Summary
You left without letting him hold the weight of it.
When your father fell ill, you folded your grief into something small and private, convincing yourself that loving Xavier meant sparing him. You didn’t want him burdened by hospital corridors, by sleepless nights, by the quiet terror of losing a parent. So you stepped away. You told yourself it was selfless. Necessary.
But Xavier has never wanted half of you.
He wanted the exhaustion, the fear, the anger, the fragile pieces you tried to hide. He would have carried them without complaint, without question. Instead, he was left with silence.
Now you’re back—hired as the band’s stage director, practical and composed, pretending the distance between you is manageable. Professional. Safe.
But nothing has changed.
Not the way his gaze lingers too long. Not the way he moves around you like you’re something breakable and precious. Not the way the space between you feels less like air and more like an ache.
There is an emptiness stretching between you both—years of unsaid things, unshed tears, unfinished love.
And every time you stand across from him under the stage lights, you feel yourself trying to cross it.
