angst

---

It only takes you until noon to figure out something is wrong. Normally they find a way to bother you. Normally they do so multiple times a day, a smug grin etched on their face as they make pointless conversation.

A day doesn't even pass before your visiting the Palace's chapel to ask for them. Only to be told that they are not receiving visitors.

Though you know within the day. Two. Three. Four days pass by without a word. You visit the chapel every day. Every day you are turned away.

It is the fifth day when you finally hear them saying your name again, "Oh how I have missed you. It was so boring." The wrongness is there still, when they don't rush to put their arm over your shoulder. When they lean close after they catch up to you, but not as close as they did.

"Did you miss me?"

"Yes, I asked about you-" Out of habit you move to wrap your arm around theirs and they wince. "What-"

Their smile is still warm and genuine, "It doesn't matter. Really I'm not even supposed to be out yet. I just wanted to see you." As if on cue you see several initiates come around the corner, chests heaving like they had been running.

The Healer brushes a quick kiss against your cheek, breathing you in, "I'll see you soon. I’ve got a date with destiny, and it won't end as pleasantly as this meeting did. Unfortunately."

They don't dash off, but instead walk calmly towards the initiates, laughing as if they had pulled off the most amazing joke.

You don't see them for another week.
