It was early in the morning I remember and it was about mid 1850s. At that moment of the day that I can clearly remember we were laying naked in a pasture a few miles out of town. We had just made love for the first time in this era and we were breathing heavily next to each other.We were a scandal in our small part of the town. Her father had tried to force her to marry a man in town and she of course wanted nothing to do with it. The moment she fought the arranged marriage, is the moment she started to seek me out. She was leaving at all times of the night and searching through small towns that surrounded her. We found each other in a market of all places in one of those small towns. She was bartering a local baker about some bread and I walked up beside her. At first I didn't even realize who she was until she turned to look at me. My heart beat uncontrollably. I was enthralled with her beauty once again.Our eyes met and we were overcome with joy. We made sure to carefully plan o
Chloris stood to the side as she brought out a small book with leather binding. I tried to get a good look at it but was distracted by her dress. it almost looked like the greens and blues of her dress were moving slowly. She was the most odd looking person I had ever met. Her white fluffy hair was long and almost to her waist. She had quick hands and her eyes were full of kindness and concern. I looked over at Deacon who stood in the corner. He stared long and hard at what was going on before his eyes finally landed on me. I couldn't decipher the look in his eyes but I didn't like it. I wanted him smiling at me, not looking at me like he was going to lose me. I smiled softly at me as he quickly came to me and kissed my forehead."Come back to me." his words came out so soft I wasn't even sure if that's what he said. But I knew it was. I wasn't whole. I wasn't who he thought I should be. I should at least try. Maybe I will remember and be able to break this curse that was placed amo
She was and is my world.My end all be all.My sun. My moon. My stars.My agapitós.My beloved.I have never had enough time with her. But is there anything as enough time with the one that your soul is bound to till the end of time?Every century I find her and then I lose her. It's different every time. Train accident, childbirth, animal attack, war, famine, etc.I see it happen every time. Another piece of myself ripped from myself as she dies.And there is absolutely nothing I ca
Deacon. God that man made my body light up like a Christmas show.Deacon made me feel things all over my entire body.Things I don't think I have ever felt in my entire existence. When he grabbed my hand it was like an instant tether to him. There was absolutely no going back to anything I had before the moment I met him.When I walked away from him my body was screaming to go back. For once, even my conscience agreed. Hearts and minds are never in agreement either. Especially mine, but my body unfortunately kept moving out the door.Why did I feel like I knew him? He looked so familiar and so did the guy walking in as I was leaving. I had to have seen them somewhere, this town is too small to not know everyone.I stared up at the stars in the sky outside of the Mexican restaurant. I wanted to go back in and shake him and ask why I felt this way towards him, but I was a complete and utter chicken shit. Plus that would definitely put me in the psycho stalker region of a relationship.I
Deacons POVIt was Friday and I was patiently awaiting the time to get off work and pick her up.My mind raced all week. I had found her. My everything.I can't believe I was about to leave this town. If I did I would have never seen her.I sighed as I sat in my office chair. I swiveled around staring at the front door to the carpentry shop I had owned over the years. A few of us immortals switched in and out over time always making things for the local community.I just finished a dinner table that sat 12. A family that just built a house needed a huge table. It only took me 2 weeks but it was a beautiful table. Made out of a tree that they had cut down at their old house.The doorbell rang as a few of the members of that family bounded in to the office.Upon noticing them I realized I recognized a couple of them. They were part of her family."Hey young man." The Uncle, I presumed, came up to me and shook my hand. A young man came in after him."Hey. You're the guy from the restauran
The restaurant was beautiful and here I sat a bundle of nerves. I felt hot. Was I sweating? Oh please don't let my deodorant fail me now. But as for Deacon. He looked like a tall glass of sweet tea on a hot late July day. In other terms he looked amazing sitting across from me. I couldn't keep his eyes off of him when he showed up at my door. The way his jeans fit his ass so perfectly and his gray v-neck molded his chest and arms to the point where I have actually mistaken him for a Greek God. I take a look around the restaurant to try and calm my nerves before the food gets here. I can feel his eyes on me as I stare at a mural of a vineyard in Italy. Oh, I see food coming out. Please let it be our food. My stomach rumbles loudly to my embarrassment. Deacon smirks at me and pulls my chair closer to his. I'm so close I'm almost on top of him. At this point it probably wouldn't be a bad idea in all honesty. Anthony set down 6 plates of food for us to eat. They were filled with past
I can't help but watch her from afar. I knew she would be hanging out with her friends, but unlike her friends, she hates shopping. So I knew they would be at the local outlet mall. Which is another reason I picked this restaurant to talk to Axel, Aaron, and Beatrix about everything going on. Even after our make out session at The Point where we almost dry humped each other like 15 year olds on the table, I still couldn't think straight. It frustrates me to no end. I run my hands through my hair as my elbows meet the hard metal table outside on the restaurant patio. They will be here in a minute and I need to get my anger under control before they sense it. I see the moppy heads of Axel and Aaron as a cute redhead comes running at me first. Beatrix is Axel's agapitos. Her nickname is Bea though. She hates her full name. When they found each other they realized what they were and have never had the problems Stephanie and I do. Her arms squeezed me as I hugged her back. She was like
That kiss made me seems actual stars. It made me see constellations filled with stars so bright they blinded me. I blinked a couple of more times as he stared down at me. I slowly looked up at him and he ran his hand down my cheek again. "Tuesday?" He asked, his deep voice breaking through the silence. "Yeah. Text me?" I asked and he nodded. He kissed my forehead as I turned to get in my car but he stood there until I drove off. As I drove home I could only think of him. His voice, the way his hands were on me, how I felt safe, but not overwhelmed at the same time. This is all going so fast it's almost confusing. As I drive up in to my driveway I see my friends have already made their way in to the house and have music on and yelling about something. I grab my bags and smile at the pink bag that I grabbed last. Definite surprise for him whenever the time is right. "Mamas home!" The girls yell as Tucker sprints towards me and licks my face. "Hey baby." I whisper to him as I
