The Inner Struggle

No expectations, Only realizations.... After a week of anticipation, Friday night.
Maia stepped into the club. October 31-- Halloween. Wings and horns, fake blood and twisted dreams.
Somewhere on the dance floor (right about now, it's time time time time....) amidst the glitter, the strobe lights, Adam watched her work her way to the front. It had been weeks....months?...since thier first meeting and tonite was different. Tonite his body tingled, pupils wide, jaw clenched....White Dolphin.
At the bar, Maia ordered a shot of spiced rum with a strawberry daquari chaser. She wasted no time, beeline to the dance floor daquari in hand. (creole lady marmalade....)
Adam found her and spun her around. She was caught completely off gaurd. His eyes held hers for a split second that seemed like hours. His eyes....almost blue, almost green, almost something in between, bursting electricity.
He pulled her close to him. She didn't miss a beat. She came tonite to dance and that is exactly what she intended to do. She felt her pulse speed up, breath quickened, she pushed him away refusing to admit to herself that he had this effect on her.
Weaving through the crowd, bouncing from partner to partner, she found herself on the stage. (deep inside.....) From this view, she could see everything that was happening but her only awareness was a pair of eyes from the back of the room. Almost blue, almost green, bursting electricty...burning through her.
She stumbled, caught herself. Pushing though the crowd...the masked, painted, unfamilliar crowd she found the ladies room. Bracing herself against the sink, she looked in the mirror and caught her breath. Her cheeks were flushed, her hair was hot on her neck. She splashed some cold water on her burning cheeks and closed her eyes. (mmm...mmmm...mmm...mmmmm) An image flashed behind her eyelids not letting her escape. Almost blue, almost green, almost something in between.
He consumed her and the more she resisted, the more the struggled, she couldn't fight him. His static surrounded her, she was rendered defenseless. He gave her goosebumps despite the heat, despite the beads of sweat on her face.
Composed and filled with resolve, she pushed the door open, grabbed her coat and walked into the night. She walked slow... taking her eyes off the stars hanging in the sky only long enough to cross the street.
The memory of his body pressed up against hers made her feel....out of control. She wanted him, she longed for him. He made her body tingle, pupils dialate, jaw clench. Those eyes, almost blue, almost green almost something in between; they made her pulse pound. It was so hard, so hard, so hard not to submit, not to lose control, not to lose herself in his eyes. In his unrelenting electricity. It took everything that she had to walk away...but she did it.
Only there was a suprise for her on the doorstep when she got home. Body tingles, pupils dialated, jaw clenched, Adam had seen her leave the club and beat her home. He had taken a short cut through the woods and had been awaiting her arrival. He couldn't let her get away from him. He refused to let her walk away so easily. He needed her, he wanted her. He couldn't get her out of his head. Thier first meeting, thier last meeting, she touched his heart, his soul so deep. He felt like they had come from the same place so many eons ago.
Maia turned the corner saw him-- sitting, waiting. Her heart skipped a beat. She was aprehensive...yet releived. She didn't even say a word. She already knew that he was waiting for her before she saw him.
She sat down beside him and handed him a bottle of water.
He gratefully accepted....
She closed her eyes.
Write her off, Call her naive Just like her mom Full of deciet
Wave of crimson Hide my secrets in Words and boxes Metaphorical locks Tickling curiosity Growing inside of me Fighting for truth In an altered reality
Rock me, shock me Thrill me, fill me With your undefined electicity...
She opened her eyes and he was gone. Just gone. There was nothing left, but a note.
She picked it up and went inside. It said:
M,
I wanted to love you like I did so long ago.
A.
She wanted to cry but she couldn't. She felt weak. Alone. One tear, just one...rolled down her face and fell on the note.
She went to bed, but not before she wrote an entry in her journal. Before she closed her eyes, she turned off the light and looked at the picture she kept on her nightstand. A picture of the one she she shared her bed with, her life with. He wasn't coming home for a long, long time.

You've put your passionate edge on a familiar lamentation to which many of us can relate. Nice dualism. Nice work!

Reminds me of seeing that special ex again. You want to have a bit of what you used to have, just for a while. But it doesn't make it easier. Ahhh, young love! (insert bitter irony)

It's good. I miss posts like this.
In the last thread you asked, do you tell? is that selfish? etc.
I think that it depends on the decision you ultimately make. To leave a mistake behind or to make a mistake by leaving something behind, unfinished.
I guess we will just have to see how the story pans out.

maybe the CIA couldn't arrest Derrick because of the lack of evidence. In my opinion they should've taken a closer look inside the sock drawer...no telling what they could've found in there.
-------------------- And then at night I would wonder: Had I been wasting all my time enjoying the sweet taste of Tennasse bourbon, brownest of the brown liquors? Where was my girlfriend? Where was my car? Who's bed was I lying on? Which state was I in? And I got that sad feeling to make me cry...

Good stuff. You should write more things, Bom.
