Alex blinked. "Oh. Uhm…a little bit?" He replied, peeking up at Gabe. "I-I didn't eat much, though…please don't be angry."
Do you really want to trust insanity? (Private with Icefire, it's pretty fooking mature, matey)

"Angry?" Gabe asked softly, "I'm happy! A little food is better than none, Alex. I'm so happy you remembered to eat." He grinned, kissing Alex's cheek again.
Alex relaxed a little bit, closing his eyes and leaning his head on Gabe's shoulder.

Gabe smiled softly. He started to rub Alex's back, holding him gently.
"I'm proud of you," he said with a small smile. "You've made a lot of progress."
Alex sighed faintly, and nodded a little bit as he held onto Gabe.

"Do you want dinner now or later?"
Alex shrugged a little. "I'm not hungry, but…if you are, then you can eat."

"Mm, okay then." Gabe kissed Alex's cheek, nuzzling his head a little. He made his way to the kitchen, humming a little as he started to cook.

Gabe ate quietly, holding Alex close. Everything was so much better. No more ghosts, no more hidden feelings. He looked down at Alex, thinking a moment.
"How about the next time I have a day off, we go to the park again?"
Alex looked up. "Oh. Yes please." he replied happily, holding onto Gabe with a soft, faint smile on his face.

Gabe grinned.
"Perfect. Hopefully, there won't be anyone else around. I want to still be able to kiss you."
Alex smiled a little, nuzzling Gabe's cheek and staying snuggled close. "Me too." he replied softly.

"You're the one who's been willing to get better." Gabe smiled at Alex gently. "I couldn't have done anything to help if you hadn't wanted it."
Alex shrugged, looking away shyly. "I…if you say so." He replied softly.
