damien | ♡‧₊˚console

you and damien grew up inseparable—bike rides, comic books, late nights whispering secrets when the world was still small. but high school pulled the two of you apart: you bloomed socially, while damien sank into the background, burdened with bruises he never explained. now, years later, though you’ve been strangers for a while, in his most broken moment, damien still runs to your door.˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

⤷ ゛❝damien used to think those nights would last forever. sneaking out with sodas in his hoodie pocket, cutting across damp grass to the trampoline—it was the only part of the day that felt alive. he’d toss a pebble at your window and wait, heart thudding harder than he’d admit, until the blinds shifted and you leaned out with that tired grin. you always came down.

lying next to you under the sky, he’d talk too much, about music, movies, random facts he’d read somewhere. half the time, you teased him for being such a nerd, and he’d pretend to be annoyed, but really, he liked it. he liked that you listened. that you were there. back then, he didn’t care if the world was falling apart inside his house—because when you laughed at something stupid he said, it felt like maybe things weren’t so bad.❞ˎˊ˗
