A Beautiful Death || Alex + Sparks
He scratched at his scar again, unsure what to say at her flustered face, it almost made him snort. “Sorry, but you’re really quiet. It reminds me of myself a bit.” Though not too much. “I used to keep my problems to myself, but then I learned that that’s really unhealthy.”
Alex sat back, “I suppose. I dropped out of school because of it, though I was a shit student anyway, basically if I could go back I would do a lot of things differently.”
Then a sigh left him, “Honestly this is probably the best situation that’s happened to me, I don’t have to sell myself or my skills, but there’s too many downsides to this as well.” He finally voiced what haunted him sometimes.
Sparks smiled at him, still silent. This was something that usual for her. Silence was a comfort for her, and it used to be hard to find but in this world it was everywhere all at once. She enjoyed that she could be anything like him.
“I never really had anyone to tell them to, so i just got used it…”
She trailed off.
“I guess I don’t know how to share my problems or identify what my problems are…”
She extended her finger tips observing her short fingernails
If she could go back she’d do everything if she knew this was where she’d end up. She would have taken a lot more self defense. She would have stocked up on guns, but then again she never did end up going back to her home.
Sparks curled up her fingers to form a fist.
“That’s how life is, upsides and downsides.” She gave him another small smile before yawning.
