her hands rest in his grip , palms a clutch maybe a little too tight , waterline brimming with unshed tears . swallow them , act normal , release the breath you hadn’t realized you were holding . mind whirs with all the grief of a broken heart , of watching a lover die at the hands of your friend , stature of strength cracking ‘neath the weight . she does her best to pretend that she’s okay for charlie’s sake ––– he doesn’t need to see her fall apart once again ––– but sometimes the hole in her chest gets the best of her . ❛ i don’t know , ❜ tongue frets , head shaking . ❛ maybe ––– maybe he doesn’t want to see me . ❜
