AO3 | Chapter 8

AN: Ok so finally back from a long vacation and catching up on posting! This was a totally different fic for me and I absolutely loved mixing the worlds in this one. A huge thanks to remaintobreathe for the inspiration. Also, as a side note, I've renamed my fic journal to elysianfields (just as an fyi). Hope you enjoy! :-)
