A Gaping Hole Where My Heart Should Be
Vipera

Viper didn't move, didn't say anything as it once was between them. Her eyes looked up at Chimera as the kill was made, and he was grabbing her in his arms. She had been more forgiving in this afterlife, it wasn't like she was alive. She couldn't change the way things were between them no matter how badly she wanted to. But she couldn't dwell on that hate she had for him on to the day she died. Chimera meant more to her than anyone could really know. Her years of solitary made him more to her than he knew. She embraced him back, not much unlike her in life but Chimera was not as he was. This raw state he was in was something that she couldn't but never would tell another soul. It was a way she had never seen him before but one she could also feel and know. She didn't have emotions up here, but she did here in Chimera's arms. Her cheek pushed gently into his head as he found the plush surface of her chest. There were not tears, not for now. But they threatened to fall from her as well. She had lost so much through her life, and in the end the ultimate loss. Chimera had given her the only thing worth living for, surviving was not enough as was all she knew in her younger, and also most of her years. He had given her love and he had given her Cerberus, as much as she knew she wasn't what she could be for either of them. With a gentle squeeze around his neck, she responded, "I miss you too." Not just because she was dead and all alone here, but she missed him before her death. It was known. But she couldn't be with him. "I wish things could have been different. I wish you could have been different. I wish I could have been different." It was equal parts what they wanted for their lives that kept them apart, it was never meant to be for them. She wouldn't put anymore blame and hurt on him here. Viper wanted to be in Aliana's place now, maybe she would have been different then. Living most nights beside him and raising Cerberus together. He could have made her better than she was. It was meant to be this way because in the end she would have never been happy, and there may have been a time where she lashed out that he would be taking her life instead. "Chimera" -- "Viper"
