5- Closer Together


"Jamie?"

I groaned and peeled my eyes open to the most gorgeous sight in the world. Anne. Her black hair fell onto one shoulder as she wore my gray hoodie that fit her like a dress. Her eyes widened and she backed away a little.

"Good morning Jamie!"

'Say something back idiot!'

'Give her a good morning kiss!'

'Eww. Gross.'

I sat up straight and stretched my sore muscles letting out a small yawn. Anne stood up and went to the other side of the cave where all the cans of food were. She bent down slowly, exposing her backside to me. Don't worry, she was still wearing pajamas.

'Pervert.'

'Keep staring. Admire her beauty.'

My eyes shifted everywhere around the cave except Anne. She came and sat on my lap, handing me a can of peaches, kissing my cheek. I burned up.

"Alright, how are we going to open these?" Her angelic voice spoke.

I just shrugged my shoulders and leaned back on my arms.

"How about a rock?" I replied.

She snapped her fingers and rushed out of the cave leaving my lap to feel cold and empty.

"Anne? Anne!" I felt worried when she left on her own.

Anne walked back in with a large rock in one hand while the peaches were in the other. She sat cross-legged across from me and put the can onto the dirt floor.

'Watch and learn kid, watch and learn.'

Anne hit the top of the can with the rock, she pops it open after a few tries. She took the lid off and drank the juice that filled the entire thing. Some of it trickled down her chin.

I wiped it with the pad of my thumb, blinking slowly at her. Anne giggled a tiny bit at my actions before sliding her fingers into the can and takes out a slice of the yellow goodness. My tongue licked my thumb tasting the salty and sweet taste.

'Gross.'

'Shut up! it was cute!'

"Jamie! You listening?"

I averted back to reality. She handed me a piece, the slimy fruit sliding around my palm. I popped it into my mouth, chewing slowly for a better experience.

"Mm." I moaned as it went down my throat.

My stomach grumbled, urging for more. Anne handed me the entire can, licking the palm of her hand like a cat before wiping it on my sweatshirt.

"Here, I think I've eaten enough for now. You need it more than me."

My eyebrows furrowed deeply, guilt rushing into my body.

"A-are you sure?"

She hummed and pushed the can into my hands, kissing my nose in the process. When did she become so...touchy?

'Stop complaining!'

'Didn't you want this Jamie?'

'Shut up.'

It was true. I did not mind at all but I wanted it to be real. I didn't want all this 'love' to be fake and realize that in the future she was using me the entire time. Maybe I should ask? Yeah.

"Hey um, Anne?"

She perked up at the sound of her name, playing with a strand of her hair and licking her dry, cracked lips.

"Yes?"

"I-uh-um, I was, w-was wond-"

'Say it you, idiot!'

'She's getting bored of you!'

"Do you like me?"

She kept quiet for a moment and nodded her head quickly with a complete loss of words.

"Of course I like you! Why wouldn't I?"

"No, I mean, do you like like me, Anne do you...l-love me?"

She scoffed harshly, causing me to hold my breath.

"Of course I do. Why would you ask that?"

Because you didn't love me a few hours ago...I decided to keep quiet to prevent any other problems and arguments to occur.

"Let's head out and find someplace else. We can't stay out here for too long, it's getting too cold."

She's right.

'Yep,'

'Let's not freeze to death.'

'I agree.'

'Pfft, I don't!'

Anne nudged her head to the clear opening of the cave, skipping out into the cold. I chuckled a tiny bit at her childish ways and followed her like a lost puppy. The cold air bit into my skin causing goosebumps to rise on my arms and neck.

My teeth clicked together in a fast motion indicating my dislike of the temperature change. Okay, we need to find someplace warm quick before I freeze my balls off.

'What balls?'

Ugh. I can't ever be sarcastic around them.

"Jamie look!"

Anne tugged my hand as she pointed across from where we stood alone. I squinted my eyes and tilted my head.

"Um, what are we looking at?"

All I saw was trees and slight snowfall. The brown floor was soaking with the cold water that fell from heaven. Maybe this was a sign?

Anne dug her pointer finger into my cheek, shifting my head a tiny bit to the right. My mouth gaped open at the train passing us once again. It was the same one we got on when the Devil found us.

"We can take it again and get out of here! Maybe even make it back home!"

I immediately disagreed.

"We can't go back, they could be waiting there for all we know." My voice was stern.

Anne rubbed her pink nose, wiping off the fluids that were wanting to leave. Her brown eyes burned into my soul as they watered from the weather.

"We need to get on that train either way, without it we aren't going to make it to heaven."

No way I was going to miss that opportunity. I sprinted to the train breathing heavily as my body begged for me to stop. I didn't though.

The loud train blared through my ears, warning us that it was about to leave soon. I opened the large wooden door of one of the boxcars, sitting inside. I helped Anne get in before shutting one of the doors shut to prevent any breeze to come in.

"We made it! Geez, Jamie, you're so fast babe!"

'Woah! She just called you babe!'

'Damn she is falling hard.'

'Call her something back! Like Honey or Sweetie...'

