Earth

Cami was still on her knees, her face buried deep in her hands. She could hear Ophelia crying beside her, but she didn't dare to look. She heard all the commotion going on around them, but she kept her face hidden. That is until an unknown voice forced her to look up. There was a woman, she had never seen her before, but she seemed to know them. Talia was nowhere to be seen and by the look Remi was giving the woman, Camila could only guess she was responsible for that. Everyone else seemed calm, and she didn't look like she posed a threat, but Cami just couldn't focus enough to listen to what she was saying. Her head was pounding and her vision blurry from the tears and puffy eyes. Talia was gone, and who knows when or if they'd get to see her again. She kept trying to suppress her sobs but a few kept escaping her here and there. The small group began to break apart, but she couldn't move. She stayed on her knees in the same spot. Her gaze was glue to the floor, making her jump when a hand was placed on her should. She slowly looked up and the tears immediately came flowing back out when she saw her cousin's face.

Ezra carefully helped her up and pulled her into his arms. Over a year of not seeing her, and now he had to watch her cry. It broke his heart more than what he would have imagined. He simply stood there, holding her, as he listened to the unknown woman's instructions. He was to be one of the leaders? Why him? He didn't necessarily have a problem with it, but he couldn't help but to wonder what it was about him that made him one of the chosen leaders. He was going to ask, but just as she had appeared the woman disappeared leaving him with more questions than answers. Camila continued to cry silently in his arms and he couldn't help but to feel rage accumulating inside him. This Kain character had hurt not just Talia, but everyone around her. If it's a war he wanted then a damn war is what he was going to get.




Remi was oblivious to everything going on around him. The walls could have came crumbling down and he wouldn’t of noticed. To him, his entire world was laying lifeless in his hands. His eyes were glued to his sister’s face, waiting, hoping for any sign that she was still in there. Her breathing was slowly becoming more shallow and so was his. He held her tightly in his arms, rocking her gently back and forth until he realized that she was being taken from him. ”Let her go-!” he attempted to scream it but because of his damaged throat it only came out as a growl. The woman made eye contact with Remi and she explained where Talia was being taken and he couldn’t help but not trust her. After all he didn’t know her. They were in a strange place with a strange woman and his sister had just been nearly killed. The woman explained why they were there and who had hurt his sister, and the only thing that stuck with him was the name Kain. That was it. That’s who he had to kill. The woman continued to speak, he even heard his name being mentioned, but he dismissed it all until she was finished. ”Take me to my sister” he half demanded, but she didn’t seem to listen. She just left. What the hell kind of joke was this? ”Where the hell did you take her?!” he yelled at nothing in particular, mostly the air now. He knew Greyson was there beside him, but his mind was only thinking about one thing right now. He had to get to Talia. He was no longer sad, only angry. No, angry didn’t begin to describe it. He had never felt this amount of rage in his life. A small red glow began to appear around his hands as more and more negative energy accumulated inside his body. To a normal human’s eye, he would have seemed possessed. ”Where is she?! And where is this son of a bitch Kain-! I'll kill him!!”. His eyes were beginning to swell with tears again, but this time from rage.

Camila could hardly contains her tears, not that she was even trying. The thought of Talia dying and not ever getting to see or speak to her or even be teased by her ever again made her tears come even faster. Ezra held her tightly, as if she would break is he let her go, and they stayed that way for several long minutes. Cami could hear Remi yelling, and it only made things worse. She could only imagine how he felt. If she felt this horrible and Talia wasn’t even her family, she could only imagine what was going through her brother’s mind right now. He had every right to yell and be angry and cry. Finally, Cami gathered the courage to stand up straight and wiped her tears. Her eyes were puffy, as if she had been crying all night, and her nose a bit red.

Ezra couldn’t help but to be worried about her. ”She’ll be okay...”. Though he said, he didn’t know for sure himself. The damage done to Talia’s body was the work of a savage, and odds of her surviving something so brutal were almost none. He couldn't say this to Cami, of course. He had to stay positive for her sake, and everyone else that needed it. It seemed like Talia’s brother would be needing it the most. Ezra watched as the scene played out in front of him. Willow’s hand smacked into Remi’s face and he immediately stopped. He watched as Remi’s expression changed from rage to shock to completely devastated. Ezra wasn’t sure how close they were, but judging by the look on Willow’s face, she must have been close to Talia as well. Ezra stayed near Camila. She needed him, even if he couldn’t do much. He slowly led her back to where everyone was gathered, keeping an arm around her shoulders.

