Alex's POV

"Seriously though Lex, you have to talk to that therapist about how you feel." Jack said since I told him what's going in inside my head.
"But they'll send me back there, I've been out of there for nearly 9 months, I don't want to go back Jack." I said and looked down and messed around with my cup of tea I had.
"Lex they won't send you back. You just have to talk about what's on your mind and they can help you." He said.
I looked at him.
"But I'm talking to you." I said quietly.
"Sometimes talking to me isn't enough Lex, you know this. Sometimes you just need that little bit more help." He said and kissed the side of my head since I was cuddled into his side.
"I love you." I said quietly.
"I love you too Lex. Just talk to someone." He said and started to mess with my hair.

"Uncle Lex?" Erin said as she wondered over to me and sat next to me on the floor.
"Yeah Ren." I said and looked at her as she sat on my lap.
"What wrong with your arm?" She asked and ran her hands down my scars.
"I'm have a poorly head." I said and Erin looked at me.
"Do you have a headache? You can take painkillers for that like mummy and daddy." She said.
I chuckled.
"No I don't have a headache. My head tells me things which aren't true and when I was younger I used to hurt myself which is why I have these scars." I said.
"Does you head still tell you lies?" She asked and looked at me.
"Sometimes. But I know that they're not true." I said and kissed the top of her head.
"Daddy has some scars on his arms. He says he had a problem with nasty stuff and that he nearly died because of it. Is that true Lex?" She said.
"Yeah its true. But you still have him and mummy and their not going anywhere." I said and hugged her.
"I'm going to draw you a picture." She said and got off my lap and went over to the art stuff she had round mine and Jacks since I normally looked after her on the Saturday when Eric and Callie was working.
I smiled and picked my guitar up.
"You going to play me a song Lex?" She asked from where she was sitting.
"If you want me too." I said.
"Yeah. Play me a song." She said.
I smiled and played the song she liked.

Jack had come home from work and was sat with Erin reading her a story since Eric and Callie had gone out for the evening so Erin was staying with me and Jack since Eli and Fred was also busy so being top uncles me and Jack agreed to look after her for the night.
"Jacky?" Erin yawned as she cuddled into his side.
"Yeah Ren." Jack said.
"Your cuddles are the best." She said and slowly fell asleep.
"I know right." Jack chuckled quietly.
I just watched them and smiled and thought about how good Jack would be as a parent and how shit I would be if I was a parent.
"Night on the sofa?" Jack asked quietly as he got up with a new sleeping Erin.
"Yeah, movies and cuddles." I said and smiled.
"Let me put her to bed and I'll be with you." Jack said and walked to our room and a few minutes later he came back minus Erin.

He sat on the sofa and looked at me since I was on the floor.
"Joining me?" He asked and I nodded and got up and cuddled into his side.
"Netflix?" I asked and Jack nodded and got Netflix up and we choose a film for us to watch.
I yawned loudly which made Jack chuckle.
"Leave me alone." I chuckled and playfully punched him.
"What time do you think she'll wake us up tomorrow?" Jack asked.
"Not too early I hope." I muttered.
" Roll over and let me cuddle you." Jack said I smiled and nodded.
"Did you take you meds?" He asked.
"Yeah otherwise I wouldn't be falling asleep." I said quietly with my eyes growing heavy.
"Just checking. I love you." Jack said quietly and kissed my cheek.
"I love you too." I mumbled and fell asleep.
