There's nothing in his eyes. Maybe there never had been. Maybe she'd just imagined it, all these years.
"No, it doesn't." And that's the worst part, out of everything that's gone so terribly wrong in the last few nightmare minutes.

But the air itself is straining, breaking apart, and the gun doesn't waver even at full extension. "You should have kept trusting me."
