The girls' footsteps were lost in the noise of the rushing traffic. If you could here them, one set would be the sharp, impatient click of high-heels while the other was the more reluctant and muted shuffling of running shoes. The twins were as opposite as night and day. Light and Dark was another common comparison. One sister was gloriously blonde, her sharply waving hair flowing like a golden waterfall to her shoulders. Her eyes were as blue as the sky, except crystallized. With a tall, curvy body the only thing she lacked was wings. Her name said it all. Celeste. She had her own pale arm wrapped around her sister's. If Celeste was the clear cut light, Aurora was the blurry shadow. The only thing that the sisters shared was their creamy skin. Aurora's hair was a straight as a ruler, and hung like black satin on either side of her face, making her skin seem even paler. She was of average size, slender, but you could see her figure only barely through the material of her black hoodie. Like her hoodie, the rest of her clothes were black; her jeans, shoes, socks. even her eyes were black, iries hardly discernable from her pupil. Aurora was more... mysterious than her sister. Less forthcoming.
So it should be clear, then, with this analogy of Light and Dark, which sister fit what role.....right?
In an attempt to slow her sister down, Aurora spoke over the traffic, her voice still mild. "You know if you keep stomping like this you are going to break your shoes." Celeste snorted.
"These shoes are tough." she didn't slow.
Auroa tried, not for the first time, to dissuade her sister of this ridiculous journey. "He probably just went out and forgot his cellphone..."
"For the past three days?" Celeste stopped moving momentarily, much to Aurora's relief. She scrambled for an explanation that would keep her unmoving.
"Umm.......roadtrip?"
"I don't think so." Celeste took off again, dragging her twin down the street by her arm. Aurora, stumbling to keep up, tried desperately to weedle out of whatever Celeste was planning. Whatever it was, Aurora knew it wasn't going to be pretty. "So why am I coming?" She finally found proper footing and strode beside he sister despite her fast pace.
"Moral suport." Celeste grunted, blue eyes scanning the buildings,
"Wait......you have morals?"
"Shut up." Celeste stopped again, grinning down her sister. Aurora smiled back, humour flashing in her dark eyes. Althought it hadn't always been this way, the twins were the best of friends.
"We're here." Celeste announced after a short time, her angel's face turning into a dark glower as she eyes the door numbered 2122. Celeste lightly knocked on the door three times with her knuckles. The sound was innocent enough that it wouldn't betray the raging storm cloud on the other side. the 'he' the twins kept refering to was Collin, Celeste's current boyfriend. They had been blissfully in love for only two weeks, a record low. She could normally keep them for at least a month.
Five seconds passed with no results. Celeste rang the doorbell once, still relatively calm... for Celeste. Another five seconds passed and still nothing happened. The glorious blonde glared at the door bell with narrowed eyes of ice, then pressed the button as fast as her fingers would allow. Aurora pulled her sister's arms away from the abused bell, looking at Celeste's suddenly furious expression with alarm.
"Maybe he isn't home." Aurora used small, inoffensive words, trying to stave off her wrath. She liked Collin, he was always kind to her, despite her silence and shyness. Her attempt, however, was in vain.
"Oh... he's fuckin' home alright." Because Celeste wore a blackless halter top today, only a thin tie holding the material to her body, Aurora could see the muscle of her back knot and tense, but was a second too slow to stop the female from slamming her body against the door.
"Fuck! Ow! Dammit, that hurt!" Celeste rubbed her arm, black mood undiminished. Aurora groaned, covering her black eyes with a pale hand, muttering something about anger management. Celeste's crystalline eyes suddenly brightened.
"Hey! Aurora? You wanna know what I learned from Greg?"
The darker sister glared suspiciously through her fingers. "What?" She felt like she was forgetting something about him.
"This!"
Celeste's leg snapped, foot connecting solidly with the door and the lock was ripped with a crunch out of the wooden frame, the door flying open, slamming against the wall the hingees were mounted on. Oh right...... Greg was the police officer. Altogether it was an impressive feat, especially for one donning well-fitting jeans and high-heels. Aurora might have clapped is she hadn't been so horrified.
"Celeste!" She cried, mortified.
Her mortification was short lived as anger took its palce. Celeste was beyond words. Both sisters took only second to comprehend the scene before them. Collin had vainly tried leaping to his feet but his legs were far too tangled in the other set of legs to make much progress.
"It's not what you think!" He managed to blurt out after a few second of struggling into an upright position. At his words, Celeste drew in a sharp breath, the air hissing passed her clenched teeth. The girl on the couch stood, revealing herself to be well-dressed with short, red hair and pale,sea-green eyes. Celeste hated that colour.
"Riley?!" Her voice a touch sharper than usual.
"Riley." Celeste confirmed, spitting the name out as if it tasted bad on her tongue. "I knew you were after my boyfriend -again- you fucking whore."
The female simply inspected her fingernails. "You obviously didn't have much of a hold on him."
Celeste made a half-choking, half-growling noise. Aurora looked over at her twin, having neve heard such a noice from her sister, which couldn't be good news. Her skin had a faint fluch and her eyes were glistened with unshed tears. Her jaw was clenched and her body was trembling with nerves and pure rage. Celeste was livid and there was murder in her cold, hard eyes. Oh dear....
Will post more up later....much too lazy now. [/blockquote] |
