simon walked into the stables. he wore a riding helmet which was too large for him, but he didn't care. he had fashioned it up with flowers, as he found it looked more presentable. he was greeted by an older kalon, with a small beard, and large blue eyes. "why, hello there, simon!" he shook the small boys hand. "i'll be your coach." simon smiled, and high-fived the man. the man looked a little puzzled at first, but didn't show it. "i picked out the perfect horse for you." the kalon told simon, walking with him to the very last stall. simon tried to peek under the door, but the crack was far too small. the kalon turned a key, and opened the stall to reveal a white horse. it was large compared to him. he got goosebumps while brushing the gentle giant. "his name is meadow. i thought he would suite you perfectly." he explained to simon. simon nodded eagerly. "when can i ride it?" he jumped, excited. coach grabbed simon a saddle, and suited him up nicely. he fastened the saddle onto meadow, attached the straps, and turned to simon. "shall we head over to the riding area?" he asked. simon grinned, and nodded. they walked onto a large plain, with grass as far as the eye can see. coach helped simon onto the horse, and smiled as the small kit shook excitedly. "it's okay, i'll be here." he promised, holding the horse. meadow started walking slowly, and simon's hair stood up as the strange movement made his body shake. the two took circles together around the field, and simon started to get the hang off everything. "i'm ready to do it alone." he told his coach, looking at him seriously. his coach just smiled, and nodded. coach had a small gleam in his eye, as if he was planning something as he let go of the horse. simon held onto the straps tightly, confident. the first quarter was completely straight, and he felt confident. although, his confidence wasn't going to help him get past a large hole. a hold three times as big as him was laying in front of him, and he panicked. he forgot how to turn, and the horse started getting nervous as well. to say the least, simon ended up in the pit. the coach approached him, and helped him out. "i can't do it! i'm such an idiot." simon cried. coach frowned. "simon, that was only your first time. you'll get the hang of it. there's still time to try again."

xxxxxthe flames

xxxxxit was late in the night when it happened.
xxxxxsitting at the kitchen counter, two ten-year-olds huddled over a poster board. the light one, pollux, was scribbling down words on a piece of lined paper next to their project; and the dark one, castor was gluing something to it. they chatted idly, talking about school, friends, life, and things that only twins would understand.
xxxxxtheir young mother, energetic yet worn out, walked into the kitchen. "doing your homework?" pollux nodded, while castor was too absorbed to even look up. "now, don't stay up too late, guys," she said, patting each one on the head. "you'll regret it in the morning!'
xxxxx"we won't, mom! we've only got a little more to do!" pollux replied. he held up his work. "see? it's coming along really good! cas is making it really pretty, and i'm doing the writing!"
xxxxxcastor frowned. "i'm not making it pretty! i'm making it professional." she elbowed her brother, who laughed and tried elbowing her back. "but, mom! we'll be in bed before ten. i promise. maybe he doesn't, but i do." she giggled.
xxxxxthe older kalon laughed, too. "okay, i trust you." the kalon made her way upstairs before calling down, "goodnight, sweethearts! i love you!"

xxxxx---

xxxxxcastor awoke to the smell of smoke.
she didn't know what had triggered her to get up, but when she noticed the flames licking their school papers, spreading across the ground and covering their living room, she screamed.
xxxxxpollux stirred, his head still resting in his arms on the counter. "urgh... cas... what time is it? did we miss the bus?"
xxxxxshe grabbed him by the hand, whipping him out of his chair. "cas? what's --?" pollux turned even paler than he already was. "mom? where's mom?!" he broke free of her grip, darting towards the stairs. he skidded to a halt and ran back when his path was blocked by a barrage of flames. "mom?! are you still up there?!" he was ready to run into the fire, and cas had to grab him, keeping him from meeting his own demise. "wh-what if she's up there?" he yelled again, voice cracking "mom?!"
xxxxxthe front and back door were both cut off, as well as all of the windows except for the small kitchen one. in the frenzy, neither child thought of breaking it; they were too young and too scared.
xxxxxthere was nowhere to run, nowhere to go.
xxxxxcastor broke down, trying to hide from the inescapable, collapsing next to her brother. pollux was hunched over beside her, holding on to her as if it alone would save them, still sobbing. the fire was getting bigger, and there wasn't any way out. it was hopeless.
xxxxxthe last thing pollux heard was shouting and the sound of sirens before his vision turned to black.

