"Leo."
"Stop looking at me and saying my name like that. I'm still going."
Elijah frowns. "But you don't want to."
"But I need to Eli. You know that.."
"I know but I'll miss you."
The two boys share a quick soft kiss.
"I'll miss you too Eli.."
The older male pulls the younger into a tight embrace, never wanting to let go.

Leo Milone was being sent to some place Philadelphia, leaving the love of his life behind. He struggles with anorexia (bulimia nervousa) so his mom sent him away because she didn't want to deal with it.
Elijah Madison didn't have it easy. He was kicked out of his house when he was 14 and had been on the streets until he met Leo. While Elijah was on the streets he had gotten into drugs and hasn't been able to kick his addiction.
Leo and Elijah made a deal, Leo would go away for however long to get better as long as Elijah detoxed and kicked his addiction in the ass.

"I swear Eli if you don't kick it's ass, when I get back I'll be kicking yours."
"I promise I will."
