"I will disclose everything Evelyn. I am sorry, I just missed you too much. Nothing is over between us Evelyn, trust me please"
"It's hard Elliot, I genuinely don't want to speak about these 2 months"
She strokes his jawline tenderly cupping his face with her left palm, tears flowing down her cheeks slowly shifting beside him. Elliot glances at her chocolate eyes glistening with pain and adoration as he leans forward slowly brushing his lips near her cheeks making the latter go stiff and tighten the grip on his shoulder
"Can I?"
Evelyn nods almost unable to holdback any emotion in her. Meeting the person for whom you have been waiting since 2 whole months, stirred lot of sentiments inside her heart. It's hurting, her mind is in denial but his touch is so warm cooling down all her worries and shutting her body completely. Delicate sensation of his lips moving across her cheek, slender fingers brushing her hair, warm eyes staring into her with deep desire is throwing the little bit of control in her
He barely touches his lips still hesitating with undying love bubbling up inside his body. Evelyn closes the gap capturing his thin lips in a reconcile kiss. It feels right, just right to forget everything that happened in past 2 months. Slow dancing of their lips makes her heart tingle with joy feeling ecstatic just like flying with her fabric in the air. Elliot makes his hand grab her waist pulling her gently to his own chest and securing her between his arms kissing so softly as if she would vanish if they break this moment
Evelyn pulls back and places a subtle kiss on his forehead before resting on his chest and intertwining their fingers letting her tears flow freely
"Where did you go Elliot?"
"Wales"
"I broke down Elliot. I thought you were so distressed and left you that night. Wish I didn't do that, I thought of coming over next day because you didn't see my text but Mom stopped me saying to give you some time and talk. I was so dumb to realize next day that I was too late, you were gone without a trace. Jack broke this news that apartment was put on sale. Do you know how it feels to cope up without knowing where you were?" She breaks down shaking her head tightening the grip on his hand
"I was in doldrums Evelyn but I couldn't take you off my mind. I left 1st morning, I didn't know where to go when Jace called me and I just left. After witnessing everything I just lost my trust in everyone"
"Can you please tell me, please?"
"Sure love, we will go somewhere. It isn't the right place"
"I missed you damn much Elliot" she pecks his lips again gaining a soft chuckle in return
"Me to Mi Cielo"
"I don't know what happened but be happy"
"Sure Harry, when will you show us your fiancé?" Elliot smiles
"Soon, I will let her meet you all. May be after bachelor party? Is that okay?"
"I won't be back till 6th"
"I am free after that too Evelyn. You Elliot?"
"I can attend"
.
"My brother's here"
"Oh. When did he come?"
"On Christmas. Do you know what I found Elliot?"
Elliot hums in a questioning way focusing on the road still not believing that his love, his sky is beside him. He regrets leaving her so broken and so oblivious to move on with her life. Sure he missed her like hell but she doesn't even know where he was living. They are heading to her studio as there's no one for practice today. A peaceful place where everything started, where their bond started, where they shared their first kiss.
"This place turns out more beautiful every time"
"It is, my safe heaven" Evelyn inhales stepping inside and turning the lights on
A golden dust color illuminates the room creating a romantic and dim atmosphere. The white fabrics hanging loosely with a shining silver fabric at the center looking amazing as ever. He watches her slowly removing her sweatshirt and standing their tying her hair in a ponytail with black tight leather trousers and lilac activewear stretching her body ready to fly
"Evelyn, are you sure?"
"I need this melancholy to melt down Elliot" She gently strokes his arms placing a kiss on his shoulder blade walking away to her fabric starting the music
Music starts with a violin melody echoing calmly in the room along with her wrapping herself securely with the fabric. She twirls, rolls and dances with all her heart completely ignoring all her surroundings. All the memories play in her head making a trail of tear drop down on her cheek. She wants to let go all the pain piercing through her heart shattering her body. Evelyn swirls her right ankle around the fabric securely before releasing her another leg followed by her entire body dropping down
She stays that way balancing on one ankle letting her body untangle with the fabric rotating in a steady pace. Elliot thinks of running towards her and embracing her tightly but he knows that she needs it. Dance has always been her escape, comfort, passion and everything. She lifts herself up contemplating on her next move for a few seconds before splitting her legs in a 180 degree angle and launching her hands to the adjacent fabric enjoying the feeling of flying. Nothing mattered at that moment, the cold air giving her goosebumps making Evelyn feel like she is drowned in her music
"Evelyn!" Elliot cries eyeing the dangerous move done by the latter rushing to her and separating her from the fabric. She rolls back into his arms wrapping her arms tightly around his neck breathing heavily and body trembling with sobs
He lowers himself against the wall with his love in his arms who is still shaking slightly glancing at him with droopy eyes
"Why would you do that, love?"
She looks at him unable to form a sentence stroking his cheek with her palm and other resting on his shoulder pulling him as close as possible
"I love you" she whispers slowly closing her eyes in his arms
