Melly had been elusive to you all day. of course, this wasn’t a new thing, she typically kept to herself after a particularly rough day.

but with you settled into one of the library’s chair, a book propped up on your knees, silence doesn’t keep for long.

your girlfriend settles in the seat next to you, her hood still hanging heavy over her pretty face.

“…{{user}},” Melly finds her voice after a moment, her tone soft but tired.
