there were so many things running through her brain it was giving her a real headache this time. she closed her eyes and let out a breat, a puff of smoke following along after it in contrast to the bitter coldness of both the weather, and the vibe between the two. while normally she would sit here all day until spiderflight left, wanting the last laugh and being rather stubborn, she stood up. she gave one last glare to spiderflight before turning around and making the motion to leave. |
the last look that fallingheart gave her was enough to shatter spiderflight's split heart into tiny pieces as the molly turned to leave. spiderflight liked having the last laugh, it was something she enjoyed and took pride in having. but this was different. it was bitter, not the slightest bit sweet. it pained her to see fallingheart walk away with a heated glare rather than challenge in her eye. the molly opened her mouth to say something, anything. 'wait! i'm sorry!' she so desperately wanted to scream, dive across the chilling waters and chase her down. she felt betrayed as if fallingheart's reaction making her feel guilty wasn't necessary or something that wasn't called for. but it was, and deep down she knew that. how dare fallingheart walk away when spiderflight felt regret and wanted to express how she felt sorry. but fallingheart wasn't allowing that.
" so... " she sighed, " same time tomorrow? " it was a joke, to try and make herself feel better, but it felt just as unfulfilling as watching the molly turn and walk away without so much as a snarky remark. somehow that made it burn even worse. her voice was a mutter and sounded almost kit-like in manner.
spiderflight had shrunk, ears pinned down in shame with her tail between her legs. it suddenly felt very cold, colder than it had been before. she was shivering. with a shuddering sigh, she turned, reluctantly, and started back towards her own camp. there was this puffy, choking feeling was stuck in her throat that she wasn't familiar with. it scared her. she needed to talk to someone.
