Chapter Text
There are many different ways of dealing with stress. At least that's what the Florida department of health says and whilst it also says that ' any reaction is likely a normal reaction even if it isn’t the same reaction as everyone else', that's not always easy to believe. Not when most people experience a rapid heartbeat, vomiting and dizziness; difficulty concentrating, memory problems, and nightmares; even anxiety, restlessness and changes in appetite.
But no, I, Desmond Miles, have to piss the bed like a fucking child. Granted it's not every night but some nights. It's been like that for years and it's my own embarrassing little secret, sneaking my wet sheets into the wash. This little system had worked brilliantly since the beginning: wake up a few hours before everyone else, wash and dry the sheets, put them back on the bed, and emerge pretending to have just woken up: until one morning, last week, when my little secret became less of a secret and less of just my own.
