she    was    so    vulnerable    in    this    moment.    unable    to    stop    the    stream    of    tears    that    fell    from    blue    eyes.    so    emotionally    open,    her    guard    completely    down.    the    only    comfort    was    calloused    fingers    on    soft    skin.    

ironic    wasn’t    it    ?    the    girl    known    to    be    walking    sunshine    had    finally    cracked.    emotions    consumed    her    and    she    could    no    longer    hold    them    in...    and    now    that    they    were    out...    there    was    no    way    to    stop    them.    this    wasn't    her    normal,    she    was    the    happy    one.    the    one    who    anyone    could    come    to    and    know    they    would    be    bathed    in    light.    look    at    her    now.    a    wreck.    an    absolute    mess    in    a    friends    hands,    unable    to    compose    herself.

@greatburdn​ said ❝ [text] I can’t stop thinking about you.

it was release day. the day harry was leaving ravencroft. the day that harry had been looking forward to for seven years. but now that it was finally here, the gates opening, his release papers signed . . . the fear was settling into his stomach and becoming overwhelming. but of course, cameras are flashing to catch the next headline photo, videos being recorded, and all he wanted to do was run away. he made mistakes, big mistakes, and even now after atonement he can’t have a moment of peace. not even being allowed a moment to collect himself and readjust to the sunlight of the outside world again.

as the crowds disperse, having captured their photos and videos, harry grips his tote bag of very little belongings tight. now he had to return to the penthouse, to oscorp, where he had to take back his throne in the corporate empire.

but there’s a face he picks out of the few stragglers that he remembers. one that he never wanted to see again. not after what he had done, the murders he committed, and to see just how fucked up he looked upon release. long and unkept hair, eyebags heavy and deep, spirits shattered. however, harry would be lying if he wasn’t even a little bit thankful.

because just past the crowd, finally in view, was aaron. his heart was sinking into his stomach, despite the taller seeming to have tears and a smile on his face.

was he truly happy to see him ? or was his mind playing tricks on him ?

he's known aaron for a while. not as long as he has known peter, but for a decent enough time to consider him trustworthy enough. enough to come to his home without anyone else being present. that's a pretty big step for harry, given he never trusts anyone.

when it suddenly started to downpour, harry sighed and started to consider his options. he really hated being out in the rain. but aaron made it easy. an invitation to stay with him instead.