Cami was exhausted. All the crying had taken a big toll on her. The sounds of despair and rage in the room hadn’t helped the situation. She quietly followed Ezra to the rest of the group, keeping her head down. She only glanced up for a minute and saw Ophelia in Nathan’s arms. Cami’s legs felt weak. She eventually made eye contact with her best friend and her stomach sunk. It was like witnessing the crime all over again. Cami could feel the lump in her throat slowly forming again.




Remi’s heart was beating so fast he was on the verge of a heart attack. He couldn’t see or think clearly, all he cared about was being with his sister. He needed to see her. What if she didn’t make it. What if she died, and wasn’t there to say goodbye? The energy inside Remi’s body only grew. He could hear WIllow and Greyson attempting to calm him down, but it was useless. He was...there were no words to describe how he was feeling. He never imagine he could feel so many negative things all at once. He could feel another scream building in his throat, and that’s when he felt a hand hit his face. He blinked a few times, a couple of tears rolling down his face, and stared at willow with round eyes. The negative energy in his body slowly began to settle down, causing the red glow to dissapear and his eyes to return to their usual color. A sudden wave of exhaustion washed over him, and he wanted nothing more than to let himself drop on the floor and lay there for a while. Maybe forever. He let out a shaky sigh and looked at the ground. Greyson was still beside him, and he commented on Willow’s aggressive way of getting his attention, but he was grateful. He wiped his eyes with the back of his hand and looked up at her, muttering a thank you that was almost too quiet to hear. He then quietly turned around, making eye contact with his best friend for a brief moment before placing a hand on his shoulder and giving him a silent thank you. He didn’t have to say anything out loud. Greyson would just know. He looked down at Kelsey, she was terrified, and it was mostly his fault. He thought it best not to approach her now. He’d apologize to his god-daughter later. He continued walking, stuffing his hands in his pockets, and stepped out the first door he found. He caught a glimpse of Matty on the way out, his eyes began to swell again but he quickly blinked them away. He had to get out. He had to get away from everything for a while. He kept walking, he didn’t know where he was going, but he didn’t care.

Cami attempted to look away from Ophelia and Nathan. She knew she would start crying as soon as she and Ophelia’s eyes met, but then her best friend walked over to her. She guessed she saw the pain in her eyes. They had bots almost lost a best. There was still a possibility that she didn’t make it, and thought killed her. Ophelia pulled her into a soft embrace and Cami bit her lip. She had just stop crying, she didn’t want to start again. But despite how hard she tries, the tears escaped her yet again. She hugged her best friend back as tightly as she could, as if she let her go she’d lose her as well. Finally Ophelia spoke about finding a bedroom or somewhere to sleep and Camila barely managed to nod. She was exhausted and she could tell Ophelia was too. She slowly pulled away from her, gently wiping her tears, and glanced at Ezra.

Ezra was ready to get some rest as well. After everything that had just happened and watching Camila practically cry herself dry, it was time to call it a night. ”I’ll help look” he told them both before glancing over at Willow and Lucas. She looked pretty shaken up as well. He quickly announced that he would be back and quietly walked over to the toddler and his mother, who were accompanied by Eva and his best friend. ”I’m going to help Cami find a room or some sort place to sleep, so I’ll see you tomorrow” he said before Patti g his best friend on the shoulder. This had been the most eventful visit he had ever experienced, and not Ina good way. Before leaving, he kneeled down in front of Lucas, gently ruffling his hair. ”Goodnight kiddo. Let’s hang out tomorrow, yeah?” he said cheerfully, relieved that Evangeline had been there to keep the boy from having to deal with the disaster going on around them. He then go to his feet and gave his mother a soft smile before turning and heading back to Camila. ”Lets go, it’s pretty”




Remi had been wandering the halls for who knows how long. The house was quiet, the halls were dark, he walked by several rooms that seemed to be prepared for them to stay in but he couldn’t sleep, not now. His mind in the clouds, he continued to walk until a sudden collision made him stumble backwards a bit. He looked up a little startled to see Mathew’s face, but only for a few seconds before the boy looked at the ground. Remi stood still and silent for several seconds, not knowing what to do or say. What was he supposed to say to comfort him, when he needed just as much comfort himself. He let out a shaky sigh and took a step forward, gently wrapping his arms around the slightly shorter boy and pulled him close. He still didn’t know what to say, but he hoped this was enough. Remi held him tightly and rested his chin on the other blonde’s head. Even if just for a moment, he just wanted to be there for him. Even if he was breaking down himself.

