[This isn't some action-adventure romance written for young people, this is real life. She can't just give up the life she knows and trusts to follow him into oblivion even if a part of her wants to, even if she loves him.
Life doesn't work that way. This won't end well.
She feels ill and as though her world has collapsed all around her and his touch, his hand over hers doesn't anchor her like it used to, it only makes her feel more adrift, more miserable, and less at peace. He's going to die if he goes down that path and nothing she can do can stop that or stop him.
She lets out another agonized breath before she moves to kiss him one last time.]
[ Sébastien returns the kiss with fervor, with the kind of intensity followed by a forced goodbye, knowing this is the last time they're likely to have this.
It makes his entire chest feel tight and heavy all at once, and when he follows her movement into the kiss, it's with the intention of leaving that memory of him with her, whatever happens next. He lifts a hand to bury itself into her hair, to cup the back of her neck and keep them connected to each other. His other hand pulls her into him, arm wrapped around her waist.
This might be real life, but Sébastien will kiss her like they're in an action-adventure romance. ]
