Darker London-Uncover what is underneath...

No matter how much you loved someone, or how much you trusted them, having them inside your head was a bit of an imposition, even stating it mildly. Abby had always been the more logical of the two, thinking things out and weighing the pros and cons of a situation before easing herself into the murky waters of descision. Thomas was the one who threw himself, head first, into anything and everything, and that was prescisely why he was the dead one. Again. And now Abby had that will to do in her head and she wondered if it would leave when Thomas did. If her new and more Thomas-like qualities would slip away. She didn't mind being Thomas-like. It was reassuring to just know you were doing the right thing, and bugger the consequenses. Thomas may be dead, but he had always done what needed to be done. Abby had no such reassurance. Nor had she ever really experienced such simple joy in everything around her. Not that Abby was an unhappy person, but her emotions were so complex, and she never really took a deep breath and appreciated what surrounded her. Thomas was teaching her that and she was grateful. She hoped it would remain long after he was gone.
