It takes days before the tension between Al and I subsides, and even after it does something is still not quite right. 

As if this wasn't enough to deal with, Roy is rushing me to move in with him. I told him it’s not a good idea with Al this upset and he said Al being upset is exactly why he’s in a hurry. I asked him what he meant by that and he begged me to just start staying with him. I’m eager to start my new life with Roy but I’m not just going to leave Al feeling the way he is now and I explained that to Roy.

By the time night rolls around the two most important people in my life are still kinda pissed at me and I have the headache from hell. 

When I get up the next morning I am relived to smell breakfast cooking. When Al is upset with me he stops his usual routine of cooking even though it’s something he enjoys. I make my way into the kitchen and start the coffee. When I sit down it’s not long before a plate is in front of me and I’m eating with my usual enthusiasm.

I’m trying to strike up a conversation with Al and for the first time in days he responds. I was in the midst of stuffing my face with the eggs and fried potatoes he had made when I feel a little woozy. I shake my head and try to continue eating but I can’t.

I can’t speak and I can barely move.

As I slide out of my seat and into the floor I catch a glimpse of Al’s smiling face and for the first time ever... I fear him.

Roy was right.

*hugs you* Ed is in more trouble at this moment than even he could imagine. Al's sanity has taken a holiday and he only has one thing on his mind...
