The house was quiet when Zeke got home. Nothing was making a sound, besides the hum of the fridge. Then he saw Yasmine and Travis on the couch. Travis was leaning on Yasmine's shoulder with Yasmine's hand resting on top of his head.
"Mom?" Travis visibly tensed. Zeke's heart clenched.
Yasmine turned around and smiled. "Hey, sweetheart. Me and Travis were just sitting here, relaxing." Zeke sighed and walked around the couch. Travis glanced at him for a second before looking down and biting his lip. He was just wearing his briefs and a shirt. Zeke's shirt.
Zeke smiled. "You're wearing one of my shirts." Travis eyes widened and started taking it off. Zeke bent down and grabbed his hands. "No. That's not what I meant." He let go of Travis' hands. Travis let go of the shirt. Zeke looked to Yasmine. "Mom.. Can you leave the house for a little bit?"
She looked like she would say no, but at the last second agreed to. "Can you tell Austin not to come home for a while too?" She nodded her head. Zeke stood in front of Travis until Yasmine left. When she did, Zeke bent down onto his knees in front of Travis. "Babe. I'm sorry. I over-reacted over something stupid."
Travis still wasn't looking at him. "Travis... I'm really sorry. I just freaked. I shouldn't have broken up with you." Travis flinched. Zeke saw this and winced himself. "I'll make it up to you." Zeke placed his hand on Travis' thigh; ignoring the tensing of muscles. He picked it up and kissed the inside.
He kissed up to his crotch. He looked up to see Travis. His head was turned away and his face looked pained. Like he was about to cry. Like he was scared. "Travis..." He turned his head towards him. "I'm not going to hurt you, I swear." He almost pulled his hand away when he felt something wet on it.
Travis was crying.
Zeke's eyes widened. "Baby, did I hurt you?" Panic seeped into his voice. Travis opened his mouth but all that came out was a rasphy 'no'. "Talk to me."
"You.." Travis shook his head.
"What about me? Please talk to me." Travis leaned forward and put his head on Zeke's shoulder.
"I love you so much." He was shaking. "But you hurt me so much. All the time." Zeke's heart quickened. "I don't think we should-" Zeke covered his mouth.
"Please don't say that." Zeke's breathing was fast. "Travis I made a mistake. I won't hurt you ever again." Travis shook his head. "Please Travis." Travis' eyes widened when he felt tears on his shoulder. "Travis I swear I won't. Please take me back."
Travis took a calming breath. He slowly wrapped his arms around Zeke. "Don't leave me again, Ezekiel."
Zeke pulled away and placed a kiss on Travis' temple. "I won't."
Zeke layed on the couch with Travis on top of him. They held each other tightly. Both ended up falling alseep.
Even days after, Travis never asked why Zeke broke up with him. He was afraid he'd do it again.
"Mom?" Travis visibly tensed. Zeke's heart clenched.
