Aw T-T I loved the angst and angst-fluff this chapter, thank you again for writing another great chapter with deep characters! I really hope Flea lets down his walls someday towards MC. Totally understanding his position of wanting to pull away and not hurt MC cuz he cares too much for them. I was the same, took a very loving person and lot of time for me to finally stop running and face my fears. I hope he can do the same one day ;v; ❤️
