Avaren;
"I need you." I cry as my grip on her tightens.
I sound pathetic, but I do not care.
What can I do without her? I… She's all I have. I have no one else. Nothing else. No light, no joy, no peace… She's the only thing that's been keeping me afloat. She can't just leave me.
It… It's not something I can accept!! How… How do you talk to someone one moment, and a few hours later, they're just gone???
"I can't do this without you." I breathe.
Her scent still lingers in her hair beneath the blood… Benath the grief… It's still there. Familiar, warm… Home.
"You can't die," I whisper again, "Not after everything. There's so much we've yet to do." I cry bitterly as my body shivers.
The room gives me nothing back, and I shut my eyes tighter. I press my forehead against hers desperately.
