Ezra's POV
Kanan rushes over to me but I'm scared so I scoot way. I don't want him finding out about my secret I've been trying to hide it but I keep having these terrible nightmares and he is always in them. "Ezra please talk to me" kanan said in a worried tone
"I c-cant y-you'll throw m-me out a-a-and think I'm a pathetic, w-weak street rat." I said in between sobs "because everyone who knows my secret always turns me back in" I said lightly crying

Kanans POV
I listened to Ezra as he broke down. But all I could think about was 'what did this kid go through'
"Please, I won't throw you out or think any different of you just please Ezra tell me" I said trying to comfort the young boy. "Promise me you won't tell the others, please promise me you won't" Ezra said with sadness and fear laced in his voice. "I promise" I said to him unsure about my decision.

Ezra's POV
He promised he wouldn't tell the others, but I'm scared... what if he's disgusted by me, or what if he... no I can't think like that! Kanan would never think any less of me, but what if he does. "I-I was a s-slave..." I said with uncertainty. "And I keep having nightmares about Him... I-I understand if you want to throw me out, I mean who wants a dirty slave living among them" I said with sadness just waiting for Kanan to yell or hit me or even throw me out of the ship.

Kanan POV
HES A SLAVE!! WHAT!!! I screamed in my head! why would someone do that to such a sweet boy! I had so many emotions like pity, sadness, and guilt because I didn't find out sooner and help him with his nightmares. "Ezra... I had no idea..." I said still shocked and in thought. I open my arms to embrace him in a hug but what I didn't expect was for Ezra to practically leap into my open arms and start sobbing. I embrace Ezra in a big hug comforting him and not wanting it to end. "Shhh... shhh... it's ok now... I got you and I'm never letting go... your safe" I say as I'm soothing the broken boy until I hear quiet snoring coming from Ezra and I just can't help but smile.

Ezra POV
As Kanan soothes me while I cry into his shirt I can't help but to think what happens next...
