"You might not be able to trust what you feel," I tell him, easing my hand back so I'm no longer touching him, "but your body doesn't lie." I lean forward just enough to press a chaste kiss to his lips. "It fucking sings for me." 🤭

“So long as I had the will to make it through another day, I'd be okay. There would still be a me. A Way." He taps his knuckle. Oh God...”There're a lot of meanings behind this symbol, but that's the one I chose for myself. Where there's a will, there's a way."

Omg and way had the nerve to say this was cheesy when it’s so meaningful 🥹 how precious

But if hurting him with the truth is what it takes to prevent history from repeating itself, I will happily fall on that sword for him. A thousand fucking times over. I'll piss him off until he's old and gray if that's what it takes. His demons got nothing on me.

"I'm not the one who hurt you, Way-" “Just looking at you hurts!" he screams raggedly.
I still.

There’s so much pain here 😰

I was happy. So happy. Happier than I think I’ve ever been. “Will and Way. We're a team. Always."

😭 I feel so much for him. It’s heartbreaking

Hearts are not known for their patience after all—they only ever just want what they want, when they want it, with no regard for the consequences. And if the heart doesn't get what it wants? It becomes violent. “I hate you." If this is hate, baby, I think, licking across his teeth, I don't know if I'd survive your love.

Ahhh

"I'm not sorry," I tell him, “for going after the person I thought was hurting you back then. It's a promise I should have never made in the first place." He flinches. His mouth tightens. “But I am sorry it cost me you."

🥺 aw man

This is what I came back for. Not for answers.
Not for closure. I came back to remember what it was like to be happy. To be whole.

Will Foster was a bright spot in a sea of darkness. He was something to hold on to when I was a kid and life at home was caving in around me.

🥺
