“What happened to you?”
“Don’t leave me now.”
“I love you.”
“We’ve lost each other.”
“You don’t understand what you’ve done to me. What you mean to me.”
“How are we going to fix this?”
“It’s time.”

Four boys feeling, for once, older in spirit than in years, settle into the same living room couches they occupied when their journey began. Looking back on those early moments together, they feel like strangers. Maybe even souls can’t stand the test of time.
The boy with the green hair twists his pinky ring.
The curly-haired boy taps his feet.
The boy with the quiff snaps his bracelets against his wrist.
The black-haired boy cracks his knuckles.
Twist. Tap. Snap. Crack. Even their silence has static.
Finally, the black-haired boy speaks up. “How did we get here?”

So…if you are very confused, I understand. Bear with me, and I promise it will all come clear :)
Basically, we have this Interlude, which will be followed by four shorter chapters uploaded over the next four days. They’re going to be a little bit different (stylistically) from a normal RtS chapter, just to warn you ahead of time. And then we go back to a normal schedule and normal chapter style for at least one more chapter and an Epilogue. And…that is the plan!
A massive apology for my disappearance from the face of the earth. More on that on the blog.
Hope you guys had a good week! I missed you like crazy. Life’s no fun without the 5SOSfam.
