Summary
When Sal gets a text from Travis in the middle of the night, he knows immediately that something is wrong.
They have spent fourteen months loving each other in secret — in hidden rooms, through deleted messages, in stolen moments carved out beneath the weight of Kenneth Phelps, the church, and everything Travis has spent his whole life surviving. Sal has always promised they will make it out. That if Travis can just hold on a little longer, they will leave Nockfell behind together.
But some nights arrive too late, and some promises are made against forces far crueler than love.
A oneshot about secrecy, fear, blood, grief, and the unbearable weight of being the one left behind.
