A/N: Okay, I noticed a few of you have been a saying my drabbles are too short. But that's the whole point of a drabble! They're supposed to be 100 words, more or less. Therefore, that's how mine are.
Disclaimer: Eoin Colfer owns everything. You'd have to be a complete idiot not to notice that.

I used to be afraid.
My fears weren't just silly phobias. I wasn't afraid of the dark. Or heights. Or spiders. I wasn't even afraid of thunder. But I was afraid. Afraid of losing you, my love.
Of losing you.
When you held me, I would imagine life without you. I would cry, and you would hold me close. It would help me remember that you were there. That you loved me as much as I loved you. No matter what society told us. But maybe that's why I was afraid.
Of your love.
Then everything changed. It was not society who broke our love, but the demons we
had created together. You were taken from me, and now all I have to remind me of you are memories, pictures. And two words. "Be well."
I'm not afraid anymore.
A/N: Another Julius-related drabble. This one is, obviously, Holly/Root. Holly is thinking about Julius and their love, and how he was taken from her. Review!
