Everest
Staring into dark eyes and perfectly styled curls, it doesn't occur to Everest to realize just how handsome his friend is, but only to find comfort in the familiarity of his face. 'She died in a car accident.' The paramedic mumbles, and though Mateo already knows this, it's just a way for Ever to get the linguistic ball rolling. "Tonight...at work...there was a car accident." Whereas his voice had been steady before, now it broke and wavered. "A woman died in my arms. She...she looked just like my mother. She..."
Hitching in a breath, Ever presses his teeth together to keep the sob that was trying to rattle itself out of his throat caged, he shakes his head once, and then again and again. 'She was about to get married. She asked....she asked if she would be able to dance on her wedding day..'
