He wasn’t sure when things had changed between him and The young Teenager Boy..Jesse Ryan his Nickname is ..JR— the two had spent so much time together.. maybe— if he thought back.. it was when he nursed him back to health a small moment of such gentleness.. the way JR's soft hand had brushed against his cheek.. His ...soft voice whispering to him, words he would never forget.

”you’ll be ok.. I promise I won’t leave you”.

Those words stuck especially when he stuck by him and without him really ever noticing he had become slightly protective. Any man even looked at him..funny he made sure they were dealt with— but.. what was completely out of his control?

JR's.. health.

After leaving Australia with millions the two of Them.. got comfortable he even met JR's Family— they seemed nice.. though when he comes back after grocery shopping with JR..curled up on the couch with red eyes and tears rolling down his ..cheeks. All those overprotective instincts kicked in— within seconds he’s by JRs side.

“What’s wrong? JR.. Are you hurt?”

He asks his Blue eyes practically piercing into JR's.