Camila was physically and mentally exhausted. Ophelia and her parted ways and Camila turned back to Ezra. "Let's try to find a place to sleep like Eric said" he suggested, and Cami just nodded. A bed and a good night's sleep was much needed right now. She would probably be up early in the morning to try to find the where Talia was being kept. Even if her friend was still unconscious and couldn't talk back, she at least wanted to see her. See that she was still breathing. Cami walked silently alongside Ezra, who kept his gaze straight ahead. He looked deep in thought and Cami didn't want to disturb him. He probably had a lot on his mind. His first day back after almost two years and this is what he comes to. Cami let out a soft sigh, unintentionally catching her cousin's attention.

Ezra kept his gaze on the hallway ahead, glancing to the side from time to time to try to find a good place to stay in. The unknown woman's words kept circling in his head. He was to be one of the leaders. He had never done anything of the sort. Not to mention that it was mow up to him and the other four guys to find find this Kain character and make him pay for what he had done. Honestly though, Ezra had no idea how they would go about doing that. The woman said herself that Kain was very powerful, and they were just a bunch of teens. The odds of finding and beating him were looking pretty slim. Deep in his thoughts he heard a sigh come from Cami and he looked down at her in concern. "Are you okay?". It was a dumb question, but he needed to ask anyway. She just nodded and rested her head on his arm. He smiled softly and slid an arm around her shoulders. Finally they found a room. There was another empty room right next door, but Cami asked if he could stay with her until she fell asleep, so if course he agreed. He didn't necessarily want to be alone either.




Remi wasn't at all surprised when Mathew started crying in his arms. Something about it just felt…right. As if this was the only place he was allowed to cry, in Remi's arms. Remi himself was out of tears. He wasn't sad anymore, not one bit. He was angry, frustrated but mostly just exhausted. His short rampage earlier took a lot out of him, and now he just wanted to rest. He ran a hand throw the smaller blonde's hair and let him cry as much as he needed. He didn't say anything. He didn't think he needed to, he just held him tightly. He couldn't say everything was going to be okay, because he wasn't too sure of that himself. After several minutes, Matt card down the slightest bit. Remi let out an involuntary yawn and knew it was time for bed, but he couldn't just leave the other. "I'll help you find somewhere to sleep" he suggested as he slowly broke the hug, taking hold of his hand instead. He continued walking in the same direction he had been before until he found an empty room. It looked comfortable, and the bed was big enough for two. "I'll stay until you fall asleep…if you want" he suggested awkwardly as he rubbed the back of his neck. Perhaps he shouldn't have asked at all. Maybe all that Matty needed was to be alone.

Camila took longer to wake up than usual. The fact that she wouldn't fall asleep the night before, despite her exhaustion, didn't help any either. When she finally did fall asleep she had a series of nightmares, all involving someone close to her being hurt. When she finally woke up she felt as if she hadn't slept all night. She almost immediately realized she was alone. It was very unlike Ezra to get up early, much less before her, but she guessed he was still a little uneasy himself. She sighed and rolled onto her side, pulling the blankets over her head. She didn't want to get up. She didn't want to face the day, or face what could possibly be bad news. She thought of what would happen if Talia hadn't made it through the night and a sick feeling ran through her entire body. Maybe she could go back to sleep. "Rise and shine, sleeping beauty" a somewhat deep voice said, followed by a slight movement of the mattress. She quickly pushed off the covers and looked around the room, even looked beside her, but there was nothing. Was she hearing things from a different room? It was likely. Her abilities often activated on their own when under stress or anything upsetting. It didn't sound like anyone's voice, though. "Come on, up up up!". Cami jumped into a sitting position and looked beside her. There a small, white rabbit staring up at her with big black eyes. Surely that wasn't the voice. "Good morning!" came the voice again as the rabbit jumped into her lap. Cami let out a surprised gasp and stared down at the creature in awe. "Did you just'?".

