You saw him. For a split second you saw him.
Clothed in a sweat stained, bland colored sweat shirt and sweatpants.
His hair was long, covering his eyes. Those beautiful blue orbs shielded from you, and his hair looked sweaty and greasy more than usual.
His skin looked a bit uncolored, whether that was to be from lack of food, a beating, being sick of just all of the above.
As he raised his head only once to look at you briefly, it was the first time in a long time you looked at him and felt an overwhelming sense of pain.
Your heart aching for him, your eyes clouding with tears that you would soon cry for him.
He didn't look like himself anymore, but you knew in the deepest part of your heart that no matter how hard they tried to break that last piece of him... That he wouldn't break.
He was strong. He was all but broken, and you knew that even under the display of pain and horror on the outside of him, that the inside was as strong as he'd ever been.
A/N: what do you think? Besides that GIF making me cry for him😭
