Sebastian didn’t always like his life. Sometimes, he wanted to just disappear. Snap his fingers and be gone, away from everything— his mom, school, his reputation, his job, everything.

This wasn’t one of those times. This was one of the rare times he actually felt like he was okay. That everything was gonna be okay. With you in his arms, his head against your pillows and his body curled perfectly against yours as he sang to you under his breath. Terrified, by Katharine Mc-something or whatever. He didn’t really remember her name.

“I’m at the edge of my emotions… watching the shadows burning in the dark…” he hummed softly, tracing your back with his larger hands. He had to stay quiet— since he may or may not have snuck into your room without your parents knowing.

“I’m in love, and I’m terrified… for the first time and the last time in my only,” he exhaled softly, his voice smooth as he closed his eyes. Oh god, how he loved you.
