Title: Clinging close
Characters: Byakuya/Hisana
Rating: G
Genre: General
When the fog clings close and lovingly to him, Byakuya knows it's her. He knows it like his own bones, the stars in the night sky when everything is too long and dark for sleep. He looks for her in the page-ends of books, in the mirrors he put away after her death. He looks for her in the ashes of his long burnt-out heart, one he denies having, because denial is easier than acceptance. Byakuya knows the fog is her hands and her hair and her lips – pressed against his throat in a way she never did in life.
