In any other scenario, he would chuckle at the way Raleigh, tried to repeat the pronunciation of his own name with the Australian twang, but the situation was sitting heavy and ever so present.
Fuck. "What are you apologizing for?" he asks, making a face, damn, even when he has no memory, he's still a better at being a decent human being than Chuck ever was. "It's not your fault." he says, and finishes the statement in his head, ;it's mine.'
"Brothers?!" he says shook and surprise clearly evident in the way his outburst responds. "No, mate, not brothers, we're...close." he finishes lamely, but presses on to avoid anymore of those questions that would be overloading. He is saved by a nurse bustling in after seeing that Raleigh had regained consciousness, scolded Chuck for not getting her sooner and shooed him out of the immediate area, while she fussed over Raleigh.
He sighed as he flopped down in the chair on the far side of the room, rolling his eyes when she pulled the curtain around Raleigh's bed, 'pfft, as if he hadn't seen all of that before' and sat waiting while the many medical team members appeared from nowhere and disappeared around the curtain.
He didn't know how long he has been sitting there before he dozed off, knowing that his boyfriend wasn't dead, the rest they could work through, right?
