Third Person POV

     Alex had just gotten home when he first heard about the fires that were quickly spreading across their states forest's. He arrived home from work, turned on the news as he always did, and started winding down from his work day. However, the news his heart playing while making a cup of tea was different from any of the regular, boring news. Far different.
     Although he wasn't much of a tea person, and he much preferred coffee, it was far to late to drink any coffee and plus..John had left a lot of tea at Alex's place when he left. So, Alex has to use it at some point.
   While he was brewing the hot tea though, he heard the television in the back break down what was happening.
"Large fire spreads quickly in east area, evacuation suggested"
The first thing that had come to Alex's mind was John. He lived in the east area now...and although they broke up several months ago, panic still rushed through his body. He hurried over to his TV and turned up the volume, listening intently to the man talking on the screen.

~Timeskip two hours~

Alex was still listening to the news while he answered some work emails, working on his seconds cup of tea that night when he heard a knock at his front door. He set his laptop aside and went to the door, opening it cautiously before seeing who it was "John..? What are you doing here? Are you okay-" Alexander was quickly greeted with a tight hug, now noticing johns shaky breath and the orange tint to the sky. John hid his face in Alex's neck and leg out a small sigh "I..I needed to come see you...I know we're suppose to be like..broken up and not care about each other anymore but I just-"
Alex quickly cut John off by pulling him into his house, closing and locking the door before scooping John into his arms "just because we're not together doesn't means I can't still care about you.."
     John let out a sniffle and wrapped his arms around his ex-lover tightly "..you have no idea how much I've missed you.."
Alex set him down and his couch and held his face, looking over him intently for any scratches or any sign that he was hurt as John rambled on about who knows what. How much he missed him, the fires, his area- "Why did you come here?" Alex interrupted him as he let go of his face. John looked up at him, his rant coming to and end "...I need someone to stay and..you're the only person I thought of..you don't mind if I stay so you? I promise I'll help around the house and pay my share for however long I'm here-" Alex covered his mouth gently "you talk to much when your stressed. Do you want some tea?"

~Time Skip Two Nights~

Alex was letting John stay in his guest room as the fire continued to spread, luckily in the opposite direction of Alexander's home. He was told to stay home and do as much work as he could from his computer, which he successfully did. John only left once so far, to drive over to his house and get more clothes and a few other things, like chips and other snacks he wanted to bring over to Alex's.
The third night John was staying there he had told Alex he was going to bed and Alex soon followed, the two going their to their separate rooms. John wasn't planning on staying there though. He changed from his clothes and waited nearly an hour before draping his blanket over his body and walking down the hall into Alex a bedroom "Alex...I can't sleep.."

-So I originally had a whole smut scene in here but I decided if y'all really want that then I'll update it separately. But I wanted to get something out sooner rather than later. Happy Halloween too (I'll put something out for that soon as well!!)-
