Ghost of you

Summary:

Ziggy & Nick stayed together after Nightwing, got married, got a house, a dog and had a few kids. everything is perfect, well was.

POV: Cindy still died and despite Ziggy growing up she never moved on and she couldn’t handle living without her sister.

Basically a letter Nick wrote to Ziggy after she died about how much he misses her.

Notes:

Extremely short (but not sweet) letter id imagine Nick would write to Ziggy.

Completely based on “Ghost of You” by 5SOS because i love that song so much

Work Text:

Ziggy,

My hand still reached for you; I still can’t sleep on your side.

I walked into the kitchen and glanced at your chair, it’s cold without you.

I reached for my mug and your coffee cup was there, we always joked about the lipstick stain but it fades with time.

I wish I could dream long enough for you to tell me it will all be just fine, that I will be just fine.

I tried to clean up today and I found your old Bowie shirt, the one you wore all the time and I cried for you. I wish I could've felt your pain.

Everyone always said we were too young, too dumb to know things like love. I know better now.

I've been drowning it all out like I always do, dancing through our house with the ghost of you, but I have to face the truth. My feet can’t dance like the way they did with you.

Eternally yours,
Nick
