give me hope in the darkness
so that I will see the light The silence between when I asked Rhoa to stay and when he finally spoke seemed like it stretched on forever. There was a little bit of optimism because he hadn't pushed me away. I felt his neck over my own, I could hear his breathing, but waiting for him to speak again had me nervous. There were a thousand things running through my head, a million different scenarios ranging from him staying with me to him laughing bitterly and leaving. I didn't know what I would do if he hugged me then said goodbye and left. There was no one in the Falls that I could talk to about such a personal matter. I not only wanted Rhoa to stay with me, I needed him to stay. "Please." I whispered against his neck and in the process I almost missed his always. I breathed a sigh of relief and I could feel tears stinging my eyes. I think part of me expected him to leave. I expected him to do to me the same thing my father had done to my mother and I was so relieved and happy that he hadn't I couldn't find my voice for a few seconds. I could only breathe and exist... "I'll stay as long as you like." "Always." I finally whispered. "I want you to stay always." I realized that I would be taking him away from his family in the Throat, which was the precise reason I had come back to the Falls-- to be closer to my family but love has a funny way of making you do things you wouldn't normally do. And it has a funny way of sneaking up on you and then pouncing that leaves your head spinning and your heart racing. It doesn't make sense and it doesn't need to... "... I think I love you." "." |
