In the waves I've lost every trace of you

i think i'm leaning a bit too much into this whole religious imagery with kuras but oh well

NAME:

RINGTONE: 

PICTURE: 

LAST TEXT RECEIVED: 

Their relationship wasn’t built on anything conventional. No flowers. No sweet nothings. It was earned, carved out with grit and tension, mutual respect forged through conflict rather than kindness. And still… there was always that edge. A layer of suspicion that never left. Maybe that’s what made it so addictive. So damn thrilling.

“Dangerous?” Rafe echoed, voice smooth like aged scotch and just as biting. He knew what he was - and he knew she wasn’t any safer. Chloe had a kind of fire he couldn't ignore. Where he burned hot and fast, all fury and impulse, she was the slow spark - patient, deadly - the kind of flame that waited until you were close enough to ignite. And if she ever decided to light that match... well, even he wouldn’t walk away unscathed.

“Come on,” he murmured, gaze locked on hers as his smile twisted into something darker, hungrier. “Tell me it doesn’t get your heart racing, sweetheart.” The brush of her lips against his cheek as he turned, closing the distance, left barely a breath between them. The air felt stretched thin, humming like a live wire. The tension wasn’t new - it had always been there, coiling tighter with each encounter, each near-miss of something they never quite named. But this? This was something else. Static in the air. Fire in the blood. Every heartbeat was a countdown to something they had both once refused to start, to see who would blink first. Even now, neither of them had moved. That was the point. The game. They weren’t the soft, lingering type. Every glance, every touch was calculated - a challenge wrapped in chemistry. And neither of them liked to lose. In this breathless standoff, their eyes were locked, studying, calculating. Waiting. There was little trust here - only tension, sharp and intoxicating. It made everything feel alive.

His gaze dips down to her lips, her neck, and hers follows suit, tracing the line of his nose and his jaw with her eyes, carved sharp and handsome. More angular than the men she's often worked with in the past. That, too, gets her mind racing with thoughts she shouldn't have about him, but they've come too far now, she's seen his change, and where has Nate been these last few years? Sam? Not calling her at 3am with stupid ideas that she latches onto for the sheer thrill of the hunt.

Rafe, though. He's saved in her phone now. She looks at his texts and emails. She answers when he calls.

He looks back into her eyes, their gazes locked. Her breath is shallow, as if the simple act of interrupting the warmth of his breath on her lips would shatter the moment. he's so close, it would be easy to simply shift a half centimeter forward against him and close that gap between them that barely even exists. Stubbornness disguised self-control keeps her hypervigilant and she stays almost perfectly still, looking back into his eyes, wondering if he can read the honesty in hers. Whatever guard was up - is up - is exposed in how she looks at him.
