❛  what could be as lonely as love? what could ever hurt this much?

this is for kiera because i said so

“So, tell me, are bloodsucking undead parasites your thing, or am I just the exception? You got a fetish for fangs?” She’s teasing, mostly, but it’s fun to get a blush going on the young witch’s cheeks. Maven’s not exactly sure what this ground is that they’re on right now, but despite her attempts to push her away, Kiera hasn’t run off screaming yet. And maybe she kissed her for it. Maybe it was more than once. But they haven’t actually talked about it, and she’s not sure she’s ready to have that type of conversation, so instead Maven fills the air between them with a different chatter. “You wanna hear something really stupid? I used to think vampires were hot. I had a Twilight phase, it’s true. Go ahead, judge away.” She was, what... thirteen years old when the first one came out? Fourteen? Right in the peak of her embarrassing early teendom. A vulnerable youth to the sexy vampire craze that hit the media. 

“I had to hide the books from my mom. She hated all that stuff, said it was a ‘bad influence’. Guess it was because she knew it was real, and people like that were actually out there. Didn’t want me fantasizing about runnin’ away with one and my neck becoming a To-Go menu item for some bloodsucker.” Yet for someone who didn’t like vampires or werewolves so much, she would hardly tell Maven anything about them, not even in warning. If it didn’t have to do with witches and their particular brand of magic, her mom simply didn’t want to discuss it. “Jokes on her. If only she could see me now,” the words are in jest, but her tone falls flat even as she’s speaking. Maven is of no illusions of the fact that her mother would hate to see her like this. It’s probably for the best, otherwise she might’ve dropped dead from shock and horror. No, this new monstrosity is hers alone, although if she flew all the way back to New York to visit the cemetery, she might’ve found her mother’s entire tombstone rolled over. “For the record? Team Edward, one hundred percent. Jacob can kick rocks.” She tries to steer the conversation back towards something funny, before Kiera can pick up the change in her mood. Just another conversation she doesn’t want to have right now.

Are you really gonna talk about timing in times like these? And let all your damage, damage me And carry your baggage up my street And make me your future history? It's time, you've come a long way Open the blinds, let me see your face You wouldn't be the first renegade to need somebody

I can feel your heart hanging in the air I'm counting every step as you climb the stairs It's buried in your bones, I see it in your closed eyes Turning in, this is harder than we know We hold it in the most when we're wearing thin

Coming like a hurricane, I take it in real slow The world is spinning like a weathervane Fragile and composed Though I am breaking down again I am aching now to let you in

Cold sheets. Oh, where's my love? I am searching high, I'm searching low in the night

Does she know that we bleed the same? Don't wanna cry but I break that way

Did she run away? Did she run away? I don't know If she ran away If she ran away, come back home Just come home
