Colder Than Ice (COMPLETED)

Questions

Aprils pov

He sits down next to me and we pray to the moon goddess to bless our food.

After we are done, we each take a slice and eat in comfortable silence.

"Hey April? " He asks breaking the silence.

"Yeah" I answer looking at him to find that he's already looking at me.

His chocolate brown eyes stare into mine and I have to fight back the urge to run my hands through his hair and for that reason, I look away because it  is too tempting.

"Wanna play a game?" He says dazed.

"Sure." I say as I look up at the star filled night sky.

"Okay. What's your favourite colour?" He asks.

Wow! I was not expecting that but I guess we're starting with basics.

"Purple.. And yours?" I ask.

"Used to be blue." He answers.

"Typical ." I mutter under my breath. Wait, used to be?

"Used to be? What changed?" I ask.

"I met you ." He says offering no further explanation.

The air begins to seem tense and I don't want to make this awkward and so, I ask the next question:

"What's your favourite food?" I ask.

"Beef burger and fries" He answers in a heartbeat.

"I didn't see those in your collection of food. Why weren't they there?" I ask curiously.

"Technically it's my turn to ask the question but I'll just answer. Its because today is about you, I just want you to feel at home." He says sincerely.

My mate sure has a way with words! Damn! My heart..

"Thanks." I say.

"Do you have any siblings?" He asks.

"No."

"Then what about Dylan Lane?" He asks with a low voice.

"Its complicated." I say with a sigh.

I can't make him a part of my mess, he's too pure to know or see the darkness within me.

Its always the sibling question first then comes the parent question and I can't for the life of me allow him to ask me that question. That would trigger too many memories and I'm not ready to share that with him... Yet.

Therefore, I ask him the question I've been dying to ask since this conversation began :

"When you found me, did I have a backpack?"

"Yes." He answers.

"Where is it?" I ask.

"My sister has it and has planned on giving it to you herself."

"Okay thanks." I fake a yawn because now that I got what I wanted, I can go sleep.

"You look sleepy . I'll escort to your room." He says.

When we reach my room, I give him a short hug and mumble a quick goodnight as I get into bed.

I don't hear a reply because the darkness covers me like a blanket...
