Chapter 9

The three of them were lying on Awerkok's bed eating breakfast and drinking coffee while they waited for their mother to come back downstairs, Awerkok hadn't spoken since he woke up five minutes ago because he was too nervous, everytime he tried opening his mouth a lump was formed in his throat and he couldn't breathe properly, after he woke up from his episode he felt nauseous, which caused him to vomit several times while in Alex's arms. The vomiting had ended just a few seconds later, his stomach had finally settled down but he still was feeling nauseous.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Said Nilesy in between bites of his bacon,

"What? No!" Replied Awerkok shivering as he thought about what happened earlier.

"How about we continue eating and relax for a few more hours" Suggested Nik,

"I think Kai needs some alone time," Said Alexander looking worried, "we can continue eating after a little while"

Alex sighed deeply as if he was disappointed by Awerkok's reply, he looked over at his boyfriend, Nilesy, who also noticed the sudden change in Alexander's facial expressions.

"Alex?"

"Yeah?" Replied Alex as he focused back on Nilesy

"I'm not sure if this is the best choice of course, but do you mind staying here today so that we could try and figure something else out?"

Alex nodded in agreement, "yeah, that's fine, just call me if you need me okay?" He gave Nilesy and Alex one last nod before leaving the apartment, as soon as the front door slammed shut Alex let his head fall back against the wall and covered his face in frustration.

Nilesy smiled lightly at his boyfriend and grabbed Alex's arm pulling him closer, "you can leave whenever you want, it won't bother me" He said sweetly rubbing Alex's hand with his thumb

"But-"

"Nilesy, listen to me, I don't care if you decide to leave, but I will stay and keep you company."

Nilesy sighed heavily, "alright, I promise if you do decide to leave that I will leave the apartment myself and lock the door behind me, alright?" He said,

"okay thank you." Said Alex leaning forward to kiss his boyfriend,

"Come on lets finish eating and watch some movie, I'm tired anyways" Said Nilesy getting off the bed,

"I love you" Said Alex getting up from the bed and walking to where his boyfriend was waiting.

"Love you too." Said Nilesy smiling, he walked past Alex and made his way towards the kitchen, Alex followed close behind him,

"Where did you find him?" Asked Alex looking up when he heard the familiar voice coming from the entrance hall,

"Outside, he was passed out on the doorstep." Replied Sebastian, Alex nodded absentmindedly before turning his attention back to the television screen, Nilesy was currently watching a comedy, apparently there had been a big misunderstanding between the two actors involved in the show and Alex had insisted that they needed to watch this movie as an example,

"Did he say what triggered this?" Asked Alex looking back at Nilesy,

Nilesy nodded, "yes, it was just this morning before you guys came home."

"Just this morning?" Repeated Alex looking at his boyfriend confused,

Nilesy nodded, "I went outside to buy some groceries and I found him curled up on the steps, I brought him inside and put him up on the sofa, he was pretty much dead to the world when I left him." Explained Nilesy sitting down beside Alex on the couch,

"And I guess he passed out again?"

"Yep, he must've been really exhausted."

"That explains why I kept feeling ill all night long," said Alex,

"Well
