This one was a request from a guest.

After the war, Clarisse shut everyone out. Chris was the only one who could get through to her, but that was hard for even him.

Right now, he was sitting in he woods with his girlfriend, and trying to talk to her. It wasn't working.

"You know," Chris started "you'll need to talk eventually."

"But why?" Clarisse asked "It won't change the fact that she's gone."

Chris was taken aback by her comment, he'd figured that was the reason she'd been so quiet, but to actually hear her say it was completely different.

He did the only thing he could think of, he pulled Clarisse into his lap and held her. He didn't care that he'd probably get brutally murdered for it later.

It wasn't exactly what I had in mind when I started it, but it turned out all right. Be sure to tell me what you think.
