Rating - PG
Running between realities, sometimes... I think I made you up. A love to hold in the dark and a love to dream upon when days grow hard. But here you are, in a storm - not of snow, but of emotions - and you are so real.
You are so real, so beautiful and raw. And I want to grab onto you. And I want to sink into the ground, anything to escape the pain ahead.
And I want to love you like you deserve to be loved, too.
Natalia feels the fabric of a wedding dress in her fingers, working over the material in worry and frustration. Olivia never stops talking, a rush of wounded words that get carried away with the frozen wind. And tears turn to ice, no longer heated by a body full of so much wanting. They just can't seem to break the cycle, no matter the devotion or the dedication.
And they want to love each other... like they deserve to be loved...
I ask you about 'us' and you tell me there is no 'us'. I want to stop you from pushing me and pulling me. But my anguish trips me up again. It leaves me standing here, drifting and dying.
You are so gone, so broken and foolish. And I want to kiss you. And I want to turn back time, to try and stop all our lies.
And I want to love you, dear God, I want to love you like you love me, too.
Natalia watches the gray day shake out the nighttime and wanders home. She moves in and out of rooms, holding onto a symbol of marriage with her hands. In the dark, in the space that Olivia used to call her own... Natalia falls to the floor and cries.
She weeps over mistakes made and those yet to come. She weeps over everything.
Natalia wants to love Olivia like the woman deserves to be loved.
Sometimes, I think I made this all up.
But here we are, you and I, us...
And I want to love you, Olivia.
Just let me catch up.
