BLUE Chapter Fourty-Nine
It was late already and Seb had almost given up on Alex returning his calls when he finally had his phone ring, signifying an incoming call from him. He was probably unable to sleep, still worried about everything that happened so fast and finally ready to speak to him, he thought and without hesitation, swiped to pick the call. "Hey." Much to his surprise, he didn't hear the familiar voice of his boyfriend over the phone. Instead, it was the voice of a woman, seeming grown and oddly sounding familiar. "Hello?" "Blue?" He asked in confusion. On hearing the voice for a second time he was sure it wasn't Alex who was speaking. "Is that you?" "Sebastian, is that you?" The person said in return. "It's me, Carol. Alex's aunt." He heaved a sigh of relief and almost immediately, had his heartbeat quicken again. "Carol?" "Yes, it's me," she confirmed. "Um, Alex left his phone behind so I just wanted to ask if he was at your place." "What?" Seb's heart stopped for a second. "What did y
BLUE Chapter Fifty
After a couple of minutes more, they were all finally allowed to go in to see Alex. Seb walked in, Carol and Lucas taking lead as they moved towards Alex’s bed. He was changed into the typical patient’s outfit, a bandage wrapped around his head, few machines connected to him. They all stared at him, no words getting uttered. After a while, Carol heaved a sigh and walked out, Lucas doing the same to leave the room empty with just Alex and Seb in it. “Blue,” Seb moved closer towards Alex when it was just them in the room. Sighing, he took a seat next to him and placed his hand on his. “What were you thinking? I am the one who was supposed to get hurt after jumping out of the window. Why are you the one here?” Getting nothing but the beeping sounds from the machines in response, Seb ran his hands through his hair in frustration. “Seriously, why are you doing this to me? I told you were going to get through this together so why- Forget it, I’m going to get mad at you properly when
BLUE Chapter Fifty-One
None of them could remember the order with which they left Alex’s room but all they could recall was all getting into Carol’s car and in no time, getting to the hospital. They got to the hospital and immediately headed to Alex’s room. Sounds of gratitude escaped their lips as they stepped into his room, watching him sit up on his bed, eyes open and having less machines connected to him. “Alex,” his aunt let out, walking towards him. He looked up at her, looking way better than he did the previous night and had her heave a sigh of relief. “How are you? How do you feel?”“I’m fine, Aunt Carol,” he replied her. “What happened? How did you find me?” “I’m sure you know you obviously got into an accident,” she said to him. “Seb found you and brought you here. What happened?” “I-” “It’s fine,” she quickly cut him off, patting his hand. “We’ll talk about that later. All that matters right now is that you’re fine.” “You should have seen yourself when they rushed you here,” Lucas playful
BLUE Chapter One
Alex Croft was going to be graduating high school in a few days and he was literally counting down to the big moment.High school had never been one of his favorite places to be and it still took him by surprise whenever he thought about how he managed to survive the 6 years of it. They were far from being six years of pleasure as he spent them alone. Literally, alone.He had always been by himself for as long as he could remember. The last time he could remember probably having someone he could call a friend was elementary school. Ever since his friend then moved and changed schools, he was left alone and simply had no interest in making new friends. He continued like that throughout elementary school and when he finally transferred to his new high school with hope of becoming a bit more friendly, his life took a drastic turn.Few days into his new school, his mum fell sick. He and his parents shared the basic relationship most families shared with each other so quite naturally, his
BLUE Chapter Two
If Alex got a dollar for every time he refreshed his email hoping for a letter of acceptance, he'd have being a millionaire.Groaning, he shut his laptop and got up, quickly concluding him roaming around his mail and the school page wasn’t going to make things happen any faster.He flipped his hood over his head and then headed downstairs. Shoving his hands down his pocket as he got halfway down the stairs, he began to mentally picture what the interior part of the fridge looked like and what he could have as a snack out of it.It was a Monday and as expected, he was home alone. His dad was off to work, leaving him, who had successfully graduate high school few days ago, home alone.Grabbing a bag of chips immediately he opened the fridge, he headed towards the living room. Plopping into the nearest seat, he grabbed the remote and turned on the TV.“Goodness!” Alex exclaimed as he stared at the TV screen in front of him, immediately reaching to change the channel. In front of him, wer
