She was kind of shaking in the corner of my bed with her legs pulled up barrely looking up at me.

Her pupils big, her eyes filled with fear.

My heart dropped into a million pieces.

She is scared of me.

"Y/n please..."

I kneeled infront of her. Infront of the bed.

"I would never hurt you...."

I went to reach her hand but she quickly moved it away.

I frowned and looked up at her.

"You don't believe me?..."

I whispered and took her hand gently.

She let out a small whimper, I never feelt so bad for scaring someone this much.

I held her hand like she is fragile, and placed it gently on my hair staying in the same place and putting my hand down.

She didn't dare to move her hand away and finally looked at me before gulping loudly.

I looked at her in the most innocent way waiting so dearly for her to start moving her hand.

To give me a sign that she forgives me.

I closed my eyes and waited.

And waited.

Until I feelt her finger tips move against the top of my hair.

And slowly but gently dig right in my hair starting to play with it.

My body left a huge exhale of relief.

"I'm sorry...."

I said quietly letting her play with my hair softly.

"I-its ok...."

She whispered and slowly yet hesitantly put her legs down and her feet barely reached the floor.

I find her height adorable compared to mine.

She fixed my hair back and moved her hands away.

"Should we continue?..."

She asked looking down swinging her legs

"...sure...."

I said and sat beside her.

...

Y/n's p.o.v

Being in a closed place with a person like him made me shiver and filled my body with fear.

Yelling at someone that JUST looked at me.

And I didn't even notice he did.

Leaving his cell I didn't know how to feel.

Full of relief or full of what feels like...sadness?

It wasn't my choice to feel so frightened over him.

I said bye to him and quickly went down the hallway to escape all the hands trying to reach me behind the bars.

I climbed upstairs more and went to the end of the hallway. Towards Albert's office.

I knocked gently and heard

"Come in"

I opened the doors and stepped in his office "sorry, May I talk to you boss?..."

"Of course take a seat..."

He said and pointed at the big leather chair infront of him across his big table.

I nodded slightly and sat down.

"About Grayson..."
