    Summary

    A little peek/drabble continuation of the 'Echoes Beneath' universe, occurring after we last see our Idiots in Love after Chapter 40, and beginning around Chapter 50, as requested by dearest and loveliest reader, as a distraction from current depressing circumstances our Murder Husbands are in.

    "I could be martyred for my religion. Love is my religion and I could die for that. I could die for you. My Creed is Love and you are its only tenet." -Poet, John Keats

    “Missing them only hurts when I realize how happy I am and remember why I shouldn’t be.” Soft snuffling turned brittle. “Sometimes I feel so guilty.”

    “Me too.” Peter kissed a damp hairline, cupping a nape gently, feeling for the chain of a crucifix that now hung on their bedpost on the weeks Elias lost faith. “I owe them my life for bringing me back to you.”

    Hence the long walks. Where I sometimes find you in tears, screaming at God.

    “Will we stay? After.”

    After. What a small word for such a monumental event looming on the horizon.
