Hi!! ❤️
Just thought I'd pop here to say that I'm chipping away at 'What Remains' AND 'Like a Prayer' whenever I can! Life has been busy, but things are slowing down, which means I'll have better headspace and time to carve out to be creative :)
I'm hoping to post one of them (but let's hope for both!) very soon ❤️
For now, here are little snippets from my drafts (which might/prob will still be tweaked)!
----
What Remains:
He stepped out into the corridor, officially out of his self-imposed hiding. Ears strained for the sound of footsteps, voices, her, as he got closer to her door. It was open just a smidge. He swallowed thickly and knocked softly.
“Bee?”
The door creaked open wider from the touch, and he tentatively stuck his head in. The light flooded the room, over the scattered pots of her trailing plants, an old jumper draped over the back of her chair. The scent of violets and something very her clung to the air.
But she wasn’t there.
The only sign from last night was *his* shirt, thrown at the top of her hamper. That did nothing to calm his nerves or release any of the tension collected in his chest.

Like a Prayer:
"Well," he states, hands sliding into the pockets of his cassock, "you didn't burst into flames or make my church explode. Couldn't have been that bad, right?"
I can't help the grin that tugs at my mouth, grateful for the familiar but new rhythm of banter we made together. "Ah, there's still time for that." And I rise from the pew, moving toward him.
“Damn.” His laugh is warm and makes my stomach do stupid, silly jumps. "Haven't converted you yet, then?"
"Not even close," I smooth my dress with my palms and take a step closer, knowing that my lips are curving into a smirk. "Why? Plan to baptise me, Father?"
I’m going to hell.
