Chosen

Chapter 22

Chapter 22

- Realization.

I close my eyes tightly as I take in this moment.

Me.

Adam.

In the heart of Nostalgia.

Both of us.

Together.

Wrapped in each other's arms ever so tightly.

Just feeling his light and slow breathing on my ears soothes me, knowing that he's here and will always be here to protect me. Knowing that he can comfort me though this heartbreak as I am to his. I'm being an idiot.

Thinking that he will 'always' be there for me. To protect me from harms ways even though our time together has only been a day. But in this very unexpected orthodox day I feel like he was my comfort, my rock through it all and I like that I can depend on him because I know I can trust him because he's just like me.

Chosen.

Chosen for the same reason I was ,because the Wisp saw something in us it didn't in everyone else.

Our passion for life.

Our scars that the people we loved put on us.

Our salty tears that fall as we think of the people that we love.

Our need to get up and face life even though we know what lies ahead.

We do this everyday because we don't let fear, hate, regret, pain or our thick deep and heavy scars weigh us down and let us not do what we love most.

Live...

Maybe that's why we were chosen because of how hard our life's have been ,because of our need to strive and find happiness in our life's.

Even in the deepest darkest corners of our life, we always find our way back to happiness and now we no longer must strive to be happy for our selfs but for the happiness of all the people. For all of the people in Nostalgia.

This is why we were

Chosen.

Now that I have realized this I'm am ready for all the scars that lie ahead as I move on the be ruler.

For these scars and the further scars that I will bare will no longer be for the need for me to strive on and be happy but it will be for the people of Nostalgia.

Adams sweet voice brings me back to reality and I smile.

"Hey Theens have you had enough, or would you like this moment to never end like I do?" Adam whispers in my ear as he holds me closer.

"You still haven't told me the story." I say smiling as I look up at Adam.

"You don't need to hear it. I think you just need some time to process all if this but for now let's just enjoy right now okay?" Adam says smiling has he pets my hair and puts his head on my chin. It's awkwardly weird how short I feel when he does this, but it makes me feel more at ease like he can suddenly protect me and shield me from the world whenever needed to. But now that I'm here with Adam so close. Being able to hear his heart beat quicken a bit when he's around me I can't stop thinking about James and where he is now. Why did he go? And why didn't he say goodbye.

"Hey Earth to Theens?" Adam says sweetly and I look at him has he smiles.

"What is it?" I say smiling like an idiot.

"Nothing you just like spaced out on me, I thought you were frozen for a second actually." Adam starts laughing and I chime in. I feel like I've known Adam for years and that I can tell him everything and anything and by this very bipolar conversation we had just had, it felt like we did.
