The Giver (A Fanfiction)
written by (: GONE !!
Hi!! My name is Lila Black. I live in a community of sameness. So that means no color, no emotions, no real family, no choices, and no LOVE. Where I live is called a dwelling and I can't touch anyone outside my imminent family. We have no memories but our own. The memories are kept by the Receiver of Memory the most important person in the community. The Elders keep us in line and make the choices for us. We have morning injections to keep the "stirrings" away. The "stirrings" are dreams of people and that those dreams have rules are broken. I took morning injections until I found out what they were. Now time to start. Let's go back to my dwelling.

"Why would I push you away?" As he says this he cradles me in his arms.
I laugh. "Ok, I believe you." And I really do believe him.
"Now," he says. "What do you want to tell me Lil Flower."
I start to go dark, my face burns, weird. I stare at the ground and squeeze his fingers unsure of how to say it.
"Ummm...." I continue to stare at the floor. "Well...Ok, Conner I..."
"Lila Black. What is it?" He asked kindly.
I take a deep breath. "Conner, I love you. When I look at the feeling gets stronger. I don't know if you feel the same way but I do." As I talk he takes both of my hands in his.
"Lila, I love you from the day I stopped taking injections. That's why I was always darker when you saw me. It's because I also love you, Lila." When he finishes he presses his forehead to mine. He stares into my eyes for what seems like the longest time. "I love you." He whispers to me.
"I love you too," I whisper back. "I always will."
As soon as the words left my mouth he kissed me. It was a gentle but serious kiss. It was soft and hard. The kind of kiss I liked doing apparently. I kissed him back unsure what to do. And then a minute later we broke apart and sat down on the ground. I laid my head on his shoulder looking out in the yard. He laid his head on mine and took my hand in his.
"You know what," he said. "I liked that more than I thought I would." He laughs as he says it.
I laugh. "Me too." I sigh and check the street for anyone who is near. You know just in case because we aren't suppose to do anything like this.
"You wan to come inside and eat lunch with me?" I ask.
"Sure, why not I haven't ate anything today." He says.
I laugh at that. "What do you mean? Didn't you eat breakfast in your dwelling?"
He doesn't respond for a few seconds before he answers. "I couldn't. I had to see you it was like the world would stop if I didn't see you and tell you how I feel. But you know how I feel now so I'm whole. Also that I know that you feel the same way."
I stand up and only nod. I couldn't speak. He gets up and we both walk in to my dwelling holding hands. But I stop before I go in and say...
