ghost in the back of your head
--
His heartbeat is a constant, steady thrum beneath her fingertips. Da-dum. Da-dum. She carries the sound with her every day; when she rides out to the other ships, when she talks to Ben and when she is alone in her cot beside him wishing for his arms around her. He is always with her, his noise is always with her even though he's been quiet these past four years.
She's grown. She ain't a girl now. She ain't never been a girl but now boys, and they are boys not men like Todd, she grew up with stare at her. They've talked to her, they've approached her but she's as far off now as their home. She ain't kissing no boys, there's only one man she wants to kiss and he's sleeping, dreaming of other things. She wants him to wake up.
"Todd," She whispers in his ear softly. And she's brushing his hair from his face. It's getting too long, chin covered in stubble and she ain't (isn't Viola) sure she likes it. It scratches when she kisses his cheek and she kisses him often, so he knows- so he knows she's always with him. There ain't no other. Just Todd. "Oh, Todd."
She climbs into his bed- their bed- his bed and presses her face against his shoulder. She moves her hand across his chest, feeling for his heartbeat before she sighs in relief. Da-dum. Da-dum. That joyful sound.
She wants to tell him to wake up but he's stubborn. Won't do nothing she tells him. Not even when she effing screams at him to wake. Not when she cries. Not even when Ben drags her out because she ain't in control anymore. It's hard to wait, it's harder even now but she does it. She waits. She'll always wait for him. He's coming. He's coming for her. She just has to wait. She has to be patient.
Da-dum. Da-
"Todd?" She gasps, sitting up feeling for his heartbeat frantically. "Ben! Ben!"
And she's screaming. And she can't feel it anymore. And-
"Viola?"
That sound. That joyful sound.
Todd.

can you kneel before the king
---
He is hard muscle and cold skin. She can feel his strength in even the softest, gentle touches as he caresses his hand down her spine. He could snap it if he wants to, sometimes she thinks he does want to. He is hard but she is harder, hiding beneath shy, submissive glances when she is anything but that. It is a neccesary pretence.
He is stronger than her, stronger than all of them but she can manipulate him, use him like she's used others. She is the first vampire, female vampire, to forge her own house. She'll play him, play at being the submissive, weak, sweet Catholic girl she used to be but for what? A chance, a hope at a better life out from underneath the other houses with her brother. He's the only thing that matters.
"Danica," he groans her name, burying his head against her neck. Ugh, disgusting thing. She hides it beneath a moan as she arches her body against his. A chance. A hope. She doesn't love him, she doesn't feel anything for him. He's just her pawn.
"Oh, oh god Drake." Danica moans. Staring up, Danica rolled her eyes at the cameras, knowing he's watching her. The things she did for love.
