Dark Horses

Chapter 25 - Come here.

Back at the rooms, Sam was worn out. He was fast asleep. So were the others. The house was silent and really quiet. The sound of the waves gushed at the shore and it could be the only sound heard. Gulf thought deeply as he lay in his bed, the moments he had with Mew. He blushed with a tight-lipped smile. He brought his finger to his lips, biting his fingernail, thinking it all over again and again. 

"You can't run away from me." Mew pulled him back with his strong arms, his hands on Gulf's waist were firm. Gulf gasped suddenly as he was pulled back and brought suddenly to Mew's chest. Their sudden laugh had died and all there was, an intense moment of both looking down, trying to avoid the tension. Mew brushed his lips over Gulf's ear lobe, his breath blew some of Gulf's wet hair around his nape. 

Gulf shivered instantly, he slowly placed his hand on Mew's that were resting on his hips. Mew's fingernails digging into his skin, not harshly but protective. He looked away suppressing his sexual desire. He wanted to go forward, but he knew Mew needed time, more than he thought he knew. Gulf pushed his head back to the shoulder of Mew, while he closed his eyes and breathed deep. 

Mew entwined his arms around Gulf's waist, Gulf placed his hands on his. They closed their eyes, "Mew.." Gulf whined slowly. 

"Don't worry. I won't." Mew said softly in his ear. 

"So now what ?"

"We see the sunset together and I sing for you," Mew smirked. 

"You'll sing for me? Didn't know you sang, That's a first." Gulf chuckled. 

Mew hummed, he swayed them slowly swiftly, placing his chin on Gulf's shoulder, engulfing Gulf in his arms. They watched the sunset together in the calm sea. Mew sang melodiously in Gulf's ear softly, only for them to hear.

"When your legs don't work like they used to before.....
And I can't sweep you off of your feet...
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

Gulf smiled widely as he heard, he was surprised, he never knew Mew's voice was so beautiful. He looked at the sunset, This moment, he truly felt loved. He never felt this ever before. No one ever did this for him, nobody made him feel so special. He closed his eyes, to really feel this moment.

And, darling, I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And, baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well, me—I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am....."

Mew stopped, Gulf opened his eyes confused, "Mew?"

Mew turned Gulf around making him see face to face, Gulf confused as usual placed his hand on Mew's beating heart. Mew smiled as he took Gulf's other hand and entwined it, and his other on Gulf waist, swaying them in wallz dance slowly, he resumed singing.

"So, honey, nowww......"

"Take me into your loving arms...."

Gulf stared into Mew's eyes as he sang for him. Teary. Emotional.  He felt Mew's heart beating fast as he sang the heart-warming words. He smiled involuntarily. He was so in love.

"Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud....
Maybe we found love right where we are....."

After their personal moment, they walked back to their rooms hand in hand, Gulf felt stupid for smiling so wide all the time. But he was in love and that's all that mattered now. The boys headed to their rooms and Mew headed out after a shower and Gulf smiled involuntarily while he showered after Mew left and laid on the soft bed remembering every single detail.
