An: I know it's short and I'm sorry. I'm also sorry that I haven't updated in the past few days, but I couldn't stop school from starting, and I couldn't keep sophomore year from actually being busy. Who cares though cause I busted this one out, and I'll be making sure to try and write as much as I can. I have the weekends, and if I ever actually stop being tired at 9:30...which probably won't happen. Oh well! Maybe glass will get boring and I'll get ideas, maybe I'll come home and go into a frenzy. I can't tell ya, but I promise that I won't leave you hanging...for terribly long. :P
You do this every time.
So here's to another banner year,
We've crossed that thin line,
Don't try to hold us here.
If for just this once you'd think of us,
I hope you're happy with yourself.
-NJ Legion Iced Tea (A Day To Remember)
My hands around her waist, her scent invading my senses, her lips under mine…never had I ever felt such perfection. Our kiss was wrong; depending on how exactly you looked at it; but for me if felt so right. Temperance Brennan was a whole other matter. She seemed to melt in my arms, but we both knew that meant nothing, and I was left to only pray and hope for the best.
The line that I had set so many years ago seemed to diminish over time; the winds and rains of our growing relationship weathering that 'line' to a simple scratch between the picture of the perfect life that we could have…the perfect life that I can show her.
But alas that scratch was enough, and she pushed away; her hands on my chest as tears streamed down her face. I could hear the catch in her throat, and could feel my own tears building from deep in my heart, but all of the words I meant to say never came out.
I could have shown her that this line that we have has been made transparent, and that the moment I ever concocted it was a mistake. I could have begged her, pleaded her, got down on my knees and asked that she think of us…being us, instead of us, being partners. I could have told her that we were so much more than partners, and had been since the day we first met, but as her crystalline tears trekked down her porcelain skin, and I heard the sounds of my breaking heart echo in my ears, I knew that ship had sailed, and I was left to wait for her once again.
For her trust, for her love, for her heart.
I hope you're happy with yourself…
