Little Nulla adoration snippet to celebrate Halloween with :)
“Sorry?” Nulla’s void form started to shift before your eyes as he recalled his old face.
“You are beautiful, Nulla.”
You spoke with the reverence he had only heard in prayers — none of which were directed at him before. Your gaze followed the swirling patterns the void drew out in the air like smoke which was picked up by a gust of air. Nulla froze in place as you took a couple of steps, closing the short stretch between the two of you.
If he needed to breathe, he would have forgotten how to.
If you had to describe your lover now, you would recall Van Gogh’s Starry Night or Rembrandt’s Night Watch.
And then you would throw all these comparisons away because no work of art could truly encapsulate the vision of picturesque idyll himself who stood right before you. You watched with trepidation as his darker than night itself features shifted, changed hue, giving way to the opaline blues and purples. You watched the dance colors on the canvas of his flustered face as Nulla found himself not simply lost for words, but utterly stunned by your display of adoration towards the form he perceived less desirable.
You reached out your hand in an attempt to grasp at the ethereal form of the one whom you love most dearly.
He didn’t dare move, afraid of scaring you away.
Yet, when the tips of your fingers finally reached featureless void, Nulla grabbed your wrist and leaned into your touch. The crushing weight of this wretched world felt like nothing more than a tiny spec of dust on the shoulder pad of his vest. Your sincere smile took away the years of torment. Your loving gaze made him forget the hatred he felt towards those who wronged him. Your warmth melted away the ice within the gazes he threw at this universe.
Your love gave him the point for existing.
