I was blue. The... Sad and always down one. You were red. The easily angered one. It started out as talking here and there. Eventually, it became a daily thing. As the talking got more common, I didn't wanna stop talking to you. I actually started to like the color red. After a while, I reached out to red, and she didn't reach back. Knowing I wasn't going to get red, I tried to move on, but I couldn't. I was still reaching out for you secretly, but you didn't know it. Than I met yellow, the upbeat, and happy one. What happened with you started to happen with yellow. But what I didn't know was you started reaching out for me. I had finally moved on, and you decided to reach for me. I looked back to you, after looking at yellow. As I looked at you, I started to turn green, but you couldn't see it. I politely rejected your hand, and went to yellow. After a while of not talking, I saw you, and you were blue. Next thing you know, I had turned back to blue because green didn't work very well for me. Once I realized I wanted red, which was now blue, it wouldn't work... Because blue just makes more blue. That's when I went to black, the " I can't escape the darkness" black. Being black is the worst. You can't mix with anyone else when you are black. Trying to escape being black is almost impossible, which can lead to becoming a spirit. Finally realizing that I wanted blue, I found out that you went to purple, which is being mad, and upset at the same time. Wondering if you had moved on or not, I went out, and found out that you didn't have another half, and we started our while cycle over again. When I wanted to reach out to you, I than realized that I would turn you black if we joined together. So I tried not to like you, but couldn't help it. Not wanting to take the risk, but wanting to know, I reached out for purple. Before I could think about pulling my hand back, I felt someone grab it. I turned around, and it was purple. As our hands touched, I saw the darkness that I had within me start to go into her. Once she grabbed me, I couldn't let go. You filled with black, and I was blue again. It had been a while since we talked, so I went out and found you. But you were not what I was expecting. You were a spirit. Realizing this, I turned black.

We are now together for eternity.

what inspired me to write this was some things that had went on in my life, and it would keep me up at night, so one night i just wrote this story, and it turned out pretty well.
