William watched from a few steps down the hall as Jim left your room, and went back to his office. Then he pulled Alex into your room, just as you were climbing into bed.

"Tell me. Every. Detail." William orders, sitting cross legged on the floor.

"William, I want to sleeeepppppp...." you complain, still blushing and half smiling.

"No no no no no!!! Every detail!!! Go!!!" William ordered again, you couldn't help but laugh.

"You know, for someone that you insists on not being the gay best friend, sometimes you sure act like one." You tease, deciding you might as well stay up a bit longer to talk to him, since he didn't seem to be leaving any time soon. Alex just stayed quiet, honestly probably half asleep against Williams shoulder.

"Y/nnnnnn!!!!" William complains, just wanting to hear how it all played out. You sighed, then smiled.

"I have.... honestly absolutely no idea what happened. He just came storming in here, and kissed me... ... don't know about you, but I'm starting to like being blamed for this whole 'running away' thing." You smile dreamily, still fawning over jim. William thought a moment, before smiling.

"Dunno, jim hasnt kissed me yet, but I'm hating this whole 'you running away' thing a lot." William chuckles, and you laugh.

"Hands off my man!! I 'belong to him', his words not mine!" You grin. It was nice to see William joke around... he just seemed relieved that his brother was okay. And. From his reaction to the whole thing, it seems like he lowkey shipped you and jim. ... or high key, depending on how good he was at hiding it. Maybe he actually had a phone full of fan fiction on you two. Hahhhh. .... you'd get Alex to sneak his phone from him one day so you can break in and just. Make sure that's. Not the case. Hah.

"Anyways William, you need to take Alex home. Poor thing is exhausted." You smile down at the small boy, who was most definitely asleep at this point. William looks at his brother, a smile appearing on his face again.

"...... yeah. .... i probably should." He says, picking Alex up in his arms, before standing up.

"Y/n, you rest up too. To be honest, I did not expect this from Jim at all. this is completely uncharted territory for me, and probably everyone else here as well. maybe even jim, as well. .... just. Be careful, okay? If jim is acting like this, it means he's vulnerable. .... which means he's extra dangerous, and completely unpredictable. Just... keep an eye on him. And.... maybe keep whatever this is between you and him on the lowkey for now, alright? Just until everything gets... figured out." William advises, heading towards the door. You smile at him, and nod.

"Alright, i suppose you know jim better than I do, so I guess that's a good idea. ... take care of Alex, William. Let me know if I can help in any way. Oh!! And if he gets lonely at home, feel free to bring him here, we can visit!! I have.. a LOT of spare time." You grin, and William nods, looking down a bit.

"Alright.. thank you, y/n. I'll see you tomorrow." He says, before opening the door with one hand, carrying Alex through, and closing it behind him.

You smile, collapsing in bed, glad to finally be alone to dream of jim, and what tomorrow might bring.
