Yes! And the way they were both leaning into each other.. Michael was legitmately sawying into Alex' orbit. Michael running away from the intensity of his feelings for Alex makes so much sense.. he is overwhlemed by Alex, and he is scared of trusting what Alex is saying.. especially when Alex has left before,
again and again (not that Alex didn't have his reasons.. his own abuse plays heavily into why he runs from Michael)… oh my babies are just so battered and bruised
