A tall man stood, looking down at them with narrowed eyes. His hair was a light brown, and he looked rather well-off. These things in themselves was nothing strange; what was strange was the way his eyes had snagged on Alex.

Gabe frowned a bit, moving a little to be more between the man and Alex.
"Can I help you?" He didn't know why, but the man set him on edge.

The man let out a breath. "I wasn't expecting to see you around here still, Alexander." he said, lip curling in a faint sneer. Alex's eyes went wide, and he clung to Gabe, hiding his face. "Go away." he said quietly. "Please."

Gabe moved himself completely between Alex and the man, one arm moving slightly around the man behind him.
"I would suggest leaving," Gabe said. "I'm not know for being kind to those that hurt the people I choose to help." His face grew hard.

"Me, hurt him?" Henry sneered again. "Do you even know what he's done?" He gestured to Alex. Alex flinched, clinging to Gabe's arm.

"It doesn't matter what someone has done. What matters is how you act now. And you, my good sir, are being an ass." Gabe sneered this time. He turned to Alex a moment, face softening.
"Let's go back," he said softly. "I don't want this man harassing you any more."

"That's Henry." Alex whispered, hiding his face in Gabe's shoulder, trembling a little bit.

Henry crossed his arms.

Gabe was still a moment. Then, he stood, glaring at Henry. He clenched his fist, so, so close to punching this man.
"How dare you ask me if I know what Alex had done. You're the reason he's so… So broken. You're the reason he was sent away, and- and-" Gabe was furious.

Gabe was still a moment. Then, he stood, glaring at Henry. He clenched his fist, so, so close to punching this man.
"How dare you ask me if I know what Alex had done. You're the reason he's so… So broken. You're the reason he was sent away, and- and-" Gabe was furious.

Henry snorted, lip curling. "He was broken long before I met him." He retorted. "I just wish I had recognized it sooner, before he twisted my mind to be almost as sick as his."

Gabe growled a little.
"How dare you," he snarled. He looked at Alex a moment, motioning for him to stand. They were getting out of there.

Alex stood up, looking at Henry with a strange expression in his eyes.

Henry snorted. "He's sick. He should have stayed in that asylum."

Gabe stepped towards Henry now, grabbing his shirt.
"He's not the one who should have gone," he growled in Henry's face.

Henry arched an eyebrow. "Who would you think belongs there: an upright citizen with a wife and child, or a sodomite who has admitted to seeing things that aren't really there?" He replied, not seeming worried about Gabe's anger.

"How about the one who abandoned their lover and sent them away to rot so he'd never have to think about him again?" Gabe snarled. He was close to killing Henry himself.

(Idea- what if Gabe kills Henry but Alex doesn't realize it and tries to kill Henry still?)

"I made a mistake ever getting involved with him. So I rectified the mistake." He angled his head, sneering.

(Ooh that would be interesting)

"You sent him away to die!" Gabe pulled Henry down, glaring down at him. "That's not rectifying a mistake, that's murder," Gabe spat.

(Yeee let's do it)

Henry raised an eyebrow. "I didn't send him away. My father did." He replied.

"And I wonder why the fuck he did it," Gabe sneered. He shoved Henry away.
"Get out of my sight, before I kill you."

Henry snorted. "He did because it was disgusting and sinful." He replied, looking down at Gabe.

Gabe snarled. He grabbed Henry again, pulling him close. Unfortunately for Henry, he'd slipped his knife out of his pocket.
"So is this," he whispered into Henry's ear, the knife sliding into his stomach. "And when you find Alex was right, you'd best keep the fuck away from him." He twisted the knife a little.

Alex was trembling, his eyes dark and his hands clenched. He didn't want to hurt anyone, and so most of his concentration was on that, not on Henry and Gabe.

Henry's eyes went wide, and he coughed, stumbling a little. "You–" his breathing turned strained, and he reached out to Gabe, face twisted in fury and pain.

Gabe held Henry in place, not letting Alex see what he had done.
"If God does truly exist, may he find it pleasing to see you burning in the pits of hell for eternity." He dug the knife deeper, not seeing how Alex was acting.

Henry coughed, hands clawing at Gabe as his eyes glared daggers at the other man. Alex bit his lip when he saw what Henry was doing, and took a step forward.

Gabe did his best to keep from getting hurt, letting out a small sound when Henry scratched his face. He moved, pushing Henry away and pulling the knife out.
