"Espoir"
His eyes were shut, the sunlight toning over his perfectly sculpted face.
"Espoir"
The only word he's been muttering ever since he was found.
"Espoir"
My heart clenched, knowing what he meant was 'hope'.
Just what has he gone through?
Basically, Beverly risks her sleep sneaking an unconscious, half-naked, greek-god-looking man who was head-to-toe covered in blood, up her room without any thoughts of what she was doing. After all, she was half-asleep when she cleaned the stranger, carried his unconscious body on to the bed and fell asleep hugging him. Did she take off his hoodie that he never takes off? Yes she did. Is she getting in trouble for that? Of course she is.
Do you know when they say that the biggest smiles hide behind the most pain? That's Beverly for you. Her whole life is being physically, mentally and emotionally drained out of her and yet, she never fails to hide her pain behind a smile.
Everest half the opposite of Beverly. The boy who simply doesn't talk. No one has seen him outside his hoodie that he never takes off. No one speaks to him, not ever. Either because he's lonely, or perhaps because he's the most dangerous person in the world. Only, Beverly doesn't know this when she saw him on her doorstep, completely covered in blood.
