six months no calls. chase & faye.
She stood in the lounge of a house that was not hers, although maybe it could of been if she had just stayed, if she had chosen just once to remain in one place and embrace a life that she was sure was not made for her. She had been carved out of wood and had turned into many things but none of them had ever became a person that was able to stay put, to live beside him and be anything more than a passing reminder of the love they would always hold. She wanted it to make her sad but it didn’t, because she hoped that he too knew, there was always a reason, that she felt it was beyond her control.

Standing at the kitchen island, she held a mug of coffee that she had made herself. Brown hair was messy and loose, her clothes were shaggy and badly fitting. She listened for the door to unlock and when he walked through, she didn’t even budge from her leaning position, lowering her mug only, “Welcome home, lover,” she spoke lowly, ignoring the fact it had been over three months since she had spoken to him last and she had not asked for an invitation to show back up, “I made you a hot chocolate.”
