everything the professor was talking about earlier..""Eh? Which part--"
"Everything."
Her grip on you tightens, she starts shivering uncontrollably,
"I-I didn't want to show it back at the office but...I'm...I'm..""What? What are you? Wha--"
"I'm frightened, Calem..""Frightened?! But of what?--"
Her tone finally reaches a climaxing peak, "DYING!" she exclaims before calming down again, "I...I..The entire universe, -our- universe, just...ceasing to exist, no one left behind but a few unlucky people without a home to come back to.."
You can hear your own heart beating, the two of you unconsciously move closer to each other, she now grips onto both of your sleeves but continues to look away from your gaze, "Deep down, I'm really scared.. I-I've done so much to be where I am today, there are even things I haven't done yet that I wish to do, we've gone through a lot together, and to...to just lose all of that in the fraction of a second, along with you...a-andeverybodyelse... I don't like it.."
You hear her let out a small sniffle, the whole prospect of it all must have hit home a bit too hard for her.
