one.
Her fingertips stretched out before her, grasping at the air where his hand used to be. The smile on her face faltered, but never faded, as her feet carried her towards his shadow. He was walking away, but she was desperate to get him back, to open her heart and have it pour out in front of him. She reached his side, her arms slipping around his waist, and he turned, wrinkles forming within his forehead.
His mouth morphed itself into a smile, but not one that she recognized. His hands slipped around her wrists, pulling them off of him and feeling her arms go limp. He heard a sob escape her throat and she shook, trying so hard to hold it in. He slipped away, the shadows surrounding him, leaving her alone.
Just as she always had been.
