the room had just been so LONELY lately, and she couldn’t help but know why. she knew that it was because she sent alexander away, but i mean, wouldn’t ANYONE in her position do that? but when he came in, and when he said that he was scared–– she knew that it was a LIE. she was married to him, she knew the sound of his voice when he was scared, and this wasn’t it. it wasn’t as shaky as it should be, he DIDN’t have that look on his face, he was lying to her. but, she couldn’t help but realize how MUCH she missed him.
❛ it’s very cold tonight, i COULD use the extra warmth. ❜ but, instead, she stood up, her night gown hanging loosely on her body, and she walked over to him, her hand reaching up to touch his now PALE face. the life was drained out of him, and she knew why, she was that same way. she loved him dearly, she still ACHINGLY did. ❛ i KNOW that you’re lying, alexander. but, you may still sleep with me tonight. i love you, darling, you out of ALL people should know that. ❜
