Ly didn't know what to do. Alex was always silent. It was like...he wasn't living, he was just..there. They worried over him day and Night, checking in over and over while updating his husbands on his health. The final straw came when Ly got home to see him, laying on the couch as if he had never moved, his eyes staring not at the T.V but at the wall behind it. A small tear rolling down his cheek. Ly felt like crying, this was their friend! So Ly did the only thing they could think of. They walked over and insisted Alex get up. "Get up. Alex Get the hell up. Listen we need to talk" Reluctantly Alex sat up wiping at his red cheeks. "alex...it's been over a month. you need to talk to them" Ly inisted. Alex shook his head "I can't I really can't Ly. I just left them...just like that" Ly reached out and hugged Alex "Trust me...they aren't angry at you" 

Still, Alex didn't reach out to them. Karl and Nick were going crazy, worrying over him day and Night hoping one day he would just show up like he had that day in the rain. "Karl..." Nick suddenly said as they lay in the darkened room, they couldn't bring themselves to call it "Theirs" because it wasn't...not without Alex. "We have to go see him...Please" Karl was already getting up "Hurry.." he breathed. He knew if he thought too long he would back out, so they got ready and texted Ly for their address, which they reluctantly gave. They sped there, ignoring the storm as they parked in the driveway with reckless abandon. Nick was the first one out of the car, Karl not far behind as they approached the door and Knocked wildly. Slowly it opened...and there stood Alex. His eyes wide as he blinked up at them. "I don't-" He started before nearly falling As Karl and Nick tackled him with hugs. "Please come back" begged Nick "We need you Alex" karl sobbed. Alex's arms wrapped around them, gripping the damp cloth of their hoodies as he buried his face in their chests. He allowed himself to cry, to really cry. Letting it all out. Ly approached the door, staying a respectable distance away from the throuple while holding a small bag of Alex's things. "will you please come home?" Asked Nick once they had all calmed down. "..I don't know-" Alex's response was cut off by Karl grabbing one of his hands and one of Nick's. "I love you Alex...don't forgive Nick for him...but for yourself...for us" Karl pressed Alex's hand to his lips and Alex closed his eyes "For everything we've made together. For this" Alex opened his eyes as Karl and Nick smiled at him, eyes watering. "i just want to go home" Alex breathed, the word home was said with relief as if some strange weight had been lifted off of his shoulders. He looked back to Ly and smiled at them before throwing his arms around them. They laughed and gave him a friendly squeeze before handing him his stuff. "Thank you Ly" Karl said gratefully as he grabbed Alex's hand. "Happy to help..." Ly's phone rang so they waved goodbye before walking inside and closing their door. 

"I don't know if..you still want this" Nick said softly reaching into his hoodie pocket to pull out the golden ring. Alex's heart swelled as he stared at it. Something had been engraved into the top: "Mi amor". Alex broke down with a smile as he held out his hand and Nick placed the ring back onto his thin finger. "hey..." Alex whispered. Nick and Karl glanced at him, though Karl was trying to keep his eyes on the road at the same time, "We're married" alex let out a giggle and the two males smiled at him reaching for his hands. Alex reached both of his hands out and grabbed theirs, interlacing their fingers with his, allowing that wonderful sense of security pass through him, He knew right here, with them is where he was meant to be....right?
