un_love_you, #14 – I’m awake and you’re breathing.Summary: I'm lying awake, and you're breathing. McBeth; set sometime after "Love Lasts Forever" (mainly, "The Mortal Cure" never happened).
It’s early in the morning. I’m lying awake, and you’re breathing.
I can hear you outside the door to my apartment – your breathing, steady and regular. Your heartbeat, which I’d recognize anywhere, lets me know it’s you.
I wonder why you’re here.
I wonder when you’ll knock.
And then you do.
And as I always do, always will, I get up and go to answer the door. I have to. Because it’s you. And because the one thing I can no longer bear to hear anymore from outside that door is the sound of your footsteps as you walk away.
