Seven years, it's been seven years since you vanished into thin air like happened so many times before but this time you've been gone a lot longer than usual but now you're here, in front of Alexander who is sitting at the edge of his bed, a glass of whiskey in his hand, the bottle almost empty.

"Don't come" Alexander firm but broken voice echoed through the quiet bedroom, his hands gripped the bedsheet while looking away holding himself of jumping to your arms, the sight of your face would break him again.

he won't fall back for you again, he sick of his heart breaking every time the universe takes you away from his arms.

For you, it's only been ten days away from him, but the time between the dimensions works different, and for Alexander it's been five long, painful years.

"Please, if you come— I won't be able to stand it if you disappear again"

he look so old now and you're the same

The teacher is frustrated by the fact that you still look as young as you did 19 years ago, as if not a single day has passed while he looks older and older every time you comeback, Alexander passed a hand trough his messy hair letting out a shaky breath.

"Please, just let me forget you."

It was a plea, the plea of a broken man with a mind too weak to bear any more pain, Alexander pinched top of his nose in his hand, letting out an agitated sigh.

But Alexander knows he never managed to forget you, dammit, he wasn't even able to touch another person in all this 19 years since you two meet because his devotion for you was too strong.
