Challenge 12: Shadows

Feb 08, 2007 22:45

Gwen caressed his hand again and stared into his face. The stillness of it. The deep dark shadows around his eyes. Around his closed eyes. The silent, smileless mouth. I haven’t tired of following you. But I cannot go where you are leading, now.

She thought about being held by Rhys, tonight. True, she had got what she wanted. But oh the price… she felt she had sold one brilliant, awesome, wonderful man for one good, steady, wonderful man… and the exchange seemed unfair, for there wasn’t supposed to have been a price at all…

I believe in you. Still.