"Yeah, yeah. I'm a talking rabbit. You're telling me you haven't seen worse?". Cami was at a loss for words and the rabbit didn't seem to want to waste anytime so he continued to explain. "I'm you're muse and I can be whatever you want. I guess you have a thing for rabbits". Cami continued to stare, still speechless, as the creature hopped off of her. "Unless you prefer this" He said before transforming into an exact copy of Grayson. Camila's cheek went from ivory to pin to an unhealthy shade of red. "How did you-? Th-that bunny, the bunny's fine!" she stuttered and the creature immediately returned to its original form. "I thought so, now come on, you have school" the bunny explained, causing Cami to immediately jump out of bed.




Ezra had woken up rather early for his usual wake up time. He never did find a point in waking up early now that he didn't have to go to school, but his mind had a bit too much going on and it prevented him from falling asleep again. He rolled out of bed, being careful not to wake his sleeping cousin and headed out of the room to find a bathroom. It was an enormous house, but surprisingly enough, he found one rather quickly equipped with everything anyone needed. This was more like a hotel than a house. The male did his usual morning routine which mainly consisted of a long hot shower and walked refreshed and a little lighter out of the small yet nice bathroom. He began wandering the halls, wondering what else he could find, until a subtle smell of food reached him. His stomach rumbled as if by instinct and he followed the scent to find a larger kitchen and Eric and Grayson at the stove. It looked like he wasn't the only one up early. He wondered if the younger teens would be going to school. She almost regretted not waking Camila up. She would never miss a day of school for anything, but he figured she needed a day off. "Something smells delicious" he said as he walked up to the two.




Remi's eyes slowly slid open, adjusting to the light in the room. It was morning? When had he fallen asleep? He looked beside him but Matty was gone. Who knows how long ago he had left. It was probably for the best. Remi's offer to stay with him the night before wasn't his best move. He sighed and rolled our of bed, stretching his muscles a little. His entire body was tense and his eyes burned. After a second or two he got to his feet and headed out of the room. He had to find Talia. She had to be awake by now. He kept telling himself this over and over, but no matter where he looked all he found were rooms and bathrooms. Finally he saw a light up ahead, accompanied by a smell of freshly baked food. He walked into the very large and equipped kitchen and his eyes fell on the group of guys. He remained silently, not really know what to say. Any other day he would have greeted them all with a compliment and a wink. But it wasn't the day for flirting. Not today. He leaned against the door frame and watched them silently, unsure if any of them had noticed him yet.

Camila managed to find a bathroom, take a quick shower, get dressed and ready for school in under 30 minutes. She made it back to the room and saw her books were all set on top of her bed, ready to go as well. She looked at the bunny and smiled. ”Thank you, um… what’s your name?”. The small rabbit hopped off the bed and towards the exit as he spoke. ”Just call me sound”[/color] he said and hopped his way out the door. [b]”Grab your things and follow me” he instructed and Camila immediately did so. After a few minutes of walking, a strong smell of food suddenly reached her. She opened her mouth to ask Sound what it could be but he was gone. She then decided to follow it and ended up in the kitchen. Several of the teen were already up. It looked like Ezra, Eric and Grayson were already making breakfast for everyone. Her cheeks dusted a light pink at the sight of her crush and she looked away, noticing Remi and Willow by the door frame. Remi still looked devastated. Camila could certainly relate. She sat her things down in a corner n the floor and walked up close to the boys, stopping next to her cousin. ”D-do you need any help?”. Her voice was quiet and faint, with a hint of exhaustion still in it.

Ezra watched as Cami walked over to him and the other two and smiled softly at her question. She seemed to be nervous, though he wasn’t sure why, and it looked like she still needed sleep. ”That’s alright, we’re almost done” he said, ruffling her hair a bit. ”Why didn’t you stay in bed? One day away from school won’t hurt you” he almost laughed. He immediately shook her head and muttered something about how the first day of school was important. Ezra just sighed in defeat. He knew he wouldn’t be able to convince her to stay even if he tried all morning. ”Alright but if you feel too tired just call me and I’ll go pick you up” he suggested. She nodded in agreement but he knew she wouldn’t call, no matter how tired she felt. The only thing that could get her to come back would be the news of Talia waking up, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case now.




