it’d been a rough past few months for you, and xaden picked up on it. you’d stopped hanging out with your friends as much, stopped talking to xaden, and only came out from your room during classes and training.

he was confused to say the least, given that he thought you were doing okay. he’d slowly became one of the few people you invested trust in, considering you couldn’t trust many people at basgiath.

he watched as you continued the same routine again today, and decided if you wouldn’t come to him, then he’d come to you. he knocked on you door, patiently waiting for your permission to enter, even though he’d warded your room for only you and him.

once he heard your approval, he came in and shut the door behind him, glancing over you lying in bed. “you can’t hide out forever, you know.” he started out, tone light as he mad his way over to you. “tell me what’s been on your mind, yeah?” he said, sitting on the edge of your bed.
