   Summary

   “Perhaps you should find work elsewhere.”

   Astra had whispered the words, as if they came from someone’s lips other than her own, and when Evelyn had turned to stare at her, she bit back the ache in her chest. This was what they needed, right? To have the stitches holding them together as two halves snipped, so they could be sewn back as a whole?

   “I’m happiest right here, protecting you. I don’t want to go anywhere. I don't want anything to change.” And the conversation was over.

   Or, Astra tries to pry her and Evelyn apart to make room for something more, while Evelyn does everything in her power to stay right where she is.