Um no, not yet! I don't think I'm ready for name calling! Anne gasped loudly, squealing in a high-pitched tone. I cringed at the sound as it met my ears.

"Food!"

I turned my head behind me causing my eyes nearly popping out of my head.

Sacks is potatoes were stocked up on each other, maybe hundreds in each bag.

"Wow,"

My mouth was open wide in shock, Anne just giggled at my reaction. She sat up from the wooden flooring and tried to regain balance. My jaw tightened when Anne picked up a small potato getting ready to eat it raw.

I grabbed her hand before she could taste it.

"Don't eat it. That's gross."

Her lips made a straight slit. Anne pursed her lips and rested her knuckles at her hips, nodding her head upward quickly.

"It's free food! How can you miss that opportunity?"

'She's right man. Free food is totally worth it.'

'I would consider that stealing.'

'He took food from that poor family though!'

'Yeah, but they're dead.'

"Don't remind me," I mumbled.

"What? That the food is free? Okay..." The confusion in her voice was heard.

I squinted my eyes and stared out of the now moving train, seeing the blur of green and brown passing in a fast motion. My elbows rested on my knees a shiver running up my spine once in a while.

Anne sat with her legs dangling out of the boxcar eating the potato like an apple. A look of disgust soon plastered on my face.

I crawled to her then wrapped my arm around her, having her cover my bare chest. She leaned into my touch, grabbing a strong hold on my hand. Her fingers grazed the stab wound that was infected. Thanks, Steve.

"We need to clean this or it could get really dangerous."

The yellow foreskin around the puncture showed that it was already becoming...icky. I agreed on cleaning it...but how? I was a runaway and Anne was now missing. Surely, people would be worried and aware now.

"Do you know where this train is going?" I asked her. She must have more knowledge than me, or at least I assumed.

"Nope." She popped the 'p' for emphasis.

'Welp, we're screwed.'

'Might as well just give up now.'

There is no way in hell I'm giving up. Heaven is so close to my reach and I almost there, in a few days- latest- Anne and I will be with God and angels. We were going to be angels.

"Hopefully, far away from the devil though. I mean is he really smart enough to find us?"

She doubted his abilities, though I didn't mind. She didn't even know him but I did and I knew what the devil was capable of. He could do anything at all, he could kill or resurrect! I've seen it with my own eyes!

"You don't get it, Anne! H-He's worse than you think and you will come to see it soon!"

The half-eaten potato flew out of the boxcar when Anne tossed it. She rubbed her hand over my stomach until her fingers patted my cheek which was covered with slight facial hair.

'Touch her back!'

'Show her affection!'

It was exactly what I did when my hands held onto her waist and pushed her onto the ground lightly. I hovered over her and moved a strand of her hair out of her face, lingering a kiss on her forehead.

"You're beautiful," I whispered.

Anne wrapped her arms around my neck pulling me into a tight hug. I laid my head on her chest as she played with my chocolate brown hair.

"You're hot," She responded.

I snorted at her.

'Awe, that's so sweet!'

'What a wuss answer.'

'Well, F*ck.'

I chuckled a tiny bit at their reactions before replying to Anne while she showered me with affection.

"Stop...That's not true at all,"

"What!? Of course, it is! Have you seen yourself?!? Your bright blue eyes and soft brown hair. What about your sharp nose and pink lips? Oh and- and- your body! I can't forget about that! Those abs and muscles can't explain themselves,"

"That's so sweet of you bu-"

"I can't forget your soft skin, the nice tan you have. Though you're pretty pale right now because of the weather...I mean that doesn't matter to me,"

"Great but I-"

"Oh and the way you blush every time I do-"

"ANNE!" I finally cut her off.

She shut her mouth and bit both her top and bottom lip.

"I wanted to tell to thank you. For everything. It's been a rough couple months and I know this wasn't supposed to happen, I wasn't supposed to fall in love with someone, I wasn't supposed to risk your life."

"Jamie, I don't regret any of it. Is it about the rule still? I told you to forget about it." Anne rambled once again,

I rolled my eyes and pushed my finger to her flushed lips.

"Shh, now where were we? Oh yeah. I love your silky black hair and your bright smile. Those irresistible lips that I could kiss all day. I love your smooth toffee skin that slides nicely on my rough fingers. Oh, those dark brown eyes that held so much emotion. Anne, you are perfect and I could spend years telling you how beautiful you are,"

'My heart is getting faster.'

'Something's growing in your pants, Jamie.'

'Ugh, why are we so alone now? Jamie found someone.'

Anne's eyes began watering a tiny bit and she sniffed a tiny bit. She pecked my lips quickly and wiped her eyes with the sleeve of my clothing she was still wearing. In all honesty, I was so glad this happened or else I never would have met her.

"I'm glad also."

Crap! did I say that out loud?

"Uh, yeah you did." She added.

I groaned in embarrassment and felt my entire body burn inside out. I loved Anne and I couldn't wait for our adventure to heaven together.

Jamie Stock and Anne Bennett, angels of heaven. Huh, I like the sound of that.
