She stood in the darkness.
She wasn't quite certain where she was.
No-
Wait.
This was...
The castle corridor.
Which meant that-
She didn't know how she'd gotten here, but she was certain that it meant he must be here.
She turned around, staring into the darkness.
"Vaughn..." She whispered.
Her voice carried away into the infinite silence like twisting water vapor in a blizzard.
A hand settled on her chin, turning her away from that long tunnel of emptiness.
His haunted blue eyes stared down at hers.
"You're a stubborn one." Vaughn said softly.
He let go of her jaw.
She inhaled sharply.
"I've been looking for you."
His lips curled into a smile, but there was an endless sadness in it instead of happiness.
"As I said. You're incredibly stubborn, little sun."
Her eyes widened, heart racing.
