★ I NEVER HAD NOBODY TOUCH ME LIKE I’M G L A S S WITH A MOON BIRD KISS
Initially, Hazel was traveling to the border on the promise of another new face and fresh air, but her reasoning took a sudden and abrupt change as the newcomer’s name floated past on the breeze. It was a beautiful name; one of flowing water and stargazing and dancing grass. It reminded her of a meteor shower or a waterfall. However, his last name reminded her of something entirely different. Something she hadn’t heard in...months, actually.
Caelum was Latin for the heavens, or the sky. It was a beautiful word. Hazel wanted it to sound beautiful, at least. She wanted it to be simply that: a pretty sound associated with a friendly face. That was easier than remembering how she would be forever tied to the woman who caused her so much pain. It was easier than remembering how Mother used to be sober around the clock, leaning over Hazel and cooing sweet nothings at her, murmuring Hazel Elise Caelum, Hazel Elise Caelum, with such affection it hurt. Named after the stars, she’d whisper, smile audible. named after the heavens like the little gift you are. And god, did it break her heart.
”Too bad the last words she said to you were about you being a miserable, worthless brat.” The mindscape girl shrugged, casual and bored. Hazel took a shuddering breath, forcing the thought out of her mind. Caelum must have been a common last name; there was likely no connection between her and this boy.
“Hi, Cass. I’m Hazel.” She greeted, eyes faintly glassy and reminiscent. “Hope you enjoy your stay here.”
