Summary
Dressrosa told from Sabo and Koala's POVs.
~
“Sabo.” Her voice was much steadier than his had been, his name rolling off her tongue with a confidence he couldn’t begin to fathom. “I’m broken too.”
Simple words, but they rocked him to his core. His vision clouded with tears he had to blink away, not wanting to miss a moment of seeing her like this, unshakeable and safe. The moonlight that kept him in its shadows washed over her completely, setting her amber hair aglow and turning her pale skin ethereal. She was a flame to his darkness, filling completely the absence of light that engulfed him.
Her hand moved to tangle in his hair, her fingers running along his scalp and sending flames licking down his spine. He couldn’t help but press into her touch.
“Life broke the both of us,” Koala continued. “But it also led us to one another. It fractured me in a way that will never fully heal, but it gave me you so that I could see that I’m not alone. You are not alone, Sabo. You aren’t the only one who lives in the dark, who feels those shadows as constant companions.”
Koala leaned in, once again pressing her forehead to his.
“It just means that we get to burn even brighter.”Bookmarked by Elonemaa
