MAFIA: DEFINITIVE EDITION  ↳  Chapters 9-12 // 20

WIP Wednesday

the lovely and amazing @electriicfleur tagged me for this one so i decided to post a lil snippet of memories of the west.  maybe from the next chapter or the one after that... maybe it won’t make it in at all.  i’m not sure just yet.  but here it is:

Some dark clouds came creeping from the west.  Constance thought of her father and her family and of how it seemed the storms were following them.  Soon, the moonlight would be blotted out, and the rains would be on them again, whipping the water into a frenzy and raising the rivers between them and their destination.  

Constance was so caught up in her thoughts that she did not see Arthur finish his cigarette, nor did she notice him watching her.  But she felt his hand brush along her neck, pushing back hair as he went.  She felt when he leaned in and pressed three kisses where his hand had just been.

She shivered because of the electric wind moving across the water, because of Arthur.  But then he pulled back, and she turned her head to look at him.  He was silvery and blue and shadowed, and she put her hand out, rested it against his cheek, to feel the warmth of his skin.

He smiled, and she smiled back.  She felt on the edge of things unknown.  The storm was moving closer, and soon they would go inside, where it was warm and dry and they’d be alone.  This put a strange sense of excitement and fear in her.  She had half-dreamed desires forming.  She had feelings moving in on her as fast as those clouds.

“Let’s go inside,” she said.
