CAUGHT THEM IN THE ACT

***** Zenith's first life ***** 

========================== 

***Dawn's POV***

==========================

"Blake, I am really scared. I don't want to go." Emily cried against his chest and hugged him tightly, so he couldn't go after Dawn.

She felt a little bit better to see the hurt in Dawn's eyes, at the very least, it could compensate for what she had to go through because of her a little.

"I know. I know. I will do everything I can to keep you here, Emily." Blake hugged her back to comfort her. He wished Dawn would be vulnerable like this with him.

Dawn always appeared tough and did not want any help. She was too dominant and independent. She wouldn't cry like this in front of him and would try to solve her problems on her own instead.

Blake wanted Dawn to need him, just like how Emily openly said that she needed him. It made Blake feel like he mattered.
