Your heart thundered against your chest. You couldn’t believe that this was happening. Leonard was there, but not as you’d known him. As a version of himself who seemed to think what the Legion were doing was right. You couldn’t believe it, and yet somehow it seemed to make sense.
A sob clawed up your throat but you refused to let it out.
That’s when the door opened.
‘(Y/n)?’
Mick’s voice was soft, but despite that you shifted away from him, scared.
Hurt flashed behind his eyes before he glanced over his shoulder and then offered his hand out to you. ‘C’mon,’ he said gruffly.
You looked worriedly between him and the door over his shoulder.
‘Kid, this opportunity ain’t gonna come up again.’
You swallowed any doubts you had about Mick and took his hand, allowing him to lead you away from the Legion, from the prison cell.
You had a million and one questions to ask; emotions bubbled too close together. And yet all you could do was mumble, ‘Thank you,’ and squeeze his hand briefly, hoping that he might just be back with you all shortly.
