~WILLOW~

I was doing everything to get closer to Dante. I didn’t want to give up on us without a fight. But I didn’t know how long I would keep this up. If Dante kept pushing me away, eventually, I would give in and let things drift apart between us.

“You’re not going to make this easy for me, are you?” Dante whispers. My head was against his chest, and my arms were wrapped around him.

Finally, he was catching on.

“I’m not going to stop until you admit that you have feelings for me as well, Dante.” I finally admit. “You’re denying your feelings for me, and you’re preventing the both of us from being happy. I know why you’re doing it, but I wish that, for once, you would think about someone other than my sister.”

He doesn’t say anything in response. I held my breath when both of his arms were suddenly wrapped around my body. He hugged me back, and I think my chest exploded with joy.

“Just for tonight.” He whispers.

I nod and felt my eyes begin to shut close slowly. I was drifting off into a peaceful sleep. I always felt safe in Dante’s arms. He always made me feel like no one could hurt me as long as I was with him. But the only danger around me felt like it was him. His words, his actions, all of it had the power to crumble me. He was my weakness.

It’s the middle of the night when I wake up to Dante’s cries in his sleep.
