You're both adults with ...some idea of how these things go... and have felt it before... a little different?

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

It's still utterly terrifying.

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

[that isn't reassuring]

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

But just think about him . . .

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

...?

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

Is it worth it?

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

I just want whatever future he can smile in...

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

He's told you what he wants.

[squeezes his eyes shut, wincing]

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

Come here . . .?

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

[shifts closer...]

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

[holds a hand out to him, palm up]

I won't bite.

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

[takes his hand...]

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

So you have a choice to make.

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

[...nods...]

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

. . . I'm proud of you.

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

[h-horrified. Shakes his head]

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

Haha . . .

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

[shakes it again...]

[zeromemories.insanejournal.com]

I mean it. You're willing to deal with some really significant issues.

[crossboundaries.insanejournal.com]

I don't... want... to. I don't want to. Everything drags others in a train.
