    Summary

    Travel and tell no one,
    Live a true love story
    And tell no one,
    Live happily
    And tell no one,
    People ruin
    Beautiful things.

    Summary

    Graveyard mud, heavy and dark, clinging to a stained and torn suit. One shoe missing, a leg bent awkwardly and blood staining a bare foot.

    Milk white skin beneath the mud, black hair hanging in muddy clumps around his ears. Blue eyes staring back at him, animal-bright and dilated in the brief moment before he flinches back from the light with a cry of pain that stabs through Jason to the soul.

    His shaking hand closes around the flashlight before he can even think about it, cutting off the piercing beam and letting it spill out in shards between his fingers. For a petrifying moment as his eyes readjust, he’s sure that when he looks again, there will be nothing there.

    “Tim?” he whispers.

    The lean and ragged figure, tiny, god he’s so small, lowers his hands away from his face, away from his eyes wide and glittering almost silver in the moonlight.

    Hands, mud-covered and torn. The red of his shredded fingernails is sickeningly dark in the broken light.

    He’s vomiting before he even feels the bile making its way up his throat.

    He should’ve seen it coming when Tim turned on him, should’ve known when that stave hit his knees that Tim had made his choice.

    Summary

    Jason swings with a messy right hook and Tim doesn’t even try to block.  He lets it land, snapping his head to the side under the force with a shudder.  Jason grabs him by the jaw with his left hand and yanks Tim’s face back so that he’s looking up at him again.

    “Come on baby, you can do better than this, I know you can.”

    Jason punches him again, and again, turning his face back each time so he can take the full blow.  There’s blood on his knuckles, pouring from Tim’s nose— Jason knows it looks worse than it feels.  When he swings again Tim catches his fist, throwing an elbow and trying to slip out from underneath him.  

    “Oh there you go, honey, yeah.  Let’s go.”
