Kade took a deep breath and began. "When, I was a little boy, I used to dream of heroes and adventures and there was always a happy ending. I learned that in the real world, there are no happy endings. I lost my sister, when I was 16.  After that, I felt like I was missing something, a piece of me...gone." He looked down, in shame. "I wandered for years, searching. Thinking that maybe I could find a way to fill the emptiness in my hurt.  I learned...to push away my emotions.  I thought that if I just didn't try, feeling anything, that wouldn't feel the emptiness.  But when I met you...the emptiness, was filled up.  You reminded me so much of my sister, her up-beat nature and hope. As we spent more time together, I realized that i'd do anything to protect you, because I didn't want to lose someone else again.  Someone close to me." His eyes were watering now. "But whenever we talk, I'm always awkward because I pushed all my emotions back. I'm not used to using my emotions."