Remi watched silently as the three boys worked on breakfast. He barely managed half of a smile when his best friend waved at him and immediately went back to staring blankly at nothing in particular, only to be pulled back again by something tugging on his leg. He looked down in confusion and smiled the tiniest bit when he saw the small boy. ”Hey kiddo” he said softly as he meant down and scooped him up in his arms. “How’d you sleep?”. Remi turned to look at the boy’s mother and shrugged. ”I slept” he answered simply, not really sure how else to answer. It is true it had slept through the whole night, but that was most likely because he was worn out from using all his energy. Also, the fact he hadn’t slept alone had probably helped as well, but he wasn’t willing to share that part. Willow and Grayson would surely tease him about it. ”What about you two?” he asked, referring to Lucas as well. He wasn’t exactly in the mood for conversation, but he knew his friend was trying to help and talking about other things might possibly distract him, even if just for a minute. He played with Lucas’ small hand as he and Willow spoke, looking up just ling enough to see a certain small blonde boy walk in. He immediately redirected his gaze back to Willow, as if he hadn’t even noticed he was there.

Ezra assured Cami that they were almost finished with breakfast and that she didn't need to do anything, but regardless, Cami wanted to help. She looked around and glanced back at him for a moment as she spoke. "I'm going to set the table" she abounded quietly and began looking through cabinets to find cups, spoons, plates and whatever else they would need to eat. She watched out of the corner of her eye as Grayson walked over to Remi, probably to see how he was doing. Cami would have gone herself, but she didn't know what to say or what to do so she continued on her mission to make sure everyone had their utensils. There were some smaller cups and spoons for the kids as well. As far as she knew, there were only two toddlers in the house, and Kelsey was nowhere to be seen. Cami guessed she was still asleep. The events from the day before probably wore her out. Without a word, she began migrating the items to the table, offering Mathew a little smile once she saw him sitting by himself. He seemed to be just as destroyed over what happened to Talia as she was.

Ezra simply nodded to Camila's suggestion to set the table. She needed something to do, to distract her, so why not. He was about to leave the kitchen to go on the mission Eric had given him when Delaney volunteered to help. "That's okay by me" he said with a little smile, discretely nudging Eric with his elbow. "We'll need something to carry them back" he said as he bag looking for something big enough. Finally he found a plastic bowl and pulled it out. He inspected it to make sure it wasn't dirty or broken and turned to the blonde. "Okay let's go. AND I'll see if we can find Eva too". Ezra added before he headed out of the kitchen and out into the many hallways. He had no idea where to start looking. Was there a backyard somewhere? A greenhouse maybe? The house was enormous so there had to be a lot of yard space. But which way was the yard?

Remi pretended to only be paying attention to Willow but he watched as Mathew walked over and sat by himself. Why was he always by himself. Certainly he couldn't enjoy it. No one likes being along. However, Lucas' enthusiastic voice brought him back to reality and he laughed softly at the boy's comment. A real laugh, even though it was weak and short, would do him good. "I won't say a word" Remi whispered back to him and hooked pinkies with the boy as a sign of a promise. Lucas looked ecstatic and Remi almost wanted to smile. Little kids really were amazing sometimes. "Hey little man". Remi looked up to see Grayson greeting the little boy and then the same comment was directed at him. Remi lifted an eyebrow, catching onto his friend's teasing. "Little? Trust me, there's nothing little about be". Remi responded with a half hearted wink. He still wasn't in the mid to flirt, but perhaps it could distract him, even if just for a moment. "Where's my little princess?" he asked, noticing Kelsey was nowhere to be seen.

Cami finished setting the table, her eyes wandering back and forth between Nathan and Grayson. Nathan seemed to be on a mission to get Ophelia some breakfast. Cami knew her best friend well enough to know that the bagel and cream cheese was for her. She smiled softly to herself. Nathan really was such a good guy. Grayson seemed to be busy talking to Remi. She made a mental note to say hello to him later. She wanted to speak to Remi as well. Maybe he knew something about Talia. Cami's stomach turned at the memories at what had happened the day before and suddenly she had lost all her appetite. She sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. She wanted to leave, but she needed sonething to eat. Preferably something light like a fruit. Which meant she'd have to wait until Ezra and Delaney made it back. She sat quietly on a stool to watch the rest of them go about their business. Mathew seemed to have the same idea as her. Cami wanted to talk to him, but he didn't seem to be in the mood for socializing.

