Forbidden
“I’ve been writing for a while now and my hand shakes from exhaustion. I feel him over my shoulder; he’s watching me even as I write. Death is tracing icy patterns on my spine and his touch leaves me uncertain and questioning all the decisions I’ve ever made in this life. I find myself missing my Sarah with each brush he makes against me, if I close my eyes I can see her beloved face. Right now I can tell you each and every happy memory we’ve ever made as well as all the sad ones. Because you’re... such a cynical bastard I know you’ll probably say it’s simply the opium making me hallucinate. But I know better. It’s a sign. She’s waiting for me, there, on the other side, and that’s a comfort… They’d been on the island close to two months and had fallen into a sort of routine. Those first few painful days after their argument Jocelyn had been uncharacteristically stiff with him. She’d started talking to him again by the fourth day but only in impersonal, ladylike tones that made his skin crawl.MoreLess
