We're All a Little Broken

Chapter 6

Nicks eyes fluttered open, and he reached out to his nightstand to check the time on his phone. Only it wasn't his nightstand, it wasn't even his bed.

Jeff mumbled something in his sleep and pulled Nick closer to him.

Oh yeah. He forgot that he slept in the same bed as Jeff last night. Jeff always got mega clingy when he's drunk. Not that they done anything though, Nick wasn't ready. Plus, he wouldn't do anything while Jeff was drunk and he was sober.

"Jeff. Jeff honey, you need to let me go."

"Hmm." Jeff mumbled, still asleep, and Nick had to resort to shaking his shoulders. "What?"

"You need to let me go so I can get up." Nick said, smiling at him and running his hands though Jeff's hair, causing Jeff to sigh.

"Nick, it's Sunday, sleep in." Jeff mumbled against the pillow, then lifted his head to look at his watch. "It's six in the morning."

"I know, but I want to go for a run."

"You go for a run everyday, it's not good for you." Jeff said, and Nick stiffened. It went silent, and Jeff opened his eyes, frowning at the look on Nick's face. "Nick?"

"It is good for me, Jeff." Nick said defensively. "It keeps me fit and healthy."

"Nick-"

"I like the cold and the adrenaline and the feelings of running." Nick said, voice rising. "So, let me go so I can run."

"Nick honey." Jeff said, sitting up and putting a hand on Nick's cheek. "Please, just stay in bed. It's Sunday, you can miss one day. Please."

Nick was silent, but then nodded, going back under the covers and cuddling with Jeff. Jeff smiled, wrapping his arms around Nick and letting his head rest on his chest, kissing the T-shirt where his heart was.

They began to fall asleep again, when there was a knock on their dorm door.

"We're coming in, be decent." They heard Thad say, and the door unlocked and opened. Years ago, they had gotten keys made of both dorms for each person, and it came in handy a lot, especially since Jeff and Xavier were prone to losing their keys.

Thad and Kurt walked in, still in their pyjamas, and quickly shut the door behind them.

"It's six in the morning, what are you two doing here?" Jeff asked, groaning at being woken again.

"Sebastian and Xavier are in bed together, naked, we don't want to be there for that."  Kurt said. "Can we crash here for a bit, until they wake up?"

"Sure, sleep on Sebastian's bed, or on the couch." David said, voice thick with sleep.

"You take the bed and I'll take the couch since you're taller. Unless you want to sleep together." Thad said, elbowing Kurt in the side, who rolled his eyes and pushed Thad towards the couch.

———

"Who's fucking alarm is going off?" Xavier said, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.

"It's mine." Sebastian replied, and hearing Sebastian's voice, Xavier shot up, eyes wide.

"Oh fuck, we had drunk sex."

Sebastian opened his eyes, looking at Xavier, then at himself under the covers "Ah shit."

"How many has this been now? Five, six?" Xavier asked with a smile.

"You keep count of how many times we have drunken sex?" Sebastian asked, pulling the covers higher over himself.

"You don't? Want to remember all of our romantic moments for the kids." Xavier said sarcastically, leaning down to place a kiss on Sebastian's lips.

"Oh fuck off. Now, get dressed and get out of here so I can get out of bed."

Xavier obliged, getting out of bed, completely naked, and pulling on all of his clothes. "I don't get why you don't just get dressed at the same time as me, we've seen each other's naked bodies countless of times."

"Yeah, and every time we were blackout drunk where you remember fuck all." Sebastian said. "Just hurry up so I can get dressed."

"This is very rude kicking me out." Xavier commented, no seriousness in his voice, picking up one of Sebastian's hoodies and putting it on. "Right, see you later."

Xavier left the room, and Sebastian got out of bed, grabbing his clothes and going into the bathroom.

He looked down at his bare arms, examining all of the past scars. There's a reason he didn't let him and Xavier change at the same time.
