Loss of Breath
Characters: Aragorn, Arwen
Rating: PG
Warning: Angst.
The candles are burning down. I see the first lines of ageing cracking your skin.
One day you will be gone from my world.
Was there ever a world without Estel? I wonder. Underneath those lines there is still the shy boy sitting beside me with a heart beating so loud and fast even I could hear it. When I first kissed you, you wanted to run away. We cannot do this, you said. I cannot. But I thought I could. I thought we could.
One day, this won't be our world anymore. But will it be my world then?
