and you, you kept us awake with wolf’s teeth.
‘It’s all about love, Rex.’
Shivering again, I stood still. Like a statue. Eyes opened, staring straight at the frozen solid stone. His voice continued, his words almost perfectly sweeping up my shattered soul that lie before him on the ground. He was right, we were just searching for love. Bumbling around like idiots, living, loving, and losing. Growing and writhing in pain all the same. I turned to face him and his bright blue eyes fell into mine gently, hopeful, and loving. He spoke of Tembovu and just at the mention of his name I flinched. He hoped I wasn’t and I only nodded to him, unsure if I felt like ever loving again. The whole thought of it just made my heart bleed.
I blinked slowly to him, taking in every ounce of the words he said. I stepped toward him, close to the point where I reached out for him. Trembling and shivering, wishing to press my cheek into his chest. Wishing to feel his feathers tickle my nose. Wishing to forget about everything. “I want to start over too, Caleb.” I whispered to him. Eyes closing, his body shadowing me from the reflective light off the snow, hiding the blood and bruising. Hiding the broken soul within me. I knew part of me still loved Tembovu, but whether or not he would ever love me back was another story. He was having a child with someone else. I had slept with him after the fact and he never told me. I was shattered. Shattered to the point I wasn’t even sure if Caleb would be able to fix me.
"Talk?"
