Cookies

Isaac was always one to pay attention to every minor detail. The kitchen cups misplaced somewhere in the library, the swing moving outside, the creeks of the staircase, the vague sound of the water running.

Every little detail comforted Isaac. Reminding him he was not alone anymore, he’s with someone now. Someone who loved him and looked after him.

“Isaac!” Your voice happily calls out to him as his office door opens. “Look what I made!” You walk up to him with a big smile plastered on your face. Placing the plate of cookies on his desk, you lean down crossing your arms on his desk, propping yourself up.

“Try them!” You requested Isaac. He looked at you with a soft smile, picking up a cookie and biting softly. Only to be met with the taste of nothing. Air. He looked down at the plate again confused, realising the plate was gone, and so were you.

Isaac sprung up from his desk, looking frantically around his office. Until his eyes glanced over at the pink orchids planted around your tombstone through the window. His body stifled, lungs tightened as choked tears escaped his eyes.

Flowers

Xanthus makes his way to you, holding a bouquet of peonies, with a beautiful pink ribbon tied around it.

“I had to go the shop as soon as they opened. Who knew peonies sell out so quick?,” he says sitting down beside you on the grass.

“You know I’ve always seen you in them. They’re very beautiful, I get why you like them. I’m thinking of planting them in our garden this summer. What do you think?” He asks.

“Do you like them? I’ve picked them out myself…I’ve even written the letter myself hoping you’d read it,” he says placing the bouquet down with a defeated sigh.

“Speak to me. I’m starting to forget what you sound like,” he pleads, his voice cracking as he speaks.

“Is it because of the flowers? Are they not good enough? I’ll change them for you, I’ll get you Jasmines, how about that? Or orchids? Tulips? Lillies? Anything you want just please…let me hear your voice one more time.”

His eyes began to swell as he turned to you, tears falling onto your tombstone.

“One more time…please.”

What I am

“No…no! Please!” You push away from Dontis’s embrace.

“The last thing I need is to fall in love with you. I can’t love you more than I already do! It hurts knowing that I can't have someone I truly love.”

Dontis looks at you with a soft expression. “You can have me sweetheart,” he says, holding your hand gently.

“No! No I can’t! You’re an incubus! You think I can have you?! I want to settle dontis. I want something that you can’t do,” your voice strains as tears rush from your eyes.

“I’m sorry…I’m sorry for what I am. I never meant to hurt you, hunter," Dontis speaks with a hurt look on his face.
