Siri/Julian angst
I'm an angst spree this week B) Siri belongs to @jilljoycearts
It was their last dance - the last dance before she was shipped off to the island.
Maintaining a weak smile, Siri jokingly poked her dear doctor who was watching her carefully. His hands were always reached out to protect her from falling or anything else that might harm her. However, the only thing he couldn't protect her from was the disease that would rip them apart forever - the plague, in all it's red eyed glory and horror. Nevertheless, Siri was with him now, which is what mattered.
"You have dust all over you, what are you? A dust bunny?"
Julian bit his lip, blushing before answering, "I'll be anything to be with you." He leaned down as they twirled together.
"I know." Siri's voice was deep and thoughtful while she spun a stark contrast to her joke made moments ago. "Julian, I love you so much. I - I want to let you know you mean the world to me. You've made the past few months the best in my entire life and I'll always be forever grateful to you because of that. And you've prolonged my life from...you know what."
Looking down, Siri wished and wondered why his happened to her. She supposed, better than Julian - she preferred it this way, anything to protect the light of her life; she knew she'd go through suffering a million years long for him and his safety.
Still, Siri didn't want it to be their last dance.
