Silence filled the darkness as Tamsy Caines carried your lifeless body in his arms. Your head rested against his shoulder, hair falling loosely while your arms hung still at your sides.

A faint, broken smile appeared on Tamsy’s face as he looked down at you. His eyes softened, heavy with something he had never shown before.

“You really were… beautiful.” Tamsy Caines murmured quietly, holding you just a little closer even though you would never hear him again.
