Hi! Can you do Shiv Roy x fem!reader angst? Leaving it up to you what about
“I always want you when I’m finally fine”
pairing: Shiv Roy x fem!reader
summary: After you confessed that you loved her, Shiv had all but told you not to call her…ever. So you’re thrown off guard when you get a phone call from her at 3 am.
warnings: 18+ sexual themes,angst, toxic relationships, strong language, alcohol use
notes: obviously this fic is inspired by the song, listened to an entire mitski playlist as I wrote this so do with that info what you will haha.
You were always a worrier.
Constantly fearing and expecting the worst-case scenario, a request for a simple conversation suddenly had you feeling like you were about to get horrific news and a late-night phone call usually had you spiraling.
So that’s why you’re surprised at yourself when your phone starts ringing at God knows what time, and you immediately stretch your arm out with a groan to quickly press decline, despite not knowing whom the call was coming from, before rolling over onto your side with a silent promise to chase it up in the morning.
You’d been practicing doing that recently: ‘protecting your peace’, is what the overly chipper, new-age psychologist whom you’d recently started paying thousands to “fix” you called it.
Then the vibrating starts up again…you’re not happy.
Muttering expletives under your breath you snatch the phone from your bed stand before raising it up to your ear.
You’d been tossing and turning all night and had just managed to fall asleep but of course, someone had to wake you the moment you had dozed off. You say a silent prayer at the fact that you had tomorrow off from work or else you’d be downing cups of coffee all day to have some kind of semblance to a functioning person.
"Uh-huh?" You hum, eyes half-lidded as you already start to nod off again.
"...hey, uh...I'm outside, can let me into your building?"
The voice is slurred and rambling, but you recognise it all the same, suddenly wide awake as you scramble to your feet, phone pulled away from your ear in disbelief to squint at the name on the display:
"What? Siobhan...It’s 3am"
Not to mention you didn't want to see her.
…You shouldn’t want to see her was probably closer to describing it.
You peer down from one of your windows and sure enough, she is standing there, arms folded across her chest and that bored look on her face, breath catching in your throat at the mere sight of her. You look for any sign of another party near her, eyebrows furrowing at the fact there is no car black car parked outside one of the neighbouring houses.
Where was the car that had dropped her off?
This was anything but the first time you'd been summoned for a classic Shiv Roy booty call. But usually, it came in the form of a "come over?” or an “I miss you” text when you think she was feeling extra mean. You'd drop everything like the pathetically devoted follower you were, opting instead to spend the rest of the night swallowing the feeling of self-loathing as the two of you would fuck each other into oblivion.
You knew the rules: It was always at some 5-star hotel; never at yours or any of her many homes- that was too personal. You were never supposed to linger after. Shiv Roy was straight to the point, and concise, she didn't do pillow talk.
One time she’d seemed particularly stressed out and you'd tried to ask her if she was okay and in turn, were promptly put in your place and shown the door. You didn’t have access to or get to see that part of Shiv (if she even still existed) anymore.
Safe to say you didn’t bother trying to fill the cold, endless silence after that.
To her credit, she would always call you a taxi, or get one of her drivers to drop you off the moment you were done, and you'd sit silently crying in the car on the way home, clasping the broken pieces of your heart in your hands, trying to hold yourself together until Shiv decided she needed you again.
Waiting for her to call, to touch you and make you whole. To make you mean something.
So naturally, of course, you were shocked to see her outside of where you lived again.
You think back to the only other occasion she’d been at your apartment, your birthday a year ago. She’d come to collect you for one of your “meetings” and had surprised you by coming equipped with your favourite vanilla bean cake from Magnolia Bakery. She seemed unusually light…happy (and definitely a little bit drunk) and even sang you an out-of-tune rendition of happy birthday that made your cheeks hurt from smiling. You’d put your favourite record on and asked her to dance with you in your kitchen and she’d rolled her eyes claiming she didn’t listen to music, you’d laughed at how ridiculous that sounded (she was always such a fucking cliché), but she’d danced with you anyway.
She’d touched you and had seen you, really seen you…but the moment was fleeting, the same cold no nonsense Shiv the moment you left for the hotel. Sometimes you think you’d imagined that day.
You’re surprised she even still remembers your address.
“Please?” she sighs out softly
You could never say no to her.
Well-trained, you obey buzzing her with a sigh of resignation. What were you doing?