Remi listened to Greyson and Willow talk about their kids and Grey mentioned Kelsey being with his muse. Remi cocked an eyebrow and looked at him. "I didn't get one of those" he muttered, not really caring much about it. He rolled his eyes when Grey referred to him as "his princess" and smiled a little. "Thanks dear, but I'm not hungry" he teased as he carefully handed Lucas over to his mother and stretched a little. "I'll just get a drink" he informed him so he wouldn't get worried. "But you're oh so thoughtful" he chimed as he dramatically kissed his cheek and walked past him to the fridge. He found a small bottle of orange juice and opened it up, immediately drinking from it. His mind knew he had to eat, but his stomach didn't agree. Remi said he'd be going to get Kelsey, so Remi decided to sit and enjoy his juice until he came back with his goddaughter. He walked over to the corner of the table and say down. Not two seconds later he was staring off into space again, completely unaware of Mathew being just a few feet away.




Ezra had absolutely know idea how Delaney knew where the back yard was. The mansion was enormous and they had let even been there a day. Somehow though, she led them straight to the large variety of fruits. "Wow". Being from Spain he was used to seeing big amounts of fresh fruit and vegetables, he just didn't expect to see them here. "I'm suddenly really home sick" he chuckled, looking at the scenery. He looked at the bowl then back at the fruits. It seemed like Delaney was thinking the same thing. Too many fruits and not enough bowl. He looked around for a moment and noticed something near the back door. "We'll look at that!" he smiled as he walked back over and picked up one of the two woven baskets. It was a little bigger than the bowl and had handles to make it easier to carry. He walked back over and sat the basket on the ground. Time to fill it up.

”Do you want to get the bushes while I get the trees? Or vice versa, or does it not matter?”. Ezra contemplated her question for a moment trying to think of what could be easier for her. He could just as easily pick from either, and he wasn’t sure which she wanted to do. ”It doesn’t matter” he responded with a soft shrug before picking up a basket. ”I think it will be faster if we do the trees together and then the bushes” he thought out loud as he examined the height of the trees surrounding them. He figured it would be much easier for her to lower the branches for him and help him pick off the ripest fruits. She seemed to be as much of a fan of them as he was. Thinking about t mire, he felt the need to ask. ”How did you find this place so fast? If you don’t mind me asking I mean”. It was odd talking to the girl just the two of them like this. Usually Eric was around. That reminded him, he’d have to out in a good word for his best friend somewhere in between all the fruit picking.

Cami had been sitting alone for several minutes. She hadn’t realized it, but she had been subtly staring at Grayson who was happily chatting away with Remi. Even when the blonde left the group, Cami continued to watch the man. Her cheeks dusted light pink when she finally realized what she was doing. She looked around cautiously, seriously hoping no one had noticed. Luckily everyone seemed involved in what they were doing. Even Ophelia stayed by Nathan as she began eating her bagel. Not a minute later the brunette got to her feet and made her way over to Cami. ”What’s up buttercup? Not hungry?” she greeted and asked at the same time. Cami shook her head softly but smiled at her best friend as she took a seat beside her. She looked rested, and seemingly in a better mood. That made Cami feel a little better. Cami was about to explain that all she wanted was some fruit so she could get to school but Ophelia continued to speak, almost whispering something about “man canny”. It took Cami a second to realize that she was talking about Grayson and her naturally light pink cheeks slowly morphed into a dark shade of red. ”L-Lia-!”. She covered her face with her hands, or as much as her face as she could, fully expecting some sort of giggle as her best friend’s response. Thankfully the subject of the conversation was not within ear shot or she would have fainted right then and there.




Remi’s mind was in a completely different planet. He could hear voices coming from miles away, even though they were right beside him, and all the images were blurred. There was one voice that cut thigh the rest. Someone said hello to him. Remi blinked, realizing he had been staring at his juice bottle the entire time, and looked up to meet the eyes staring back at him. ”Ah, hey kiddo” he said after having immediately recognized the eyes. He older blonde couldn’t help but to stare at the other for a few seconds, clearing his throat a bit after he realized that must have been very obvious. ”Why’d you run off this morning?” he teased. He hadn’t actually been expecting to see the boy when he woke up but he had to admit he was quite disappointed when he didn’t. It would have been nice to wake up next to someone that Remi actually had feelings for, for once.
