Summary
James is at the corner of the desk closest to Francis, looking down at the thinning head of hair. His pulse comes quickly, nerves fluttering. They are at the ends of the earth and it emboldens him, the thought of a court martial, a hanging, so far from them here.
“Do you remember that you called me beautiful?” He asks before he can change his mind.
An incremental nod, and the absence of eye contact. “I - thought I had recalled. Something to that effect.”
------James makes a second visit to his First near the end of Francis's withdrawal, seeking comfort and clarity. Things happen. Part 2 of my True Dark series, on-going.
