He leaned into her palm, aching vulnerability written across his face, his expressive green eyes betraying the fear he relentlessly sought to suppress.
He had locked away the pain of loosing her, focused on his task of guardian yet it had taken just one glance to reawaken the tidal wave of grief that threatened to overwhelm him now.

He knew he could not stay but he so wanted to.
Hope you like it.
