this is short lol sorry about that

no ones pov - the next day

robin went out to the kitchen and made himself some tea. he still regret what he had done the previous day and felt horrible for making his own son cry.

his mind filled with many thoughts before he saw Axel come out of his room.

Axel walked towards the counter and took a seat at the small bar stools they had.

"hows manny doing?" robin said worriedly 

"i- im not allowed to say" Axel said as small tears formed at the corner of his eyes.

"i wasnt asking. tell me what happened to him." robin said sternly 

"im sorry but i am not one to-" 

"TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY SON!" robin screamed throughout the house

Axel didnt say anything, and robin was fuming before they heard the small sound of the door opening then closing.

footsteps were heard down the hall in the dead silence and manny appeared from the hallway facing Axel and Robin.

he was wearing what was seen to be Axels hoodie and some shorts. he rubbed his eyes and looked up at the two. 

"Manny!" robin exclaimed as he ran towards the boy and hugged him

"I'm so sorry for what i did to you yesterday! I didn't mean to hit you like that!" robin said 

Manny's face was expressionless. He didn't reply for a moment and just stared at his father.

"but you were gonna hit him like that." manny said angrily

robin hadnt even thought of that and didnt think abut how offended that could be towards his son.

robin was speechless

"bet you haven't thought of that? huh?" manny said

he got out of the grasp of his father and walked towards Axel

"can we go back to the room please dear" manny pleaded to his lover while putting his arms around Axels neck

Axel was flustered by the interaction and it was shown all over his face

"okay then, love" Axel said trying to not freak out in front of Mannys father

robin glared at Axel thinking as if it was him who had taken his sweet innocent boy away.

robin wanted to interfere so badly because he thought that Axel was a horrible influence on Manny, he wasn't completely wrong, Manny had changed his ways in thinking as he had become more mature and aware of what things were. Robin was afraid of the fact that Axel would do things to his child. any parent would think the same seeing Axel and his ways.

robin watched them both walk back to the room until they were out of sight.
