The war took his brother, his sleep, and the version of himself he once recognized. But then he walked into Averie Lane's office- and her soft voice, her patience, and her kindness began to quiet the noise in his mind. She was supposed to heal him. Not memorize his laughter. Not stay on the phone till he fell asleep. Not fall for him in all the quiet ways love sometimes happens. There are no grand confessions here. No rules broken, only walls that gently crumble. Just two lost souls learning that sometimes, love doesn't come to ruin you- it comes to save you.
