One more chapter after this. I hope you all are enjoying the story so far! 

- A l e k s POV -

I wanted to talk to Eddie. I needed to talk to Eddie. I couldn't really pour my emotions out to James. I didn't want to make him stressed. I texted Eddie while I was in the car and I told him that I was coming to the office and to be ready to meet me in my personal office. He didn't text back but I could see that he had read it. 

We arrived at the office and I stepped out looking back at James. He seemed sad but I shook it off. "I'll see you later." I told him and with that he drove off. I rushed into the office.

Jordan and Dan were recording something, I didn't bother asking. I just walked straight to my personal room, waving to anyone I walked past. When I opened the door Eddie was spinning himself in my chair looking down at his phone. He looked up. "Hey, dud-" I cut him off starting to pour out my feelings.

"James wants to do brain surgery. It's so risky though. It's so dangerous. He doesn't understand that brain surgery isn't the right way to go. I didn't try to explain either because, it's his choice you know? It's not like we are married or anything. So my opinion doesn't matter, right? When I was coming inside, he looked so sad that I was leaving. Like he wanted me to stay but I just couldn't. I needed to go and I needed to tal-" I was cut off as Sly stood up and cut me off just like I did him. 

"Woah, you need to slow down, speed Gonzales." He said to me as he put his hands upon my shoulders and smiled. "Take a deep breath. Now, did you tell James how you feel about him yet?" He asked me and I shook my head. "Why?" I blinked blankly. 

"Well, because he might not feel the same way." I told him as Eddie began to sigh, shaking his head at me. "What? What is it?"

"James might die." He said and I felt my shoulders slouch down. I avoided eye contact with Eddie as I felt my eyes start to swell up. "If you love him, tell him while you can. I don't mean to be harsh right now, but if he dies, you won't ever be able to tell him. You won't ever know if he feels the same way." 

Eddie was right. I should confess my feelings to James while I can. I tried to ignore the fact that James could die. What was more important is that I loved James and I needed to tell him...he had a right to know anyway. 

- J a m e s POV -

I was sitting in my room, recording a video about how I was going to be off of YouTube for a little bit. I needed to get some things figured out. I told them that maybe every once in awhile I'd do a stream, maybe with Aleks as a special guest. I smiled at the thought of Aleks. 

I ended the video and as I did my phone went off. I raised my eyebrow. 

Aleksandr: I'm coming home. We need to talk.

I sighed. It was probably about what we were all going to do with Creature Talk since I was having my personal issues and nobody, especially my fans should see me like that. I wasn't big on showing my appreciation to my fans but I believe that they knew I was very thankful to have them.

I was sitting on my computer, editing a video. I heard the door open to the house and I continued editing. I figured he would come searching for me and the first place he would go is my room. I heard my door open as I turned to look towards him. 

"Well, come on in, you fucker. Don't just stand there." He would of usually say I was a fucker right back but instead he remained serious and walked over, sitting on my bed. He sighed as he looked at me. He seemed nervous and tense. I frowned. 

"Are you okay?"

- A l e k s POV -

When I walked into the room, James was at his computer editing a video. He looked over at me and said, "Well, come on in, you fucker. Don't just stand there." He said to me. I didn't really crack a smile but I saw him frown. I felt bad. I think he thought I was going to say something bad that would ruin his mood.

I broke my thoughts when he asked if I was okay. I looked up and took a deep breath. "No, I'm not, James." 

"Whats wrong? Did something bad happen, or what?" He asked me as I felt my nervousness really kick in. 

"James, I..." I trailed off as he cocked his head, looking at me. I tried again. "James, I really l..." I trailed off again. 

"Just fucki--" James wasn't able to finish his sentence because I had pulled him into a gentle kiss. My lips touching his was magic. It was something I thought would never happen but it was happening. It didn't last for long because, I couldn't feel him kiss me back. I pulled away and left him in a daze. I sighed as I rubbed the back of my neck. 

"I'm sorry." I told him before turning around and walking to my room, shutting the door and locking it.
