Ghost MV Fic
The clone was missing.
It didn’t escape on its own, that much was clear from the start. It couldn’t have. Wouldn’t have. No, someone set it free.
No, someone set it free.
Any doubt in his mind evaporated when he turned away from the empty room to find his wife unwilling to meet his eyes. Guilty.
“Are you angry with me?” she asked, confirming his suspicions. When he didn’t answer, she continued, “I couldn’t bear to see you hurt. You must understand that. He—he was you. I couldn’t just stand back and watch, anymore than if it had been you in—”
“I’m not angry,” he said, and drew her into his arms, where she belonged. Only days returned to Earth and he wasn’t used to the gravity yet. To the weight of her against his body. He held her close and breathed in the familiar scent of her perfume. Jasmine. Home. “Of course I’m not, darling.”
“You’re not?”
He ran a hand through her hair, settled it on the back of her head, pressed her into him. Oh how he’d missed this, lost among the stars for nearly two endless years. It still felt like a dream.
“I created it for you.” He wanted her to have some small piece of him while he was away. He couldn’t bear the thought of her alone. But he was home, now; the clone had served its purpose. “This makes things easier.”
“You’re not going to try to find him, then?”
“The others will.” Of course they would, it was a priceless experiment on the run, and they wouldn't want to risk the technology falling into anyone's hands. But he wouldn’t be helping them. He didn’t want it back.
“Will you create another one?”
“... No.” Would the others? Possibly. They may even have enough of his DNA to make another replica of him. Perhaps they would find someone else to serve as the matrix around which they would create another life. Either way, he would have no part in it.

im going over the works i wrote when i was like 15-16 there are some when i was even younger probably, i just havent gotten to them yet and omg, how many times can i say the same shit just a different set of words ssjkdnhkaasdhksaj
it's good to go back and look over the stuff,,, considering most of it is inspired by what i was going through,, ig both irl and in my head,,, but the names are what get me the most,,, ig they are realistic but damn are they cliche hahahha
it's such a big trip down the memory lane but it's also killing me inside to read all of it and see all of the mistakes and everything,,, at the very least im glad that me back in the days decided NOT to post them anywhere and reading them now also helped me realize why they never called me back from that writing whatever the fuck group #rude
