The two had eventually managed to get into the rehearsal after the break, still no sign of Gardner. They apologized to the orchestra, who seemed rather annoyed with the unpredictable soloist duo, but the concert master sent them a death glare that shut everyone up. Brett had stabilized more and was fighting to keep his brain empty apart from the music during the rehearsal while Eddy couldn't help but move his eyes over to the audience seats every once in a while to make sure nobody was there, to make sure Chris wasn't there. The last half of the rehearsal passed slowly, and both the orchestra and the soloists felt they already had everything nailed for tomorrow's concert. A few minutes early, TwoSet and the concert master agreed everything was set and to end the rehearsal as the conductor hadn't showed up.

The two boys went to the wardrobe, both mentally exhausted. They went to put their violins into their cases in silence, but the need for physical contact was intense. Brett finished packing first and stood up to wait for Eddy to be done too. He watched as his boyfriend wiped down his violin and undid his bow. He carefully closed his case and stood up as well, turning to look at Brett. Moments later they were hugging tightly, still no words having been exchanged. They didn't need any words to know what the other needed. Brett buried his face in the crook of Eddy's neck and let out a content sigh. Eddy kissed the top of his head and tried to bury the guilt still lurking in the back of his mind. The guilt for making Brett have a kind of panic attack earlier, for lying to him when they first got together, for being the cause of so many of Brett's problems. He wanted to make it better, to make up for it. He wanted to be a good point in Brett's life.

"I love you so much, Eddy. You know that, right?" Brett mumbled into his neck, still with his shorter arms tightly wrapped around Eddy's waist.
"I know, and I love you too. I promise to be better for you from now on." Brett didn't really understand his reply, except for the "I love you too"-part of course.
"I don't think you could be better for me, you're the best thing that has ever happened to me. Don't try to fix what's not broken", Brett replied and moved so he could look up at his taller boyfriend. "I want Eddy, not 'trying to be the perfect boyfriend'-guy."
Eddy couldn't help but smile at what he was told. Brett seemed to always know what to say to make him feel better.
"Can I at least take you out for coffee then, if I'm not allowed to br better for you? As a date, I mean?" Eddy asked, the feeling of guilt fading into the background. "I think I owe you a coffee with extra love in it."
Brett's cheeks turned a warm shade of pink as he thought about the heart he had asked to make in Eddy's coffee on their first "date".
"I'd love that", he replied and stretched up to kiss him.
