[This wasn't really what I was expecting from this prompt (that is, angsty Fever!McBeth), but hey, at least I wrote something, right?]
I tumble into the cool water, grateful for even that reprieve from the heat of the sun. It’s not cold, not the sub-zero my body craves, but it’s a start.
There’s something else I’m craving, too. I try not to think about it, try not to listen to Leni’s heart beating fast and loud in the other room, but it’s impossible.
And now she’s opening the door, coming in, trying to help, putting herself in danger.
Bending my self-control further than I’d have thought I could stand.
For her sake, her baby’s, and my own, I pray it doesn’t break.
