Every Mistake

The silence was not what made her feel that tension between them, it was what she wanted more of the she didn't receive. Was she not good enough for him? He had said she was beautiful, she had settled for only his lips but it made her feel like what he told her was a lie. She couldn't linger on it, she just put her paws in front of her and left him with the emotions she showed others. Not the content, lustful ones he found in the back of Lazuli Falls.

They moved farther down into the cavern, Artorias had called her name but it seemed by that time they were too far into the cavern without knowing of the properties that it possessed.
