Their connection never seized to exist, but she didn't want to admit that to herself. One day he risked it all. He risked himself and his life because of the pain that existed in his heart. It hurt her, a lot, and it changed her. Flashes would always rush back to her never allowing her rest. She would find herself crying at the thought - the next morning her eyes would be puffy and streaked with red. She forgot how to feel, how to trust, and how to believe that she could open herself up. Battling everyone and everything is difficult when you're alone. The horrific fairytale she's stuck in doesn't make it better for her.
