Before You Knew My Name 소설 & 이야기

June I call his name before I even realize I’m doing it. “Hermes.” My voice comes out thin, shaking, nothing like me. My fingers are trembling against the edge of the table, my chest tight, my lungs barely working. I don’t know why I look at him first—but I do. And that’s all it takes. Hermes moves. Ted reacts instantly, grabbing his arm. “Hermes—don’t. Calm down. Think—”

No action required on your end today. She read it in the bathroom again, which had apparently become her location for important information. She looked at herself in the mirror for a moment. The face that looked back was her own face — the one that had sat across from Diana Hale at a dinner table and smiled, the one that had shaken Marcus's hand on her first day, the one that had been in this building for months now, doing this work and doing it well, and had never once been anything other than Celeste Vane, which was her actual name and also the name on the filing and also the name Diana would now be reading.

Before the water reached me, my body gave out and I collapsed. But just before darkness pulled me under… I heard it. My name. "Aina." His voice.

The name left me before I could stop it. “Laura.”

Something tells me it is my name, but how? I shake my head, “Yours. Roman Domino” I blink at her. “You heard my name fifteen years ago, the day your parents were killed?” “Yes” “That means you knew who I was before we met” “I did. I live my life knowing who you were and how to have my revenge on you” I did not see that Coming. It hurts that she knew who I was all along and was just pretending to get her revenge. “I see. How was my name called?”

"What was your name before the name change?" Here it comes, the moment before I will be rejected once more. I'm not ready for it, but I can't live in a fairy tale forever. Logan deserves to know because if I kept dancing around without him knowing I'm his best friend from the past, it wouldn't be real love. He needs to know even if it will break us apart, even if it will shatter my glued together heart. Goosebumps prickle over my skin, and I shiver in my seat, afraid of the outcome. "My name was—"I bite my lower lip, hesitating before pushing my old name out through my lips. "My name was Ethan."

“What's your name? I don't even know your name.” “My name is Fabian.”

"Why do you need my name?" "To know you" "What will you get knowing ny name?" "I said it okay, I want to know you, and I know you hate me calling you bumper"...he said and I could only sigh to him before saying my name. "Fine, I'm Sarah"....I said. "I'm Way--" "I know, no need to say it"....I cutted him off and he takes back his hand. "Well, I'm famous so I guess someone like you have already known me"..he proudly said and laughed.

And the last thing I heard before the world dropped out beneath me was Dream’s voice calling… my name. But I couldn’t remember which one was mine.

To Percival: How did you know my name?!
