The next day after school Seth drove himself to the hospital, Roman wasn't happy that he was going alone but Seth assured him that he would be okay. He stopped by the hospital's gift shop picking up a vase full of assorted flowers along with a small teddy bear and a card. He hand wrote how sorry he was for his and Solomon's loss before sticking it on the card holder. Seth made his way to the elevators after the nurse told him what room Tyler was in, he hit the number three button. He walked down the hall coming to a stop on Tyler's room door he knocked and was greeted by a very tired looking Solomon who seemed surprised to see the two toned man standing there.
Seth explained that he wanted to see Tyler so they could talk and possible patch things up but mostly he wanted to check to see how Tyler was fairing. Sol hesitated for a moment before allowing Seth in warning him not to upset Tyler that he's been through enough already and didn't need any more problems.
Seth saw Tyler staring out the window as Sol went to his bed side, telling him he had a visitor and that he was going to go for coffee and would be back. Seth watched as Sol gave Tyler a kiss telling him how much he loved him caressing his arm before exiting the room. Seth made his way over to the smaller man seeing that he was banged up pretty badly, his wrist was in a splint and had stitches on his forehead. What got Seth were his eyes they were filled with such sadness that he found himself getting choked up. "I bought these for you there your favorite color." Seth said softly sitting the vase down on the small tray by the bed. Tyler looked at them a faint smile appearing on his face before it faded. "Why are you here Seth? You've made it pretty obvious how you felt about me the last time I saw you." Tyler spoke as Seth felt guilt washing over him as he recalled what he said that day.
"I came here to check on you and say that I'm sorry for your loss, I mean that with all my heart." Seth replied as Tyler looked at him "There's something else Seth what is it." Tyler asked as Seth bit his nail. "I wanted to tell you that I forgive you. Everything that's happen in the past year or so, I wanted to let you know that I forgive you." Tyler looked at the two toned man in clear shock. "I don't deserve to be forgiven Seth maybe this" he gestured to himself "Is my punishment for all the shitty things I've done its karma paying me back." Tyler stated as he shifted in the bed. "No one deserves something like this to happen to them no matter the circumstances Ty." Seth spoke as he moved closer to the bed sitting on the edge next to Tyler handing him the stuffed bear that he took playing with its ears.
Tyler looked into Seth's brown eyes hoping that the two toned man could see the remorse in his eyes. "I'm sorry for everything that's happen between us, rather you want to believe it or not. Baron played so many mind games with me and was able to manipulate me with sex that I probably would have killed on his behalf." The blonde admitted looking away ashamed "I loved him so much that I was too blind to see what he was doing or how he really was till it was too late." Tyler said as he took a shaky breath in before continuing. "Baron took the only thing away from me knowing how much it would deeply affect me." Tyler croaked out as Seth went to comfort his estranged friend. "Sol was looking forward to being a dad to my little girl even though she wasn't his he still accepted her." Tyler said through a sob as he held Seth. "Baron threw me down the stairs to spite Sol knowing he was looking forward to being a dad"
Seth maneuvered his way onto Tyler's bed so he could hold the blonde man as he cried into Seth's chest. Sol walked in, coffee in hand surprised to see the two toned man holding Tyler as he cried. Seth caught sight of Sol and started to retreat from Tyler but the blonde man wouldn't let him go. Sol gave a faint smile nodding his head as he took a seat in the chair flipping on the T.V. as he let the two men be.
When Tyler finally settled down Seth announced that he should leave so he could rest but was surprised when Tyler asked him to stay. Seth and Tyler talked getting reacquainted with each other and what they missed in the others lives as Sol ordered a few pizza's while the two men talked. Sol watched as Tyler laughed every now and then at Seth telling him he was always a spaz. He could see that their relationship was on the mends though it might take some time he could see them becoming friends again which made him happy.
Tyler was anxious to hear about Seth and Roman's relationship, and was glad their baby as well as Finn and Deans were okay. Tyler once again apologized for everything that Baron had done and Seth accepted knowing it would ease the blonde man's mind. "You and Roman were always great together; I knew you two would end up with each other one of these days." Tyler stated as Seth blushed "What about Sol? You guys together." Seth asked as Tyler glanced at Sol who was looking at him just then. "Yeah, he makes me happy and treats me good." Tyler replied through a smile. "Correction Tyler you're the one who makes me happy and I'm lucky to have you in my life." Sol chimed in causing Tyler to tear up as he looked at Seth. The three ate and continued on making conversation with each other till the nurse came in to give Tyler his meds for the night.
When Tyler's meds starting kicking in and he became sleepy Sol offered to walk Seth out to his vehicle since it was night time. He had texted Roman telling him that he was on his way and that Sol was walking him out to his car. When they approached Seth's car they saw that the driver side window and back window had been busted. Upon further inspection the two back tires were slashed also "What the hell" Seth said in shock looking at the damage as Sol called for a squad car to come down telling them to send a tow truck as well. Seth was on the phone with Roman explaining what happen when screeching tires were heard as headlights flashed on speeding out the parking lot.

Baron pulled out the parking lot when he saw Sol and Seth walking out; he just finished giving Roman's car a makeover before they showed up. He checked his rear view mirror checking to see if any police cars were behind him. When he was in the clear he pulled out his phone hitting the green button when the familiar voice answered Baron couldn't help but grin. After a few short minutes on the phone as well as some intense flirting Baron was able to find a place to stay low for a while till the heat was off of him.
Three hours later he found himself pulling up to a house the porch light coming on as he approached. He heard the front door open, revealing his next meal ticket for the time being. Baron approached the man wrapping his arms around him, placing kisses on his neck telling him how much he missed him and how he was a fool for not choosing him. The smaller man looked up at Baron with a smile seeing the tatted man's tear filled brown eyes. "Let's get you inside and will talk in the morning." The man said softly as he closed the door when Baron was inside. The tatted man encircled his arms around the small waist leaning down whispering in the man's ear "Thank you Sami"

Dean was in the guest bedroom lying down, Roman and his dad had left a few hours ago to get Seth and deal with the towing company. It was close to ten when Dean heard his phone go off he smiled as he saw it was a text from Finn telling him that he missed him and that sleeping without him sucked. The blonde man couldn't help but smile he missed waking up with Finn in his arms. Dean replied back to Finn's text telling him that he missed him as well that in a week they would be living together and able to spend all the time they wanted. Dean grinned as he sent a text telling Finn that they would have to break their bedroom in along with the shower and maybe the laundry room.
Finn sent an emoji that was blushing that caused the blonde man to laugh because he knew his boyfriend was red right now. He sent a final text telling Finn that he loved him and for him to tell their baby he loved him/her as well. Finn sent a reply back telling Dean how lucky he was to have an amazing boyfriend like him who he wanted to spend forever with before telling him goodnight. The blonde reread the last part of the message he was sure Finn didn't get the significance of what he just told him. Dean entertained the thought of marriage for a few minutes before setting his phone down, one day at a time he told himself.
