    sparked and crackled, leaping towards us and swirling. The only semblance of colour in our white-washed world danced and shook with the force of the storm, paling under the cold’s relentless assault. We never flinched as we held to each other, wishing the nightmare were over. “I’m sorry, Victoria.” My voice was raised over the din we were enveloped in, rather than the softer, lighter tone I would usually have hoped for. “Sitting here staring at this God damn fire just takes it out of me. I wish I could just see something out there!” “There’s nothing out there, Tom! They’re gone. They’re not coming back. I know that, now.” Her voice held such a pitiful, despairing tone that my chest constricted. I had prayed for days that she wouldn’t give it up, but the sound of her crackling, broken voice trying to hide her tears broke my heart. I reached out with my frosty mitt to turn her face towards me, looking into the deep, blue, sorrowful pools of her crying eyes. The bitter cold stung her chiseled cheeks to a red glow, as though she had been smacked, and the cracked, full lip she bit down on held a purple tinge. I had seen the beautiful features of her face split open with unbridled happiness on our excursions.

Our heads leaned together and my hand rested against her leg, stroking her with an attempted soothing motion. It all felt rather clumsy and ill-conceived, but I knew I had to try – for Victoria’s sake. Watching my hand’s fruitless attempt at consolation, my mind drifted a little. I imagined the softness of her thighs, beneath the layers of winter clothing. My mind turned inwards, hiding from the cold. The white background of our world gave the perfect backdrop to the playback of my memories. I remembered watching her lithe legs strut her tight form around a tropical hotel pool. My mind’s eye perfectly recalled the shine of her golden hair, paired with the flawless, tanned skin that gave her the radiance of a celestial body. Strapped teasingly into a plain red bikini, she had me enraptured. I could only stare at the gentle bounce of her breasts and the rhythmic quivering of her firm, divine ass with every measured step. Victoria’s shapely body, kissed by the sun’s glow, looked perfect in that warm, tropical setting. She dived neatly into the pool, surfacing with a playful giggle and an elegant flick of her hair.
