would just make things easy. Of course she never did, always pushing him. It would take more clarity than he possessed to realize that she always pushed him in the right direction.
"Why are you so upset? Surely, you and ice queen Winters would be glad to see me go." Angry and confused, Helios shook his head.
Krissy turned her head to Helios with anger in her eyes.
"Why am I upset?! WHY AM I UPSET?!" She stood and was shaking with anger.
" Because I don't want yeh to leave yeh bleedin' moron! Do yeh really think I care what Kayla thinks about yeh leaving? I feel empty when yeh aren't around I feel like all the happiness has been drained out of me. I may not be able to keep yeh for me own, but I'll be darned if I want to lose yer friendship!!" Tears splashed down her red face. Swiping angrily at them she stared at Helios.
"I love you. I know you don't care, but since this is the last time I'll see yeh...there it is. I love yeh and it doesn't make a lick of difference. Once again Helios gets to hear something that doesn't matter to him and the little moon girl is left crying!" Reaching into her bag she pulled out the glass rose Helios had given her at the end of term feast in their first year.
"I don't know why I kept this all this time. Take it back..." She held it out to him her tiny hand shaking, her voice raspy and tears running down her face.
