Drabble: Windswept

[lirazel]

Going retro for ineffort : Mac/Cassidy, Nevada.  And look at me, writing another actual 100-word drabble!  I hope I do your OTP justice, love!

That he loves the desert doesn’t surprise her.  Windswept clean and endless, wide open and flooded with light (sunlight, moonlight, starlight).  No room for secrets or demons to lurk, no cover for them to sneak up on you.

 

It’s a small town--too small, she would have thought, for a girl who dreamed big.  But Cassidy never let himself think about the future at all, because he was so sure he wouldn’t get one. 

 

Here, though, he lets himself, unfolding bit by bit, opening himself to blasting sunlight and wind, driving the demons away.

 

She finds it’s enough for her.
