I woke up to the early morning light streaming through the curtains, casting a gentle glow over the room. Jake lay beside me, his face softened in sleep, his chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm. Watching him like this, so calm and unguarded, a wave of warmth and affection washed over me.
I couldn't believe it. After everything, after all the twists and trials and pain. Just yesterday, I had thought I was going to die, never going to see the light of day again. Especially when Moira shot Kurt and I watched him bleed to death. All my hope was lost at that moment, I knew I was going to die. Jackson wasn't going to spare me, and in a way, dying was better than going back to him. I couldn't imagine going through the trauma again… but then, my true Prince Charming found me. Jake found me and rescued me.
