Fic Update: Olivia Can't Find Her Jutting Ribs Sexy 15/?
Update: Chapter 15 of fic, Olivia Can't Find Her Jutting Ribs Sexy. I appolize, both for the wait and the shortness of this chap. Thank you for bearing with me and for all your lovely reviews.
Alex has stopped noticing which buildings she passes as she continues walking aimlessly. She remembers a while ago passing the sushi restaurant where Olivia and she went on their first actual date. But after she brushed against a woman who wore the same perfume as Olivia, she stopped noticing anything except the rain.
Alexandra is soaked from head to toe, and the small bag she packed earlier is slowing her down. Raindrops run into her eyes and the rain is so hard that Alex struggles to keep moving. She’s exhausted to point of feeling faint. She wishes she could say that she feels numb. She wishes that she didn’t feel the sharp pain in her gut, throbbing with every thought of Olivia. She keeps trying to convince herself that she did the right thing, that this is what’s best for Olivia.
But her mind is cruel. It replays all the moments she felt happiest with Olivia… the moments of safety… the moments of love. She loves Olivia, with every fiber of her being. She is certain that the love she feels for Olivia is the strongest love she could possibly feel. She wishes they could have a storybook love, for that is what Olivia deserves. She misses Olivia so terribly… misses her smell, the warmth of her skin, her arms, her voice… if only she could have Olivia without ever hurting her. She knows that she can’t be what Olivia deserves, so she has to leave, and let someone else who deserves her take her place. She gasps, letting herself finally take a deep breath. As she gasps for air, she starts to cry. She cries angry, hot tears. She starts to feel a chill, goose bumps spreading along her body. She’s not sure if it’s from not eating or the cold rain. She feels more and more nauseous, and she searches for something to lean against.
Just as she starts to slide down the wall, she hears “ALEX!”.
