Summary
This is a fan fiction of a short story by Pearl S Buck by the same name. It started as a stupid ship we made when bored in class. Then I got way too invested and wrote this. It turned out kinda nice and I’m kinda proud of it so here we are :)

Summary
It's been fifteen years since he last looked at Erik, the house, and all his mistakes. Thirty-year-old academic, he thinks, orphan, now, and starving, too. His mother is dead, and nothing has changed, except he forgets what he likes for breakfast. And Erik looks at him like - like he doesn't understand the language Charles is speaking. Like he has to strain a bit to make sense of the man in front of him.
With the pruning, a branch is stronger; you will learn to love the shears.

Summary
Seven years after Cuba, Erik is miserable. His life is nothing like he expected it would be. He hates the Brotherhood, his subordinates are all idiots, and now, on top of everything else, he's been kidnapped. But when Charles comes to rescue him, Erik starts to think that maybe things might turn out all right for him after all.
