Love Her For Both of Us // CaitVi // Arcane // wlw
11 parts Ongoing Vi wasn't looking for anything.
Her late night café shifts were quiet and predictable. The same faces. The same city lights.
Then Evelyn started showing up.
She never said much. Never touched her coffee. Always stared at the skyline like it meant something only she could see.
Vi tried not to notice, but Evelyn lingered in her thoughts. She was calm, distant, but not cold. Familiar in a way that didn't make sense.
Vi told herself it didn't matter.
But she found herself waiting for the quiet footsteps at closing time. For the silence between them. For the questions she wasn't ready to ask.
She didn't know it yet, but Evelyn was only the beginning. There was someone else waiting. Someone she could be with. Someone who could love her back.
