One Hundred Words

Chess

This is part of my new series called "One Hundred Words". Each chapter will be a snapshot in time based around the prideshipping pairing, all will be exactly one hundred words long. There are a number of reasons that I've started this, it means that I can still do some writing, even with all the exams I have at the moment, the story will also go on indefinitely. I hope you enjoy this series and please leave any criticisms or praises in a review. 


Our eyes meet. There's the same spark, the same friction, the same resistance there always is. But this time there's something more, I can't quite describe it.

I close my eyes but that ice cold blue is burned into my retinas.

Stop it, I tell myself; this is just another game, just another fight. I move a castle forwards.

You move your knight, leaving your proud King exposed.

I ask you what you're doing.

"Isn't it obvious Pharaoh?" Your familiar smirk adorns your lips; "I'm tired of fighting you."

Our eyes clash again. I know what it is now.

Acceptance.
