continued from Part 1

( Blaine still gets lonely. He still gets sad. But the pit he falls into isn't bottomless.

Author’s Notes: Thanks to the-multicorn for being really sweet at the same time as asking the hard questions and keeping me from getting too lazy, to punkkitten2113 for being a hardnose with a soft heart, to lavender_love00 for crying at the right times, and to countess7 for reassuring me that this story was not esoteric. Any errors are mine.
