Sturniolo Triplets One Shots

Reassurance and Acceptance (Nick)

Nick Sturniolo cherished every moment with his boyfriend, Alex, whose warm smile and gentle demeanor had captured Nick's heart. They had been dating for over a year now, and Nick admired Alex's resilience and authenticity. Living together with his brothers, Chris and Matt, in a cozy apartment created a close-knit and supportive atmosphere that extended to all aspects of their lives.
One lazy Sunday afternoon, Chris and Matt were hanging out in the living room while Nick and Alex relaxed nearby. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable, filled with the easy camaraderie that had developed between them.
Suddenly, Alex excused himself to use the bathroom. A few minutes later, he returned looking visibly flustered, avoiding eye contact with everyone in the room.
"Hey, Alex, everything alright?" Nick asked, noticing Alex's discomfort.
Alex sighed, nervously fidgeting. "Um, Nick... I think I need to go home."
Concerned, Nick stood up and walked over to Alex. "What's wrong, babe?"
Alex glanced at the floor, his cheeks reddening. "I... I got my period unexpectedly. I'm sorry, I just..."
Nick's brows furrowed slightly, his heart going out to Alex. He could sense Alex's discomfort and embarrassment.
Chris and Matt exchanged a quick glance, then Chris spoke up softly, "Alex, don't worry about it. It's totally normal. We've got some products stocked up for when our female friends come over. Would you like us to grab you some? We can keep them here for you, no problem."
Matt nodded in agreement, offering a reassuring smile. "Yeah, and if there's anything specific you use, just let us know. We want you to feel comfortable here."
Alex sighed with relief, but Nick could see the deeper unease in his eyes. Feeling emasculated by the situation, Alex muttered, "I'm sorry, it's just... embarrassing."
Nick knelt down beside Alex, gently taking his hand. "Hey, Alex, listen to me. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. This doesn't change how I see you, or how Chris and Matt see you. You're still the amazing person I love."
Chris nodded in agreement. "Absolutely, Alex. We're here for you, man. No judgment."
Matt chimed in, "Yeah, Alex, we've all been in embarrassing situations. It's part of life. You're not alone in this."
Alex looked at them gratefully, feeling a bit more reassured. "Thank you, guys. I appreciate it."
Nick wrapped an arm around Alex's shoulders, pulling him close. "You're part of our family, Alex. We support each other through everything."
Feeling a bit more at ease and accepted, Alex leaned into Nick's embrace, grateful for the supportive environment he had found with Nick and his brothers.
