Alex stood at the front door to Luka's house, a slight frown on his face. He'd gotten Des to bring him, and then sent the purple-haired man away because he had to do this himself.
Slowly, even slower than his usual gait, he hobbled p to the door and knocked. "Luka? Luka, are you in there?" He asked, his voice surprisingly weak. He wasn't sure he could do this. Maybe Luka had taken his rejection as final, maybe he'd misinterpreted that text - maybe Luka would send him away no matter what he felt.
He rested his fist and his forehead on the door, steeling himself and waiting.

Luka groaned and pulled the blankets closer around him as he rolled over.. -Thump- Too bad for him he'd literally just rolled off the bed. "Uuugh alright. I'm up I'm u- s**t!" Luka cursed as he climbed up only to fall over as he was effectively cocooned in his blankets. "I'm coming!" He called, yawning in the process. It took a few minutes, and another half dozen falls before Luka managed to get to the door, blanket still half wrapped around him. "Sup?" He asked sleepily as he scrubbed at his face. It was evident that the man had just woken up.

Alex frowned at the sound of thumps and bumps from inside, and stepped away from the door when they got closer. Seeing Luka a mess and wrapped in blankets made him sink a little into himself.
"I didn't realize you were sleeping, sorry," he said, and then he took a breath. What the hell was this? He was Alex Msters and he could totally handle any situation, especially maybe confessing his feelings to someone who had already confessed to him (who might have been lying oh god please no.) "I, um, wanted to talk to you."
So much for confidence.

"Break from school." He supplied. "Didn't have anything else to do so I figured why not." Luka leaned on the door, staggering when he swung further open. "...It's bright.." He commented. "Oh uh, you can come in."

"Lie harder, Luka, we go to the same school," Alex said. "I've missed classes because I can't walk. What's your excuse?" He slipped in, shutting the door behind him, and then sighed. "That was mean, sorry."
Guh, how to broach the topic of actual feelings?
"You're a pretty fantastic cockblock, by the way." Apparently with more sarcasm and deflection. "I was in the middle of making a very bad decision about who to go home wiht when I got your text."

"Darling. I'm 20. Last time I check, I'm in co- .... Right we both are. Sorry, I'ma little slow waking up." He waved a hand as he staggered back down the hallway to his room. "Hmm? Oh. I'm... sorry?" Luka wasn't sure if he was being praised or reprimanded. "Er.. Should I not have texted you?"

"hey, hey, stop," Alex reached out, gently grabbing the blanket. He was aiming for Luka's arm, but, well, cocoon... "I'm glad you sent me that text because when I say I was about to make a bad decision, I mean I was about to make a really bad decision, and you stopped me." The sex would've been fantastic - the ensuing guilt, less so.
"And besides, it made me realize something. Kicked my brain into gear, I guess."

Luka whined when he was caught. He was tired, and bed was calling. "Oh.." He said again, shaking his head in an attempt to wake himself up more. "Are you okay? What's the matter."

"I love you," Alex said, finally just going for blurting out the words. He let go of Luka and rocked back on his heels, and the only word for the look on his face was "fear." If this all went wrong and Luka turned him down...he didn't know what he'd do.

"Huh?"
Well that woke him up. Luka blinked down at the man he had a foot on in height. Watched as he rocked nervously, looking everywhere but up at him. "Alex... Don't do this just to humor me. You don't have to do this because of something I said."

"Do you really think I'd do that?" Alex asked, frowning. "Lie to you about something do important? I love you, Luka," he sighed, "but I guess I can see why you wouldn't believe me."

Luka shrugged half heartily. "I've had people tell me that before.. It's a habit I suppose." He shook his head then, reaching out to brush Alex's bangs aside, his hand going down to skim Alex's cheek before resting on his neck. "Though you've given me know reason not to trust in you."

Alex reached up to rest a hand on Luka's, smiling faintly. "Yeah, I heard about your shitty dating history," he confessed quietly. "I know I'm not...really boyfriend material, but I want to be with you. I've never..felt this way and had the other person feel the same, so...uncharted waters..." He was rambling and he knew it, but he couldn't stop.

"That guy can't keep his mouth shut. I swear.." Luka muttered as he pulled Alex to him. Wrapping his arms, and the blanket around the shorter man, Luka hugged him gently. "You're scared. I get it. It's okay Alex, everything will be okay."

Alex tucked himself up against Luka. "I'm terrified, really," he admitted, smiling faintly. "I don't want to screw this up. You deserve the best I can give you."