BLUE Chapter Three
Alex sat on the floor in the living room, knees drawn close towards him, lost in thought.He had remained in that position ever since he dialed the number he found in his dad's most recent call log which had a colleague of his dad arrive in a few minutes alongside an emergency van and several other staffs of the hospital.He felt an unexplainable pain in his chest as he watched them wheel his dad's lifeless body away. Dr. Reeds, his dad's colleague and friend, walked up to him to console him and tell him not to worry too much as he already spoke to an older relative. Who the relative was or what they even spoke about, Alex had no idea but still couldn't bring himself to ask.The entrance to the door was still wide open and he could hear voices and sympathetic sounds coming from the neighbors who had just heard of the tragic incident, reminding him of how pathetic his life had become in only a few hours."Alex sweetheart!"Alex raised his head to see a woman dressed in dark jeans and a
BLUE Chapter Four
Aunt Carol. I didn’t want to wake you from your seeming peaceful sleep so instead I’m writing you this note. I have somewhere I need to be so you won’t be seeing me at home when you wake up. Don’t worry about me, I’ll be back before evening. Here’s my phone number just in case.-Alex.It was barely 7am when Alex left the house.His aunt had returned home late the previous night and had simply gone to bed. Partially because he didn’t want to wake her and cause he couldn’t face her and lie to her, he left a note for her on the table in the living room.He was dressed in dark jeans with a white hoodie and a black t-shirt underneath. His unwashed hair was covered in the hood of his hoodie, the pride flag he picked from the trashcan laying in his pocket.From the flyer, he knew he needed to take a train to get to where the pride parade was going to be starting. To get there as early as possible, he left home as early as he could and boarded the train to leave.After close to two hours of r
BLUE Chapter Five
Their trip to the U.S lasted roughly 8 hours.Alex had managed to pack all his things in just two boxes, surprising Aunt Carol. She commented on him not having a lot of stuffs but unknown to her, he had left dozens of stuffs back at home. Locked up in his room and the house with him having no plan to return to.He was going to be starting a new life and thus was trying to get rid of as much things as possible from his past.As they boarded the plane and sat in their designated seats, Aunt Carol looked at Alex and took his hands in hers. She squeezed them not looking away from him and managed a smile.“Are you okay?”“Yes,” Alex wasn’t sure of what exactly she meant but knowing his answer was going to be the same regardless, he replied. “I’m okay.”“Are you sure you packed all your things? You sure you didn’t leave anything behind? You know you would be away for a very long time.”He nodded in response. “Yes, I packed everything necessary.”“Alright then,” she said then adjusted her si

BLUE Chapter Fourty-Eight
“Alex, are you-” Alex eyes immediately flew open, glancing at Seb on top him almost naked and then his aunt by the door, eyes widened, frozen in shock and horror. “Oh my God,” Alex immediately gasped, Seb reflexly getting off him. Lowering his t-shirt to cover his upper body, he got off his bed and looked at Carol. “Aunt Carol-” She raised her hand to stop him from talking then sent her gaze to the floor. Unable to bring herself to look at them, she shook her head and immediately turned to leave the room without uttering a single word. “Shit,” Alex cursed the minute she left, realization hitting him all over again. He kept on cursing, his hands running through his hair as he did. “Shit, shit.” “Hey,” Seb quickly put on his shirt then walked towards Alex. “Hey, calm down.” “What?” Alex gave him a quick glance before shaking his head. “How am I supposed to do that? Don’t you realize what just happened? Did you see the look on her face?” “Blue-” “She looked horrified,” Alex sho
BLUE Chapter Fourty-Seven
