Semua Bab Fixation (Clusterf*ck Series #1): Bab 21 - Bab 30

Alcohol poisoning, the doctor said Hendry will recover but he needs to stay for an observation. Sloan was glad that last year Hendry had put him as his emergency contact. At that time Hendry joked that his parents were going to be too busy and that it was easier just to put Sloan's name on it. Sloan had spent the night by his hospital bed looking at the handsome man before him. His boss. The one person he'd managed to fall for and the guy almost killed himself for another man. Sloan was so screwed. When he found Hendry on his bathroom floor, he looked pale and was shivering. Hendry's hand was a bloody mess and he reeked of alcohol. Sloan was quick to call for an ambulance. Then, he spent hours panicking while he waited. His mom came to his rescue, she held him and comforted him. She even came back in the morning with Sloan's work clothes when he needed to go to the office. She stayed with Hendry assuring her son that Hendry was not going to wake up alone. That afternoon Hendry decid

"Hey boss, how are you feeling?" Sloan peeked into his room telling him that dinner was ready. "Ugh...the pills are making me sleepy." "Maybe it's because your body needs to heal." "Yeah, but right now I'm getting hungry." Hendry drank his water before grumpily getting out of bed and followed Sloan to the kitchen. "How's work?" "Meh, it'll still be there tomorrow." Sloan waived his hand to let the matter go, though he still told him about the meetings Sloan had rescheduled and gave Hendry details about the internal meetings that he takes notes for his boss to look at later. "And by later, I mean tomorrow though I still think that it'll be too soon for you to go to work." "I'm bored," Hendry complained. "I know, but I thought me being here was distraction enough for you." He winked and that finally got Hendry to smile. Sloan didn't tell him about Brody's visit, he was concerned that it'll trigger his drinking. He was going to wait until he talked to Brody before going through wit

Hendry didn't expect to blurt out his feelings for Sloan. Yes, it was overwhelming for him to say that he loves his assistant. But in a way he did. He felt the warm nagging feeling since the day he had dinner with Sloan's family. It was amazing to be easily out with the whole family. He had never experienced such freedom, and he was embracing it. Everything falls into place when both Sloan and his mom actually take care of him when he had alcohol poisoning, that was a first. He knew he drank too much, too fast, but he didn't think that he would get alcohol poisoning. He was ashamed at that and he felt like an ass for giving them the hassle of taking care of him, though Hendry secretly liked the attention. "Hey, where did you go just now?" He smiled as Sloan asked, snuggling and resting his hand on his chest. Sloan took a deep breath before leaning to rest his cheek on the pillow, inching closer to his side. "I'm thinking of introducing you to my mom," Hendry confessed. "Um, we me

"Okay we're ten minutes early," Sloan watched as Hendry looked at his Breitling watch only to be pleasantly surprised to see Brody was already seated on the table. "And looks like we're not the only one." He heard him say, Sloan could feel Hendry's hand on the small of his back as if he could feel the tension building inside him. Sloan relaxed a bit when he caressed him. "Come on, we're here, he saw us. Smile, Sloan...you're my boyfriend." Sloan heard him say as he leaned in closer, pressing his lips on Sloan's ear. He let Hendry talk when one of the restaurant staff ushered them to their table. Sloan followed behind him and watched as Hendry smiled at Brody who then got up from his seat and hugged him like nothing had happened between them. Sloan relaxed a bit seeing that Brody was instantly back in the friend zone with his boyfriend. Maybe it was the years they have as best friends, Sloan didn't give a care, what mattered the most was that they were back as friends. "How are you?

Hendry was quiet on their way back, and Sloan was feeling more and more agitated as they get closer to his place. The small little glimpse he stole of his boyfriend was not making him relax. There was a noticeable tension in Hendry's face from the moment the four of them ended dinner. "We need to talk." "Oh...okay," The moment they arrived, Hendry led him into his penthouse before giving Sloan some privacy to call his mom, telling her he was not coming home that night. "So, you and Callie?" He asked once they were both seated on the sofa. "Yeah, well we meet at a party, and had sex, with our masks on. I know...it's weird. We were young, so um...then, we talked and went our separate way without exchanging phone numbers. That's it." Sloan explained while Hendry draped an arm around his shoulder, tugging him closer to his side. Possessively. "You left the part where you two got hung up on the said one-night-stand, years later. Both of you basically recognized one another when you bo
