Lachlan had spoken about the things he had experienced while living on the streets before, but that didn't ever make it pleasant to hear.
"Lachlan-"
"No! He's my boyfriend and I love him, you can't do this to me!"
Stephen chewed on his lip for a moment, and he rose carefully, though he didn't advance on Lachlan in the fear Lachlan would run out of the apartment. "You can't tell me you don't realise you sound like you're talking about drugs right now," he pointed out, and Lachlan's just stared at him.
