what doesn’t kill you leaves disfiguring scars. what doesn’t kill you fills you with paralyzing self—hatred. what doesn’t kill you makes you afraid for the rest of your life. what doesn’t kill you might make you kill them.

“I’ll be happy with 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠, so long as it does not make my head hurt.”

She smiled up at him, nodding as they approached the theatre, chewing the inside of her cheek nervously, an uneasy feeling entered her body and it made her shudder.

“It’s awfully quiet…”

[M͟I͟C͟H͟A͟ @MYSTICALVOIDD]

He chuckled softly while watching him, it made her blush lightly seeing past the glasses, his timid ways — he was truly handsome beneath it all and the personality drew her in.

“Ahh, you’re right, we could totally do that too, that will be fun.”

“You into the whole scary movie genres or are you more of a thriller slash romance loving genre?”

Micha teased as she watched him, chuckling softly at his response.

“Haha, really? That’s okay, so am I, so it’ll be a pretty fair and friendly competition, wouldn’t you say?”

“I’d say all we have is time— and we can totally go to theatre and see what’s playing, hopefully they have something neat—“

She offers a smile and gently squeezes his hand, smiling as she uses her thumb to gently soothe his hand hoping it helps with the anxiety.

She leaned in closer to Dwight than before, breathing became slightly faster as she bit her lower lip.

“I’m literally so nervous, for no reason…”

[M͟I͟C͟H͟A͟ @MYSTICALVOIDD]

“I’d love too, I mean, I’d love to go out and spend more time with you, go out on a date and see what it’d be like….”

She nodded as she watched him inch closer, she hadn’t felt physical touch in what felt like forever, it felt foreign.

She listened and although it truly seemed like it was entering one ear and out the other, she was truly intent on his words, though having just experienced a trial last night without Dwight and dying had her feeling shaky and timid.

“Thank you…you make me feel okay….”
