⤷ cw: mentions of past trauma

All of it, those terrible memories, each and every one of them are permanently etched in your recollection, and now it seems that those remnants of moments will perpetually torment you in your dreams as well.

You could hear their mocking voices, echoing about you, ringing from the dark. The fear that struck your heart had you frozen in fear. "Ah... please-"'

Your muffled cries reach the ears of the male beside you, who wakes with a start, immediately glancing down at you, whose hand is latched onto his wrist tightly, tears silently falling from your eyes.

"N-No...I'm sorry..."

Those words have him shocked into silence.

Those words that mirrored his, all those years ago, before he had changed, before he had been named who he was now.

"I will never love you, someone so imperfect."

Those were his words his mother had said, and now they clearly rung through his head, sending his mind abuzz. He could see her sharp gaze, the way she glared at him, the way she had threw him away, like he meant nothing.

Her cold eyes that bore not the slightest shred of affection.

"S-Scaramouche...?" You had awoken, and now you trembled despite the warmth.

The single call of his name that made his shudder.

And now, seeing you so desperately clinging to him like this, he could only think of how you looked just like him in those moments. The way you trembled, your labored inhales and exhales, staring up at him with wide, tear-filled eyes, and the way you latched onto his arms so tightly, like you never wanted to let go.

"Love, please, look at me." His voice is shaking just the slightest, his currently gentle tone one that rarely ever shows. When you don't comply, breath only quickening, he softly sighs at your pitiful state. Hesitantly, he raises both his arms, before wrapping them around you, his hold on you uncharacteristically warm.

"Please." His embrace is tight, and he doesn't want to let go of you, not now, when you're still so weak.

"Can you hear me right now? You don't have to speak... but you can nod your head."

"Trust me."

"Please listen to me."

"I'm here."

"It's going to be okay, love." ♥