Moments later, Shiv twirls out of your lift into your condo with a giggle and you realised dreadingly that she's wasted. Not even the standard Shiv level of buzzed that she usually was when you saw her for your “night-time meetings”.
She looked frazzled and her hair was slightly askew but she still had one of those forced fake looking smiles on her face.
Were you having a fever dream? Maybe you’d lost it.
"These are killing me!” She groans taking off her heels and tossing them onto the floor of your foyer behind her-making herself right at home besides the fact this was her second time even being in your loft.
You keep your mouth closed, unsure of what to say.
"I was at Kenfest...and it was...a shit show, Roman fucked me and secured the Matsson for Dad behind my back." She explains stumbling into your apartment.
"I was dancing you know..." she uncharacteristically giggles, leaning in to whisper conspiratorially, despite there only being two of you in the entire loft.
You ignore her,
"In the middle of the dancefloor too”.
Shiv begins to give you a demonstration, not receptive to the fact that there was no music playing. You have to turn away, unable to stop yourself from cracking a small chuckle at her performance. Drunk or not, you didn’t want to give her the satisfaction.
"See? Just like how we used to back in our London days...Do you remember the raves and house parties we used to go to?” she chuckles.
You turn to pour yourself a glass of water, anything to keep your hands busy,
not even attempting to pick up the bone she just so eagerly threw your way.
Making a forbidden reference to your past and she actually seemed to look back on it fondly? A couple of months ago, before that night, you probably would’ve chased at it, practically fawning at her feet.
This inkling doesn’t stop your heart from fluttering in your chest though.
"Why are you here Shiv?" You question after a while, eyes narrowing, already knowing you were wasting your time trying to have an effective conversation with someone this drunk.
The heiress stares at you before throwing her hands in the air blasély,
"You called me a vampire...they can't be out in the day...can they?"
You try your best not to wince at her words and immediately fail.
"...I went to Kenfest…and not that I was looking or anything, there were so many people…but I noticed you weren't there…”
Sure, you’d received an invite to Kendall’s birthday party. But that wasn’t really your scene anymore.
"I know you Naomi are friends...I thought you’d be there but…but you didn’t go. Why not?” she rambles manically,
“I don’t care or anything, but… Kendall put you on the list s-”
"Is that why you came here at 3am? To lecture me for skipping out on "Kenapalooza?" you interrupt massaging your temples,
She at least has the decency to look embarrassed.
"I just…I miss you" she stutters, nonchalant as though this was just a standard afternoon, and you were two friends who’d just happened to bump into each other.
That dreaded feeling of realisation slowly creeps through your body.
So that’s why she was here.
What this was really about.
Everything was always about fucking with Shiv. Getting fucked over by her family or some other corporate big wig. Fucking you both physically or metaphorically. Fucking with you.
You feel yourself starting to get angry.
“Yeah? I’m not in the mood to be in the same room as you, let alone fuck so your luck’s all out.”
Shiv balks at the accusation, “What? Fuck you Y/n, I’m being serious…I mean it.”
You let a laugh in disbelief,
“Oh, you mean it do you Shiv? Fuck me? Fuck you.”
"We don't have that or any kind of relationship with each other anymore...you made that very clear... "
Her jaw sets and she looks away from you, fiery stare instead directed at the pillar in the middle of your living room. You think it had the potential to snap it in half
"Oh, get off your moral high horse-you gave just as good as you got that night... " she laughs, tilting her head to the side even though none of this was really that funny.
You'd bared your soul to her that night. You told her you loved her, and she’d gotten angry at your confession and had shot down you in classic Roy fashion. She didn’t want to hear it. She didn’t have time for this. The two of you already had a good thing going but you were too weak and had ruined it.
You just weren't good enough. You never would be.
A rat backed into a corner, you’d lashed out at her, desperately hurling insults, and a couple of cruel truths at her to see what stuck. Anything to try and hurt her the way she'd hurt you.
You’d called her a megalomaniac, an emotionally repressed vampire.
"Do you remember? I know I do."
Shiv smiles a twisted grin at the haunted look in your eyes, a deer in the headlights, and smelling blood she zeroes in on your exposed weakness. Anything to get a show of emotion from you.
Sure, Shiv lived up to her name, tongue as sharp as her namesake. But she was a mean drunk and could quickly turn downright fucking cruel after a couple of shots, you knew and had seen that first hand, the fact that she'd been dancing and singing in your kitchen moments ago didn't save you from that.
