The manic emotional breakdown frightened him.

All he'd done was merely mention going out with White and Skirt and with that, Heath had snapped, out of control.

'You CAN'T go! You CAN'T leave me, we belong together!'

'Yes we do but-'

'Don't you DARE walk away and leave me!'

Hands on him tightened their grip. It was similiar to being crushed by coils of a large snake.

'I'm not dumping you, I'm only going for a drink or ten with with Sheamus and Drew.'

'Those worthless drunks aren't good enough to polish your shoes.'

Wade felt the anger burning from his husband, caught a glimpse of the ice cold glare, and wondered if this was some sort of male post partum freakout.

'I suppose I can cancel.'

'Yesssss, do that.'

'And reschedule.'

'Nooooo! Don't LEAVE me!' The hands squeezed around his waist, causing him to gasp for air, fish on land. 'We NEED to stay together forever!'

Then the tears came in a waterfall and Wade was overwhelmed.

He kissed the flushed sweaty face, petted the orange hair, smiled worried into the soaked warm neck.

'I'll never leave you. We rabbits have to stick together.'

The blank expression scared him.

True, this was his husband, so he'd seen many a blank look before, but this was...odd.

It was their own personal private joke, 'rabbits', referring to the cartoon couple, Roger and his voluptuous wife, the 'He makes me laugh' quote and Heath remained blank.

Burned out light in a dark room.

Something was wrong, the tantrums, the tears, the strangeness of this man who looked like his beloved but didn't act quite right, less normal than the usual charming ignorance.

Wade tried something he knew might work.

'How about...we make a visit to a furniture store?'

Big smile but still a empty look in the eyes.

'Yeah, beds and all. That'll be fun.'

Wade truly was disturbed.

Beds?

Beds?!

Not a mention of tables at all?!

Something was wrong with Heath.

He wasn't himself lately.

Seth fumed during the workout, watching Joey and Dean knock each other around in the ring.

This new performance center was amazing and he was too furious to enjoy it.

roman had Leo, his kook, and Joey, bread bag twist tie wedding ring still on his finger, apparently had hooked up with Dean, leaving Seth behind.

He'd been rejected, no good traitors.

Well, fuck that shit, he'd yell and argue and beat the crap out of Dean if he had to, make him see how stupid he was, making wrong decisions.

Because Seth was equally upset at himself for also doing idiotic things.

Like beginning to care about these losers he called Family.
