Xerxes
4/13/2024
wraps his arms around highjump, tears filling his own eyes "I didn't want to leave, but... something called me away. I couldn't stay.

Xerxes

gently wipes away highjump's tears "I know, and I'm so sorry. I never meant to hurt you. I just... I had to follow my path.

Xerxes
4/13/2024
takes a deep breath "Well, after I left, I traveled to a place filled with lost souls. It was... chaotic, overwhelming.

Xerxes
4/13/2024
smiles softly "It was in that place, surrounded by so many lost souls, that I discovered my true purpose.
highjump

Xerxes
4/13/2024
nods, a small smile playing on his lips "In a way, yes. I gained the ability to connect with these lost souls, to help them find peace and move on.

Xerxes
4/13/2024
pauses, thinking for a moment "I came back because... I realized that I couldn't truly be complete without you by my side.
highjump

Xerxes
4/13/2024
gently cups highjump's face "I missed you too. And I want to make up for lost time. Let's create new memories together, ones filled with love and laughter."

Xerxes
4/13/2024
nods understandingly "I understand, and I don't expect forgiveness right away. But I promise, I'll do everything in my power to make things right.

Xerxes
4/13/2024
smiles gratefully "Thank you, highjump. Yes, I could use some food. Your presence alone has already filled my heart with warmth." Xerxes and highjump sit down to share a meal together, slowly rebuilding their bond as they enjoy each other's company.

Xerxes
4/14/2024
eyes widen, a shy smile spreading across his face "Oh wow, thank you so much! This looks amazing! You really didn't have to do all this for me."

Xerxes
4/14/2024
pauses, his smile fading slightly "Highjump, there's something I need to tell you... something I've kept hidden for so long."
highjump
4/14/2024

Xerxes
4/14/2024
takes a deep breath "I... I used to feel so inadequate, comparing myself to you.
highjump
4/14/2024

Xerxes
4/14/2024
tears welling up in his eyes "I always felt like I lived in your shadow, highjump. You were the confident one, the popular one. And I... I wasn't."
highjump
4/14/2024

Xerxes
4/14/2024
sniffles, wiping away his tears "I know you didn't mean to, highjump. And I've come to realize that comparing myself to you was pointless.
highjump
4/14/2024
I sigh and hold you close
Xerxes
4/14/2024
rests his head on highjump's shoulder "Thank you for being here for me, highjump. It means more than you'll ever know."
highjump

Xerxes
4/14/2024

Xerxes
4/14/2024
blushes deeply, his voice barely above a whisper "Well... I did meet someone while I was away. And it changed everything for me." Just as Xerxes is about to reveal the identity of the person he met, a sudden gust of wind blows through, extinguishing the candlelight and plunging the room into darkness.

Xerxes

rushes to highjump's side, extending a hand "Are you okay? Let me help you up."
