TW: Vague suicide attempt mention. Like, pretty vague. But stay safe.

3rd Person POV

"Hold on, I need to get jutht one more thpot." Rich told Jake as he rubbed more suncreen onto his lover's back. Jake whined and tried to escape, but Rich held him back.

"There. All good." He announced, letting go of Jake. The taller man plucked the suncreen out of his hands and said,

"Alrighty Rich. Your turn."

"Nah bro, I'm good." Rich responded.

"You need to put sunscreen on. I don't want you getting sunburn." Jake scolded.

"I'll be fine. Don't worry thweetie."

*A few hours later*

"FuCk! Ow! Shit!" Rich yelled as Jake tried to rub aloe vera onto his shoulders.

"I'll be done in a minute! You're doing great honey!" He shouted over Rich.

Seeing Rich all burnt again brought Jake back to high school. Sure, it wasn't as bad as it had been, but awful memories still came flooding back.

The flames eating away at his childhood home, destroying everything.

Rich huddling in the bathroom, not trying to escape the fire. Instead, he embraced it.

Jake jumping out of the window, a burnt and damaged Rich in his arms, causing him to break his legs.

Almost losing Rich before he got the chance to tell him that he loved him.

"Jake? Are you okay?" Rich asked before turning around, wincing as he did so.

"I love you. I love you so, so much." Jake murmured.

"I love you too." The shorter man whispered back. Being as gentle and careful as he could be, Jake reach out and cupped Rich's scarlet face. They leaned in, their lips meeting. Anyone could tell these two were madly in love.

"OuCh!" Rich squealed as Jake touched his sunburnt shoulder.

"Sorry! Here. Let's put a little more aloe vera on that." He murmured as he spread some more onto his lover's flaming shoulders.
