"Did you eat dinner?" The last tiht Mateo didn’t cory" Josiah turned and pressed a kiss to Tristan’s neck "I love you"
"I love you, too" The words had never come more easily than they did in this moment He wasn’t sure why, but they were almost like a compulsion he suddenly couldn’t hold back "I love you," he said again
"I know" Josiah sainst the oversized atching different lights flash He stayed when he heard the shower turn on Stayed when it went off Stayed when Josiah didn’t come back out to him
The only time he moved hen he bent to sit on the floor Even when he heard the front door open, he stayed Looked outside the same way Josiah had as he said, "We need him I don’t knoho I am without him anymore" Had he ever? "I don’t knoho I am without you both I can’t lose that"

And they needed Tristan to be strong In the past, Tristan kept quiet Sex he could do well, as long as it was hi But when it came to emotions, he let them lead the way
He couldn’t do that this tiover the side of the bed

"Thefor me has always been to be what you need, Jay Did I fuck that up someho did we lose you? It’s always been you You’ve always been the strong one Did we kill that part’a you?"
Mateo’s fear left his lips and traveled into Tristan What if they stifled his light?
"Show us," Tristan said against Josiah’s bare chest "Months ago, I asked you both to show ive myself to you Now I need you to show us, both of us, how to be what you need"
