Axel answered him honestly, "At the beginning, it was rather the opposite; as soon as he saw Erik, he found an excuse and left immediately. But Erik's perseverance ended up paying off, and Alan gradually let himself be seduced by him. He eventually got used to his presence, and after a while, he even came to see him training and cheer him on. I can't remember exactly when they first started dating, but after that, Alan became even more possessive and protective of him."
