Drabble: Scarred

Title: Scarred
Author: [info]casy_dee 
Rating: K
Characters/Pairing: Connor
Spoiler: none
Warning: Angst
Genre: Drabble
Words: 100
Summary: Drabble in response to primeval 100 challenge # 182 Haunted

 

 

Scarred

He shivered, sheets tangling and sticking to sweat soaked skin… ghosts of the past haunting him.  He whimpered… a tear trickled down his cheek.   Loss upon crippling loss heaped upon him, bowing him with the burden of it.  Scars drawn upon scars, his large heart battered, damaged… but it beat.  Pain and loss had left its mark… had tempered him to an incredible quiet strength in the forge of life.   He’d not let it turn him bitter or cruel or cold.  He’d not let it close his heart, though to leave it open meant more pain, more grief… more nightmares.




Thanks for reading

Oh, wow. This is so sad and intense. In their line of work a lot of hurt and scars are inevitable, but... it's so sad. Makes me want to huggle Connor hard.
