"i have to go," john says in a hushed whisper and quickly leaves the room.

alexander stares at the door and ends up falling back into his seat.

ten minutes pass, which turn into fifteen. and then the tears start to fall.

he doesn't move from his spot for twenty minutes, before the janitor forces him out of the building.

he walks home alone, eyes stinging. the dark clouds and cold winds threaten rain.

when he finally gets to his apartment, he doesn't have any more tears to shed. he tries to sneak into his small room, but he's caught.

"alexander?" burr faintly asks from the kitchen.

alex shoots burr a look.

"oh." burr lets him off the hook when he sees the faint shine of dried tears.

when he finally gets to his room, he throws himself onto his bed.

his last thought before he falls asleep is john.