She licks her lips, a predator ready to sink its teeth into her prey,
"You begged on your knees for me to change my min-"
"Just stop, Shiv. Fuck!" You yell, eyes glistening with unshed tears, and the both of you jump, the latter looking taken aback.
For just a second there, she looks like the scared lonely rich girl you’d first befriended at high school and your heart sinks.
“I’m sorry.” You murmur placing your head in your hands,
Only 10 minutes into conversation, and you were already cracking under the weight of her words. You really were weak y/n.
You'd known Shiv for years now and were more than familiar with her acerbic tongue but regardless she always knew the right thing to say to push your buttons, even after all this time,
"I don't want to rehash this with you...so just go and be with your fucking husband whom you love so much Siobhan," you mumble, unable to look at her.
This time it’s her turn to wince.
"Fine." Shiv stumbles to her feet again taking an unsteady step towards your door,
“Are you not gonna call your driver to pick you up?” you ask chewing on your bottom lip,
“Why, do you give a fuck now?” she pouts mockingly,
“No, I sent him home for the night…I’m walking…just like I did to get here” Shiv hums matter-of-factly as she attempts to put her shoes back on, failing spectacularly.
She could not be serious.
Your loft was in TRIBECA... Shiv lived on the other side of Manhattan.
You think back to looking for a car that wasn’t there when she’d first arrived at your place.
Okay, so hadn't taken a car…you knew she wouldn't be caught dead riding the subway...which meant she had in fact walked.
How had she not gotten mugged?
Daughter of one of the richest men in the world roaming alone in New York?
You couldn’t let her go back out there.
You look over at the redhead and she’s still struggling to do the buckle of her shoes.
It was getting painful to watch.
“Sit down” you sigh, and she shoots you a look,
“No…you don’t want me here.” She replies tersely,
“Just… fucking sit-down Siobhan...please" you sigh, turning around to place a slice of sourdough bread into your sandwich press when she obliges, clumsily sitting herself down at your kitchen island.
If she was going to stick around, you needed her to be soberer than this.
Shiv drums her fingers on the countertop, those beautiful blue eyes dancing around at your room before she begins to spin herself around on the stool she’s sat on, a shit-eating grin spread across her face, your previous exchange of words clearly already forgotten.
She had to be,at the very least a solid 5 cosmos in.
The sight is in jarring in comparison to the full corporate dinner get-up she has on, but you also can’t help but acknowledge it’s the most carefree you’ve seen her look in a while. The redhead usually had that faraway look in her eyes, like she was thinking about 20 different things at once.
She watches you cut her toastie up into squares in silence, and you reach across the table to place the it in front of her.
She raises a perfectly manicured eyebrow at you.
"Eat up." You state simply sliding the plate closer to her,
Shiv peers at the plate in horror, and anyone would be forgiven for thinking that you'd tried to serve her a turd on her plate, before she pushes it away from her like a petulant child, those piercing blue eyes giving you a look that could kill.
She used to love your classic grilled cheeses.
"It's not caviar or a prime cut of wagyu from Le Bernardin but I promise it's not going to kill you." You nudge teasingly, your attempts at negotiation falling on deaf ears as you’re rewarded with a scoff.
Fuck it.
You press your lips in a straight line leaning down to be eye level with her, attempting to give her your own take on the classic Shiv Roy death glare.
"I’ll make you something else If you want but you don’t eat at least something I’m going to kick you of my apartment and onto your ass Siobhan.”
The heiress blinks a couple of times, nonplussed at being told by you of all people what to do and begrudgingly she eats up, the alcohol clearly making her more compliant than usual.
You let out a discreet breath, glad she didn't call your bluff. The truth was that you loved Shiv so ardently that even if the circumstances were different, you wouldn’t even dream of doing that.
The last time you'd spoken she'd pretty much gutted you like a fish, letting her in your apartment was literally going against everything your brain and your therapy sessions told you to do, yet here she was.
You’d do anything for her and that was scary.
There was never any logic, or acknowledgment of your boundaries and wants when Shiv was around. That was you; Y/N the people pleaser.
But how could you help it?
Your love for her was so heavy you could feel its weight on your shoulders as you walked, it sat in the back of your mind like a stone, it clouded your lungs as you breathed...and you eventually couldn't take it anymore. You were choking on it.
