"Baby."
Erik holds onto Cobie tightly. They were in the Alpha's room, under the thick duvet. Cobie's head was on Erik's chest, his arms around Erik's body. It's a bit past three in the afternoon and thankfully, the sky had cleared and the sun was shining bright.
"I'm here."
"You died." Cobie said, tightening his grip on Erik.
You died, Erik almost said. He had held Cobie and searched for his heartbeat. Erik pressed a kiss to Cobie's hair. He had lost Cobie for minutes. He had held Cobie's lifeless body in his arms.
"I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere." Erik promised.
Cobie shifts back a little and raised his head a little so he could look at Erik, his eyes gold. "I love you. I love you. I love you." Cobie whispered. "You are my everything and I never want to lose you again."
