Summary
The first time - the day Tedesco found out - was the worst day of Aldo’s life.
He’d never run from Tedesco before. But then, he’d never been humiliated on this level before. He’d never been hard during one of their arguments before.
Had he?
But he slept now, deeply and dreamlessly, his mind no longer crowded with the guilt and shame and all-consuming fear. Somehow it seemed that a knot Aldo hadn’t known he was carrying in his chest was loosening. Someone knew his secret. And while it hurt that it was Tedesco, it hurt that Tedesco had chosen to use his secret to hurt him, it hurt a lot less than he had imagined it would. There was a sense of being fully seen, fully and finally known, that soothed parts of him that had been hurt for a long longer and a lot worse than this.
Friends, it's not canon to the book (barely canonical to the movie) - I was inspired.
TW: sexual abuse, but Aldo keeps going back for more; happy ending, I promise.Series
