Comfort
In the original book, I went with comfort because I wanted to make it somewhat antistein and so will I here but after I finish this book I'll make a version where he will just leave him.

Henrik walked into the room quietly shutting the door behind him and slowly made his way over to the demon. Anti who was currently curled up against the wall hadn't even noticed the doctor come in, let alone that he even heard the knock on the door.
Henrik quietly sat down next to him and reached his hand out and put it on his back in an attempt of comfort but Anti flinched away out of surprise not expecting the doctor to be there. He quickly looked away again closing his eyes as the doctor started stroking his back to calm him down. When Anti calmed down a bit Henrik decided to speak up
"Vhat happened down zhere?"
"I-I don't know .. "
" Anti .. pleaze tell me "
"I-I really don't know what happened .. I was just up in this room until I heard a crash downstairs I went to check it out a-and .. then he just said it was all my fault .. b-but I swear I didn't do anything .. I-I was getting everything set up to paint..I wasn't even downstairs when it happened .. "Anti tried his best to keep his breathing under control as he tried to explain everything that happened. Henrik scooted a little closer to him and slowly brought his arms around him embracing him in a comforting hug. "It'z alvright .. I believe you"
Those words were more than enough to cheer Anti up a little, at least one person believed him. He returned Henrik's hug and laid his head on his shoulder. Henrik held the demon close to him, whispering soothing words to him some being in german but it's not like Anti was really paying attention to it because after about 10 minutes his breathing started to slow down and he had shuffled into a more comfortable position. Henrik noticed this and gently picked him up trying not to wake him up meanwhile he carried him to the bed. He laid Anti down and just as he started to put the covers on him he stirred awake.
"Please stay .." he sleepily asked and to be honest Henrik just can't get his mind to refuse the request so he sat down on the bed as well and stayed. Anti had fallen back asleep but now his head was on his chest. He looked down at Anti sleeping peacefully in his arms and covered him with the covers.
"Wer hätte twee dass dies passieren würde .."
(Who would have thought this would happen)
After a couple of minutes, Henrik himself also drifted off to sleep. Downstairs everyone else (only Chase, Jackie and Marvin ) had piled themselves up on the couch watching a movie together although all of them had already fallen asleep before the movie even ended.

The next morning Jameson woke up as the sunlight was shining right into his face because he forgot to close his curtains last night. He got up and got dressed. He didn't get to say goodnight to the others any more last night because he fell asleep listening to music. When he went downstairs he expected to get slightly scolded at for not coming back down to say goodnight but everyone was still asleep on the couch .. well everyone except Henrik and .. Anti.
He didn't like thinking about Anti too much, he still feared him and all the times he would control him like a puppet on strings and the nightmares .. just the thought of it made his hairs stand on end. He threw the thoughts away and decided to check if Henrik was in his office, he'd probably fallen asleep there overworking again. But when he opened the door there was no overworking doctor that had fallen asleep at his desk. He thought maybe he did go up to his room but then again Henrik is always the first one to be awake. Jameson decided he should check if Henrik was in his room so he went upstairs to check but the door to his room was open and there was no one inside. Strange he thought, this is very unusual. He looked at the end of the hallway .. Could it be? He pushed his fears down and walked to the last door of the hallway, being polite he first knocked. When receiving no response he opened the door and poked his head inside. He couldn't believe what he saw, rubbing his eyes to make sure he saw right but the sight before him still didn't change. He pinched himself to make sure it's not some silly dream but it wasn't. This was real. Before him there was Henrik with Anti in his arms, both of them sleeping soundly. As confused as he was he does have to admit .. they did look cute together. He silently closed the door again and walked back downstairs making himself some tea in the kitchen, meanwhile thinking about what he witnessed upstairs. He did know that Henrik had a crush on Anti at some point but he thought that was long over by now after everything that happened. Still, I promised back then that I wouldn't tell anyone,
"Morning bro" his thoughts were interrupted by Chase walking into the kitchen, Jameson signed good morning back and asked if Marvin and Jackie were already awake
"Yeah bro I woke them up by accident when I tried to get up. They should be here soon dude. "
Jameson nodded
" Where's the doctor dude though he is still asleep? " Jameson nodded
"Weird usually he's the first one up and about"
"Morning everyone" Marvin walked into the kitchen as Jameson made a small wave towards him and signed to Chase that he's going to wake Henrik up. He passed by Jackie on his way upstairs. Once there he walked into the room and went over to the bed, he lightly shook Henrik to get him to get up but he didn't get any response. Would've been easier if I could actually talk he thought. He shook Henrik somewhat harder and Henrik grunted in response slightly opening his eyes. Jameson signed that everyone else is already awake and that he should probably get up as well. He just nodded, with a light blush creeping onto his face as he looked down at the sleeping figure. Jameson left the room closing the door behind him to give them their space and time to get up. When he walked downstairs he could hear the others talking about kicking Anti out. Even Chase who suggested it and defended Anti in the first place, why are they even talking about kicking him out he didn't do anything wrong right? Jameson just sat down trying to ignore the conversation as he didn't want to think about it but they just kept going on about it. After a while, Jameson had enough as he slammed his fist down on the table signing "If you're going to talk bullshit about Anti, go do it somewhere else instead of ruining my morning"
They all turned towards me in shock at my outburst. Jackie huffed, standing up and leaving the kitchen and soon Marvin followed. Chase didn't move from his seat simply looking down at his plate. The silence became too awkward to handle so Jameson stood up from his seat and headed to the living, looking over at the stairs he could see Anti standing there, he had heard everything they said about him .. At the sight of Jameson he turned away making his way back upstairs but Jameson followed behind him trying to stop him. He was able to grab Anti's arm in the process making Anti turn around looking Jameson straight in the eyes. Staring at him with eyes that were once green now a dull grey, you could clearly see the pain in those eyes. "Please leave me alone Jameson" He said in a monotone voice with a blank expression on his face. He pulled his arm out of Jameson's grasp and walked into his room. Henrik who was still in there has just finished making up the bed when Anti walked towards him not facing him
"Please get out .."
"Vhat?"
"I said .. G̳͓̫͕̫̹̤E͔̣͉̜͟T͍̫̟̯ ̡̣̹̩̗̞O̹̦̮̳U̮͘T͓̫̫͞" He suddenly started heavily glitching, Henrik's breathing picking up with fear he quickly backed up out of the room as the door suddenly slammed shut.
Jameson and Henrik were both left in the hallway, mildly confused and scared of what just happened. Inside the room, Anti's glitching ceased as soon as it came and he dropped down on his knees looking down at the floor, thoughts overwhelming him.
