The Twins
colourless because pain
Lui could hear the pain in Gio’s voice, could see the barely restrained pain he was feeling. He hated himself for being the cause of that, hated himself for ever thinking that he should meet Jacob without telling Gio. This was his love, the greatest thing that had ever happened to him, and he was standing in front of Lui, so clearly upset because Luciano had ruined it all. The words he was saying, each individual one was like a knife in his heart, twisting deeper as he went on. And when Gio met his gaze… Lui could see how utterly he had fvcked up. He choked back a sob, a tear running down the side of his face. “No, Gio—” He reached out for him, pulling his hand back as he realized that probably wasn’t the best idea. “It wasn’t too good to be true, Gio, please—” To his dismay, Gio simply turned and left the cafe, moving over to where his car was parked.
As he got into the car, Aline stepped away from where she stood with Jacob, glancing back to the front of the cafe, where Gio was now missing. Considering he was her ride, that was definitely concerning. She hurried out of the cafe, saying nothing to Luciano except a simple shake of her head. She couldn’t believe that he had kissed someone else… it was like he wasn’t even the Luciano she had grown up with anymore.
By the time Aline got out of the cafe, Gio had already reversed out of the parking spot and was merging onto the road. She ran, trying to wave him down, not wanting him to be alone but he either didn’t see her or ignored her and he kept going down the road. She slowed her pace from a run, to a jog, to a walk as she realized that Gio wasn’t going to stop for her. She paused for a breath, and as she looked up, not even a block away from her was Gio’s car, cruising through the intersection and then being crashed into from the back, Gio’s car soaring through the air because of the force.
Aline screamed, her hands flying to her mouth in terror as she watched the scene unfold in front of her. She must’ve started running again, she didn’t remember, but moments later she was at the intersection, right in front of the wreckage that was Gio’s car. She was sobbing, the tears ruining her carefully applied makeup and snot running down her face. The car was on its roof, the window shattered, revealing the broken boy that sat in the seat. She sat beside the car, pleading with him to wake up, with no response.
Please God, please please please. She rocked back and forth, just sobbing inconsolably beside the wreck. Arms wrapped around her, and she gasped, registering Lui’s presence without having to look up at his face. He was crying too, she could feel it in the shakes of his chest against her head. But it was comforting. Even though she blamed him for Gio’s crash, and she could feel that he blamed himself too, she knew that he would never have wanted it to end up like this. And he was beating himself up about it, she could tell.
“Lo siento, lo siento, lo siento mucho,” he was muttering, over and over again.
She hugged him tightly, rubbing his back. “Está bien. Todo va a estar bien,” she whispered through her tears. She wasn’t sure if she believed it herself, but she needed to say them.
‘Cause maybe then they would come true.
