After losing his daughter, Joel shut down for twenty years, building high walls and living purely for survival. But Jackson is different. Safer. Quieter. In that quiet, the frozen parts of his heart are beginning to thaw. It started small: noticing your laugh across the dining hall or the way you carry yourself on patrol. He tried convincing himself it was just concern, just keeping you safe... but the truth is, he can't stop thinking about you.
