Dead Love (chapter 6) Chapter 6 I chewed my chips with very little interest. My mum had gone to the chippy while I was unpacking for her and bought fish and chips for dinner. The fish was undercooked and the chips tasted of dry cardboard. My mum sat opposite me on the large dining table. We normally ate quietly since I had nothing to say to that horrible woman. "How was the unpacking?" She said suddenly. Was she really talking to me? Wow. "Fine," I replied with as little enthusiasm as possible. She looked up at me and didn't even try a smile this time. I felt really uncomfortable under her stare. "I'm going to eat upstairs," I said and with that I took my plate and ran upstairs. I didn't stop until my room was locked. I was going to pay for tht later I just knew it. "Are you alright my lady?" Kane said anxiously. He had such a look of fear on his face that I couldn't help but laugh. I burst into uncontrollable laughter and he looked annoyed. "Oh my gosh your face!" I said still chuckling. He smiled slightly at first and then started laughing himself. It was deep and beautiful. Pretty soon we were both laughing so hard we couldn't breathe. Finally after an eon we started to calm down. I surprised to find myself and him on the floor. "Was I that funny? Even if it wasn't I needed that!" He said still chuckling slightly. I nodded grinning widely. "Yeah you were! You looked like you'd just seen a-" I stopped. Was I really about to say ghost? I couldn't believe myself. I saw Kane had stopped laughing. "A shark," I said finishing my sentence. What a lame come back. He gave me a meek smile and went back to his ledge. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to-" I started feeling really bad. I didn't want our laughter to end like that. "It's ok, my lady," he said quietly. Why was I so stupid? Ugh I should just go and die in a hole somewhere. "No I really am sorry, I didn't mean to revive any bad memories," I said once again sitting down on the ledge next to him. Like before I put one hand on his icy shoulder. I felt my hand dropping to -50 degrees Celsius but I didn't care. I hated upsetting him. "Miss Myers, may I ask you yet another question," he said looking into my eyes. "Go ahead, Kane," I said and I edged a bit closer to him on the window ledge, until we only had a little gap between us. Our shoulders touching. "We only met this morning," he began, "Yet I feel like we're really...close?" He said waiting for my approval. "Yeah, me too," I said. I put my hand down and put it near his his. Not touching but just next to it. "Why is that though? We don't even know much about each other yet, when you went downstairs I wished you'd come back up," he said. I then felt his icy pinky finger entwine with mine. We weren't holding hands but it was close enough for me. I looked up at him and his green eyes. They looked back at me swimming with warmth and I dare say...love. We stayed with our eyes locked and fingers entwined. I didn't want the moment to end. 1 day ago I wouldn't have even imagined that I would start falling for a ghost. In fact 1 day ago I didn't even believe in love. But, here I was now, gazing into the eyes of the most beautiful boy ever. He was breathtaking. I couldn't seem to let go. Kane's POV (point of view!) I ventured out further than I had imagined to go. I showed her my affection. I entwined my little finger with hers and surprisingly she didn't let go. I looked at her face. It was so much like Charlotte's but it wasn't hers. It was me falling in love again. He chocolate brown eyes gazed up at me, softly. Her brown hair fell neatly around her shoulders to frame her face. She was so much like Charlotte, but like I said, not Charlotte. How could I suddenly be doing this to a girl that I had only just met. Was it, love at first sight? But, that was just in Rose's fairy tales though, not in real #life. Or was it? Hiya!! I really enjoyed writing that bit and I hope you enjoyed reading it. Did you like that little perspective change? Hehe please like and comment if you did!! But for now just enjoy chapter 6 and await chapter 7 star xxx
