Kit woke up wrapped around Albus, feeling warm and happy and content, but also sort of dreading today because as nice as it had been, staying with Albus, today was the day he had to leave and Scorpius was coming back. It was the day things got decided. He and Albus had fallen right back into doing everything the way they had before they broke up and today had the potential to be very painful.

He kissed Albus's forehead, then slid out of bed and walked to the kitchen, starting up the coffee machine to make them both a cup. Even if Albus decided their romantic relationship was over, they could always be friends, right? It would suck. A lot. At least at first. But it was doable. Kit fixed two cups of coffee when the pot finished brewing, then walked back over to Albus's bed and sat down next to him, kissing the corner of his mouth. "Coffee, sleeping beauty."

	Albus had slept really good for the first time in what seemed like forever. He stirred when he heard Kit's voice and smiled to himself as he sat up and looked at him. He took the coffee. "Good morning." He smiled, but then Albus realised that he wasn't dating Kit anymore. And Scorpius was coming home. "Oh. It's today." (Reply to this)(Thread)

"Yeah, it's today," Kit agreed, giving Albus a sad sort of smile. He took a sip of his coffee, sliding under the covers with Albus again, pressed against his side as they sat with their cups of coffee. "I wish I didn't have to go. I hope I get in next semester so we can spend more time together."

He looked at Albus. "I've really liked being with you again. It feels so good, you know? Like before I was missing an arm or something and when I came and saw you again I got it back."

	"I felt the same way. Being with you is just... natural." Albus kissed his neck softly and let out a sigh. He sipped at his coffee, then gave Kit a very serious look, deciding. "If you don't get in, I'm transferring." He admitted. "I'm not going to spend time away from you again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Kit opened his mouth to protest, then stopped. He'd get in. He was going to kill his audition this time. Give them raw, unfettered emotion that would knock their socks off. He was much more desperate this time. He wanted it so badly. "Okay," he agreed. "I know I'm going to get in this time. So okay."

He leaned in, kissing Albus on the mouth, hand brushing against his cheek. "I love you, Alby," Kit whispered. "I wish I didn't have to go."

	Albus smiled at Kit. He believed that he could get into his school. There was no doubt that he could make it in and they'd spend a lot of time together. He smiled to himself as he looked down at his coffee, then leaned in and kissed him softly. "Only coffee?" He asked. "Should I get up and make breakfast?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Kit laughed. "Why don't we make it together?" he suggested. "You know I'm a better cook than you are. You handle the bacon and I'll make pancakes."

He stole another kiss from Albus, then slid out of bed. "I have time before I have to go catch my train. I... When is Scorpius coming back?" Kit asked, even though he didn't really want to bring Albus's boyfriend up in conversation.

	Albus glanced at his phone, then back at Kit. "I honestly have no idea. He hasn't even texted me very often while he's been gone. As you could probably tell. I haven't even had to look at my phone." He sighed softly and pushed himself off the bed. "It's like he's too busy to talk to me or something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Scorpius was working, but Kit wasn't going to defend the other boy. The only thing that would prevent him from texting Albus would be being in the middle of a show. "Maybe... I don't know. Anything I suggest has selfish intentions."

Kit walked to the kitchen, setting his coffee cup down and beginning to dig through the cupboards to get out everything they needed for pancakes. "But maybe you're better off as friends. You don't seem happy, Albus."

	"I know. I'd be happy if my boyfriend didn't disappear and not text me." Albus sighed heavily, glancing at his phone again. "Even if he's working, he should have time to actually text me or send me a picture or something." Albus sat on a stool at the bar and felt himself start to cry. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Albus took the bag and looked down at the sheet music that Scorpius had gotten him. He was going to feel sorry for the way he was acting, but then Scorpius was talking about Louis Vuitton hiring him for a campaign. "You- Does that mean you're going to be gone again?" Albus asked, giving Scorpius a sad look. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Albus was sitting on the counter sobbing by the time that Kit had gotten to the bathroom. He looked at him with tear soaked eyes and shook his head. He felt so pathetic. "I can't do anything." Albus told him quietly, feeling like hitting something. "I can't make anyone happy. I'm a horrible boyfriend." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Albus looked back at Kit sadly and shook his head. "I hurt you. I cheated on you with Scorpius. And then Scorpius didn't even want to be around me half the time. And he was always so mad at me." He held onto Kit. "We worked so well together. And I can't figure out why." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
