Matthew ran as fast as he could away from his boyfriend and the girl trying to take him from him. He ran until he reached his house and ran up the steps of his apartment building, getting weird looks from bystanders. He ran in the house, but didn't lock the door behind him. He didn't think Gilbert would follow him. He figured that the albino would have stayed with Elizabeta, possibly even being relieved for Matthew finding out. Now he didn't have to break it to him. Matthew wandered through his house to the bathroom and began looking for the pills...

Gilbert was still running after Matthew. He was worried and concerned about his love. Matthew hadn't heard everything Gilbert was going to say. He loved Matthew ten times more than he had ever loved Elizabeta. He always would, he realized. Gilbert finally reached the apartment and ran up after Mathew, getting the same weird looks from bystanders. He reached the room and opened the door, calling out Matthew's name. He saw the light in the bathroom was on. He walked towards it and opened the door. When he saw Matthew, he almost screamed.

Can't pretend that you're nothing special
You've got to look at all of your options
You can't decide what to go for
When it's all about trust
It's all about trust
-Red Is The New Black Avenged Seven Fold

Matthew was sitting on the floor sobbing having dumped all the dangerous pills down the sink. He couldn't bring himself to hurt Alfred, or even Gilbert, like that. He looked up bleary eyed at the confused, and almost teary eyed albino. Gillbert immediately got down and enveloped him in a hug, stroking his hair soothingly. "Shhhhh..Shhhh...It's gonna be alright now Love. I promise." he mumbled into Matthew's hair. The blonde clung to him and sobbed into his shoulder. "I don't love her Matthew." he said, deciding to get it out into the open. "I did love her romantically but now it's more like a love for a sister. I wasn't counting on you hearing that. If I had known you were there, I would have gotten straight to the point. I never wanted this to happen. I didn't want to hurt you." he whispered soothingly into Matthew's ear.

Matthew nodded and clung to him for dear life. "I-I sh-shouldn't h-have o-overreacted." he stammered upset still. "Nein nein Birdey." Gilbert murmured "You had every right to react like that. It was a compromising situation. I'm so, so, so, sorry." he said looking into the blonde's red-rimmed, teary eyes. Matthew nodded and was pulled into a gentle kiss. "I-I mainly over reacted because I had a nightmare similar to that." he mumbled burying his head into Gilbert's chest. "I was so scared all day that it would come true. I-I panicked." Gilbert grabbed his head and forced him to look at him. "I will never, NEVER, leave you Matt. I promise." he said, firmly. Matthew nodded, believing every word. Gilbert smiled and kissed his boyfriend again. "No more of this then." he said suddenly, and Matthew looked up. "No more tears. No more nightmares. I can't stand to see you upset any longer." he said softly to his love. Matthew nodded and snuggled into his arms.

From that day forth, Gilbert hardly left Matthew's side. They stayed together all through college and eventually, Matthew's nightmares stopped. Of course it wasn't BAM! Ok, we are gone in one night. It was a gradual thing, but he got through it. Matthew was the best man at his brother's wedding to Arthur. His brother agreed to be the best man in his if he and Gilbert ever decided to tie the knot. They eventually did and had a nice life together. Matthew looked back on that year that he met Gilbert as one of the best and worst years of his life. He was glad he had had those nightmares.
