That night was strangely longer but, that was only for me though because, Damon was fast asleep just after I kissed him goodnight. I wasn't complaining. He needed that.
He was so exhausted that he didn't even stir when I pushed him off me so I could be an owl on my own.
"What are you doing over there by yourself?" I heard his husky sleeping voice from the bedroom door making my legs weak, heart racing, dick hard and asshole clenching.
"Are you sure you wanna know?" I asked him with a dry throat. Damn, the things he does to me.
"I didn't see you when I woke up, Love . What's with you tonight? Insomnia?" He asked walking towards me lazily with that sleepy handsome face of his, bare chest no hairs no tattoos and bare feet giving my house a thud sound with each step... HOT!
Was I always this horny?
"I wanted to surprise you with some heartfelt breakfast with hearts here and there... well, I guess my plans are spoiled now" I rambled on awkwardly with a nervous smile. I was already dangerously hard.
"For what's worth, I just escaped a heart attack when I didn't see you on the bed and it was an almost to die experience when I saw you behind the stove" Explained Damon after he pulled in his embrace making me whimper in a needy way, embarrassingly.
"Don't get used to it" I said pinching his chin only to make him look down at me before I tiptoed to kiss those sweet little sinful lips.
"All I know is that I'm honored" He said in his deep lustfully husky voice making all the more hot and bothered but, I couldn't be selfish.
"Go back to sleep, baby. You're not a robot Damon" I told him with a determined push away from me.
"Let's go back to bed then" He said returning to me hungrily.
"No. You need to sleep, Mister" I said firmly and then decided to take him to the bed myself since it was clear as day of how much of a stubborn man he was.
"Did something happen?" Asked Damon in the dead silence of the room after he layed down obediently.
"Why do you think that?" I asked tucking him in like how Monica used to do it to me and Antonia every single night.
"You're are getting soft on me. Are you leaving me?" He asked with naked fear in his eyes.
"Fuck you! I'm being earnest here...I'll wake you when it's time for you to wake up, okay?" I told him seriously before kissing the man's forehead.
"But...?" He started to protest before I could only interrupt his trail of thoughts with my very own killing glare.
"So, you're not going to sleep?" I threatened seriously.
"...I need to be at the office at eight" He gave in with a sigh before he closed his eyes.
"Got it! Sweet dreams" I said caressing his face lightly in a pattern.
Looking at the relaxed face of the man who pulled me up from a dark valley, a man that saved me from drowning in my stupid past, The man who gave warmth to my cold heart... But, he might never know that.
He was so tired that one could tell from how deep asleep he was just after some seconds after he layed down making my heart ache for him.
I didn't know if it was his family issues or just the stress from his transfer in the country but, whatever it was, it was making me want to try and spoil him more than I ever could.
I was working on cupcakes and biscuits after leaving him in the bedroom because, these dessert where the only dishes that I was told that they took more time to be prepared.
I couldn't believe that I was up since one in the morning doing this and that in the house while keeping in mind that I got some sleeping log in my bedroom, obviously till six in the morning, that's when I was done with everything giving me the motivation to take one long scented hot bath.
I got out of the bathroom later on, only to find Damon sitting disheveled on the bed but, he was seemingly refreshed after the second sleep.
"It's time to wake up now" I said the unnecessary making him hum in reply.
"Go and wash up, your clothes are on the rack and breakfast is ready and warm for you" I told him before going to sit on my dressing table after throwing my dump towel at him.
"It smells nice" He said after sniffing on it heartily.
"Even though it's a public information, I'll go on and act all touched and shits for you" I said shamelessly with a shrug making him laugh under his breath before he started to make the bed.
"Is work that stressful?" I asked my eyes on his reflection before me.
"I'm fine, Love" He replied with a small smile my way but, I could tell something wasn't okay with him.
"You're not fine Damon. I may act clueless most of the time but, you're loosing a lot of weight and getting paler by the day. Last night you even looked like a corpse, no offense" I scolded him with a stern voice.
"None taken but, are you worried about me?"He asked with his hopeful twinkling eyes my way.
"What do you think dummy?" I retorted with a question
"That patience always wins?" Replied with a question walking to where I was sitting making me turn to him.
"What does that mean?" I had to ask before I went with my routine.
"That you're starting to look at me like, really looking at me as a person and not just a stand in" He said gratefully.
"I never..." I started explaining only to have him interrupt me.
