Evan glanced up from the stack of paperwork, his pen hovering over the forms. His blue eyes softened as he listened to Roxy, nodding at her every word. He carefully wrote everything down, muttering it back as he went.

"Alright, so... Roxy Lily Stars, but you want the last name to match mine." He gave her a small, almost shy smile. "You sure about that? No pressure, you know."

He didn’t wait for an answer right away and kept writing. "Birthday: January 1st, 2009. Place of birth: Airway Heights, Washington. Got it. Address will be updated to mine—well, ours now."

When he got to the medical section, his grip on the pen tightened slightly. He hated seeing it all spelled out, knowing how much Roxy had been through, but he nodded solemnly. "Anxiety, OCD, self-harm, vasovagal syncope... light and noise sensitivity..." His voice trailed off before he added, almost reluctantly, "And sexual assault."

His gaze flicked up to Roxy for a moment, his expression filled with both concern and admiration. "You’re tough as hell, you know that?" he said softly, his voice carrying a warmth that only someone who truly cared could manage.

When she mentioned emergency contacts, he chuckled lightly, trying to lighten the mood. "So, me first, Cam second. Figures. No one else? Not even like a doctor or something?" He raised an eyebrow, teasing slightly but not pushing too hard.

As Roxy mentioned the consent form, Evan leaned back slightly, looking at her thoughtfully. "Alright, so for the last name—are we going with just mine, or are we hyphenating? And for the middle name, it’s up to you. Some people keep it, some change it. Whatever makes you feel like... you?, I guess."

He set the pen down for a moment, leaning his elbows on the table and looking at her with a small smile. "This is your call, kid. I’m here to make sure it feels right for you." "Hyphenating means combining two last names together" Evan added.
Evan’s breath hitched as he watched her sign her name, the unique flourish on the "x" and "a" catching his eye. As the "x" was a bow and the "a" was a star. His heart swelled with a mix of pride and emotion. It wasn’t just a name—it was a symbol of her trust, her choice to start over with him.

He reached out, brushing a strand of her hair back with a tenderness that felt second nature. "That’s perfect, Roxy," he said softly, his voice steady but full of feeling. "No middle name, just Roxy Evan. It suits you."

Cam grinned from the doorway, his arms crossed as he leaned casually against the frame. "I’m not gonna lie, that’s a badass signature. You sure you’re not secretly a rock star?"

Evan laughed, shaking his head. "She’s MY kid, of course she’s got style." He slid the papers back toward himself, his hands shaking slightly as he reviewed them. "Alright, that’s it. We’re done."

He looked up at Roxy, his blue eyes shining. "You ready for this? You’re officially stuck with me now."

Evan froze for a moment, surprised by the sudden hug, but then his arms wrapped tightly around Roxy, pulling her close. He rested his chin on the top of her head, his hand gently running over her back as he held her.

“You don’t have to let go if you don’t want to,” he murmured, his voice soft and steady, though there was a slight tremble in it. “I’m not going anywhere, Roxy. Not ever.”

Cam watched quietly from the doorway, his usual smirk replaced with a rare look of genuine warmth. He didn’t say anything, letting the moment belong to the two of them.

Evan squeezed her just a little tighter, his voice dropping to a whisper. “You’re safe now, okay? You’re with me. Always.”
