Chapter 10

Ch. 10. The pyre of truth. After this chapter, there will be a hiatus, I have a lot of writing to catch up on! I don’t know when it will be ready, but it won't be months until the next chapter is complete, that I know for sure. In the meantime, you can re-read the hundreds of pages already written! ;)

“You don’t think you’re weak just because you gotta sleep at night, right?” Her tone was playful and gentle, Runa shook her head slowly against her upper chest. The soft friction from their skins meeting gave her spine shivers. She grinned and moved slowly up, and pressed her face against her neck. The stress vanished like smoke in the wind, and that mellow warmth rose in its stead. Trembling her spine and belly, amidst a heartbeat slowly raising in tempo, bliss slowly brewed inside her. “Of course not, and your brain needs rest too. It’s just an organ, a part of your body, and it’s tired now, so try to let it go.” Sofie continued so sweetly, before lowering one of her hands down her back. She pulled up the tanktop and put her hand inside, and started stroking her bare back up and down. The remaining hand massaged her nape firmly, it felt so good she groaned again. She made an effort to not think, to let images and words flow before fading. Focusing instead on the soothing motions against her body. The muscles in her neck and shoulders finally relaxed above her, and she sighed deeply. “There we go.”

Chapter 9

Ch. 9. To the bone

But then she paused, bit her lower lip and looked to the side. Seemed to consider something before meeting her eyes again. She smiled nervously and started talking: “Can I see you too? I wanna take in how beautiful you are.” A pain rose within her, quickly she sat up and paused, hugged her close while looking to the side. “But you don’t have to.” Sofie added quickly and stroked her back hurriedly. Continued with a tone sprinkled with panic: “We can turn off the lights, there’s no rush.” Runa closed her eyes in her embrace, and stroked her face against the skin of her neck. The obsidian burrowed straight up her mind, showed her those blue eyes tightening in a tense expression, of disappointment and disgust, Sofie would coil away from her. But how likely was this fabricated scenario? Would sweet Sofie ever gaze at her that way? If not, she felt tempted to find out to get it over with. How much did she want it?

Chapter 8

Ch.8. The weight of vapor

It was so bright at first, dazzling her while Runa was still over her. But she moved back and gripped the covers, pressed it up to her collarbones from underneath. Sofie turned her body to the side, and moved her left arm out of the duvet. Helped her fold it in front of herself, her eyes were gentle as she seemed to appreciate the gesture. Still her face was so firm in its softness, her deeply brown irises weren’t glossy with tears. Rather they gleamed with fondness. Long black lashes framed her big eyes, Sofie moved her hand against her brown cheek and stroked it. Gazed first at her slim nose, before looking down at her dark lips. Sharp in the cupid’s bow, though still slim. Her bottom lip was bigger, but not by much, and softly curved. When she smiled her upper lip stretched and thickened, giving her stomach fluttering warmth. She looked up at her warm eyes again, and watched carefully for that hint of amber looking back at her. She moved her hand up and stroked some of her curly short hair away from her ear, and tugged it behind it.

Chapter 7

Ch.7. Flames of blue. "Sofie paused below the naked oaktree, looked up at its shivering branches when wind blew through it. Her blue eyes gazed upwards, light reflected so vividly in them. Her pale lashes faced up, thick and long. She didn’t wear her white hat now either, so her long wavy blonde hair got caught in the wind yet again. Her strands blasted first over her soft fair face, before clutches of them danced in the air. She grinned excitedly showing off her white straight teeth, rolled in her giggles so excitedly. She gripped her hair with her slim pale hands, looked down and over at Runa. This whole time she had observed her closely in wonder, felt her knees and spine tremble by the sight of her. "

Chapter 6

Ch. 6. Of fire and sky

Somehow the sky opened in her direction. Sunrays hit her brown eyes directly, and made her irises glow like fire. Her expression was so caring still, it lit up with focus. She blinked, her dark lashes flipped down and up. A hard bolt shot up her spine. She sighed deeply with a jittery breath, her pulse was so high. Hairs raised on her forearms, she grinned near her lips. The countless romance books she had read came to mind, deep emotional serenades flickered in her memory. Uttered inside pages with such beautiful sentences of longing, it echoed on her tongue. Whilst remembering she spoke softly, losing herself in the moment: “I see the fire in your eyes, please let me feel the warmth of your flame.” Runa froze and grinned with wide eyes, sighed hard against her. “Jesus fucking christ.” She said surprised and giggled, Sofie nodded and chuckled, proud by the intensity of her serenade. “I can do it too.” She said back softly. Their lips met hard, Runa murmured between a movement: “Yes I can tell.”

