Oc x Oc Sahir and Azalea
(No x reader sorry not sorry)
Cw: angst, character death, grief, no comfort
Azalea woke up tangled in her lover’s embrace but something felt off.
She ran a hand over his and he felt… cold. Too cold. They had both gotten older but… well she was half elf and lived twice as long as a human. She knew he was slowing down.
But still, that didn’t help her right now, she tried to get a pulse, heartbeat, anything.
She sighed and before she even had time to process what had happened, she pulled on her robe, and went downstairs.
The house was so quiet nowadays. Not like she minded too much. She called for Mike and found him gathering the mail like always.
“The Baron has passed, send for a doctor.” She instructed as firmly as she could, desperately trying to shatter. “Please…don’t take too long Mike..”
She returned to the bedroom, glancing around at the room, seeing what she could make neat before the doctor and whatever else they needed came.
The she slipped out of her robe and climbed back into Sahirs arms.
“You’re probably laughing at me right now…I know how silly it feels…” a sob racked through her body as she pulled herself closer to him, “but I can’t let you go quite yet, my love, I just want to pretend you’ll wake up soon. That you’ll tell me I’m being dumb like always and it’s fine”
Her quiet laughter fell apart into tears, falling asleep as she laid in his arms if only for a minute more.
