It was a tough night, trying to get to sleep. Y/N finally shared some of what they were thinking to Adora.
And it seemed to hit.
The blonde was very understanding of the situation and wants to do what she can to help, no matter what.
...
In essence, both of them often blame themselves for things that have happened long ago, whether it hurt the other or not.
But she never saw them break down crying like this. Sure she's seen them mad or frustrated, albeit, not in the best way, but she never saw them like this. It was a first.
And, from the Ranger's perspective, it seemed that Adora could understand that pain. The pain of feeling powerless because of what others feel or think. The pain that follows when situations like the Heart of Etheria took place.
It's always dull, but remains.
...
...
It didn't help that the dream they had dealt with some of their emotions about Adora heading to the Heart of Etheria.
...
Though they weren't twisting and turning uncomfortably, it was clear that, even in a sleepy state, that they were scared.
Their eyes were clenched shut tightly, their body shaking.
...
...
...
"Adora!"
...
"Adora, open your eyes...!"
...
...
I shouldn't have left you alone...
"I'm sorry..."
...
"Adora!"
...
...
Why...?
...
...
"ADORA!"
...
...
...
The Ranger opened their eyes, taking a silent, sharp intake of breath. They could feel their heart pounding in their chest.
Turning onto their side, they gazed back at Adora, feeling her muscular arm hug around their body. It was like she created a small protective bubble just for them.
Y/N put their hand over hers and squeezed Adora's hand gently, sighing inwardly.
...
They laid back down on their back, staring up at the ceiling.
...
...
They got lost in the dark velvety colors that the stars and moons would create every night. It reminded them of the flowers in the field. The flowers on Xoron.
How much really changed?
I wonder...
