Today was Jekyll's first day back home.
Hyde walked in beside him, Giggling to himself.
" What have you done?" Jekyll asked looking down at the smaller man who was still giggling
" Oh," hyde said then he cleared his throat in an effort to stop " Nothing."
" You've done something, what is it?"
" Hmmmmm, sit down."
Jekyll sat down cautiously on the couch. He was tense not willing to relaxed as Hyde went into the kitchen and came back with a candle and a cigarette lighter.
" I don't know if I trust you with fire." Jekyll said
" You do you just don't know it yet." Hyde said quietly as he lit the candle and walked past Jekyll giving him a little peck as he went along. 
" What are you doing?" Jekyll asked
" Just Wait." Hyde said then he went into the kitchen and came back with a bottle of wine and two glasses.
Hyde poured the wine.
" I love you." Hyde said as he held Jekyll's hand and picked up his glass and drank.
" I love you too. What were you giggling about?"
" How I was going to get you drunk by the end of the night."
" Really? You think I get drunk that easy?"
" Well no, but I still want to get you a little tipsy."
" Hyde, I'm sorry." Jekyll said as he grabbed Hyde's waist and lifted him into his lap.
" I can't forget it. I'm so very sorry and honestly I feel as if I have depression." Jekyll continued
" Now Henry, depression is a long jump from just a small innocent kiss." Hyde said as a small worried laugh came out of him
" No Hyde it's not just that, I feel like I'm a failure and the world would be better off without me."
Hyde looked into the taller man's eyes with a look of sympathy. " Now Henry, you know that's not true."
Jekyll then started crying on the smaller man's shoulder. Hyde rubbed his back " Love, you know that's not true, right?"
" I don't know anymore." Jekyll answered
" After Delilah left us, and how many times you've left, and red how she left, I just can't shake this feeling that I've screwed everything up." Jekyll continued
" Baby you know that Delilah wasn't your fault. She loved you and you tried to protect her from me..."
" I could've saved her Hyde. I could've and I didn't. I just wish I could have her back."
" Don't be so hard on yourself, sweetheart. Please... I hate seeing you cry."
" Why do you stay with me? I'm a piece of junk and you know it. I can't ever do anything right. Why don't you just leave? You've tried but you always come back, why?"
" Because you Henry, are mine. I've never had something or someone of my own before you. All I'd do is go around finding something new every night. But you, You are mine and forever mine."
" And Red, oh sweet Red. She hates me now and I know it! She tries to leave so fast, I'm not worthy of anyone am I hyde?"
" You're worthy of everyone Henry. I'm so sorry that from the beginning you were always made up as a failure to the world. Let me tell you something right now. You are the smartest, most handsome,sweetest, respectable, kind, fun, dreamy, imaginative, person I have ever laid eyes on. Heck you made me! No one else can made a full blow human without having to raise it or manufacture it with gears and oil. And on that note, just for my craziness you gave birth and went through the pain and trials of pregnancy. You've taken in people that were thrown on the streets and given them a home and a job to get a home of they're own one day. You've given love to the unloved if anything that's your one flaw you have too big of a heart. And I would never have you any other way."  Hyde replied
" I love you, Eddie!" Exclaimed the bigger man
Hyde put his hand under Jekyll's chin " Let's just go to bed, how does that sound?"
" Wonderful."
