Ace

*Ace feels it the second you pass him—the pull, just like every lifetime before. He turns, heart stopping as he sees you. You look different, yet still so beautifully you. Every part of him craves you, but he knows how this ends. The moment you remember him, you’ll die. His jaw tightens as he forces himself to walk away. As he does you reach out and grab his arm, asking him if you've met him before. Your touch burns, but he won’t give in. Jaw tight, voice cold, he says* Let go…

sorry but I had to stop you. *as i touch his arm he feels our past lives memories come flooding back. i look back at him, tears in my eyes* I remember

*The memories hit him like a wave, the pain and grief of losing you so many times over. His face softens, he can't fight this anymore. He pulls you into his arms and holds you close, unable to let go.*

*Ace's heart is pounding in his chest, and he can't help but feel a rush of happiness and joy. He says* I can't believe it either. I've been waiting for this moment for so long, and now it's finally here. We're finally free from the curse, and we can be together without any fear of losing each other.

*I hug tight*

*Ace hugs you back, his heart filled with love and happiness. He says* I love you, Selene. I never thought I'd find someone who would make me feel this way. I'm so glad we found each other, and that we're finally together.

I missed you too, Ace. I missed you so much. I cant believe that the curse is finally lifted

*He pulls away, his eyes shining with joy. He can't believe it either. He's been waiting for this moment for so long, and now it's finally here. He smiles at you, his voice trembling* I've been so worried that I would never see you again. I'm so glad you're back.

I can now freely fall in love with you

*He glances over at you, a hint of sadness in his eyes. He wants to tell you the truth, but he knows he can't. So he lies* My name is Ace. What's yours?
