Feeling brave

julietfor three years i've been relying on aldric.after my parents died, he swooped in to take care of me.it's not fair to him. i know i'm holding him back.i'm a ballerina, but only in private.i'm also little...but only in private.my fantasy of aldric being the daddy i crave is just that, a fantasy.what if i admit what i really want and i lose him? aldricwith our age difference, i know we have an unconventional relationship.there's no place i'd rather be than with juliet.she's my little, even if she doesn't realize it.we live together. i take care of everything for her while she grieves.if this is all i ever get with juliet, i will take it.she's mine even though i've never told her.i could take a risk and ask for more, but what if i lose her?