You'd coughed it all up and Shiv took one look at you, at all that love, and she’d turned her nose up in disgust. It came down to it and she didn't choose you. You just weren't enough. You never would be.
You used to think about what it would be like to have her here all the time; Shiv in one of your old T-shirts, perched on the countertop cracking one of her sardonic one-liners as you cooked but you scold yourself immediately, waving the thought away with a wave of your hand.
You watch her in silence as she slowly eats, satisfied as you notice her eyes were less bleary, and she was slightly more subdued, her chaotic and abrasive drunkenness seeming to have mellowed out to her just being slightly tipsy. You could relax in the fact that you likely wouldn’t be cleaning her vomit off of your mahogany floors tomorrow morning at the very least.
You rise to your feet, wordlessly turning to head to your room, and she takes the hint and follows you.
It wasn’t like your place had a guest room anyway.
You watch her in silence as she slowly begins to take off her bracelets, earrings, then her necklace, pausing when she gets to her watch.
"…It’s been 5 months y/n…were you just...never going to call me again?" She whispers eventually, voice small.
She didn't exactly make it seem like she wanted to hear from you.
What did you say to that?
How were you supposed to lay out a decade and a half of hurt in one sentence?
You shrug, unknowing of the answer yourself.
"We already did it enough as teens and in our 20s, so I just…I didn't feel up to playing 'friends' again with Mrs Roy-Wambsgans..." you stare at your hands so that you don’t have to look at her,
You hear her take in a shuddering breath.
"I'm not trying to be a cunt...but that's the reason why. And our last conversation really did a number on me...after we spoke I was just so...."
Shiv nods, swallowing deeply, before turning your back to you, moving her hair to the side.
You take the hint and help her unzip her dress.
"I'm sorry..." she murmurs tears welling in her eyes as she climbs out of it, the soft green fabric falling to the floor, leaving her in her underwear.
"I know..." you breath out in exhaustion, handing her a pair of your satin pajamas.
You were so tired. Tired of hearing sorry. Tired of feeling sorry. Tired of being in love with a woman who didn't want to give you the time of day unless you had something she needed. You were tired of giving. You had nothing more to give.
"Do you remember, the night before my wedding?"
"Please don't do this to me again, Shiv." You beg in anguish,
She opens her mouth again, eyes glistening,
"I begged you not to marry Tom..." you interrupt, hoping hearing the story from your own lips would make it hurt less,
"You said that I could do so much better than him...that he didn't love me as much as you did" continues Shiv
"And maybe that is true... maybe I can do better...maybe he can do better."
Shiv's chest shudders and she presses her eyes tightly shut,
"But...most of all you can do better than me."
"you're selfless and compassionate...and I don't know if I can love you in the way that you want the way that you say you lov"-
"But do you?"
You croak out, voice breaking,
"Well…what difference does it make..." she sighs dejectedly.
You slowly walk toward her, hand slightly raised like you were approaching a dangerous animal as you look into the shorter woman's eyes.
"Shiv…do you love me?" You whisper again voice catching after each word.
Shiv opens and closes her mouth repeatedly, and you wait for her to say something as she searches for the right words.
She looks at you, that same vague look in her eyes, lifting her hand as though reaching out to touch you but she pauses halfway, opting to put her thumb in between her teeth, biting as though physically retraining herself.
You didn’t really know her anymore, but you still recognised her tells, the puckering of her lips when she was trying to stop herself from saying something, the biting of the tip of her thumb when she was anxious.
You watch taken aback, as her face starts to twist with emotion.
You'd never seen Shiv truly lost for words like that.
She rakes a hand through her hair in exasperation.
"I...fuck" she grunts, retreating from you, as she turns to angrily wipe away a stray tear with the back of her right hand,
"You're good...too good." She sniffs shielding her tear-streaked face away from you,
"I'm....not a good person y/n, I don't want to tarnish you with my...me."
You look at her with a sigh before letting out an empty chuckle, looking upwards as you feel the tears, you'd been holding in start to stream down your cheeks,
Maybe it was too late for that.
The damage had already been done.
Shiv suddenly turns around to look at you, eyes hardened with resolve as she quickly stalks across the room, before she straddles your lap, pressing her forehead against yours.
She leans forward, gently leaning in to kiss your tears away in a silent apology and your eyes flutter closed at the sensation, trying to burn the feeling of her touch into your memory.
She places a frantic kiss against your cheek. Then your wrist.
