Ghost Behind My Eyes

Oh. Hanako, despite the complicated markings that splotched her fur, was a pretty basic girl at heart. Simple and easy to understand, as shallow as a pond and Azure had known her long enough to know what made her tick. It should have been obvious, a ploy to win back her affections and return to her good graces, but his words took her back all the same. Just as if the clocks had turned back she felt a heat flush beneath the pale of her cheeks. It wasn't as if she was affection starved, not any more, but the fact he was giving her a taste of what he should have given her long ago was bitter-sweet. Her ears flicked, a content, almost smug feeling settled into her chest and she wondered if he regretted that day. Whether he'd spent all of his time away regretting pushing her away. It was what he deserved really, even if it seemed as though he was finally coming to his senses.

"I thought about you too, you know. I hated you. It was just so unfair I-" She let out a shuddering sigh and her eyes caught on the heavy bear paws that had viciously torn into her snout. It was a miracle she hadn't gotten a scar. He'd done well in shattering her aloof facade, but things were different. She was different now.

She didn't step any closer, even if she wanted to.

"I'm not the sort to hold grudges." She was. "It's old news."
