Teddy's pov
I left my dreams to be welcomed by a beautiful sight. A certain someone who was in my dream just a moment ago, was now sleeping beside me holding me close to him in a most protective way possible. It somehow made me happy. I got up without waking him up. I was looking at his peaceful expression. He looked like a peace of art. My eyes were looking at muscle of his and I couldn't fight the urge to touch it. So without even noticing I started tracing the curves. "Good morning, beautiful." James said with a warm smile. It made me stiff like a thief whose been caught red handed. Because I knew I didn't have any rights to touch him, and that little peace of information made it worst. "I'll make us breakfast." I said quickly and tried to save myself from the mental pressure I was receiving constantly from myself. But he caught me quickly. Damn it he wants to talk about yesterday. I know we need to but I'm not ready yet. "Ted can I get avocado sandwich today or something related to it?" he asked making me calm a bit. "Sure" I said smilingly.
*After a while*
The breakfast was ready so I went to his room to call him to eat. But when I went in his room, he was done dressing up and all. those back muscle.... I...wanted to see them. He could've at least give me a pick. What am I thinking. "Want me strip for ya my lady...😉" How did he.... It's moment like this which confirms my theory that he has the mind reading ability. "Who addressing as 'your lady' huh?" I said quickly but voice didn't sound confident enough. Knowing he sure picked up on it. And his smirk face confirmed my theory. "Why you of course." he said and quickly changed the expression into a more serious one. "Can we talk over breakfast.... It's about yesterday.... Of course if you don't want to...I understand." he sounded mature like a guy I could rely on easily any day. I wanted to talk about it because he disserves it and I owe him a lot of explanation. So I replied with "of course." because I didn't knew what else to say and I didn't even tried to mask my feeling that were visible to him through my voice and my expression. I was nervous I was scared cause every time I declined his proposal this is the first time he has asked for explanation or wanted to talk about it. Because he knew it makes me awkward so he never talks about it afterwards. "Ted I'm sorry I know you hate this.... But.." "Don't worry about it" "First I need to talk about... You... Were crying yesterday Ted if you don't mind... Can you share the reason. What's going on did someone said something that hurt you... Is it me... Please tell me" he was sounding so concern and so scared for some reason. Maybe he was scared that he is the reason of my tears. That caused me more guilt. Who am I hurting? The guy who is applying medicine on my scratches, ignoring his dying wounds. "Ted..." "can we talk about it later and first can we talk about the other matters James? " "but that's not that important....please" "I was crying because....because I hurt you, didn't I? I am so sorry, James I didn't wanted to hurt you. I just wanted to... I'm not the perfect person for you. You deserve way better. Stop chasing after me. I would cause you nothing but pain." I didn't even realize when I started crying. "Calm down Ted calm down you are not causing me any trouble and the pain it's not you whose causing it. I am causing it to myself and you. I'm completely aware of that Ted but I'm sorry 'stop chasing you' that ain't happening. I love you a lot and I would never give up on my feelings." "but James..... " "Ted the kisses that I forced on you I'm sorry for that too." "but I... I liked the kisses" I whispered quietly. But soon realized it wasn't quiet enough. James geedy face gave me that information. "What did you say can you say it again" "James before that can I....?" without a warning I kissed him. He hesitant at first but than he gave in. He must be thinking why I did that. But seriously why did I do it. Maybe because those soft lips were calling for me they were making me thirsty. The first time I touched it with my lips it was like a reward to me. Every time I knew taking dose has it's own consequences but each time I wanted it more. I was kissing him desperately clinging to him like he is my last breath I can't afford to lose him. He was holding back restraining himself from loosing it. But I could feel the boundaries were breaking. And soon it was no longer there. He started giving the same energy if anything more. Who knows how many time passed before we decided to stop. "Ted...?"
