"He left last time..." He choked softly, gazing down at him. He chewed on his snakebites, but got up and stumbled towards Zander. He crouched, throwing his arms around him tightly. "Don't leave me," He sobbed into his back. "'M sorry I dunno how to grow up....I'm sorry I talked to her.." He cried harder.

Zander pulled him into his lap, hugging him tightly. "I'm not gonna leave you, okay?" He breathed, kissing the side of his head gently. he hugged him tighter, rocking him slowly. "It's okay.. You don't need to grow up right now, right this minute.. It takes a long time.. Don't be sorry, okay?" He ran his fingers gently through his hair, leaning back against the wall.
"I'm sorry I walked out.. I shouldn't have.." He said quietly, rubbing his back gently. "I'm not gonna leave again, okay? Not until they make me.."

Devon hugged at him desperately, utterly terrified. When Mat had disappeared he hadn't come back for too long. "You gotta promise..." He rasped, breaths quick. He kissed his shoulder, then looked at him, searching his face. "I-...I'd never want no one else..." He whimpered.

Zander gently ran his fingers through his hair, rocking him slowly. "I promise, okay? I'm not gonna go anywhere.." He said quietly, kissing the top of his head. He wasn't quite sure that he understood what it meant to be loyal to one person and one person only. He bit his lip, just watching him. But he didn't say anything, simply watching Devon. He rocked him slowly, heard snoring and looked over to see Mat curled up in Devon's bed, clinging to himself as he slept. He looked back at Devon, gently stroking his cheek.

Devon only continued to cry until he was shaking softly. He hadn't eaten anything but chips today, was tired and hungry. He kept an arm wrapped around Zander's neck. "She just helpin', Zander... Promise.." He cried softly. "I juss got lonely... I-...." He bit his lip, thinking of what Dylan told Mat all the time, even now after so long. "I love you...." Love... was this what it was? Being afraid of losing someone? Wanting only them? Zander was the only one he was even willing to let touch him anymore.

Zander rubbed his back slowly, his hand falling to rest when he heard Devon's last words. He bit his lip, knowing he wanted to say it back, but not quite sure how to go about it. He wrapped his arms tightly around him. "Do you know what love means, Devon?" He asked gently, lacing his fingers together at his side to keep him close. He took in a shaky breath, was honestly touched that he would even consider saying it. "It's a really fragile word.. Like a vase. You can't just throw it around." He rubbed his side slowly, keeping an arm tight around him.

"Think so..." He whispered. "I'unno...." He began to cry again, confused and scared. "I only want this from.. You and... I jus'-..." He kissed him softly, buried his face as he sniffed. "'m sorry...."

"Shh.." Zander breathed, kissing him back gently. "I love you too, Devon.. More than anything.. Don't think I don't. I'd give you the world if you asked for it." He tipped his chin back, wrapping his arms tightly around him as he kissed him slowly. He pressed his hands closer into the small of his back, keeping him close. "I love you.. So much.." He cupped his cheek, looking over at him. "I hate seeing you cry, Devon.. Everything's gonna be okay.."

"I don't want the world.." He mumbled. "Just you..." He met the kisses, gazing at him as he tilted his head against his hand, sniffled and let go with an arm to rub at his eyes before wrapping it back around him ago. "Why'd you go...?" He whispered. "We was just playin' cards..."

Zander rubbed his back slowly, chewing on his lip. "I guess I just don't like seeing anyone else with you.. People tend to think you're easy to take advantage of.." He ran his hand slowly up and down his back. He felt like a fool, trying to say that he was jealous. "I just don't want to lose you. I don't want someone confusing you, telling you that it's okay to be with two people at the same time. But if you want to leave, then I'm not going to stop you. That's your decision." He didn't want what happened with Dylan to happen again.
"I'm just trying to keep you safe.." He mumbled.
