vikk couldn't take it anymore, he had to talk to lachlan and find out what was going on and why he was pushing him away.

he quickly stood up and rubbed his face and walked to the bedroom where lachlan was.

vikk put his ear to the door and could hear - ever so faintly - crying coming from inside the room.

his eyes widened and put his hand on the doorknob to open the door but it was locked. vikk knocked on the door impatiently and could hear a small gasp.

'lachlan? are you okay baby? let me in please.'

but when nobody unlocked the door and the crying seemed to become more heard vikk's heart stopped for a second.

he knocked more feveroushly and tried opening the door again and again.

'baby?! are you okay, please let me in lachy.'

but again the door didn't unlock and vikk kept pushing on the door to try and open it.

the cries were coming more often and with silent spots that scared vikk to much.

when vikk finally opened the door lachlan wasn't in sight. until he could see the bathroom door opened room slightly ajar and heard little plops of water.

he rushed to the bathroom door and his heart dropped.

--

vikk paced back and forth in the waiting room as he waited on word of his boyfriend.

how did he not notice? the baggy clothes, the lack of appetite, the distance. it was right in front of him and took him this long to notice.

what if he was too late? what if lachlan had gone too far? what if lachlan didn't make it? what if he wouldn't want to be with vikk anymore? what if-

'vikk barn?' a voice said and vikk looked to see the doctor who was helping lachlan.

'y-yes?' vikk said stuttering.

'would you like to see lachlan, he is stable at the moment.' the doctor said and vikk nodded his head and followed the doctor to the room lachlan was at.

when they reached his room the doctor opened the door and said, 'lachlan? would you like to see visitors?'

vikk couldn't hear lachlan say anything and the doctor moved his hand motioning him to go in.

he took a big breath and walked in, the doctor shutting the door behind him.

when vikk looked at lachlan he could feel his heart breaking.

lachlan was laid on a patient bed with a gown on. but he had iv's hooked into his arm that was very skinny and pale. his face was pale white and his cheeks were sunken in some.

lachlan didn't look up and kept his head down away from vikk to see anymore.

'l-lachlan?'

when lachlan put the rest of his head and looked vikk straight in the face he could see that his lips were chapped and his blue eyes were a very light grey.

the two just looked at each other for a moment, not saying a word.

then vikk walked over further and put his arms around lachlan's very small body in a hug. lachlan hesitantly put his arms also around vikk and they just stayed quiet.

no word was said, because there didn't need to be any said.

--

things slowly but surely got better.

lachlan had been diagnosed with bulimia and minor anorexia and was sent to a treatment center to be helped.

lachlan had refused - more like demanded - to not go, but vikk convinced him finally with encouraging and loving words, as well as a few pouts and kisses on the lips and cheek.

when lachlan was finally considered 'stable' to go back home he was more than happy to be going home.

vikk was told to keep a careful eye on lachlan and make sure he was getting more than 2,000 carbs a day to make sure he would get better.

he was also told to make sure lachlan wasn't throwing up his food after eating, which was easy enough.

when lachlan came through the house door he was immediately brought into a hug which he returned almost instantly.

when he pulled away he could see a little banner saying 'welcome back lachlan!' there was also balloons hung around and he felt like crying with tears of happiness.

'i love you lachy.' vikk said into lachlan's ear with a smile and kissed his boyfriend's cheek.

'i love you too vikk.' lachlan said and the two went and ate the pizza and salad that vikk had made, a weird combination of food but both ate.

when lachlan finished he excused himself to the bathroom but not before being kissed on the cheek with saucy lips.

'really?' lachlan said looking at vikk but the boy just smiled innocently and wiped the sauce off the cheek.

lachlan walked into the bathroom and did his business and washed his hands but looked into the mirror at himself.

his body and face were going back to their original self but lachlan couldn't help but hold his stomach feeling the fat.

why did vikk love him anyway? he wasn't handsome, he was just ugly and that disgusted him.

his hair and eyes were ugly and too stereotypical, his tallness he hated because he was too tall, he tried smiling but grimaced at the weird shape it formed into.

before he could think anymore negative thoughts, he felt to arms wrap around his waist and felt his hands being covered by another.

lachlan gasped but calmed down when he seen vikk in the mirror behind him.

'baby, you're beautiful don't think otherwise.' vikk said softly and trailed a finger down one of lachlan's.

'i love everything about you. don't think i don't. and don't think badly about yourself, you're perfect to me and if people think differently then they need to get there eyes checker or something.' the last line made lachlan giggle and vikk smiled at the sound of him.

'i love too vikk,' lachlan said turning around and hugging vikk tightly in his arms.

'i love you too lachy, to infinity and beyond.' vikk said back.

'and all your little things.'
