@markerlived asked: A comforting smile. @ Ellie from Isaac
It’s the smallest of things. A tremor in her hands, an edge to her actions. She doesn’t even realize the creeping gnawing on her spine until Isaac’s hand covers her own and brings her back to the present. Somehow, he can always tell before her.
Blue-green eyes meet his own and his smile, soft and comforting, eases her shoulders.
“tt’s hard to believe sometimes.” She doesn’t need to put a name to it. He knows what she means. Her hand turns, her fingers interlock with his, and she finally smiles.
They’re allowed this, dammit.
