It echoes in him and cuts where it lingers. That wasn’t…did he want to leave him? No. Never. He could know he was the most acrid person in existence and he wouldn’t want to leave Wolfe. But could he? If it were for his safety?
Yes.
More tears fall to his cheeks, but he only looks up to meet Wolfe’s eyes.
“I don’t want to leave you. I don’t want to go anywhere…know that if I felt I needed to or wanted to, I would make that decision with you…but we’re not there yet. I just…I feel like a sickness and I don’t know how to heal it…but…please know I want to.”
He sighs and closes his eyes. “I want to feel worth your effort and love again. I want to feel like I can be safe for you…at the minimum.”
He’s still not sure Chrystal wouldn’t hate him…he’s still not sure he can ever face his guardians again with all that’s in him now…but if he can hold onto this, hold onto his love and life here, then that could be enough.
