the shells of a ruined man(mini scene) -
noi glanced over to the man he was forced to marry, the man he once loved, eryn marshall, in a drunken state.
this was nothing new- they hated eachother and were okay with that.
but noi truly could never be okay with any of it, he could never be okay with the boy he was so fascinated by, despising every last aspect of his own person.
god noi couldnât bear to see his husband tear himself apart each night, eryn drowning himself in fancy wines while sitting in his empty bathroom. alone.
as much as noi couldnât stand caring about eryn, he couldnât help but feel his presence was needed tonight.
as thoughts raced through noiâs head, his feelings of emptiness and guilt screaming at him- eryn scooted a bit closer to him in that moment.
those moments are what sparks a small flame of hope in noi that thereâs still a chance for them in some capacity.
â..do you believe i deserve anything? do..do you even like me-?â, eryn muttered, resting his head on noiâs shoulder.
all noi did was gently sigh and kiss erynâs forehead, while proceeding to fix his shirt collar.
âdonât be ridiculous, marshall. you deserve the world, in full honesty.â as noi rambled on about erynâs worth and the positive impact heâs had on others, all eryn could bring himself to do was cry.
therefore noi adapted to this newfound circumstance.
â..i enjoy your company, my darling ghost.â is what noi muttered to the teary eyed boy in his arms.
and thatâs the last time either of these men shared a moment that didnât have rising tensions slipped into it.
thatâs the last time eryn remembers being anything more than the shells of a ruined man.
