Title: Crush 6 Rating: PG Length: 115 words Competitor: Buriam Tourakom Round/Fight: 1/E Summary: Raoul tries to make things right.
“Kel?” Raoul's voice was serious, but strangely tentative.
Kel was on the curtain wall, tucked into a niche between turrets, looking at the ground. At times like this, she took comfort from knowing that even if the rest of her life was a shambles, she had at least beaten her fear of heights.
Calm as a lake, she reminded herself, and carefully eased her way out of the niche.
“You overheard us, I take it?”
“I'm sorry,” she said, looking down at her feet. “I didn't mean to eavesdrop. And I don't mean to come between you...” Her voice cracked. “Between you and Buri. But you didn't have to laugh.”

Aww, poor Kel. I love how she handles it so maturely even though she seems so vulnerable at the same time, and I love the detail about her taking comfort from getting over her fear of heights.

I love that she outright addresses the laughing. <3
