Bones

We played a game of hide and seek.

I tried to keep her at a distance.
But no matter how high I built my walls, she was always there to seek me out.
She saw me.
She understood me, even when I didn’t understand myself.

She was the one.
I knew it without a doubt.

The time had come for me to stake my claim.
But our game of hide and seek was about to take a turn.
An unknown adversary threatened to put an end to us all.
Now, it was my turn to be the seeker.
