Thank you for finding me
And thank you for the care
Sam almost laughed at Loren's statement that he seemed 'no more troubled than other people'; had he ever heard a more affirming statement of his maturation and growth over the last year? The laugh didn't actually reach him though, knowing he'd have to tell Loren of his past now. "Um...I...To put it shortly, my father was very abusive. He..um..kept me trapped inside, beat me...made me Ascended...I didn't leave my house at all until two years ago." Embarrassed now, he looked away. "I had a stutter from anxiety speaking and I could not bear to look at people. It's...better, but not...gone."
The gentle return of the kiss made him smile, Sam holding onto Loren's hand just as determinedly as Loren held onto his own. The snow crunching under their feet and Loren next to them, both of them vulnerable and accepted by the other...he felt a swelling happiness in his heart that he rarely got to.

And fuck you for making me
Think that this life might be fair
