Now I think that it always ran deeper...
Dudes.
I wanted Rob, dammit. I had never let myself think that before, not one time in all the months since we stopped talking, no matter how tired I got or how late at night it was....I would have sold a limb to have Rob there for just one instant, raising a sardonic eyebrow at me behind O'Kelly's back, pointing out blandly that the swap would never work because the dead girl had been pretty. For a vicious second I could have sworn I smelled his aftershave.
This floored me. I started reading and I was really excited and I was fully on board with the idea of Cassie without Rob because that relationship was pretty bad for her in a few different ways and she's an interesting character anyway. And so far I'm totally into it and the writing is just as beautiful* as In the Woods. But, well, I miss them, and all it took was a paragraph.
*To wit - I used to think I sewed us together at the edges with my own hands, pulled the stitches tight and I could unpick them any time I wanted
Le sigh.
THANKFULLY there is now FIC that I can read! *dances merrily!*
