Pureness from the past, those relishing in the bliss of one another. Worlds together, happiness in the presence of each other. Simple sentiments, embracing in these feelings. The warm sun, that light shining down, bathing a grassy field. The young woman lying within it, her arms behind her head. This gently blowing breeze, her flowing black hair. The wonderful scent, deeply inhaling then exhaling. Difficulty of her life, yet this of her direction. Enjoying it, believing in her path. Slowly opening her crimson eyes, gazing upon the hazel one. Her hands on her waist, frowning at her friend. Her red shirt, wearing a short grey pants.
"Do you plan to sleep there all day?"
This yawning young woman, a pleasant day. Differences between two, an energetic companion, the other desiring little effort. Her hard work, wanting to relax in her free time. This one before her, continuously going beyond. Venturing through the town, witnessing her brightness. Making use of her time, this of another day. Niceness in it, this side of her. Their friendship for a while, two growing closer. That maiden returning home more often, building a bit more into her life. Sitting up, pressing back against the land. Sighing from her, expecting this.
"Day off you know, well. I suppose you're right either way, so want to go to a diner?" faintly smiling.
Thinking on this, Elina’s shimmering expression. Spending time with one another, possibilities with each day. Strangeness at first, their developing bond. Sadness and joy, normalcy in this. Facing these challenges, occurrences of life. Lingering feelings, some unsettling ones in that girl. Shortness on the young woman's time, worrying about her. Rising from the ground, Elina gazing at the maiden. Her hand towards this hazel one, gesturing her head behind her. Motioning her own, gripping her friend. Two heading onward, eventually finding themselves in town. Stopping for a bit, a flower shop at their side. Two facing one another, this confusing Isa, wondering on the girl's trouble.
"What is wrong?" the maiden's hand on her waist.
"Don't you...ever get scared? Being out there, dealing with everything..." Her sullen expression, her hands to her chest.
Slightly lowering her head, constantly concerning with her friend. Her dangerous line of work, quivering at the possibilities. Thinking back, that distant girl on this day. Her wandering mind, sense in it. Someone worrying about the maiden, a natural occurrence. Those venturing out, their lives at risk. Spinning a roulette everyday, concerning those elsewhere. Never wishing for attachment, an issue in it. Meeting this one, unable to avoid the situation. Cherishing Elina, a reason to survive. Her belief within, someone pursuing it. Moving up to her, gripping the hands of the girl. Their visions on the other, that maiden's gentle smile.

"Those are the thoughts I have to do away with, otherwise, I can end up dead."
"Can you not find something safer to do...?" dissatisfaction from her.
"Sometimes, what someone loves to do can be the most dangerous thing." Her soft voice.
Disliking those words, worrying even more. Feeling her touch, a chance of it going away. Not wishing for this, appreciating their time together. These streaming lines, those flowing along in its endlessness. Relishing in days with each other, dreading in times apart. Each performing in their own way, following what is inside. Tormenting agony, these growing sentiments. Immensely increasing, that maiden understanding her. Looking down, brushing her knuckles. Carefully thinking, forming her words, speaking what is inside.
"If I did not do this, you might not be able to do what you love. If anything happens, I want to be able to rush in and keep you safe."
These conflicting feelings, her words bringing warmth, yet not settling her. Validity on her point, those serving in this way. Bringing enlightenment to others, many living at ease in this town. Efforts of her job, going far at times. Silencing her foes, arresting others. Some tales shaking her heart, gratefulness for her companion's safety. Releasing that innocent one, facing away from her. A hand at the back of her head, this difficult situation. One once keeping to herself, minimizing her contact. Devotion to her job, this barrier steadily coming down. That girl walking up to her side, looping her arm around her partner's own.
"I understand...but, be-careful..." Faintly smiling at the young woman.
"That I do promise." Returning a similar grin at her.
Each finding their path, believing in their way. Their unlikely meeting, two encountering underneath the light of the crimson moon. Intersecting lives, smallness at first. Their escalating relationship, their close bond. Cherishing each other, these new sentiments in their life. Simpleness together, wanting to maintain this in the presence of one another. Embracing in these feelings, traveling along its endlessness. Wanting safety for the maiden, her heart leading her forward. Admiring this, these unsettling emotions. Hoping for her wellness, this concerning the hazel one. Both heading onward, joy with the other. Two chatting away, having some laughs.
I cherished those times we spent together, back then...I truly did believe in my path. A fool I was, and once I found out, my devotion led to our separation. I will free you, and this will be but a nightmare. We will have those times again, you will be able to smile again...
