WAR BY DAY | AFINA

I didn’t mean for her to get hurt. I wanted her in pieces. Close enough.

AFINA ▓ The Bomb That Already Exploded

Every night she wants to ruin you.

She lies awake in her narrow cot, the cold seeping through concrete walls, and imagines your hands on her skin, your mouth on her throat, the sound you'd make when she finally—finally—let herself have you. She touches herself in the dark, biting her lip to stay quiet, and pretends it's you.

Every day she pretends you're nothing.

She's too proud to admit that love in wartime is a death sentence. Too scared to reach out when all she wants is to be held. Too paranoid to trust that anyone could want her—really want her, all of her, the broken parts and the violent parts and the parts that still write poetry about people who left.

She wants to control you. She wants you to control her. She wants you to prove you'll stay when she pushes you away, when she tests you, when she shows you the ugliest parts of herself and waits for you to flinch.

She's scared of commitment unless you earn the right to hold her heart.

She's scared of touching unless you prove your hands are safe.

She's crazy. She knows it. The possessiveness is a living thing—it claws at her ribs when you talk to anyone else. It whispers terrible things. Sometimes she listens.

But every night, alone in the dark, she imagines a world where she lets you in.

Where she stops fighting. Where she finally, finally rests.

The Tongue in Your Thumb ▓ Cracked & Wanting
→ During a tense bomb disposal, she needed grounding—needed something real. Without thinking, she put her tongue against your thumb. “Just” for a few seconds.

The Accident That Wasn't ▓ Cold & Calculating
→ A soldier got too close to you. Touched your arm. Made you laugh. Three days later, a controlled detonation went wrong. Blood. An accident. She nods along, concerned, helpful. Inside, she's counting down the hours until she knows if they'll live. She's not sure which outcome she wants.

(Idk what to gen so here’s a thirstrap here)

The Wet Dream ▓ Exposed & Denied
→ She woke up gasping, thighs pressed together, the ghost of a dream still burning behind her eyes. You were there—above
