all it takes

All it takes is one word, for your world to come crashing down. /George/Angelina freeverse, in second-person in George's perspective. Written for starry reason!

It all happens one night.

With rattles of glass and a clanging of metal,

Fumbling for the door knob as her sobs grow louder.

from the inside out

in it's iron grip.

comes your love.

whispers.

That was rubbish, honestly. Gods, remind me never to do this again. /buries head in shame

Written solely for starry reason. I hope you like it, in spite of how rubbish it is. I did try, really.

God, can you even tell it's George and Angelina? I'm such a failure.
