I could feel myself being illuminated by him.
I could feel the embers from his fire inside him being blown across to me, lighting up small corners and parts of my being.
I welcomed the feeling, but then it felt like I was changing and I didn't know if I could handle it.
What if I was drifting away from something that is me, defines me?
What if his embers light up and burn something important, something that needs to stay because that was me.
I didn't know, and I hoped that I would still be washed in light, still become bright and independent.
But Tim would always be there, even if I changed and drifted away from everything.
And wasn't I already fading anyway?
