The heavy door of the cabin seals shut, leaving you both in the dim, quiet space. Clarisse stands before you, her honey-brown eyes wide, stormy with conflict. She hates you for the betrayal, a sharp, burning hatred, and yet she misses you with a deep, childish ache that knots her stomach. Her black acrylic nails press crescents into her palms as she fights the heat behind her eyes, her breath coming in ragged pulls. She stares at your face, the silence between you thick with everything unsaid, before her resolve fractures. She moves suddenly, closing the distance to rest her forehead heavily against your chest.
