What I'd Give to See Through You

Healing

Saturday 27, September
POV: Jaden

Jaden: -I woke up today, took a deep breath and noticed something. Today, something -I don't really know exactly what it is- feels... easy. It felt like a miracle, automatically the morning turned nice. Aeson was right in front of me, looking sweet like candy. Most of the times, I wake up before him, and sometimes I think life is trying to tell me that some things are still worth it whenever I do. I love watching his beautiful, black messy hair over his face. His eyelashes look so long when his eyes are closed. His lips are always parted too. He's just so pleasant to stare at. He comforts me by just being beside me. I can feel his calm breathing and I can't avoid a smile. He looks so peaceful, resting. It's almost as if I could feel his peace roaming through me. These days have really been a fucking mess, but since I had that conversation with Avy, everything feels at least a small tad bit... easier. I'm thankful for it. And for Aeson. As he said, he's right here. He's right here for me.
He started moving, I was waiting for him to wake up now, but contrary to what I thought, he just moved one of his hands from under his face to put it on my back, holding me. If I'm allowed to be very honest, I feel like crying but because of how beautiful and soft that was. I'm thankful for being here to live it. Aeson took a deep breath, now he actually woke up.-

Aeson: good morning. -he said with a hoarse voice, rubbing softly his eyes with the hand he has remaining under his head and opening them softly. But he didn't move a centimeter.-

Jaden: good morning. -I said in a very low tone of voice. We were face to face, looking at each other, it would be very easy for me to get used to waking up like this everyday.-

Aeson: how are you? -he asked, now caressing my back.-

Jaden: I'm feeling ok. -I gave him a little smile. Maybe someday I'll wake up and it'll be normal again to say "I'm fine."- and you?

Aeson: that's great, I'm feeling great. -he said looking all my face carefully, like gathering all details.- I don't know if I've ever told you this, but you look so beautiful. -he says and it makes me want to kiss him.-

Jaden: you do too. Thank you. -I doubted if I should kiss him without asking. Just by the thought of his lips pressuring mine the way only he knows, and making me feel the way he knows I feel my heart beat harder. I want to do it so much. He's right here, looking at my lips. I'm pretty sure he also wants to kiss me. I started getting closer to him, and closing my eyes to finally kiss him. It was a soft kiss, full of tenderness and... love, making me smile rapidly in the middle of the kiss and continue kissing him. We kept giving each other short pecks and smiling. This is awfully romantic.-

Aeson: thank you for that. -he said after we both stopped and opened our eyes. His smile was radiant.-

Jaden: nothing to thank. -I rubbed his cheek.- I was missing your kisses. -I started playing with his hair, passing my fingers through his strands.-

Aeson: we kissed yesterday at night. -he smiled, looking at me with a deep, soft gaze.-

Jaden: I know, but it was a whole night's sleep without them so I missed them. -I say, smiling too, he laughs softly. I heard knocks on the door right after.-

Jaden: coming! -I went to open the door, realizing then that Aeson's here. Well I can think of an excuse, it doesn't matter, I'll just be natural. Natural natural natural.- hey. -I opened. Oh. The girls are here. Is it that late?-

Avy: hey, good morning! Let's go eat breakfast, but first, do you know where's Aeson? I knocked at his room but he didn't open. -she talked very fast. I opened more the door so they can see Aeson sitting on my bed. He smiles at them, standing.-
