Walls we built - A Jayvik fanfiction

"Walls We Built"

Jayce's life has always been about keeping people out. The walls he's built around himself are thick, forged from years of abuse and silent suffering. He's perfected the art of hiding his pain, masking it behind a mask of arrogance and the occasional taunt. He bullies Viktor, not because he wants to, but because Viktor reminds him of himself and so he uses him as an outlet.

Viktor knows what it's like to keep others at a distance. His own history has taught him that trust is a dangerous thing. But when Jayce stumbles back into their dorm one night, bloodied and barely holding it together, something shifts. Viktor starts to wonder if there's more to Jayce than the walls he's built. And maybe, just maybe, they both need to let those walls fall-if only they can figure out how.
