Justin had been changing a lot recently. Ever since the night in the woods when I discovered that he was a rogue, I could tell that he was working on himself. And lately, he had been incredibly sweet and kind, and we had spent a lot of late nights talking in the infirmary. I didn’t want to admit it, but his presence was a comfort when I needed