Then another wet kiss against that soft spot below your jaw that she knows drives you crazy and you melt into her as you reward her with a needy moan, goading her on, once again.
You just couldn't help yourself.
"Fuck...Shiv..." you mewl, arms draped around her neck,
"You like that...right?" She whispers, her tone sultry and slow but, but her touch contrastingly frantic
Why did this feel like a test.
"only thing sweeter than the sound of those moans you make is how you taste..." she husks,
No matter how much you really wanted to.
"Please" she gasps in between trailing kisses down your neck,
"I want to give you everything you deserve...”
“…so much...I really want to try but don't know how."
"You were right about what you said...last time...All I do is take and take and take but it's because I don't know how to give." continues the heiress, voice wobbling.
"Just let me give you this..." she continues in a ragged breath, hand reaching under your top to palm one of your breasts, gently pinching your nipples and you squeeze your tear-filled eyes shut as you can’t help but find yourself arching into her touch.
"Just tell me what you want me to do to you...I just...want to make you feel good" she rasps but it’s off, her voice sounds shaky...desperate,
“This is the only way I know how”.
Sex with Shiv always was always so good, but you always found yourself feeling worse off after. You were greedy. You wanted more. More of Shiv. You wanted all of her-but you'd settle for this, doing anything to have her close.
But the want was eating away at you.
Chipping at you bit by bit until there was nothing.
Sometimes you felt like that'd already happened. Like there was nothing left to you anymore, you were just a black hole and you and your thoughts were just all Shiv.
“I don’t know Shiv…” you sigh suddenly, begrudging pushing her hands away from you, despite the fact that they felt oh-so good on your body.
Shiv pauses, tear stained face frowning at you in confusion, as she tries to figure you out
“O-Okay well…how about you can just do whatever you want to me?” she suggests frantically, guiding your hands under her shirt, you can feel her trembling slightly beneath your skin,
"Let just leave it.” You sniff,
She jumps out of your lap as though burned.
Sometimes your relationship with Shiv felt like a wound, and she was a vampire; that maybe she couldn’t help it, but the moment she smelt blood she'd feast on you, your affection, your infatuation. She’d always be gone the moment there was nothing more of you to devour. Each time you were left behind, desperately still clinging onto the bloody remains of the love you still had for her despite her them between her teeth.
You'd been periodically drifting in and out of each other’s lives this way for the past 17 years.
First, you were 15, the quiet new girl at Sacred Hearts who'd been plucked out of obscurity to be best friends with Shiv 'the queen' Roy- you remember ducking under the bedsheets at a sleepover with her exchanging kisses and giggling, a private and exciting secret between the two of you…you were her dirty secret, even now it felt like you always would be. Then you were the 20-something London party girls who were joint at the hip: appearing oddly close to others but nothing more than friends who just happened to secretly sleep with each other sometimes.
Then there was whatever this was.
This Shiv wasn’t really your friend, or even your “lover” anymore, sometimes the term felt too warm to describe what you were doing together. This Shiv was worlds away from the one you once knew; she wore turtlenecks and silk blouses and had a sharp blunt cut bob and the insults to match.
What had happened in the years you’d been away from each other?
You wanted to hug her. To hold her close to you for as long as she’d let you and tell her that she didn’t have to put on the armour anymore, that you were safe, and that she could be vulnerable with you without any ulterior motives.
But now you were asking yourself whether there even was any armour to take off anymore. maybe this was just Shiv now. But then on the occasion there were those odd moments, those slithers of light, where you saw glimpses of the Shiv you once knew again; how she’d often make teasing jokes with that old sparkle in her eyes, the way she giggles, ticklish when your fingers ghost past her waist in bed, the way she’d kiss you sweetly in the moments after…how she looked at you in adoration when you came undone.
You’d realised after that that you loved her anyway. Shiv Roy: jaded rich private school girl, party girl socialite, ruthless Waystar-Royco successor…you loved them all.
But the thing was didn't know if you had it in you to keep on doing this. If your heart could take any more of this.
"So…what, things just never gonna go back to the way they were before then?" Shiv asks evenly, the youngest Roy hunching over herself as she cradles her elbows close to her side, looking off into the distance-unable to meet your eyes.
Before what?
Before she broke your heart?
Before you'd kissed for the very first time?
Or before you told her you loved her?
