„I've had enough of life, Rae."

Love was laying on Corpse's bed, fiddling with a strand of wavy hair between her fingers as she poured her heart out to Rae.

„My ex is ruining my life, my mother just got engaged, my sister needs my moral support at the engagement party, and Corpse is... Not so fine."

„Oh, honey," Rae sighed, not being sure what was the right thing to say in this situation. „Your therapist was right, though, you need to press charges or something. I didn't know you were seventeen then."

„Don't even remind me. Tomorrow he will post Corpse."

„Fuck."

Fuck indeed. She seemed cool and collected in front of him, but deep down, she was screaming and crying. She didn't know how to protect his identity, but it looked like he has already accepted his faith. Which Love wasn't going to let happen.

„I'm just so lost, Rae. What do I do?"

„Besides reaching out to police, there's not much you can do. Maybe most of the screenshots? Or is that too far?"

„I don't know," Love frowned upon her idea. There was really not much she could do in this situation, and as she thought about it more, maybe posting their messages wasn't even that bad of an idea. „Maybe not. He has already posted my naked body, and he's about to expose Corpse. It's not that big of a deal."

„You're right," Rae encouraged her, making the young brunette girl feel better about her statement. She really didn't want to cause any more drama, but she was forced into it. „Maybe one of your fans could doxx him or something."

„Rae!" Love let out a surprised gasp. „You're a little devil, you know?"

„Oh, I know," Rae let out a laugh. „This dipshit is causing my wife a lot of stress, that's not okay. Let alone Corpse, I can't even imagine how is he..."

„He's doing fine, considering all the things," She heard Rae let out a relieved sigh. „Not the best, but at least we have each other right now."

„I'm so happy for you guys. You two deserve to be happy."

„I wouldn't actually call this happiness, but you do you."

„You know what I mean, woman," Rae cried, earning a small chuckle from Love. „But really, it's good that you two have each other."

Love felt that way, too. She didn't know what she would do if he wouldn't be there to keep her sane.

„I'm sorry."

„What?" Love whipped her head around to look at him, furrowing her eyebrows in confusion. „What are you sorry for?"

„I shouldn't have picked up your phone, but it was so annoying, that I couldn't work."

Love let out a small laugh at his words as she approached him, longing for physical touch.

„It's fine, you put my sister at ease."

„Your sister hates me," he groaned as he let his hand smooth out the brown curls from her face. It was such a simple and small movement, but still, it made Love's heart quicken. „She called me the voice of Satan."

Love couldn't contain her laugh as she sat beside him on the couch, leaning on his shoulder. There was something in the way they sat beside each other, his left hand caressing her thigh as she closed her eyes, enjoying every minute of the fleeing peacefulness.
