"Ah shit, I know that look what'd you do?" I heard Nik say as he looks up from his phone when I enter his office with my head bowed down.

"I fucked up" I confess rather quickly but then again it is the truth.

"Ok...would you like to tell me about it?"

"Since when do you ask so nicely you usually threaten answers out of me"

"Well, there's a first time for everything am I right? Plus it's not like I'm not gonna force them out of you if you don't answer so start talking damy"

"I yelled at her"

"Damien are you out of your goddamn mind-"

"Listen I know it's bad but she kept asking about my hand and I couldn't really tell her I accidentally hurt myself because I was angry with my DON father's SECOND IN COMMAND being at my house"

"Well yea but you also could have just changed the topic"

"Look I froze and she was persistent what do I do now? She kicked me out of her office for fuck's sake"

"Ohhh you're in deep shit but you would think it was obvious enough that you should apologize," he says matter of factly, and deep deep (that's what she said) down in a part of me that I don't want to acknowledge I know he's right I really do but being the person that I am now, I know that I've already gotten too close and if she hates me that just makes it easier for the both of us to stay away so no matter what that what that little bitch part in me thinks this is the best thing I can do for the both of us.

Let her hate me.

"I'll take that as I'm gonna be an asshole like I always am and not apologize like any normal human being would" the sarcasm rolls off his tongue and it makes me feel even guiltier about not apologizing. Dammit.

Maybe I should- no you shouldn't you'll end up hurting just like how you hurt everyone who comes within a few meters of you

Who the fuck are you you little-you know I'm not wrong. You know you destroy anything and everything you've ever cared about. I'm just the only one who will say it out loud.

Just shut up-if she doesn't hate you now she'll hate you when she finds out who you really are she'll hate you when she finds out what you did-

"DAMIEN SNAP OUT OF IT" Nik snaps at me interrupting whatever what the fuck was happening in my head which I'm very grateful for because I don't really know how much more I could have taken.

"Damien... you're shaking are you okay?" He puts his hand on my shoulder trying to stop my arm from moving while staring into my eyes trying to find an answer to his question himself. And he seems to have found exactly what he wanted because he just gives me a reassuring look and wraps me in a tight hug which I return and squeeze him probably a little harder than I should have but he doesn't seem to mind.
