Im not doing it rn
okay thats fine prongs
take ur time
love u guys
love u too
love u too
James curled up to Bartys side. He was in a new hoodie and it smelled of him and it was amazing. But he still felt like shit. He'd avoided therapy for years for a reason. Who would love him then? He's supposed to be strong and happy James Potter and how can he do that when he's going to therapy?
"Hey, sweetheart, whats wrong?" Barty said worriedly. James pulled up the chat and showed him. "Oh shit."
"Yeah. I can't fucking believe it. I don't really know what to do about it though." James hooked his leg around Bartys body and hugged him best he could laying on his side with Barty on his back.
"You know it's okay if you need it or just want it. It's not a bad thing, it helps a lot of people."
"But I can't be James Potter and need therapy, Bar."
"Yes you can. Anyone can need it. Including you, James Potter."
"You think so?"
"I know so. It's gonna be okay."
James lifted his head to look at Barty (he's so gorgeous omg.) "With you here I'll believe that." (And the way his cheeks turned pink!)
"You're so fucking sweet it makes me want to scream."
