dont look back

   ❝ i wouldn’t be away for so long if you were around more. ❞  a childish response to match his own, lustrous eyes are half-lidded & pupils the size of tea saucers ; she still smiles so sweetly, intoxicatingly so, even. 

     They have met at their usual rendezvous, an hour or so after evening has set in. both are hunters playing their parts in their own territories, have a few similar methods, but have very different ways dealing with how their results turn out. 

     A fellow predator being hunted isn’t so unheard of, not in evelynn’s case. of course, she fancies herself the superior hunter, as her charm & wit have fed the brunette’s ego & the flames of his rather.. nontraditional way of thinking.

     Sitting so close to each other, it’s a wonder he didn’t cup her face so possessively, like an actor to their mask ; but she won’t complain, because it allows her to remove her chin from its captor, & in return her own hand grasps at his wrist. her face then moves once more, but now seeking refuge in his palm. with his upper-torso distracted, she takes the initiative to nudge her knee against his, a challenging glint in her golden gaze.

❛  looks like a little mouse lost its way.  ❜

❛  leave me alone.  ❜

❛  where to? i’ll be your escort.  ❜

❛  don’t get alarmed, but i’m being followed. act normal.  ❜

❛  sorry, looks like you’re involved.  ❜

❛  are you listening?  ❜

❛  i want to know what you want.  ❜

❛  it’s your life — do something for yourself for once.  ❜

❛  you sound ghastly! like some ninety year old woman!  ❜

❛  make up your mind! are you gonna let me in or not?  ❜

❛  just keep quiet and don’t cause any trouble.  ❜

❛  i’m not taking any orders from you! ❜

❛  so, what do you have hidden in your pocket?  ❜

❛  that can’t be good for the table.  ❜

❛  please – help – falling — i’m falling —  ❜

❛  you okay?  ❜

❛  no — i’ve seen all that i can take.  ❜

❛  i give up. i see no point in living if i can’t be beautiful.  ❜

❛  i can’t stand how scared i am.  ❜

❛  don’t worry, i’ll follow behind you in disguise.  ❜

❛  why do i feel like this isn’t going to work?  ❜

❛  wait — help — i can’t make it —  ❜

❛  pull yourself together. isn’t this what you’ve been waiting for?  ❜

❛  what on earth happened to you?  ❜

❛  whatever you do, don’t look down.  ❜

❛  you saved me. i was in big trouble back there.  ❜

❛  don’t try to be cute — i’m still not going to trust you.  ❜

❛  i missed you.  ❜

❛  go away.  ❜

❛  you’re too late.  ❜

❛  this isn’t going to be easy.  ❜

❛  i said move.  ❜

❛  it’s a present for you.  ❜

❛  i feel so at home.  ❜

❛  so, you are going away.  ❜  

❛  uh-oh, here they come.  ❜  

❛  no, don’t let go!  ❜  

❛  i’m too old to be treated like this!  ❜  

❛  strapping young men are so difficult to deal with.  ❜  

❛  you’ll forgive me, won’t you?  ❜  

❛  we’re a family now!  ❜  

❛  i’m sorry, i should’ve gotten here sooner.  ❜  

❛  i don’t care if you’re a monster!  ❜  

❛  i’ve had enough of running away.  ❜  

❛  and now, i’ve got something i want to protect.  ❜  

❛  there’s no time to lose, we have to try something!  ❜  

❛  i don’t know what’s gonna happen, but i’m sure it can’t be good. ❜  

❛  told you we should’ve stayed put. ❜  

❛  they say that the best blaze brightest when circumstances are at their worst.  ❜  

(distressed wheezing)

❛  i just can’t seem to stop crying.  ❜  

❛  i didn’t mean to make you wait this long.  ❜  

❛  don’t look at me, i don’t have it. i don’t know what you’re talking about.  ❜  

❛  you’d better take good care of it.  ❜  

❛  i feel terrible.. like there’s a weight on my chest.  ❜  

❛  a heart’s a heavy burden.  ❜
