Lucy thought she was over the self harm, but the same feelings of relief came rushing back, she hadn't done it in months.
There was a sudden knock on her front door just down the hall from where she was sitting, the door burst open and there she was, Anna. She stood there at the door staring at Lucy, her feet curled in, both hands in their pockets, her hair was long and teased, her beautiful blue eyes danced with thoughts of fear and worry, she walked to Lucy and slid down next to her. Lucy lay her head softly on anna's shoulder as they both stared through the open door. Anna turned her head and placed her hand on lucy's other shoulder giving her one small kiss on her head.
Lucy's breath quickened her heart was pumping, she worried about crying in front of Anna.
" ssshhhh it's time to rest bub"
Lucy moved her head and got comfy just above Anna's chest. She could hear and feel Anna's heart beating, the simple rhythm sung Lucy to sleep.
Lucy woke to the smell of tobacco and perfume, she opened her tired eyes looking up at Anna who was smoking one of lucy's smokes, their eyes locked and Anna released a tiny half smile that made Lucy feel a small amount of joy, which was snapped away as she remember what had happened that night.
"I'm sorry Lucy but I can't hold on anymore,
I feel so weak, so tired.
I do truly love you."
"Are you going to go to the funeral Lucy?"
Lucy looked up at Anna and simply nodded. Anna realized she shouldn't of brought it up.
