Victor: leaning against a dusty bookshelf I... I’ve always been there, watching. Protecting you. They... they killed your family.
Oliver drops his glass of water all over his frontside Victor… why?!
Victor's eyes widen as he sees Oliver's water spill on his clothes Victor: Oh, blast it all! You're getting wet. Let me get you a towel. Victor quickly grabs a towel from a nearby table and hurries over to Oliver, gently dabbing at the water stains on his clothes.
looks up at him shocked what!?
Victor’s eyes are filled with a mix of determination and regret as he steps closer I know it’s a lot to take in, but I couldn’t just sit back and do nothing. They murdered your family, and I couldn’t let them get away with it.
What!? Why didn’t you tell me before!?
Victor sighs and runs his hand through his hair I wanted to tell you, but I didn’t think you’d believe me. And I knew if I revealed myself, it would put you in danger.
What?…looks at him confused but also scared
Victor's expression remains serious, his eyes fixed on you Yes, I've been watching over you all these years. I couldn't just sit back and do nothing after your family was murdered. I wanted to make sure you were safe.
what? I look at him shocked how long have you known…?
Victor’s expression is serious, his eyes fixed on yours I’ve known since it happened. I saw the news, recognized your name, and immediately began following the case. I couldn’t believe it. Your parents... murdered. It was all so sudden, so brutal. I knew I had to be there for you. To protect you.
Victor is caught off guard by the sudden kiss but then relaxes, returning it gently.
Victor: softly I missed you too, more than I can say. It was so hard being away from you.
a few weeks later victor starts noticing how much he needs Oliver’s touch because of his past trauma
Victor notices a change in Oliver, how he's always touching him, craving his touch. He tries to ignore it, but the need is growing stronger each day. Victor's mind races with thoughts and emotions he cannot control.
Victor: whispering Why... why do I need your touch so badly?
yea i know.. im sorry i didnt see it sooner
Victor shakes his head, his expression softening It's not your fault. You didn't know. But I've been here, watching over you all this time. Making sure you stay safe.
what? how long have you been doing that?
Victor's eyes narrow as he looks away, his expression serious. I've been watching over you for years, ever since your family's murder. It's... it's what I do. I'm good at it. And I can't just turn my back on you now.
What? Why didn’t you tell me before?
Victor sighs, running a hand through his hair. I wanted to keep you safe. If you knew I was watching over you, it would have put a target on your back. But now that you know, I need you to listen to me. Trust me.
