The Arabesque Machine

Alison: "Yes if you dont mind helping me." I said as I slide myself to the end of stage.

Kayleb: I picked her up and carried her downstairs.

Alison: I wrapped my arms around his neck and I laid my head down on his sholder.

Kayleb: I set her down on her bed.

Alison: "Thank you..." I said.

Kayleb: "Sure."

Alison: "Why are you like this?" I asked curiously.

Kayleb: "Like what?"

Alison: "Why are you not open?" I asked.

Kayleb: "I don't get it."

Alison: I sighed. "Why dont you talk much?"

Kayleb: "Because I don't?"

Alison: I nodded. "Ok then."

Kayleb: "Should I stay?"

Alison: I looked at and wanted him to stay. I couldnt explain why but I felt better when he was around. "Do you want to leave?"

Kayleb: "I do have to clean up some more."

Alison: "But do you want to leave?"

Kayleb: "I didn't say that."

Alison: "Then what do you want to do?" I asked softly.

Kayleb: "I don't know!"

Alison: "Why?"

Kayleb: "Does it matter?"

Alison: I shrugged "I guess it doesnt... you can leave if you want." I said drawing my kneese to my chest.

Kayleb: "I didn't say I wanted to."

Alison: "You dont want to leave?" I asked softly.
