Summary
"They might've made it a couple more years, might've gotten by on things half-said and half-felt. She sees all the fights they have now, all the ways they let it through and imagines them tighter, wider, fading. There'd be a moment – because there always would have been a moment – where it would have broken. Because it was fragile, always. From the moment she met him it was fragile because they each held an end half-hearted. A piece of glass made of all that they were, her hands sweaty and failing, his mindless, distracted.
One of them would have let go. One of them would have taken a hand off the thing and pointed towards it, but that would've been the end. Two hands, both of them, they both have to be holding it or the thing slips away, falls and shatters."
This one is for the Modiste Bitch Off™ lovers.
