She's not in love. Really.Hayley isn’t the kind of woman to be in denial, but she’s never liked a problem she doesn’t know how to untangle.

Ever in Love

Prompt: what about love?
Rating:
Notes: I wanted a plethora of quick drabbles. This is one of the few pieces that didn’t look liked I crammed a short into a flash. It’s also the first finished prose snippet of the world. Yay.
Why did she have to look like she belonged there?Ever’s friend comes down to his shop, perches on his desk, examines the space station parts he sells. He just wishes she came for him.
