“I don’t care what kind of shit the world throws at us now,” he said, slipping his hand into mine and lacing our fingers together, his eyes trained on the unending commotion outside. So he looked, and the awe in his expression grew to meet mine as he stared, not for the first time and certainly not for the last, at the life we were entering. I pulled Lucas closer to it-the poor boy practically stumbled into the glass-and said, “Look.” I absolutely loved it, because it was ours, and it was here.Īnd from the huge window on the far wall of the living room, what seemed like all of Manhattan stretched out below us. One bedroom, one bathroom, a living room, a kitchen, and a dining area-all that we needed. The apartment was small and partially furnished-Lucas insisted on spending the extra money for furnishings because he “refused to spend our first day in New York sleeping on the floor like peasants”-and littered all over with boxes and bags of our things. I think I really could have stood there all day, kissing him in our new, wonderful home, but my eyes itched for another look. He leaned up to kiss me-our first kiss in New York City-still chuckling against my lips, and I felt every butterfly, every chill, every spark imaginable. His yelp turned into a giggle, and pretty soon we were both in hysterics, laughing and crying even though there wasn’t anything real to laugh about after all we’d gone through, we deserved some laughter. I grabbed Lucas around the waist and, with a triumphant whoop, spun around with him in my arms, pulling his entire body with me.
#MANHWA DARK GAME CHAPTER 24 FULL#
The American big city didn’t care who I was or what I did.Ī rush of excitement came over me, just as uncontrollable as my smile, because we were free at last, and despite having just spent hours driving, I was full of a sudden, incredible energy. The American big city was a complete contrast from the American small town. But more abstract ideas-the mushy ones, like love and joy and freedom-were ours for the taking. Not in concrete concepts, of course-money and time were not infinite, and we would learn that time and time again in the years to come. War was over, and the struggle of battle made the triumph so much sweeter. Lucas leaned forward to rest his head on my chest and hugged me close. “Fuck off,” I laughed, looking up at the ceiling and blinking tears out of my eyes as my cheeks turned pink. “Since when are you the emotional type, Jean?” crying?” Lucas asked, trying and failing to suppress a chuckle. I turned around to face him and put my arms around his neck, took a good moment to just stand there and look at him and relish in the fact that he was mine, and that uncontrollable smile got bigger. “Yeah?” Lucas mused, and I could feel him smiling, too, against my back. “It’s just like the pictures-the physical ones and the ones in my head. I felt myself smile-one of those smiles that you absolutely can’t control, but it’s okay because you would never want to. “Eighteen years of dreaming, right there.” “I feel like it’s not real,” I said, my voice coming out distant. “Pretty crazy, huh?” Lucas chuckled, pressing a kiss to my shoulder. I nearly jumped at the sensation of arms sliding around my sides from behind, a chin resting on my shoulder blade. My hands were pressed against the glass my nose, too, because no matter how close I got, I felt as though I wasn’t close enough to see it all. From the cars, the sidewalks, the everything. From the lights-so many of them that not a single star could be seen in the night sky. From the buildings I looked down on, and the ones I had to lift my chin to see the tops of.
