Parker’s Demon - Chapter 2 Part 2

There were missions where Aoi never needed to lift a finger. Then there were the quieter moments, the ones that snuck up on him. Parker made sure he ate. Encouraged him to try new things. Christmas presents that showed he had been paying attention. And whenever Parker had to go out of town for work, he'd call Aoi to check on him, and when he returned home, he always had gifts just for Aoi. They talked, and Aoi opened up enough to tell Parker what it was like growing up with Laxus, but never told him about Bergstrand.
