“You okay?” George after a quiet moment, glancing up at his boyfriend. “That looks like a pretty good sandwich.”
-
"Y-Yeah, I'm- I'm fine," Clay replied with a quiet chuckle, picking up the sandwich. He stared at it for a moment before forcing it to his mouth, taking a bite.
-
“You sure? If you wanna talk, I’ll listen,” George said softly. “Please don’t treat me like I’m fragile-“
-
"I'm not- I mean, I'm not trying to, I just-" Clay exhaled softly, staring at the sandwich. "I just, forgot to get rid of the uhm, the razor and s-stuff-" He murmured shakily, his hands beginning to tremble.
-
“Oh, honey,” George frowned, gently rubbing Clay’s side with his thumb. “Do you want me to get rid of it?”
-
Clay thought for a moment before nodding, trying to keep himself from tearing up.
-
“Alright- I’ll be right back- where do you want me to put it?” George asked, standing and heading towards the bathroom.
-
"Just- away, I-I don't care," Clay murmured, exhaling shakily. "I just don't w-wanna see it..."
-
“Alright,” George whispered, taking the bag in the bathroom and tying it up. “Where do you usually put your trash? Does someone take it?”
-
"N-No, I- I usually take it out myself," Clay replied, letting out another shaky breath.
-
“Do you have to take it like, out, out? Or where do you put it?” George asked.
-
"I usually t-take it out back, but you- you can just leave it by t-the door," Clay said, glancing over at George. "I-I'll take it out later."
-
“Okay,” George said, heading to the door and leaving the bag sitting outside the door. “I’m sorry you had to see that, honey,” he said softly, heading back to the couch.
-
"I-It's okay," Clay murmured, exhaling softly. "My own fault, anyways," he muttered, staring at the plate in his shaky hands.
-
“But still, you regret it,” George whispered, kissing Clay’s head before sitting down next to him.
