The thick strands of black hair slowly moved on the pale face as another chill breath passed through thin red lips. The thin aburn cloak waved in and out of the wind behind the figure as it sat purched on a worn stone tombstone. If it wasn't for the movement of fabric, it could be mistaken for a very lifelike statue. For the past few weeks the figure stayed in that exact spot all night long. Once the sun was up again, they would disappear untill it went down.
It was a bit pasted midnight when the figure showed some signs of moment. A pale slim hand reached into the cloak pocket, pulling out a slim box of cigarettes. Once the cancer stick was out of the box and nestled gently between the firm lips, the figure quickly lit it before taking a deep breath. Moments later a long cool breath escaped the figures lips, just as the long black hood fell away from its face revealing Lexa Avery.
Lexa had been sitting on the same gravestone everynight for the past month waiting and hoping that he would show up. It had been a while since she had seen him and after everything they went through, she knew he couldn't just throw it away. Not without a fight. At least she wasn't going to let him throw it away. Everynight she would sit there and wait, knowing he would come when he finally swallowed his anger and pride. There were some nights when she could tell he was near but never showed himself. She would wait as long as it took to finally get him to talk to her.
To this day she would never believe that such a trival agrument would break up a long lasting tight friendship. Especially one with so many secrets like theirs. Sighing heavily, Lexa played with the cigarette in her fingers, as she stared at tan line on her ring finger. It seemed like years since there was something on there, yet there were no regrets on her part for what happened. But that was a completely different story one that didn't need to surface unless it was noticed.
Taking another long puff from the cigarette, Lexa sighed and turned her attention to a mighty oak tree that stood a couple yards away. Her eyes flashed for a moment when the wind blew a new scent her way. Licking her lips, she took another puff of the cigarette. "Can't hide forever Alex. You're drawn to this place and you can't avoid it." She said casually not even raising her voice knowing Alex would hear either way.

Let me know what you think. I only wish I could actually have that person respond. This was a juicy storyline. My only character I had the most detail on. >< Hell I'd even be curious to see how you reply to it.
