Summary
“Shit happens,” Katsuki mutters, staring straight ahead, his eyes piercing through the fog. “Things get fucked up.” The heel of his shoe scrapes the pavement, disturbing more dead leaves in its wake. “People die.”
Shouto feels a pang in his chest, like an icicle piercing through his heart.
That couple the other day… they were so young. So vivacious, so full of hope for what tomorrow would bring. Their time was stolen away like an unseasonably early frost settling over the landscape and suffocating the life out of every living thing the ice touches. Their last breaths were ripped from their lungs by a cruel wind at the forefront of a squall.
And all Shouto could do was stand there, too late to preserve whatever warmth was left in their bodies.
[...]
People die.Trees die. Leaves die. The warmth of summer dies as autumn drifts in to make way for the frigid frost of winter, where nothing can grow.
Love dies, too, sometimes.
.
In which grief hangs heavy in the autumn air and Shouto and Katsuki take a walk.
