Ice Covered Road to dreams pt 4

A Dream ~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~~*~~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~~*

It had begun to snow in Kerning City. Aaru ran through the streets of Kerning, in her red calaf, red Napoleon cape, and red flame circlet, in search of Rogue. “Rogue… where… are you?” she panted stopping under a street lamp trying to catch her breath. She was used to the cold weather since she was an Ice-Lighting Wizard. She had fallen upon her knees trying to hold herself from crying. “You said you came back… you said you’d be here… Please don’t let this be a lie… not from you Rogue, not from you.” She brought her hands up to her lips as she shut her eyes to release her tears from her eyes as she closed them.

A dark shadow appeared behind Aaru, hovering over her. She wept silently as the dark figure attempted to touch her on the top of her head but she had opened her eyes to see someone’s shadow over her. Aaru then turned around to see the tall figure’s face covered in darkness. “I would never lie to you… Aaru-chan” The voice said to her as he kneeled before her touching her bare shoulders. Aaru saw the dark figure’s face in the light more clearly to on find that it was Rogue standing over her with a soft smile upon his lips. Her sadness was quickly uplifted as she threw her arms around him, kissing him deeply under the light of street lamp as snow fell on and around them. Rogue had held her back tightly, kissing her lips deeply in return traveling his soft tender kisses from her lips to her cheek moving upward to her ear as he bit it lightly.

“I love you Aaru…” He confessed his true feelings for her as he held her hand lacing his fingers with her.
“Do… you really mean it?” Aaru said in a soft tone.
“Yes… I do. I’ve always loved you, the first day I met you.” He said to her as he held her in his arms tightly, covering their bodies within his black Napoleon cape.

Aaru looked up at him, her eyes glimmered with passion as she tried to hold back more tears. Rogue leant in to kiss her again upon her lips as he slowly laid her down in the snow having himself on top of her. Their eyes meet for a moment, feeling as though time itself stopped in their favor. Rogue had begun to kiss her neck again, moving slowly towards her bare shoulders. Aaru shut her eyes as another tear fell and glided down her the side of her face. She had slowly begun to tremble all over, her lips and cheek becoming a light rosy color.

“Don’t… leave me again… Please.” She said softly, her lips trembling lightly.
“Forgive me for ever leaving you…” He said through his kisses.
“Promise me you’ll never leave me again…”
“Our love… is to cry when we say our good-byes.”
“Please, promise me.” More tears had begun to shed from her eyes.
“Let our love stop time tonight, and create only a world that you and I could only live in.” He whispered to her as he kissed her tears away.

Rogue had taken out a dagger from his pouch. Lightly caressing Aaru’s skin on her neck with the edge. She had opened her eyes to look up at him, to find him shedding tears from his eyes and looking down back at her. He had leaned in once more to kiss her upon her lips deeply as he slowly cut Aaru’s skin with the blade. “Lets live in a world where only you and I can live in… and then we would never have to say good-bye.” He said to her as the blood slowly oozed from the wound on her neck onto her hair and snow. Aaru had began to cry silently as he cried with a soft painful smile.

“I’ll… go with you to anywhere you want to go, just don’t leave me… please don’t throw me away.” She said to him as she cried, wrapping her arms around him tightly once more.
“There is no one to replace you, my love, I will never throw you away.” He said slowly piercing the dagger into her side.
“Ah! Rogue!” She winced in pain as she looked up at him, grabbing him tightly on his back as he winces in pain in return, feeling an open large wound on his back. “It’s…it’s warm and wet…” she said with a slight shocked look on her face.
“I know.” He said as he fell on her, holding her tightly.
”Are… you dying, are you hurt?”
“I’m afraid so.”
“I don’t want to be alone anymore…”
“You… don’t have to be.” He quickly took out the dagger from her side and blood quickly tainted her calaf. He then dropped the dagger unto the snow the blood tainting the perfectly white snow. “I’ll… die with you…” She kissed him deeply whispering her words in his ear. “I… want to be with you… forever.” She said to him.
“I know.” He said in return. He rolled over to her side and held her in his arms, both rapped in his Black Napoleon, hand in hand. The both close their eyes in their embrace.

From the sky, red rose pedals slowly fell as though it was snow, and there was a child between them, alive and well. Reaching his tiny little hands towards the sky. “Our love... is the world that you and I created between you and I… Aaru.”

I had woken up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night in the Perion Inn. It was still raining. I had thought someone was there to my left watching over me while I slept, and for a moment I had thought I had seen Rogue sitting there watching me. But no one was there. I looked towards the window watching the rainfall, noticing the rose pedals on my balcony and on my bed. I had quickly touched my side to find a small scar. I felt the tears build up in my eyes and I had begun to cry, holding my legs to my chest having a heaving feeling upon my heart. The candle to the right of me, on my nightstand, had completely melted away. I then had reached for my communicator to perform a middle-of-the-night find for Rogue… he was nowhere to be found. It was just a dream… he’s not coming back. I thought to myself as I stood awake for the rest of the night.
