Thimbles fanficflashfic week 20
Prompt: There were two - I picked "Follow Me" by Muse. www. fanficflashfic. blogspot. com
Her candor shocked the hell out of him. He hadn't remembered meeting someone like her before.
She looked past his scars, his messed up leg. She even hung around during those moments he disappeared, or blacked out. Physically he was there, but his mind? Gone.
He came back sagged and wide-eyed. How he managed to seem both shocked and drained was a mystery, though a tiny spark ran through her that he wasn't completely lost.
She stood, offering her hand.
"People will stare."
"Screw them."
"Why are you being so nice to me?"
She laughed then, in spite of hope. "Really? You're seriously asking me that question right now?"
"You're an angel. I'm dead, aren't I?"
He was gone again.
"I'm not an angel, though I am quite flattered you'd think so. I'm alive as much as you, so, just follow me."
"Where?"
Every day was the same routine. "Outside. Fresh air…existence."
"You're very pretty, and nice." Every minute was brand new.
She could tell him she loved him. Pictures of the two of them were tucked away; she so badly wanted to dust them off. Instead, she choked it down and squeezed his hand.
"You're not so bad yourself."
