Awesome piece Flis... Such a raw deep view of Naomi... Trembling between hope and deep despair... Couldn't get more real <3 :)

Kudos also to L for the artwork & fan mix :)

Can't believe I've forgotten to reply to y'all!

Thank you so much - I just felt it was one of the parts of S4 that needed a bit more coverage. Plus, the mix that L made was totally inspiring and it made this story happen.

Thanks for reading love! Glad you liked.

The good kind of fire where it starts in your stomach and then spreads out, all the way... just because of one fucking smile, you're warm all over, all the time.

But then you realise that you can't stop the heat and you're burning from the inside out... and you just want it to stop, just for a second, so that you can feel the cold again, so that you can breathe your own air.

Except... except when you do that, when you stop for a second and let her warmth leave you, you'll realise that you can never get it back again....you know you'll never be warm again

The least you can do is figure out a way to wait for her. Again. For as long as it takes

Flis, you destroy me in all the right ways.
So good to see you again <3

Hey babe - sorry for such a late response. Fail!

Thanks so much for reading and for your comments. This one sort of flowed out, which was kind of cool. Glad it hit the spot :)

Big ♥

So sorry for the late response!!

Thanks so much for your comments. And it's always great to hear the lines that particularly touched you.

And, dude, you make me blush! I miss writing these guys, you know? They're what keep me warm inside :)

Thanks again, you rock.

Oh babes, this is so beautiful and yet painful at the same time. I love the way you've captured Naomi, completely stripping her down to the bare minimum. Of course Emily knew she was being stalked, she is a stalker herself after all. I didn't expect Emily to react the way she did outside the club, even going so far as to grab Naomi's hand. It was so emotional, so full of confused love, and yet it also warmed my heart.

Great one!

Sorry for the late response!

Hehe, like Emily wouldn't know! She's basically the master!

I really wanted to figure out how things would have lead to Emily staying even whilst she was going a bit bonkers. Like, Emily doesn't want any of those girls, obviously, but she's trying to regain power. So in that moment when she finds Naomi outside she's saying 'Yes, I fucking saw you' but also 'I love you, but I don't want to, so I'm going to be in control of this right now'.

Anyway, I could ramble on. My point is: thank you. Muchly :)
