Alex. Bar. Booth. Book. Tea. Add some verbs an' stuff and you might get a full sentence, whee!

The mun blames the sugar-high for the incoherent.

"Well...I suppose it's your right to try it."

He looks very apprehensive.

[identity profile] go-between.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
He wasn't.

"Well....what did you see?"

[identity profile] go-between.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
"Jesus, Alex, I'm sorry."

He looks closely at him.

"Are you going to be all right?"

[identity profile] go-between.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
He shakes his head.

"That's not mine to say."

He reaches out a hand, but pulls it back. He doesn't know Alex well enough for that yet.

"Can I get you anything?"

The door opens a moment later and David steps inside.

"Oh!"

[identity profile] go-between.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 07:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Richard waves him over.

"David, you know Alex, right?"

[identity profile] notsoyoung.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
David raises an eyebrow at Alex, and looks to Richard.

"Er, yes, but he normally sounds saner than this."

He walks to Alex and touches his shoulder.

"Alex, pardon my language, but what the hell?"

[identity profile] go-between.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
"I asked too many questions again."

[identity profile] notsoyoung.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"It makes me all worried and nauseous outside, Alex, what were you doing opening the door?"

His brows are knitted together, and he's faintly scowling.

"Don't tell me you tried to leave? Is everything alright?"

[identity profile] go-between.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
"No, he didn't try to leave. He just went to look."

David, I'm sorry, this is my fault. I asked too many questions, and he told me he died and went to Hell. He was all happy before that. He and Nick just bloodbonded.

[identity profile] notsoyoung.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
He sighs, and shakes his head at Richard.

No, it's fine... he's just very... delicate.

He touches Alex's shoulder.

"You bloodbonded?" he asks with a smile, hoping to turn the conversation back to pleasanter thoughts.

[identity profile] go-between.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Richard throws David a desperate look.

"But they can't get here, Alex. You don't have to worry about them anymore."

[identity profile] notsoyoung.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
He nods, and wraps Alex in his arms. "They can't come through. And I wouldn't let them take you. Nick would never forgive me, and I'd never forgive myself."

[identity profile] notsoyoung.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
He picks Alex up, gently, and pulls him into a booth, gesturing Richard over to sit on the other side of him.

"He's here. He's just not here here Alex. You know he is; listen and you can feel him."

A second later, there's a small girl sitting in Alex's lap, too, looking up at him with sad brown eyes.

[identity profile] go-between.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Richard moves around to sit next to them and leans against David for comfort.

I'm sorry.

"You can even talk to Nick, if you want, Alex, even when he's asleep."

[identity profile] eternal-boy.livejournal.com 2005-03-16 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
No, Nick doesn't like him very much because he loves Alex...and Roger hurt Alex in many many ways...some of which he might not have even realized.

And it's not often that Nick uses his true speed, but this is one of the times when he does, not there and suddenly there, in front of Alex, looking into his eyes. He notices the little girl and gives her a quick nod of thanks before looking back to Alex.

"Alex."

He reaches up and strokes the side of his face, hands cupping his jaw.

"Alex."

A soft kiss, slow, loving, gentle...deep after a moment.

"Alex."

Nuzzling with his nose against Alex's cheek, against his jaw, then the crook of his neck.

Alex.

And one hand rips a wound in his wrist, which he raises to Alex's mouth just as he bites in.
