"Once you'd gone, there was never an honest word..."
Who? nickthewarbler and warble_on_jeff
What? Fall back and regroup.

Where? Dani's place
Rating: Probably high-ish for language and topics
The first week of Nick's trial had been nearly enough to kill Jeff. All the information that had come out about Nick's life, and how he'd been treated by the man who was supposed to love and care for him was enough to break Jeff's heart. He hated it... hated knowing that the man he loved with all his heart had been treated so badly. The medical records, with pictures and all had ripped his heart out. He'd heard about the injuries, but seeing the photos of them had made him sick. He'd actually left the courtroom at the recess and found the nearest bathroom to throw up.
But the weekend had been time for them to go back into the safety of Dani's house, the bedroom they shared becoming something like a cave where they could safely hibernate together until Monday. When Sunday morning came, Jeff woke to find Nick already awake, sitting up quietly in bed and watching him. With a sleepy sigh, Jeff rubbed at his eyes and looked at Nick. "What time is it?" he asked before a big yawn escaped him. "Is something wrong?"
