---------- it’s on her lips automatically, you don’t have to make it up to me, but this time she doesn’t say it. maybe it’s because right now she’s feeling a little more raw than usual. even if she can understand why he left. and she forgave him long before even going to get him. for that first week all of her pain had been erased. but lately it stings. echoes of that pain coming to haunt her. dreams where he’s gone again. realizing that she’s holding him a little tighter for fear of him disappearing again. or fear that this is all a d e l u s i o n she’s living in. one she concocted just to get through all of that ache.
softly she laces her fingers with his, feeling only comfort in the cool of his skin. ❝ you’re making it up to me, right here and now, by staying. ❞ there is more truth to that than anything. time is what they’ll need for this wound to heal. and thankfully he’s got an eternity ... and hopefully she will too soon enough. ❝ but if you really feel the need to do something ... we could always take a little day trip to portland, i’ve been wanting to go to powell’s books for a while now ... ❞ she adds teasingly.
