*wilhelm's point of view*
present
"what is he doing here?" simon whisper-screamed.
"i don't know!"
"wilhelm, i'm so sorry- for everything. i know that isn't a good apology, it's horrible actually, but i need help right now. please," he begged.
i looked to simon for an answer. he shrugged.
what do i do? if i didn't let him in, i could miss something important. but if i did let him in, he would probably just end up hurting me again.
i sighed and walked over to the door.
when i opened the door, he was standing there shaking. tears were trailing down his face and he was covered in sweat. oh shit. this was serious.
"oh shit."
"can we talk please? i'm sorry to ask for this, you don't owe me anything, but i need something."
i nodded.
there was an awkward silence where we stared at each other.
"so can i... um... you know?" he asked.
i raised my finger telling him to wait a second and closed the door.
i looked to simon.
"he said he wants to come in," i said nervously.
he furrowed his brow.
"in here?"
"well where else?" i asked.
i hoped he could sense the urgency in my voice.
he sat up.
"um, yeah, that's fine. just make sure he knows i'm here," he advised, standing up to throw one of my hoodies on.
i walked back to the door. when i opened it he was running his hand through his hair.
he looked at me expectantly.
"yeah, that should be okay," i started, "but simon is here, just so you know."
his eyes went wide.
"oh, i'm sorry- i didn't interrupt anything, did i?" he asked, taking in my appearance.
"oh, no no no, we weren't doing anything important," i assured him.
"oh."
i opened the door all the way.
"did you still wanna...?"
"oh, yeah- thanks," he croaked.
when we walked back in the room, simon was in bed with my hillerska hoodie on, a blanket over his legs. august gave him an uncomfortable wave. he gave an attempted smile back. i climbed back onto the bed and sat down next to simon.
"you can sit down if it'll make you more comfortable," i told him.
he tensely lowered himself to the edge of the bed.
"did something happen?" i asked.
he nodded.
he opened his mouth to say something, but it didn't come out.
"i'm sorry," he said, "i just never thought i would be saying this out loud."
i could tell simon understood how serious this felt.
