Talking to Des and telling him the truth had been a burden off Alex's chest. At least someone knew where he was really going - knew if this killed him, because he was pretty sure it could, who exactly was to blame.
But if anyone was going to tell Luka, it had to be him, and it had to be face to face. If anyone had been a first-hand witness to his self-destruction, it had been his boyfriend, who had never wavered and never done anything but his best to support him.
When he got home, Luka was already there, and part of him was glad, but part of him was also terrified, because he really wasn't sure he was ready to do this.
"Luka? Can we talk?" He asked, and his voice shook, a little.

Luka came stumbling out of one of the rooms when he heard his name being called. "I'm up, I'm awake I swear." He totally hadn't just been asleep instead of doing whatever it was he was suppose to do... Nope. Totally awake. Luka scrubbed at his face before running his hand through his hair and trying to stifle a yawn. "What's up Pixie? What did you need to talk about??"
Noir Songbird this is disgustingly old omg ; 3;

Alex couldn't help but smile a little. Just seeing Luka made him feel better, made him feel a little warmer and a little less afraid. Because this was what he would be coming back to, when he made it through Schörl's terrible, dark hell.
But when it actually came time to speak, his nerves came back full force.
"It's, um, I mean," Alex fiddled with his fingers. "I need to stop drinking. I really, really need to stop drinking."
Not the best opener, but it was all he could manage.

Luka blinked widely at him. "Uh... Okay? So uh... Stop?" Luka was honestly a bit confused. "Bad experience with a bar? Or did you end up in Lila's secret stash again and got your a** kicked?" Luka didn't drink much as it was, so there wasn't a readily available stash at the house.

"It's a long story," Alex said, and he found himself playing a little with his hair - he'd let it grow, in the past year, and it was long enough to pull into a proper low ponytail now. "Just...you know I've gotten into some trouble, because of it. And I haven't been the best person and -- I'm not sure I can stop. On my own."
He inhaled.
"I need to go to rehab." He said. "I found a place, but I'm...I'll be like, unreachable. For a couple of weeks, at least, and I wanted to say goodbye and -" and then he decided to stop talking, and practically threw himself at Luka, reaching up to pull him down for a kiss, because that was the best goodbye he could think of.

"I've got time? Uh, if you need to talk about it anyway." Oh, nope. Alex was twirling his hair. Okay, back track. Abort mission. "Uuuuh. Well... I mean I figured it was something. You usually have bruises on you. So I figured you were either getting into scraps at bars, oooor you were tripping over all the furniture at Des' place. Both was a legit possibility."
"You've been fine Alex." At least when he was around him anyway. "You stop when I ask you to stop, and you don't really fight me if I put an end to things abruptly. You could do it on your own if you wanted."

"I want to talk about it," Alex acknowledged. "I...I just..." He couldn't. He couldn't tell Luka, because the last thing he wanted was for his wonderful, sweet, supportive boyfriend to be worrying about him being a magical vigilante. Or to look at him like he was a monster, or --
Or to draw Schörl's attention to him, any more than it already was.
"I don't think I can. Being able to put the bottle down in the moment isn't...it's not the same as cleaning up." He swallowed. "I'm gonna hurt myself. Or hurt you. Or do something really awful, something I'll regret."
