"I'm sorry for yelling at you" started Cody, cleaning the new window that replaced the one he broke days prior.

"It's alright. I know you have your moments." Said Euan, polishing Cody's desk.

"Emmit. He is trying to gather people. He made a Wattpad account. It's ridiculous. The corporation only made the account to watch over Devin and now Emmit is barging in trying to get the eyes all on him! Knowing that no good bastard he is probably going to make me seem terrible- like I don't care! Like I'm a goddamn monster!"

"Calm down. We need to watch your anger outbursts." He walked over to Cody and carefully led him to his chair. "Sit.. I will make you some tea."

Cody sighed and was about to protest. He was shushed by Euan lightly putting his hand on his shoulder. "Take a break.. remember why we started this. We are here to protect Devin.. We are here to save Lacch. Now breathe.. What kind of tea do you want?"

"Early grey creme." He just muttered, taking in Euan's words.

Euan walked across the room and started to boil some water in the kettle. He grabbed the teapot and put two teaspoons of tea leaves in the steeping net. "My sibling, Lacch. They are long dead. You know this. You sometimes forget it though. You have to remember you are a victim of Emmit."

Euan walked over to Cody and lightly put his hand on his cheek. "You're doing wonderful. Everyday I see you break out from Emmit's hold more and more. I see you becoming more of yourself. Breaking free from that violent shell he forced you into." He placed his head against Cody's. "I will continue to guide you. Guide you to your true self. You may not be real now. But you are becoming real. Ever since I first started seeing you, I knew I would be by your side. I knew I would fight for your freedom. I knew I would do all in my power to help you.. This is why I think I need to dismiss Em. Her being here is dangerous. Demons are hard to work with and well.. I hate to say it but your existence harms her. I feel her. She is loyal to us, but can be compelled by Emmit. It will only be so long till she starts to want to help him, protect him. It would be safer to let her go before that can happen."

Cody sighed and put his hand against Euan's cheek. "If we dismiss Em.. we won't have her to help us. God knows Emmit will summon a demon of his own. We need Em. She is struggling with existence, but I think I know a doctor who can help her. Please.. let us keep her here.. not to mention she is such a darling to have around. A bit tense at times, but when she lets herself relax, the little Crow flies beautifully"

Euan sighed and shook his head, standing up straight.

"You're not jealous, are you? Of how I appreciate her?" Asked Cody, a small smile forming on his face. "You know I only have eyes for you."

" Enough. I'm not jealous. I'm also not ready for a relationship. Cody. I very much so care for you, but please.. let's keep words like that at bay. Just for a bit longer." Euan gave him a smile. "You know I'm struggling. With Lacch.. I love my little sibling. To have them be forced into the world they are in right now.. I don't have time or energy for myself, let alone a partner."

The kettle let out a whistle. Euan quickly walked over and poured the water into the blue teapot. He smiled as he walked back over to Cody. "But all that doesn't mean I don't love you."

Cody smiled and took the teapot. "When I'm around you, I'm at peace. I don't hear Emmit in my head. I don't hear him forcing me to be someone I'm not. I'm able to be.. well.. me. I'm able to control myself. I'm able to feel love, pain, regret. It's all so amazing. You make me feel real. Like an actual person." Cody put out his hand and smiled at Euan.

Euan slowly reached out and held his hand. The two of them sat there, smiling and at peace.
