Thank you very much cherrixwolf for your review! I've always liked that quality in writing and I'm very happy that it worked out. This one is more of an angst-filled one. I blame watching Cardcaptor Sakura the Movie 2.
She watched the darkness form around him and felt her heart break. Not a quiet, soft tear, but a brutal ripping that left her breathless and stunned.
Her fingers trembled and she wondered if she would begin to bleed from the inside out.
After everything, after all that had happened, it came down to this. She struggled to keep herself together, because she wasn't a baby. Because she had gone through this before, dammit. She had felt her heart be broken before.
Right? She couldn't remember. She blinked and felt only disinterest as a tear rolled down her cheek. She was trying to remember if she'd felt this ache deep within herself that seemed to widen every moment he stared at her with those blank eyes. They weren't amber anymore, she thought. They were a dead and dull gold.
She swore she heard that little heart (for it was no longer hers) shatter all over again, and again, and again until her crying became louder.
The dawn broke.