Chapter 5

Ch. 5. The ocean’s shimmer

The door beside the girls sprung open, hit the wall hard and made a loud dunk. Runa jumped and looked up at it. Sofie stood in the opening, out of breath with her big blue eyes wide open. Her large black hooded jacket had opened, and sunken down on one of her shoulders. It revealed a blue tanktop strap, and her bare shoulder underneath. Her hair was somewhat messy, wide and wavy depicting echoes of movement. Its golden hues amongst pale blonde strands could've been the sun shining behind her, if she squinted when looking at her. But she didn’t, her eyes were wide in dulled awe. Staring up at the top of the stone stairs, clad in black iron railing. The girls on the bench gazed at her in surprise as well, a moment in time she already knew, she’d never ever forget.

Chapter 4

Ch.4. Dawn of ember Large boulders dotted the rustling grass and bushes. Even the heathers though still with a few lingering blueberries had darkened to deep reds and orange colors. She followed the path though it split up into three directions. Marion pointed the way, towards the path in the middle. The birches were bare, though right ahead she saw one with almost all its leaves. Bright orange and yellow round leaves dotted its branches as if a ray of hope for the others. Soon enough it would wither too, and slumber for the winter. But just now, in this moment Runa observed it thoroughly in careful bliss.

Chapter 3. Burning mist.  In the warm summer sun golden hair had swayed in the wind, while bright blue irises had shimmered with tears. Staring back at her that blue appeared, now swallowed by shadows shimmering in weak warm light. Her round eyes were framed by pale lashes and brows. A soft nose below them, small and gentle. Her lips were full with delicate shapes, framed by a chin and jaw perfectly soft, though still defined enough to look elegant. Slowly she paused and looked at her, with a slim pale hand pressing her blonde bangs to the side. Even with the hood on her pale face she was still immaculate. That look grazed her presence yet again, of wonder and tenderness. Her spine beamed while her stomach tightened in her nervousness, there she was again. The girl she was about to forget, from one moment to the next, suddenly there she sat in all her beautiful glory. Runa in her impulsivity started speaking, the words simply fell out her mouth: “I remember you.”

Chapter 2 is up

Read it HERE You better run, you better run You better not wait too long You better run, you better run You better run for you have a heart

She stood up from the chair by her desk, started swinging her body to the rhythm. Though not much of a dancer, that didn’t matter here. She had her eyes closed, and swung her arms around herself, as if she was a wave swinging back and forth. She sang weakly along with it, though she wasn’t much of a singer either. Let herself forget, soothed by the instruments. She soared with the seagull, flapping her wings. Swung her hips along with the beat, moved her wrists along with the melody. For just a few minutes, she had pretended to be at peace. For just a little while, she found her place in the sky.

Chapter 0 - Prologue and chapter 1.

Something happened to Sofie, and she changed for the worse. In the aftermath she hides herself away frantically, so nobody can even look at her. She knows even her own family can’t face her. All but one joy remains, along with terror something else opened that late summer day. And she can’t unsee the girl with eyes of fire.

Runa hates herself, and she knows why. From the mists of her childhood, she has always known she’s bad. Apart from her foster parents, nobody has ever treated her like she’s worth anything. That is until that girl from the late summer’s day actually speaks to her. Still her eyes glimmered blue like the heavens, it’s hard to doubt her enthusiasm when she’s staring straight at it.

From deep into the depths, through raging ocean the comet of fire emerges in the night sky. While in the cold, it’s easy to reach for the warmth, even from a distance. Finally the comet slowly sinks down to greet the surface. A being evolving in terror and pain emerges to feel it’s warmth. When heat and cold collide, they evaporate together. Changes form into something new, exploding into divine light. The world around them might still be swallowed by shadows, but together they can light the way.

Follow young love as it blossoms, in Norway late 2005. Observe them untangle themselves, to tie up together. Witness them finally understanding the world around them, to face what happened, and move past it together.
