"Wow. I could tell there was something off about him but I didn't expect that." Lachlan said softly. "I'm sorry you went through that." He told me sincerely.
"Yeah. Th-that's super mes-sed up." Nikolai agreed.
I shrugged. It felt nice to let all of that information out to people that believed me. They were the only ones on my side in all of this.
"Sweetie, you should go back to sleep. Nikolai and I will stay right here with you the whole time alright?" Lachlan asked me as he noticed my eyes beginning to droop. I nodded slowly before I made myself comfortable in Nikolai's lap.
I heard him chuckle a bit before I fell into that darkness that I had been fighting.

Lachlan's POV
Poor guy. The cute little thing has been through so much torment. I smiled softly as I watched him fall asleep. Rylan wasn't ever going to touch him again.
"We need to do something about this." I told Nikolai. I made sure my voice was quiet though, I didn't want to wake up the sleeping beauty that laid in his lap.
"Y-yeah. But wh-at can we do?" He asked me sadly.
"Let's find Rylan first, I can go out tomorrow to get groceries or something and corner him. We can go from there when that happens." I strategized. This probably wasn't a good idea but I'll be damned if I didn't do something.
"Ok, j-just be care-careful." Nikolai told me.
"Of course honey." I replied. I then went and kissed him softly. "Do you want to sit on the couch with him? It'll be more comfortable." I offered. He thought about it for a moment before nodding. I helped him up and sat him down on the couch. Slowly the three of us had all fallen asleep again.

Damien's POV
I woke up again and it was bright out. I was wrapped in warmth all around me and sighed in content. This felt really nice.
I shuffled my body around before realizing that whatever was under me was breathing. I opened my eyes to see Nikolai sleeping soundly under me and Lachlan to the side of us with his arm wrapped around my waist. I smiled softly at this and laid my head back down onto Nikolai's chest.
Lachlan woke up shortly after I had closed my eyes again and yawned before turning his head towards Nikolai and giving him a peck on the cheek. After that, he leaned down and did the same to me, causing a blush to come rushing up full force towards my cheeks.
"Well good morning baby." He chuckled as he saw me squirm around slightly. I cracked my eyes open at this and covered my face with my hands when he laughed.
"Good-good morning you gu-ys." Nikolai said as he woke up. No doubt in my mind that he was rustled awake by my movements.
"I was gonna go grocery shopping today, I just wanted to get a few things if that's alright." Lachlan told me as he climbed over us to get off of the couch.
I got up too and nodded at Lachlan, telling him that was fine.
'Just come back safe.' I told him seriously.
"Of course I will!" Lachlan said cheerily. "You know what, I'll actually go now so I can get some food for dinner later since it's already 1 pm." He said suddenly.
I looked over at the time in disbelief before nodding to him again. He hurried upstairs to get ready before rushing out of the door. I thought this behavior was weird but I let it go.
Nikolai stayed close to me the whole day, he helped me with anything I did and made sure I was drinking water throughout the day. I understood he was probably worried about what happened last night but he didn't need to dote on me and follow me around.
After and around two hours had passed, Lachlan still hadn't come back. I was getting really worried, what was taking him so long?
I was about to write to Nikolai about his when the front door opened and Lachlan stumbled in with groceries in his hands.
"Sorry it took my so long! I'm back not though." He said as he came in and set everything down.
'What took you so long?' I asked him.
"Oh nothing, just took my time." He told me as he shrugged. I was skeptical but let it go.
I made dinner shortly after we put all of the food away. I could hear Nikolai and Lachlan talking from the living room but their voices were staying so quiet that I couldn't hear them.
What are they up to?
