Deadly had known you for a while- you were the only one on the block who he liked, and the only one his brother didn’t see as a target. But lately things had been different— His heart would beat harder when you came around, he’d feel fuzzy when he made you laugh, and he felt his cheeks grow warm when you complimented him.

Oh god- he was inlove. How could he be inlove?? How was that possible?? Could he even love properly after his childhood?

One day, Deadly had come over to your tiny, rundown house, and you two were talking on the couch as you waited for a commercial to wrap up. He smiled down at you as you raved about your favorite scene so far.
