Seeking Comfort - 100 words

The hot water didn’t help. Muscles ached, cuts burned and souls cried. It was so silent that the small sounds made by the bursting bubbles were the only things heard. Water moved, warm skin touched, they settled again.

Silence. Blissful silence, but no peace. Each lost in their personal thoughts. It took a while to decompress after a mission, even longer after the really bad ones. Ops had been lost today. Their fragile existence stared them in the face, their inevitable deaths on their minds.

She closed her eyes and leaned back against her lover, seeking comfort, finding cynicism. She sighed.
