LET THE STORM RAGE ON

The cold never bothered me anyway

Kim took a deep breath. People kept telling her to take deeps breaths and focus on her breathing. How could she focus when she had the attention span of a gnat? Anyone who didn't understand her, which was most people, would start going on about deep breathing and how much it helped. As someone who'd been subjected to performing that act, Kim knew it was just the easy way out of helping her.
She was sitting on the cold sand of the beach. Dusk had just settled in. Ron would be walking around here any moment now. Kim never liked formal questions like, "Do you want to go on a date at this specific time?" She thought if she simply waited for Ron he would show up. She wanted him to sit next to her. That was it. No hugging or making out. She just wanted him next to her. She wanted to feel his presence, smell him. Ron smelled like sage. It was a comforting scent. Kim had always liked it.
She watched the lake try to move again. The ice that had once been completely solid was now slowly turning into sludge. A small wave rolled in by her feet, and before it crashed, she waved her hand, freezing it perfectly. She smiled. It must have been twenty degrees out, but Kim wore a beige and black striped loose sweater over a white t-shirt with pale pink roses dotting it. Her legs were clad in faded skinny jeans with rips in them, and her feet bore her favorite pair of black Doc Marten boots. Kim was a child of snow. She never thought about cold.
Kim played with her snowflake necklace. A few of her siblings and her had bought the jewelry together last summer, to show appreciation for mother dearest. Kim was so used to wearing it by now, that she'd almost forgotten the story behind it, and she liked remembering stories. She wondered how her story would be told when she was gone. Would they even tell it? Would anyone remember the lonely, sad girl with depression? There were probably a million stories like hers. Well, they might not involve ancient Greek gods as parents, but still.

Ronald Alexander Septavian

Son of Janus

The wind was cold and cut right through Ron’s camp tee. Hunching his shoulders, he stuck his hands in his jeans and forced through the cold of the beach. This was a regular thing now, him walking. Despite the weather, he took a walk through the beach every evening, clearing his mind of stress and letting his mind wander. Before, Ron just worried for the health of the camp, with the recent attacks and all. Now, all his mind thought about was Kim. Kimberly Breeze, daughter of Khione, love of his life. He squeezed his eyes shut as the familiar ache in his chest came back. Even though they had made up and gotten closer during the battle on New Year’s, he still couldn’t forget the shards of ice in his wounded heart, the ones that had lodged themselves when Kim left. When Kim came back. When he tried to at least befriend her again. He’d try to convince himself that they didn’t hurt anymore, but a broken heart didn’t mend easily, and did not heal perfectly. He felt the stinging in his throat that preceded tears, and looked up, quickly wiping at his eyes.
The tears still came.
Through the blur of his unclear eyes, he saw a figure ahead of him, with curly blonde hair and pale skin. By now, he’d learned every view of the person in front of him. What she looked like when she laughed. When she cried. After a long battle. The girl who constantly plagued his mind every agonizing second of everyday.
Somehow he’d gotten closer. Five feet, four feet, three feet. At one foot he sat down, crossing his legs. He was still too choked up to speak a proper sentence, and the thoughts he’d been dwelling on were still painful. But he owed Kim something.
“Hello.”

LET THE STORM RAGE ON

Kim turned around when he spoke. His lackadaisical attitude was confusing to her. Last time they spoke, an argument had ensued where Kim revealed her depression. Ron had looked beyond hurt by hers words, which weren't meant to be offensive. Now he was just casually sitting next to her with no qualms.
"Hi," she replied, turning back to face the Long Island Sound. She hugged her bare knees, not because of the cold, but to try to hide her anxiety. She shook a lot, and curling up usually helped her be still.
She thought about leaning back onto Ron, but was conflicted. She wanted to love him like she once had, back when she was silly and naive, but there was a voice inside her head telling her to not get close to him. She had this uneasy feeling a lot lately. She could feel that her being with Ron again would not end well.
She sighed and looked back at him again. He looked cold. She cracked a smile.
"Shouldn't you be wearing a sweater?" she asked him sarcastically. Kim had always enjoyed making fun at others sensitivity to harsh weather. Kim may have not known Khione, but she enjoyed her powers.
For a moment, Kim wanted to hug Ron to end his shivering. However the worry in her mind was far too great to ignore. She began thinking, how does someone learn to love again?
