Wrap your teeth around the pavement

M  A   E    A I talked to God to no avail Said, "If you won't save me, please don't waste my time." He made her name sound almost like a prayer. Or perhaps a curse; when he turned and she met his gaze, she wasn't quite sure which. There was a storm brewing in those gray eyes, but the girl just smiled at it, a sad little spark of moonlight offered before his clouds could completely shut it out. "You don't get to tell me what to do, fishboy," she told him, quite gentle as she repeated her words from another night spent talking in this bar. At this very spot. "They're my feelings, I think I know them well enough to tell if it's real or not." And as she ler ger eyes pass over him, there was a depth to the emotions he brought out in her that... could not be explained by the simple want of a crush. If it had been only puppy love and lust, it would have faded when she learned of his relations with others. Would have died that moment wjen he left her side to stand beside Nate, denying her simple request for pleasure. But no. It had only made her see the truth behind the flushed confusion. It was quite real.
