Yeah.

Also, it's not weird.

We're not blood related.

Exactly.

And we remember each other from our childhoods and all of that.

And I remember his beautiful brother, Jim.

who sadly passed away when he was 21.

And then Al lost his dad, Steve, just a couple of years ago, and I was there when Steve passed away.

And it was then in that moment when Steve passed that we decided that we were never going to leave each other's side.

Because what are we doing wasting this time?

We're going through all these relationships, all these boyfriends and girlfriends that we don't want to be with and we want to be together.

And yeah, and we decided from literally from that moment, we call it the hug.

There was a moment where just before Steve had passed away and I was sat with him and

And I walked out into the corridor of the house and Al just hugged me.

And we just didn't stop hugging for about 20 minutes.

We just held each other for 20 minutes, not saying anything.

And it was the first time I'd seen Al look so frightened and scared and alone.

And I just, I hugged him.

And then Steve died really shortly after that.

And so we're bonded by this kind of grief, but also this strength of kind of spirituality in a sense.
