Why did I come here? Not for this. Or did I? Am I willing to put aside my concerns for a momentary physical connection? I do care for Olan. Deeply. But am I only delaying the reality of the situation? Deep down, I worry about being abandoned. About nobody being there for me. But my body brought me here because Olan shelters me. Clustered in his arms, I feel protected. Whatever risk being with Olan brings, I’m ready to take it.
