My first actual drabble. Actually, not a lot to be excited about. Just something that popped into my head from the first phrase, which came from--well, I have no idea. I think it's original, inspired by some movie I saw somewhere. Been floating around for a while. Meant to be Light musing at the end of the series. Obviously spoilers. LLight.
We finally fell, I guess. We always knew we would. "Happily Ever After" wasn't really for us. I saw that crash and burn coming. Some nights, when we were sleeping, in the place between nightmares and reality, I could even feel the heat of that fire, reaching for me. I was waiting for it, biding my time. Maybe he saw it in my eyes, sometimes. I don't know if he ever realized what was going to happen the way I did. He was too simple, too able to be caught up in whatever small pleasures the moment offered. Genius indeed.
