Violet allowed herself to move forward, holding out her hands for him to take so that she could look at the bands closer, her curiosity getting the better of her. “I figured you were just going for the metro look,” she said softly, her eyes peeking up at him under her hair shyly, feeling foolish for being afraid of him so quickly.
“Nope. I would wear these unless it was absolutely necessary. I hurt people, and I can’t fix that. I put these on for everyone’s protection, even my own.” He sighed, glancing from where she held his wrists up to her face. As their eyes met, a smile spread across his face. “I’ve missed you Vi. I’m glad you’re back.”
