FISHER HOME
Alex's
lips are soft, a little wet,
as they crush against
Jason's.
It takes Jason what feels like an
eternity to realize exactly what is going on. And the moment after it registers,
he jerks away from Alex.
"Whoa," Jason says, raising a hand
to his lips. He looks directly at Alex and stops his hand from wiping his
mouth. "Alex ..."
"Oh, God." Alex face goes cold. "Jason,
I thought--I just--"
"It's okay," Jason assures him, fighting
every instinct in his body that is shouting at him to let loose.
"I-I'm sorry. I gotta go." Alex snaps
around and takes a step in the direction of the door.
Jason grabs his arm to stop him.
"Alex, don't go."
Alex tries to tug his arm away. "Please,
Jason -- just let me go."
"I-In a second. Alex, I just want
you to know ... I don't want you to think that I hate you or anything.
It's not--I don't. I know how confusing this must be, and how hard it must
be for you."
The sentiment hangs in the air and
Jason finds himself wondering how much more of a mess this could become.
But finally, Alex looks up at him with soft, blue eyes.
"I support you, buddy," Jason continues.
"I do. And I'm gonna try my best to help you through this."
Alex swallows hard. "Thanks." He
pauses, as if he is going to say something more. But all he does is repeat,
"Thanks." And he turns back for the door.
This time, Jason lets him go.
