Charming Disruption

When I wake up, I know exactly where I am. And with whom. I have no doubt who owns the warmth that envelops me in my sleep. There's only one person who can make me miss so many heartbeats, and only one person can make me feel so unsettled. Yesterday, I needed someone. I needed anyone. I haven't been able to sleep for days now because every time I open my eyes, I find myself back there. I'm there with my father, getting beaten up and praying for it to stop. I'm in such a bad state that I accept the mission he's offered me. And I'm so ashamed of myself for what I've done.

For this, I needed someone. Anyone.

Except that Emery isn't just anyone.