You close your eyes with a sob, before shaking your head,
"Maybe... we need to cut our losses here...maybe this is wasting our time, and this isn't what either of us needs."
Maybe the problem wasn't other people...but just you and Shiv. The two of you weren't meant to be in each other's lives. No matter how much you loved her it wouldn't be enough.
Shiv was assured, practical, cautious and calculated: almost everything she said and did had a motive or thought behind it, even her marriage had logic and purpose and some kind of benefit driving it alongside the fact she loved him.
Shiv worked and strove toward power.
You on the other hand wore your heart on your sleeve when you were upset or emotional you cried openly and outwardly. You drifted through life trying to find an identity for yourself outside of your rich family…you were always trying to fix things and people that couldn’t or didn’t want to be fixed, trying to worm your way into Shiv’s heart when she didn’t want you to.
It was never going to work. She was never going to pick someone like you.
"Okay well...I need you." She grits out tensely, fists tightly balled by her sides. You could see her eyes were watering again.,
But maybe it wasn’t in the same way you needed her. You wanted her. You wanted her with every fibre of your being.
"I need you." sniffs Shiv, so quiet and wavering you have to strain to hear her, grabbing onto you as though you might disappear,
"But you don't love me" you weep, crumbling at the realisation that she was never going to see you the way you saw her.
Shiv doesn't say anything, but you think that's all you need to hear.
She crawls into your bed, maintaining her silence as she lifts the blanket for you to climb in after her. You slide in beside her, at first back first pressed against hers, but eventually mentally talking yourself into turning to face her. You inch forward until your noses are touching.
She was beautiful and she knew it.
Once when you were kids, you'd stared at her during the entirety of a study session, attempting to count all of the freckles dusted on her face, and when you'd told her what you were doing she'd rolled her eyes and kissed the thought away from your mind.
She was like nothing you'd ever seen before...she was gorgeous, but she also had the most expressive piercing blue eyes; cold at first glance but always swirling with emotion beneath the surface...she'd become an expert at making sure you could never tell which ones.
You'd do anything to get inside of her head. To know what she was thinking. Whether you truly ever meant something to her.
"My sweet, Sweet y/n." She whispers, but it almost feels mocking, you're unable to tell if her voice was dripping with sweetness or condescension.
Sweet, Sweet, stupid Y/N. Willing to risk it all for someone who would never love you back.
She was right in saying you were hers.
Your heart did belong to Shiv.
But Shiv wasn't yours.
She never was, and she never would be.
She cups your face in her hands, thumbs gently stroking your cheeks before she pulls you into a sweet kiss that seems to go on forever and you revel in the feeling of her lips on yours, grasping onto her as though she might disappear until the kiss tastes salty from both of your tears.
You don't let go of her, wanting to keep the feeling of the soft warmth of her skin against yours, fingertips slowly raking down her arms, starting from her shoulders, taking time to map out each and every beautiful blemish on her skin on the way down. It reminded you that Shiv was in fact still human.
You nick your finger on something sharp and quickly retract your hand hissing as you look down to see the glimmering emerald of a ring sitting on her finger; a reminder of who you really were to Shiv: someone to pass the time with when her husband the man she chose over you, was gone.
She moves her hands out of your reach.
"You just...keep on hurting me" you whisper out dejectedly through your tears. You felt like you'd never forgive her for coming here and making you experience this all over again.
Sure, Shiv was laying in your bed...in your arms but nothing had changed.
She presses her forehead against yours, and you reach a hand up to touch her cheek, to check if she was still there physically, despite the cavern of circumstances separating you from each other, despite the emotional gap she’d intentionally forged between the two of you.
"I know..." Shiv wobbles out, finally allowing herself to cry openly,
You hated her.
You loved her.
You wished you'd never met her. You didn't quite know how to live your life without her looming presence in it.
With a chaste kiss against your collarbone, she presses her face into the gentle curve of your neck, and you wrap your arms around her to pull her against your chest.
You exhale shudderingly and place a kiss on the top of her head, taking a deep breath to inhale the scent of her coconut shampoo one the last time. Eyes snapping closed you mumble a silent mantra into silky strawberry-blonde locks:
Love me,
Love me,
Love me.
You don’t allow yourself to feel surprised as you wake up the next day and Shiv is gone.
This is one occurrence of many that you have been left reeling by the hurricane that was Shiv Roy, but it still hurts just as much as it did the first time as you feel your heart cracking.
