No Hand on the Reins

KIADA i wish that i could say, i am a light that never goes out. As he speaks, he laughs and winks to her and she offers a rare grin in response. “Okay, so one out of how many?” She retorts, snorting. “Maybe if we make it out you can come find me.” She leaves it open ended – she doesn’t mind the company. In fact, she finds him entertaining. If they weren’t waiting for the end of their lives, perhaps it would’ve been a much better conversation, over food and drinks. Ah, but beggars can’t be choosers. He settles in, touching but not overly touching, and she quietly breathes deeply. “Yeah.” She responds, shrugging lightly but just enough to bump into him slightly. She rolls onto her side and uses her arm as a pillow, moving a bit closer to him and leaving him room for if he wants to move closer too before she closes her iceberg gaze. “It’s been a pretty nice last night, at least for me.” Kiada mumbles before yawning and settling in to sleep. but i flicker from time to time.
