"We're just two different beings, we don't fit. Like the moon and the sun." I whispered.
"What if you're wrong, what if you're the moon and I'm the sea. And I wait all day just to see you light up my dark."

Dancing with your ghost - Sasha Sloan 🎶
The spins.
The feeling you get when you've drank too much, didn't eat enough food. The feeling you get when you're on a rollercoaster and need to get off.
Or when you've downed a bottle of pills to try and kill yourself.
Spinning.
Fucking spinning.
I don't know how long I've been sitting in the dark for, hours, days I've lost count now. The space around me was the same as that night at Jimin's, where I was on cold black flooring and the first time I met Araya.
I could hear the slow dripping of the tap from behind my back, but nothing around but me and an endless black silent void. "Hello?" I called as my voice echoed low and scattered. "Is anyone there?"
"Anyone there?..there..there.."
My head pounded as I held it in my hands. My chest feeling weighted and tense, making it hard to inhale deep breaths. Did I die? Was I being punished for trying to die? Before I could try and stand, my legs became weighted and numb, just like before. There was a faint scent of lavender and ocean in the air, as the dripping got louder and louder, echoing in my brain and making my head throb worse.
"Ahh my darling girl, we meet again."
I raised my head from my hands and slowly opened my drooping eyes. Staring before me was Araya herself, gorgeous black tresses that were pinned back into a half loose bun, and golden yellow piercing eyes that kept me locked into her gaze. Her cream and pearl laced gown, draped the void as she cascaded towards me. I couldn't find the right words to say, so I just met her eyes and waited for her to speak again.
"Are you trying to get yourself banished to the dark Athena?" She asked as her voice was melodic, like she was singing her words to me.
"No ma'am, that was not my intention."
Memories of swallowing every pill were starting to flood my mind again, feeling my gut twist at the shame of what I had done. I didn't mean to upset anyone, I just wanted the pain to stop.
"Then what was?"
I went silent and tried to muster the courage to respond. "Miss Araya, it was not my intention to cause any harm to anyone, only myself."
She stood before me emotionless as tense energy filled the space between us. "That is not what I have asked you, so let's try that again. Then what was it Athena?"
Silence filled the void again as I bit my bottom lip.
"I wanted to die."
She then softened her gaze on me and knelt before me, putting her frail and bony hands on top of mine. "Now we're getting somewhere, why did you want to die? You're a witch and a wolf, you have so much power. You can be anything, do anything. The world is yours my child."
