Summary
You work as a mortician, and after a rough shift, you realize that you can't keep hiding who you are from Jack. So despite the anxiety it induces, you come out to him.

“It… it made me reflect on my life,” you say.
Jack tilts his head to the side. “Oh?”
You continue talking. “And I remembered how terrible people can be. Then I…. Then I got scared thinking about you.” You lean your body against his. The weight on your shoulders feels so heavy. You don’t think you can keep carrying it any longer.
“I do look frightening, don’t I?” Jack is joking, but you feel outraged nonetheless.
You sit up and bump his shoulder with yours. “Shut up. You know you’re handsome because I remind you almost every day how attractive you are,” you say,
Jack chuckles and kisses your cheek. “Then what’s scary about me? In case you haven’t noticed, dear, you’ve got me wrapped around your finger,” he says.
“That you won’t love me for who I am,” you confess, and you hate how small your voice sounds.
