The tattoos

Not a day went by without the two girls discussing the exchange year Nyxie would take and what would happen to their relationship. Eventually, with tears and both of their hearts breaking a little, they agreed on taking a break from each other for a year, even though the dreams would most likely continue, and contacting each other again when in a year’s time Nyxie would return.

They were both terrified of the change, though. Having grown so used to having each other around, neither of them knew what the distance would make them face, and both of them were more than slightly terrified of what reaction their bodies were to have. They still buzzed each time they touched each other, and every time they had to separate for classes or work, or because one would go out with friends while the other had to work or study, they would be aching to get back to each other, both physically and mentally.
