I HAVE TO HOLD ON
The way he spoke almost broke her heart. Her heart was shattering at the way he seemed to think she was some spirit here to claim his life. As if she was an angel of death. She let her body sway with him. Sadness blocking out the music that floated on the air. "It was so long ago, but it feels so recent.." She almost whispered the words as she drew herself closer to him.

"I am not a ghost, dear. It is not your time. Not yet." She soothed as she moved closer still. Wanting to touch him. Wanting to take his pain away. "I am real. I am here with you." She felt pain in her chest. Last time they were together, he had joined that raid and never come home.

She had died. Ripped apart by someone she trusted. "Age is a fickle thing, isn't it?" She mused as she aimed to rest her muzzle against his cheek. Breathing in his scent as she shivered. "I have missed you too. I wish I had been here to help you. To protect you from this.. I'm sorry." She felt her eyes water as she pulled away from him. Some wife she had been. they fought and parted ways and now.. Well.. This.
