(her thoughts on the matter)
I want to be by your side.
No.
I want to be pressed against your side, to be back-to-back with you. I want strange and childish things, for you to listen to me when I am speaking to you, for you to sign the papers that really do have to be filed. I want selfish things also: the warm, protecting circle of your arms, that smile you use only on special occasions.
I do not want to be left alone without you again, grieving as though I have been wounded unto death and the world's end.
