Why Can’t I Just Hate You?! (Closed with Eli-the-transboi) (1/1) (MxM) (TW)

“Because I don’t want to.” Lixian snaps.

Reo tenses slightly, “Why?”

“I already answered that! God are you deaf?!”

Reo’s arms tighten slightly and he pulls away, “No, you just said you don’t want to. . . Why don’t you want to eat?”

Lixian rolls his eyes and starts walking away.

Reo grabs his wrist, holding onto him, "Please. . . Lixian, eat. . ."

Lixian narrows his eyes. “No.”

Reo huffs, "YES! EAT GODDAMNIT!"

Lixian flinches ever so slightly, staring down Reo.

(Reo: did he just flinch?!)

Reo seems to shrink under his gaze, pulling away, "I-I'm s-sorry. . ."

Lixian huffs, then starts walking to his car.

He gets up, following him, "L-Lixian. . ."

Lixian grumbles, “Leave me alone. You go eat your own food.” He gets into his car, locking the doors.

Reo bites his lip, standing there, looking uncomfortable.

Lixian drives off, grumbling under his breath.

Reo sighs, going back inside and sitting on the couch, silent.

After a long while, Lixian comes back. Once again drunk. He stumbles to his room, grumbling.

Reo was watching TV, not so quietly this time, just trying to distract himself.

(So– its loud–)

Lixian huffs, not even bothering. He flops onto his bed, silent.

Reo takes a moment, but turns the TV down, pausing it and follows LIxian, “Lix. . .”

Lixian grumbles. “Whaaattttt?”

He sighs, walking into his room, “You really need to stop doing this. . .” He mumbles.

“Whateveerrrrrrrrrrr…”

Reo sits next to him, “LIxian. . .”

Lixian looks at him, “Whaattttttt?”

Reo sighs, “If you keep doing this. . . You’re going to get hurt. . .”

He huffs, “I don’t give a shiittt…”

“I give a shit!” Reo looks at him, pulling him close, “I care. . .” He mumbles.

Lixian huffs.