The next few weeks went by rather quickly.It was the finally the first day of a new semester and both Alex and Seb were fully prepared. Having spent the past few weeks together, they had both gotten extremely used to each other’s presence. Alex: See you at school then! Replying Seb’s last message, Alex grabbed his backpack and headed downstairs. Ever since he got back from London, his closeness with Seb had been visibly obvious to even his aunt. Though she thought they were nothing but good platonic friends, Alex had no intention of changing her mind any time soon. “Good morning, Aunt Carol,” announcing his presence with a greeting, Alex took a seat on the dining right opposite his cousin. “Morning, Alex,” she replied him with the same ever cheerful voice. “Was just about to have Lucas call you. So how’s it going? Ready for a new semester? Wow, it feels like it was just yesterday you moved here.” “Well,” he couldn’t say the same though. A lot had happened since he moved in. A
BLUE Chapter Fourty-Six
Alex woke up with a smile on his face. He turned, feeling Seb’s grip around his waist tighten and chuckled in return, memories of the previous night flooding back. The non-existent distance between them gave him the opportunity to stare at Seb to his heart’s content. He was sleeping so peacefully, with his arms wrapped around his waist. His chest and whole body was bare, Alex blushing at the sight. “How long are you going to be staring at me for?” “You,” Alex faked a scowl. “When would you stop pretending to be asleep?” “Never,” he nuzzled Alex’s hair, pulling him even closer. “I love watching you watch me.” “That makes no sense.” “Maybe,” Seb smiled. “How are you?” Blinking at Seb’s randomness, Alex thought of a reply. He was a lot of things. Happy, sore- to name a few. “I’m great. How about you?” In response, Seb had his fingers caress Alex’s face. He smiled, uttering no words as he allowed himself get lost in the moment. He liked him so much. So much he felt like his h
BLUE Chapter Fourty-Five
Immediately after breakfast, Alex and Seb stepped out of their hotel room to get into the car to head to Alex’s old home. The ride was silent and Seb could easily notice how nervous Alex was. At intervals, he pressed his lips together, rubbed his palms against each other and had sighs escape his lips an unusual amount of times. Seb on the other hand, wasn’t sure on how to feel. It was frustrating for him to watch Alex panic and eventually, ended up holding his hand throughout the ride trying to make him feel better. “You can pull over here,” Alex said, letting go of Seb’s hands. “We’re only a stroll away now.” “Okay,” Seb nodded then pulled over. He watched him unclasp his seatbelt, did the same and stepped out of the car after Alex.True to Alex’s words, they were right in front of the house after only walking past a few blocks. He stopped, took a deep exhale then walked to the main entrance. Hesitating for a while, Alex took the keys out of his pocket and shoved it into the ke

“Good morning.” “Hey,” Alex replied, slowly opening his eyes to the light as Seb opened the curtains. “Good morning.” “Did I wake you?” Seb asked, adjusting the blinds. “I mean do you want to get some more sleep?” “No, it’s fine I’m up already,” Alex replied then sat up, watching Seb give the blinds a final tug before walking to take a seat next to him. “How long have you been up?” “About thirty minutes ago?” Seb answered, stroking Alex’s dishevelled hair. “You were sleeping so peacefully so I didn’t want to wake you up.” “How about you? Were you able to sleep well?” “Mhm mhm,” Seb nodded. “Thanks to your hug I was able to sleep like a baby.” “You mean you shit your pants and cried all night?” “Hell no,” Seb laughed then got up. “You know what I mean.” “Yeah,” Alex smiled, glad Seb’s mood was better. “I should get up and get ready.” “Yeah you should do that,” Seb replied him. “I have some spare clothes you can change into.” “Alright.” He headed to the bathroom and after fe

"A quick check, we'll be going over to your dad's by 7, right?" "But before then, we've got the whole day to ourselves, baby," Seb spread his arms wide. "This is London! Let's tour this city to our hearts content!" After cuddling the whole previous night, it was only expected of Seb to wake up feeling extra giddy. The version of him reluctant to visit his dad had gone up into smoke, leaving a very ecstatic Seb behind. "I should be the one giving you a tour," Alex said as they stepped out of their room. "You're the foreigner here." "Oh, please," Seb dramatically said. "We don't know we're pretty much the same in that case. Throughout your nineteen years of living here, I'm pretty sure you visited only a handful of places here." "How dare you." "Or if you don't mind we could try counting all of them on my fingers," Seb stretched out his arm. "Oh my, I don't think I'll be needing an extra hand." "Shut up," Alex glared playfully at him. "Fine. But I better be blown away by the end o
