-11 : Bubble-
"I love you."
It's quiet, almost silent (almost heart-breakingly silent), and the response is at the same decibel. They both stand, stock still, across from each other, not daring to move, not daring to burst the bubble they've created for themselves, but the air is running out.
They wonder if they should suffocate.
"Everything is going to change now." It's louder, and the bubble bursts, sending shards and fragments to rain down on them, piercing and tearing and they can't feel them, because they can't feel anything.
But he can feel this.
"I know." Axel answers, and takes his hand.
I apologize for how abstract this is.
