SAMUEL
I am drowning
There is no sight of land
Remi's touch easily brought up the goosebumps he desired as well as a little shiver from Sam, a quiet sigh escaping his lips. Even all this time later Remi's upgrade was improving his life, making each experience real for him.
"Hm. That's sad." He frowned. Sam had never liked a sad ending, had usually chosen to adapt fairytales where the evil dragon died at the end and the knight got married happily ever after...not ones where the knight's princess forgot him and they fell apart. It wasn't even a good sad ending. Just one that faltered out, faded away...nothing that felt like them.
Perhaps it was only a dream, but he found it troubled him.
"I can promise you it would not have been intentional to make you upset. I have always loved you too much for that. From the first time we were close, really." He let himself slide back down, his hands pushing into Remi's hair. "But the thing about firsts, Remi, is that if neither of us had them anymore...we could make more. Real ones. Ones that weren't just firsts for you and not for me. If...if something is as good as this, it's worth going through those first hurdles a few times, right?"

You are coming down with me
Hand in unlovable hand
