Zephyr chewed on his lip add he listened. "It's not ruining my life, it's ruining his..." He whispered. His turn to lie. But he knew he was no good at it, shifted his weight self consciously. Zephyr had never been good at lying, it was a reason he sucked do bad at poker. He popped another coffee bean into his mouth.

"You're lucky, whether you wanna believe it or not.. You have someone who cares dearly for you. A lot of people would kill to have that.." He said, finishing off his shake. He suddenly felt overcome with relief, a feeling he had felt when he was talking with Nevada and knew that Zeph and Jax were here. He turned and saw a man standing at the door, his girlfriend at a table with their baby in her lap. 'Oh, there you are!' He told her. Mat just turned around again, then stood up. "Think they're done with your boyfriend?"

"I know.." He mumbled guiltily, glancing up to watch the couple. He nodded at the question, standing and rolling the bag up so it wouldn't spill. They were bound to be hyper within the hour. "Hope so.." Boyfriend. It still made his heart race.

"Come on, bad boy." He said, walking towards the door. He tossed his empty container in the trash, then started down the sidewalk. He kept his head down, staying close to the buildings so he didn't run into anyone. He didn't know why he constantly felt like Dylan was gonna come grab him and be excited to see him. He had no idea where he was. 'Just a little paranoid.' He thought, reaching up to fix his nose ring.

Zephyr glanced at him every once and awhile on the walk back, then headed inside and up to the room, setting the coffee beans aside. Caffeine past morning usually led to a restless night with the voices, and he knew he was in for it.

Jaxton was sound asleep, a breathing tube and IVs attached to him again. There was a small incision no bigger than the width of a soda tab that was closed with just three stitches. "You can't hear him breathing like earlier." Mat said, trying to imply he didn't sound as stuffy and his chest didn't sound like it was all blocked. He saw the boy was holding tightly to his necklace, and looked up at Zephyr.

Zephyr gazed down at him brokenly, but nodded, relieved that it had all gone over okay. He ran his fingers over Jaxton's fisted hand gently, then backed uo,, turning to slink towards one of the chairs.

Mat sat down on the floor, pulling the picture of Dylan out of his back pocket. He looked it over, thinking about how much he had changed since then. He had many more tattoos, looked older than he was in the picture. He bit his lip, sitting it on the floor. He stretched his legs out, closing his eyes.
Jax mumbled in his sleep, holding so tight to the necklace his knuckles turned white. Then he eased up, pulling the blanket closer. "Zeph..." He breathed, turning over onto his side.

Zephyr watched Mat for a moment until Jaxton breathed his name. He looked over at him, reaching out to take his free hand. He held it close as he watched him. "'M right here..."

"Missed you.." He mumbled, opening his eyes to look at Zeph. He squeezed his hand gently, reaching over his other hand to put his necklace in his lap. "Hold onto that for me.. They keep taking it.." He said, shifting his weight. He cleared his throat, then closed his eyes again, holding tightly to his hand. "You okay? I'm sorry you're sick.." He said, pulling his blanket up higher.

"I wasn't gone long.." He breathed, took the necklace and.clipped it around his neck so he wouldn't lose it. He gripped Jaxton's hand firmly. "It's not your fault.." He insisted. He never knew what was natural and what was because of Hades anymore.

"You were gone for two years.. That's kinda like forever." He said with a smile. "My sister used to tell me that when I wasn't home for a few days." He said, gently running his finger over Zeph's hand. He didn't care if it wasn't his fault. He still hated knowing he was sick. He yawned, tucking his other arm under his pillow. "I've never been the type to think I had anymore time than I had now. Even before I found out.. But when I did find out, it just made me want to keep going, prove everyone wrong. Because I had to find you."

Zephyr smiled faintly. "And you did, Jax... No matter what happens now, you did.." He leaned down and kissed him softly. "And even though these past few days have had me crying more than any others, I couldn't be happier to see your face again."

Jax smiled, meeting the kiss gently. He reached up, running his fingers over his cheek. "You're gonna play hell getting rid of me." He teased, watching him lovingly. He opened his mouth to say something else, but closed it when he heard Mat sniffle. He looked over, raising an eyebrow. "What?"
"You guys are so cute." He said, propping his head on his knees.

Zephyr smirked. "I already am to keep you," He huffed, biting his lip at the sniffle. Unlike Jaxton, he now knew what had happened with Dylan, felt back. He smiled weakly Mat's way.
