Summary
“God loves you, Alec.” Paul pressed down on his head with his hand, as though he was trying to make the blessing stronger.
He held his hand steady as more blood dripped off his fingers into the cup that stood under it. “How-How do you know He loves me?” he whispered, voice cracked and full of tears.
Paul didn’t pause whispering praise. It almost hurt to hear the words ring in his ears, the words that told him something so different from what he believed himself to be. From what the church had told him he was. Alec let out a wrangled sob when the vicar increased the pressure he was applying to his arm again, so more blood still would come out.
“God loves everyone. God forgives you for your sins. You’re giving your blood for His forgiveness.” He told Alec, before continuing the praise. He didn’t hear the exact words, his mind was blocking them out, it hurt too much.

OR: Alec and Paul have been lovers for two months and they're both sick of hiding. But telling people isn't a viable option either, according to Alec.
