Re: log: steph/eddie
[Eddie watched the dirty water and dead leaves wash down the side of the hospital. He imagined a nurse or a doctor below, feeling the drop of water and looking up in wonder with him grinning and waving. But, there was no one below. The water slid, the leaves stuck to concrete and glass. Eddie saw detail. He saw small things. He could feel tiny ticking gears changing direction, too. He could smell it.]
Oh, yeah? [The riddled man gave a confused smile she couldn't see. She was feeling desperate, he knew that. The phone call from the night before didn't do much to ease her worry and that was his fault. He ran his fingers along the window, tracing water streaming down the other side with his thumb.] I missed you, too. You know that, right? Do you still like to hear it? [He turned in her arms to look at her. Smirk on his face, eyebrows up. And, she could see how tired he really was there in the natural light. How old he was getting.]
