Saint was crying and Zee wanted to punch someone. Old rumours had reared their ugly head on twitter and Saint was taking it hard. Zee had spent the day drying Saint's tears and trying to convince him that the majority of people loved him, it was just a few horrible people with too much time on their hands who were spreading hate.

"But Zee, what if my fans start to believe the rumours? What if I ruin our show before it's even aired?" He cried. The urge to protect his boyfriend was always strong but right now Zee wanted to hunt down the bastards who were spreading lies about Saint and kick 10 kinds of shit out of them. "Saint, I love you," he kissed his cheek "Your fans love you," ke kissed his other cheek "and we always will." He said before gently kissing his lips.

Zee decided not to answer the haters on any social media, mainly because he couldn't trust himself to be civil. Instead he arranged for him and Saint to go out for a meal in the evening and let their fans know where they were going to be. He knew nothing would cheer Saint up more than seeing some of his fans and knowing they still loved him. And if any of the haters turned up, well Zee was ready to deal with them. "Come on Bunny, let's get a shower and get ready." He said trying to pull Saint up. "Can we have a bath instead? I need to cuddle you..." Saint asked sniffling. "Of course." Said Zee "You wait there and I'll run the bath ok?" Saint nodded and Zee headed to the bathroom.

Zee filled the tub and added some special oil to the water. Saint couldn't have bubbles as they brought him out in a terrible rash. Once it was ready he headed back into the bedroom to get Saint. "Come on love. The bath is ready..." Saint was still looking sad but had at least stopped crying. Zee could see Saint was reluctant to move so he scooped him up in his arms, twirling him around. Saint smiled at this "Zee, what would I do without you?" He asked seriously. Zee kissed him and said "Let's never find out. You and me forever, what do you say?" Saint hugged him tightly "Forever." He agreed.

Zee carried Saint to the bathroom then set him down on the floor. "Come on Bunny, clothes off..." he said beginning to undo Saint's buttons. "Ohh Koala, trying to get me naked at a time like this?" He joked. Zee just laughed and continued his work. "Any time is a good time for you to be naked in my opinion..." he retorted. Saint laughed and removed the last of his clothes before stepping into the bath. Zee quickly undressed and joined him in the water. He was sat behind Saint with his arms wrapped around his torso. Being close to Saint always had an effect on Zee, mostly it was sexual or joyful but this was a new feeling. It was like being in their own bubble where the troubles of the outside world couldn't get to them.

Saint relaxed and let his head rest on Zee's chest. "This is just what I needed, thanks Zee." He sighed contentedly. Zee was letting his hands gently wash Saint's body. There was nothing sexual in the touches they were just comforting and loving and Zee was getting as much from them as Saint was. Saint was usually the one who looked after everyone so it was nice for Zee to be able to do this for him.

After they were both clean, they headed to the bedroom to dress but ended up on the bed snuggling instead. After half an hour Zee reluctantly said "Come on Bunny, we can't keep our fans waiting..." They got dressed quickly and headed to the restaurant. Zee knew Saint was nervous about this whole thing but in his typical fashion the second he was in public Saint had his smile plastered in place. "I'm right here Bunny," Zee reassured him before they got out of the car, kissing his hand.
Saint did smile genuinely at that. "I known and I'm so glad I've got you." He said.

At the restaurant there were lots of their fans waiting outside and Zee could see Saint relaxing when he saw them. "Hi!" Saint said smiling widely "Thank you guys so much for coming!" They gave some fans high fives, accepted their gifts, signed and posed for some pictures. They chatted with their fans who were, as always, lovely. "Saint, we saw the stuff on twitter..." one fan said "And we want you to know that we don't believe any of it. We've all banded together and we've managed to get most of the accounts blocked."

Saint could feel the tears filling his eyes. "Thank you all so much. I always worry no one will love me any more, but you guys always surprise me with how amazing you are." Zee put his arms around Saint and hugged him tightly. "We all love Saint don't we?" He shouted to the fans. "Yes!" They replied "And we love you too Zee!" Zee was touched by that. He was so concerned with his boyfriend he hadn't even thought about himself. "Yeah Zee," said Saint "We all love you too..." and gave him a kiss on the cheek. The fans began screaming at their public display and both Saint and Zee grinned.

"Thank you guys so much for coming to see us! It means a lot to know we have your support." Zee said. "Keep an eye out because our trailer will be dropping soon!" Saint smiled then added "Yeah and don't forget to tag us on twitter and insta with #TutorFighter." Zee laughed "He means #FighterTutor..." he said. " I said what I said..." Saint replied dead pan. Zee began to tickle Saint while Saint tried to pick Zee up, both of them almost forgetting they were in public. "Let's see what it is when we get home..." Saint whispered in Zee's ear causing Zee to blush like a tomato.

They stopped their play fighting and said good bye to their fans before heading in for their meal. Zee was so happy to see Saint back to his normal self again. "See Bunny, I told you you are so loved by everyone. But no one loves you as much as I do." He said bumping their shoulders together. "Now eat quickly because you have something to show me when we get home..."
