*Adam lays on Alanna's bed, in the dark, in the silence. Hands folded behind his bed, he stares at the ceiling, listening to time pass.

...it is a controllable thing, but it is never gone...

Hours flow into minutes flow into seconds, and still she's not back, and he's left alone

in the dark

with his thoughts. He likes the dark, really, he craves it. But the dark is a breeding place for those

...parts of you that you have no control over...

creatures that would devour you whole.*

One can only hope.

*She smiles at the kiss and turns over on her side, away from him. But she doesn't let go of his hand.*

*No.

No, I'm not. Nothing is okay. I've mucked everything up.

I should tell Jon. He doesn't deserve this.


Biting her lip, she nods.*

Should be. You?

*She smiles, leaning back against him and settling down a bit. A few more tears escape, but she's very quiet about it all. Practice.*

Good night, Adam. I'm sorry... I wish I knew what to say.

*Alanna nods. He's there, and that's enough. She covers his arm with hers, thinking. Her eyes drift shut, but it's a long time before she falls asleep.*
