"You don't understand, its simple really-" (OXO, very dark, CLOSED)

“From what? I’m not Carmen. I’m not a weak guy who can’t protect himself.” He tosses his hands to the side, “Killing is illegal. I work for the law, Trick. I can’t just let my boyfriend break the law.”

He blows out a pretty, pinching the bridge of his nose, “I don’t need you peering into my personal life.”

"Fine, Ill leave you alone" Trick turns around and heads to the door, with every intention of leaving.

Az blinks, “Trick-“

(He doesn’t know how to have a committed relationship :/)

(Well trick is trying to keep himself from killing az so that tyler doesnt end up yk)

Trick stops, a few feet from the door, not saying a word.

(Mhm-)

Az sighs, leaning back, “I’m sorry.” He mumbles.

"For" Trick turns around, his arms still crossed.

“Everything that just happened.” He mumbles.

"Good. You should be" he huffs.

Az scowls, but stays silent. He then turns away and grabs a snack.

Tyler blinks, looking around then looking at Az, "um… w-what happened?.. why did he want t-to stab you?"

“Because I argued the point whether I was his or not.” He sighs, eating his snack.

"O-oh" Tyler looked at Az for a minute, "you look different"

“Mhmmm. . .” He pulls his phone out.

"I like it … I-is this the normal you?" Tyler walks over, wanting to be held.

Az faces him, smiling slightly and hugging him, “Mhmm. . . Carmen was way out of my comfort zone for looks.”

Tyler leans against Az, silent for a moment, "h-he killed him…he k-killed M-Micheal…" he says sadly, tears filling his eyes.

Az tenses, “Fucking hell. . .” He mumbles, running his hand down his face. He blows out a breath.

Tyler takes a step back, "I….I-Im s-sorry Az" He hugged himself.

Az shakes his head, “It’s not your fault.” He hugs Tyler again, hiding his face in his shoulder.

Tyler shivers slightly in Az's arms. "I-I'm still s-sorry"

Az hums, kissing his cheek, “Shh. . .It’s okay. . .”

Tears fall from Tylers eyes as he presses his face against Az's shoulder.

Az rocks side to side, humming a soft tune, “It’s okay. . . I won’t let anything happen to you.”

"p-promise…. h-he did it again… i-im scared az" he sniffles.

Az sighs, kissing his forehead, “Nothing will happen to you.”

Tyler nods slowly, wiping his tears away.

Az kisses him gently.

Tyler kisses him back.

Az hums softly and pulls away, looking up at him.

Tyler looks back, smiling softly.
