* BARELY COPING

Imagine the drama if you aren’t romancing Rafael and you have a set love interest, but as the only two others that survived the attack, you start leaning on each other more and more. No one else knows what it was like in that taped off room. Sure, others can empathize but you’re the only two that really get each other and what the other is going through. It’s late night phone calls, shared venting sessions, comforting the other during panic attacks, seeking each other out throughout the day, spending more time at Rafael’s house with his vovo, etc. Rafael becomes your comfort, your solace for things that aren’t trauma related, and you become his.
