Watcher

  She was sorry that she interfered.  It was at times like this though that she couldn’t help herself.  Laying there on the bed she stared at the curled form in front of her, when their friends had gone to get food for the movie they were about to watch, she felt the air shift, as emotions were less crowded.  There was only two in the room now.

Her own emotions were held at bay; staying in the grey area she continued to walk the fine line between reality and fantasy, between sanity and madness.  It gave her something in return though, a gift for her trouble of staying in balance.  It was that gift that would curse the woman in front of her.

The curled woman, Selina, was someone that believed that she was capable of hiding everything from everyone, but when the other two had left the room she felt the overwhelming wave of confusion wash around her.

Rai stared into her friends back, watching and listening to the inner battle as she tried to find a way to cope with what was happening.  Then she saw it, the base for her questioning and so in her mind she formed the answer that would both give her ease and take her farther into herself.

“Sometimes it is better to lay it under the carpet.  Some messes are best left till we are ready to face them, until then rest in bliss and ignorance; it is not always a bad path.”

The words caused Selina to tense up, and Rai felt her inner voice become quiet as she took in the words.

“How- What are you saying that about”  a touch of fear and disbelief lays bare in her voice, her friend always thought she knew Rai, but there were many things about her that would cause the woman in front of her to cower in fear.

However she would never give her that, her darkness was her own.  And so she merely laughed lightly and touched Selina’s shoulder for comfort.

A/N - Wow these weird shorts are adding up lol.  Don't really expect the story line to be clear, these are just events in a bigger picture. ;)
