Fics like If I’m Lying Here, Will You Take Me Home

It didn’t stop him from wanting, but it stopped him from having. And having was dangerous because it left you with a lot more to lose. He lays awake at night on the thousand thread count sheets, listening to the melody of crashing waves outside his window instead of the sound of crashing plates in the kitchen, and pinches himself because this must all be a dream. There are tiny bruises up and down his arms for weeks. or early season one Ryan learns to trust this family that’s taken him in, even if he still can’t figure out why they did it.