--

xxxxxthe newspapers said that two children were rescued from the burning house. however, the young, single mother of two was dead.
xxxxxthe twins were alone... but not for long.

xxxxxchange
xxxxxdove wasn't really family, but, since there wasn't any family to go to, she was a happy alternative. not only that, but she was a constant babysitter and a friend. the twins looked up to her.
xxxxxit didn't make the transition to living with her any easier, though.
xxxxxfor months, awkwardness lingered between them. castor was constantly angry, and pollux wrote in his journal more than actually talking. dove tried to be supportive -- but she had no experience. it was hard for everyone.
xxxxxthings don't always stay bleak; and, eventually, things changed. the twins grew fond of dove, and they became as close to a family as they could be. pollux saw dove as an older sister, and castor regarded her as a good friend. they loved each other, even if things weren't perfect. but...
xxxxxthere was still emptiness.

xxxxxtwo years later

xxxxxone saturday morning, dove brought the kids out for a picnic. pollux's eyes lit up, while castor looked like she couldn't care less.
xxxxx"you know, your mom and i used to skip school and come here." dove laughed. "we'd make crowns from the flowers. hers were always amazing... and mine were terrible." castor and pollux both giggled at this. "well, you two can go play for now! i'll call you over for lunch, okay?"
xxxxxpollux nodded, and castor said, "mm-hmm. we'll keep ourselves busy."
xxxxxsoon enough, castor and pollux were both worn out. perhaps they were too old for playing childish games, but when they were together, they didn't have to act mature. now, they rested in the grass, chatting about who-knows-what.
xxxxx"cas... do you think mom is watching us?"
xxxxxcastor blushed. "what?"
xxxxxpollux sighed. "i mean... y'know... she used to come here. we're in her meadow." he looked up to the sky. "do you think she hates us? for killing her?"
xxxxx"hey! w-we didn't kill her! it was an accident," replied the black kalon.
xxxxx"but we should've done something! we... we should've..."
xxxxx"guys, time for lunch!"
xxxxxcastor sat up. "coming, dove!" she turned back to pollux and lowered her voice. "let's talk about it. with dove." they both knew they'd been pushing it off for too long.

xxxxx---

xxxxxdove shook her head. "i didn't know you felt that way, sweetheart."
xxxxxpollux was still sniffling. he'd cried his eyes out as he told dove of his guilt. "i-i... i'm s-sorry..."
xxxxx"don't be sorry! i know... sometimes, i wish i'd done more." she sighed. "it's hard to talk about, but i'm glad you brought this up."
xxxxxsuddenly, she felt pollux clinging onto her side. dove smiled, and wrapped her arms around him. castor snuck over and joined in, too. "it's hard, but i love you two."
xxxxxcastor straightened herself back out. "thanks for everything, dove. you're the best! but, um, can i ask one thing?"
xxxxx"sure, dear."
xxxxx"what... wh-what do you think mom would've wanted?"
xxxxx"hmm," dove replied, "for us to make flower crowns."
xxxxxthe three of them spent their afternoon picking flowers, making crowns, and remembering the love of a lost one.

the diary
xxxxxpollux started writing in a diary after the fire as a way to calm himself down and collect his thoughts. (it's pretty embarrassing. he'd never admit it.) castor always bugs him to let her see it, but he refuses. even after all these years, he stills writes daily.

xxxxxfebruary 2nd
xxxxxtoday was pretty interesting... in english class, cas was shotting spitballs around the room. she gets bored in class all the time! she says that the "content isn't up to her level". (she doesn't have to be so uppity.) anyways, the teacher noticed things, and threatened to give the whole class detention if the person doing it didn't fess up. cas looked really nervous, so I took the blame. everyone was shocked, since i'm usually good at behaving! even though it wasn't me, i don't mind taking the blame. detention can't be too awful, right? i just hope that cas learns her lesson.

xxxxxfebruary 3rd
xxxxxcas didn't learn her lesson! i'm so mad!
xxxxxso, today, i stayed after class during recess to finish up my social studies quiz (i'm pretty sure i did a good job). when i walked out of the classroom and out to recess, cas was beating some eighth grader up! it was awful! the teachers were yelling at her to get off him, and it was crazy. turns out she earned her own detention... on the same day as me! this friday! that's only two days from now... i'm pretty nervous. at least we'll be together.
xxxxxwhen we got home, dove was upset. she was almost in tears! she felt a little better when cas explained, though. the boy she was beating up was making fun of me with his buddies. i didn't know that people think i'm dork...
xxxxxanyways, dove said that cas was rash for doing something like that, but she appreciated that she'd stick up for me. i thanked her, too, but i tried to get her out of detention, and she just ended up in it anyways! i hope that this doesn't become a thing. that wouldn't be good.

xxxxxfebruary 6th
xxxxxah, i forgot to write yesterday! i was really busy with homework, and i guess i forgot. oops!
detention wasn't as bad as i expected. i still felt really guilty, and i might've cried... okay, i cried. but it was just me, cas, and another boy. we just filled out a sheet about our misbehaviors, and sat in a classroom for an hour. i asked if i could work on homework, and the teacher told me no. i guess i was acting out of line.
xxxxxdove asked us if we learned our lesson while we were driving home. i told her about how i was just covering for castor, and she freaked out! even though i didn't really mind, she still told cas that it was "irresponsible". dove told me to keep cas out of trouble, too. i guess i'll try to... but i can't help but being the accomplice sometimes!
