Lines Crossed

We were never supposed to end up here.
Not bruised and bloodied, standing under a ruined sky, still aching for each other through everything we never said.
Geno knows how to fight, she's been doing it her whole life. For space. For air. For some kind of peace. But? Sadie the first person who ever made her stop swinging. The first one who looked past the hard edges and called it softness. The first one who stayed.
But love doesn't save you. Not here. Not when everything around you is burning, and loyalty is a death sentence.
Now they're on opposite sides of something neither of them asked for, too far in to turn back, and too tangled up in each other to let go.
