Devon had backed up into a corner stubborny, glaring with his lips pulled back to reveal sharp teeth. He was in his room, but refused to let the nurse touch him again, even to unlock the cuffs.

Zander walked slowly into the room, eyeing Devon cautiously. "Devon?" He asked quietly, closing the door slowly behind him. "Devon, it's okay." He said, afraid to walk any closer to him than he already was.

"No," Devon mumbled when told it was okay. He raised his head, some of the threat fading from his eyes as he looked up at Zander. His lips relaxed. "Lemme go..." He begged from where he was crouched. "I want Zander to. Not you.."

Zander sighed, slowly walking over to him. He knelt down in front of him, reaching over to stroke his hair. But Devon still felt like a huge threat. He was defensive. "I can't undo your cuffs. But I can hold you while she does, okay?"

Devon turned his face to the crook of Zander's neck and just began to cry. The nurse took the chance to unlock him and step outside, and he wrapped his arms around Zander, hands fisting in his shirt. "I don't wanna stay here.."

Zander hugged him close, slowly rubbing his back. He was beyond glad to have Devon's arms around him again. "I know.. I don't want you here either. I want you home." He admitted, gently pulling the boy into his lap.

Devon just hugged him even tighter, choking on his soft sobs, not one to usually hold back emotion when he felt it between being so emotionless. Tears fell down his cheeks slowly and he reached to swipe them away.

Zander kissed the top of his head softly as he rubbed his back. He shifted his weight a bit, drawing a knee up on the side of Devon. "I'd steal you away if I could." He mumbled, reaching up to play with Devon's hair. "Just be strong and get okay. And then you get to see everybody again."

Devon sniffled, unsure if he would ever be okay. He just knew he had to get out, run away. He couldn't wait any longer, didn't want to sleep alone anymore, deal with handcuffs and people.

Zander kept the boy close, not wanting to let go. He was glad for every moment Devon could be in his arms now that he didn't get to have him next to him. They didn't see each other a lot, but him being in the hospital made it worse, especially with the hours Zander worked.
