The Town ~Open and Accepting~

[~Coddie~]

Jordan grabbed her hand, he led her through a maze of hallways to a small elevator. "Go..." he whispered before leaning close and kissing her.

[mishka.]

Amika let him kiss her, but she stood frozen. His simple word pained her. "You're not coming..." She spoke it less like a question. Her fear of losing Jordan had outweighed the fear and realization of the small elevator she was just shoved in.

[~Coddie~]

Jordan sighed, he closed his eyes and shook his head. "I'm a bad person..." He said quietly, "I don't deserve to be free..."

[mishka.]

"Jordan... What are you talking about? What did you do?" Amika felt like a she was about to rip to shreds. She wanted to cry, scream, shout out. But couldn't move. She wanted to hug Jordan and keep him close forever, but didn't know how. She was at a loss, didn't know what to do.

[~Coddie~]

Jordan looked up, he saw a swarm if creatures running at them from the end of the long hallway. "You deserve better guys than me..." He whispered, "I can't protect you Amika..." Tears streamed down his cheeks. "I love you with all my heart... But I'm the reason you were stuck in that town, you are a good person and deserved more than to suffer... So I'll stay, because I'm the one who deserves to suffer..."

[mishka.]

Amika shook her head and pulled Jordan in, wrapping her arms around his neck, kissing him on the lips. She held on to him tightly. None of her questions had been answered, but none seemed to matter anymore. She ignored the shrieks at the end of the hall. She opened her eyes and leaned her forehead against his. She finally found words. "I want you,"

[~Coddie~]

Jordan looked over at the end of the hall, he pulled her into the elevator and pressed the button and watching as the doors closed. He looked back into her eyes before leaning close and kissing her.

[mishka.]

Amika felt the fear crawling back, but it slowly faded as Jordan came in with her. She wrapped her arms around him and didn't let go.

[~Coddie~]

Jordan held her close, "I love you Amika..." He whispered, "I promise I won't leave you..."

[mishka.]

Amika nodded her head, making sure he'd remember to keep that promise. "I love you too..." She said softly.