"I'm gonna take a shower" He said interrupting my beautiful thought speech making me curse him loudly without a pause in two minutes straight. How dare he?!.
I was already in my office wear, busy changing the channels on the TV in search of something more exciting to watch when Damon came out of the bedroom in the clothes I prepared for him.
"You're still here?" He asked in wonder.
"I'm starving" I said with a groan, standing up from the couch.
"But, we're going to be late if we do that now... though, I'm game if you are" He said Damon seriously loosing his tie on the neck.
"You are acting weird" I mumbled thoughtfully before walking to the kitchen so I could serve breakfast for us.
"We're doing it here?" Asked Damon with his flesh on my back groping on my body hungrily. That's when it hit me, He thought that I was starving for sex.
"Hold your hormones, Mister!" I said pushing him away with my butt. Wrong move. Because, the man was harder than diamond down there.
"I don't want to" He refused outright, holding me back to him.
"What's up with you this morning?" I asked after failing getting myself free from his hold.
"Horny and hungry. Really hungry" He said with emphasis on the word hungry.
"Well, we are not having morning sex today" I said firmly making his growl like a beast.
"That's really not fair!" He said embracing me tightly.
"Is it ever? So, are you gonna eat the actual food that I wasted my time cooking or I should just throw it in a dustbin so we could feed stray dogs?" I asked looking back at him with a no nonsense gaze.
"Thank you for the breakfast" He said, releasing me before he took it upon himself to prepare the kitchen counter so we could eat over there.
"Your welcome" I said before I started eating my food silently while dreading my up and fast coming working day in that awkward atmosphere I brought in the office.
What beats me more is that, my sexual orientation was my personal business though it wasn't private but, It wasn't a matter of 'Hey, my name is Anderson Sybil and I'm gay'... how did I stoop so low into outing myself to people who aren't even my friends?.
What did I want to prove to Regan?. Am I that insecure with myself that I had to step up and show them how proud I am to be myself?.
I'm an over-thinker by nature and even the smallest thing I ever did in my life always comes back to haunt me whenever and however, making me relive the feeling all anew and the rush of adrenaline of yesterday wasn't an exception.
Does straight people need to introduce themselves? Then, why did I? Their opinion of me didn't even matter so why did I feel so bitter after coming out?
Was it because it happened in the office during working hours? Was the guilt I was feeling due to my unprofessionalism behavior?
"What's wrong?" I heard Damon's worried tone making active in the present once again.
"Just feeling fabulous and all" I said finishing up my breakfast. I didn't even know that I was eating until I saw my plate clear before me.
"If you still don't want to go to the office today then don't force yourself. Give yourself some time to come to terms with what happened yesterday, okay?" Suggested Damon squeezing my hand with solidarity.
"I'm fine, Damon. Stop, babying me" I whined and he only smiled at me fondly.
"My baby" He called me lovingly.
"...Plus, I still got customers to meet today" I said getting back to my usual self.
"Whatever you want is what you get it with me" He said threading our fingers together.
"Such a sweet man for husband that I have" I cooed, receiving his kiss on my forehead before he went to put his dirty dishes in the sink.
"Glad you noticed 'coz bitch I'm a dazzle! I should write a book on 'how to become the perfect husband' with me as a living proof" He supported my comment shamelessly making me laugh so hard. That was so me!
"There it is... You look so much beautiful with a smile on your face" He said warmly making me feel all boom boom in my heart and tears brimming in my eyes from how deep he touched my soul.
"Thank you" I said after getting into his embrace that's when I saw his tie all wrong tied. It was more of a loop on his neck.
"So, we're going to leave together?" He asked me when I was busy fixing his tie.
"No way on earth! So, you could have your way on the road?" I replied sternly.
"Was my intention that transparent?" Damon said after one exaggerated defeated sigh.
"Honey, my eyes are gamma rays... Let's go before we are late" I told him after I was done with his tie. God, I love that role.
"Dishes..." He started only to make me seal his words with a kiss.
"That's a later problem plus, my husband is rich we can afford another set, and please remember to return with a dishwasher, don't wish for my nails to get crooked" I said dryly with a shrug before I took out my briefcase and coat, opening the apartment door in a hurry making it an almost bumping accident with Harry who chuckled at that.
"Morning Mr Sybil" He greeted with a smile.
"Morning to you too Harry... and goodbye" I said walking past him to the elevator. I was seriously running late.
