Chapter 2
Aura's P.O.V
After school I started to walk home I went in the forest next to the train tracks and get my foldable bow out of my backpack and I get my arrows I grabbed from my backpack as well. I take aim at a tree and I pull back to where the arrow almost touches my lips and I release. Bullseye... i know what your wondering...where the bow and arrows come from. I bought them with my money I got from working in the summer 3 years ago. Yeah I do archery it's fun at least to me, no one knows about it. I continue to shoot arrows at the trees until sunset then I pulled my arrows out of the trees and pack them up into my backpack along with my foldable bow. I sigh and walk in the forest along the train tracks to get home. I heard the trains coming along the tracks and I smile and ran along side it. The engineer and I were pretty close he saw me and waved I gave him a genuine smile. I saw someone on the tracks not moving.
I tried to yell to get him off the tracks and he just ignored me. I tried to get the engineer to stop but even if he pulled the emergency breaks it would be a while before it will stop. Crap. I run faster. And manged to tackle him off the tracks. The train sped past us blaring as if the train was angry about him being on the tracks. I try and catch my breath.
"What the heck were u thinking!" I shouted slightly. "You could've been killed."
"I wanted it too." He says angrily. "Why did you stop me?"
"Because no one deserves to die at least not for your reason." I sigh and put my hand on his sholder. I finally saw his face. He looks at me with tears in his eyes.
"Lucas?"
"Aura..." He sobs in my neck I hug him. "I can't do it anymore." I look at him confused.
"I'm sorry... I'm so sorry.... I'm sorry." He kept repeating his voice cracks.
"It's okay..." I mumbled into his ear.
"No its not Aura I hurt you. I hate myself I always have ever since-" He just stops mid sentence.
"Lucas it's okay. I know how it feels." I say soothingly.
"Thank you Aura, thank you." He sighs contently.
