I managed 1284 words today! I wrote a scene and a half. The half is the first part of the final scene for Chapter 7. I'm nearing the halfway point of the fic! And since I'm near the end of this chapter, it was hard to find a non-spoilery sample. But I managed to find a little something.
Today's sample:
Marcus was sitting outside on the steps of his porch in a tank top and sweatpants, hugging himself, when Tomas pulled up to the house. The temperature was in the upper forties, but it felt wonderful to him. He wasn’t shivering. His skin was glistening with sweat as it dried. Tomas wanted nothing more than to escort him inside out of the brisk air, to wrap him in his arms and make his friend’s inner demons cease to exist.
“You shouldn’t be out here,” Tomas told him as he approached him.
“It was either this or an ice bath. This was less work.” He gave him a lopsided grin and received one in return.
The two men sat side-by-side on the stairs, looking up at the night sky and the luminescent orb that sat within its inky blackness.
