doing something

[unbr8kable]

Who: some kids
Where: the dead zone
When: Day 335, after graduation

[After many a tiny finger food and many more tiny glasses of wine and one overblown and completely not sad at all!!! graduation ceremony, what better place to go than the dead zone? What better thing to do than climb up the giant, golden chain up to the crack in the sky? Sure it burns to the touch, but what's a little more pain on the pile--that's the point of all those tiny glasses of wine, right?

So never mind the slight sizzling sound, nor the uncomfortably familiar odor of burning flesh all the way up. There's a goal at the end; one that--in theory--will make this all worthwhile]

[She tries not to be too greedy as she presses against him, but it's hard--by the time she'd let herself even consider being this close, the heart in his chest had long gone cold and still, and there'd been no point in wanting anything different.

But now--together, like this--it's hard to let the opportunity pass while she has it.]

[He seems to bask in the closeness, the way he always does - nuzzles in nearer and tangles their legs together. The hand in her hair is still drifting back and forth, idle motion, toying softly with the strands]

[She voices a shaky sigh, leaning in further and clinging tight]

[That's fine]

[That's more than fine]

[He doesn't seem to be in a hurry to go anywhere]
