Antidote [18+]

Catorce.

Xander slowly ran his hands through the curls in the sleeping boy's hair. Dios, he was beautiful. He rolled over as he heard his phone buzz on the nightstand.

It was Marco.

"Buenas," he answered easing himself from Seth's grip and making his way to the bathroom.

"Pariente, we've disposed of them, no traces."

"Aye pariente, luego," he hung up.

Xander peeked outside to check if Seth had woken up, he was still sound asleep.

Those fuckers from last night thought they would get to hold him ransom and get away with it, they were dead wrong. Xander didn't want Seth to be involved in anything dangerous but that was inevitable in this business, he just had to do his best to keep him safe.

There was no exporting or importing drugs, he was simply dealing with his father's leftovers, he wasn't necessarily a narco he liked to tell himself.

It was 5 a.m. and Alex knew he had to get to the hospital for his rounds, he took out some clothes and left them on the couch for Seth along with a note and some money. 

After getting ready he made his way downstairs and get the coffee machine going for his daily dose. 

"Aye," Alejandro called behind him. 

"Morning." 

"Marco filled you in?" 

"Sí, those pendejos had it coming," Alex said taking down two mugs form the cupboard, "Can you make sure Seth gets to school okay for me?"

Alejandro  nodded, "Does he know? " 

Alexander shook his head, "Not the time, it's too soon, he's just figuring out his sexuality I don't need to add anymore to his plate right now." 

"So you picked up a straight boy in hopes of turning him?" he laughed. 

"I'd like to think of it as accentuating what was already there lying dormant," Alex said grinning as he took a sip from his mug. 

"Uh huh, pass me the milk, I don't know how you drink this shit black," Alejandro grimaced, "If you do plan to tell him, you know that he'll be a liability and we'll need more security." 

"I know, I'll try to keep him hidden as best as I can in the meantime," he exhaled, "I'm going to the hospital, take care of him for me today." 

"Mhm," Alejandro hummed, "Te amo pariente."

"Te amo, see you later," Alex said giving his brother a hug.
