The Model's Assistant

The Models Assistant Ch.17

The morning after the fashion show, Kevin decided to sleep in. He didn't have class and he had quit his job so he used that to get much needed rest. He rolled over and his hand landed on the body next to him. Wait..body? Kevin's eyes slowly opened and immediately his face blushed scarlet.

Right there, nearly nose to nose, slept Edd. He looked so peaceful and calm but that didn't explain what was happening. Why were they in the same bed? Where were they? He groaned softly as he slowly moved to sit up. His head was pounding and his vision was hazy. Damn, whatever he drank last night really hit him good. He felt nauseous as he got on his feet and stumbled over to the bathroom.

'Don't throw up, don't fucking throw up,' the red hair told himself as he closed the behind him. He stumbled over to the sink, turning on the cold water and splashing his face a few times. 'Ok, think. What the hell happened last night? I'm still dressed so that's a good sign. But why are we still in the hotel?' he thought, splashing his face a few more times before looking in the mirror. 'I love you Kevin,' the boys voice echoed in his mind. He smiled softly at that but then another round of nausea hit. He quickly scrambled to toilet and thankfully made it right as he heaved into the bowl.

Meanwhile in the room, the brunette stirred in bed. His eyes slowly opened and he noticed the bed was empty. He sat up, stretching and looking around. 'Oh my, it's already so late in the day,' he thought when he saw the time. He never slept in, but somehow he felt refreshed. He looked around around again and then heard a noise coming from the bathroom. "Kevin?" he called out, seeing the door was closed. He got out of bed and walked over to the door, knocking softly. "Kevin?" he called again when he didn't get a response the first time.

Kevin couldn't hear Edd over the sound of him throwing up. He couldn't remember the last time he got like this after drinking. He usually had a high tolerance to alcohol. He tired to catch is breath, letting the nausea pass when he felt a hand on his back. He jumped and looked back to see a very concerned brunette starring back at him. "Are you alright? Can I get you some water? Or maybe some tea?" Edd asked softly as he rubbed the red heads back gently.

"Water would be great actually. I'm sorry if I woke you," Kevin answered as he tried to breath again. "You didn't, I don't usually sleep in this late. My body woke up on it's own," Edd smiled softly as he went to grab a glass back in the room. He noticed they didn't have ice, "I'm going to grab some ice, try not to move so suddenly and if you can, try taking a cold shower. That should help," he called out as he grabbed the room key from the nightstand. Kevin only nodded as he heard the door open then close. 'A shower does sound nice,' he thought.

~In the Hotel hallway~

Edd walked down the halls looking for an ice machine. He tried to remember small things to get him back, but this place was huge. He bit his lip nervously until he saw the sign he was looking for. He followed the arrow and soon came to the small room with vending machines and the ice machine. He thought of getting Kevin some crackers but then remembered he didn't take his wallet. He frowned slightly. "What's the matter?" he heard a familiar voice coming from behind. He turned to see, "A-Adam?" he spoke nervously. He didn't know the eldest brother, but remembered seeing after leaving the Brooks Estate.

"Relax, I just wanted to make sure you two were ok. Especially your friend, he did drink quite a bit from me last night," Adam spoke, genuine concern in his tone.

"He woke up not feeling well. I'm just getting him some ice. Why...why are you here?" the brunette answered but then questioned.

"I came to make sure my idiot brother didn't take things further than he already had. He saw you and Kevin get a room, he was about to too. But I made a call and he left in fit. He's an ass and tends to go too far because of our family name. You didn't deserve to go through this, but he won't listen to anyone, let alone me," The man spoke as he paid for some pain killers from the vending machine. He handed them to Edd, who took them with a small nod of thanks. "I also came to get laid but that's a different matter. It was going to be your friend before I knew he was taken. I'll back off on hitting on him, but let him know my offer still stands in my buisness. He would be a good fit, and I can bring you on board too. If you are interested," he then added before walking out of the room.

Edd stood there, blushing slightly at the second part that the raven haired man spoke of. He looked at the pain killers in his hand and that seemed to snap him back to reality. He filled the ice bucket he was clutching and rushed back to Kevin. 'Offer?' he questioned on the way back.

~Back in the room~

Kevin had opted on an ice bath rather than a shower. He was used to those, what with playing football, and his body relaxed under the cold water. He hadn't heard when Edd came back. He had pulled the plug and stood to get out.

"Kevin are you feeling better? I got ice and pain killers for if you have a head...ache," the brunette spoke as he walked back into the room and then into the bathroom. He froze just inside the doorway when he saw the red head still naked and in the tub. Kevin froze completely, eyes locked with the brunettes. Both their faces red.

"I...M-My apologies. I should have knocked," Edd spoke quickly as he placed the pills and the cup of ice on the sink before running out the door.

Kevin stayed standing in the tub. His face to his chest beet red. That was the second time Edd had seen him naked now. It was still very much embarrassing for him, to both of them, it seemed. After a second more, he finally climbed out of the tub and wrapped a towel around his waist. He walked into the room and found Edd with his face buried in his pillow. He chuckled, "Wow, I'm that bad looking, huh?" he joked lightly.

"Do not dare speak that way!" Edd immediately shot back, coming out of hiding but face still red, especially when he saw Kevin in a towel. "Are you trying to give me a coronary?" he then added before hiding his face again.

Kevin laughed softly as he sat on the foot of the bed. "Sorry," he said, though he didn't know what that meant. He bit his lip softly as he thought of how to ask the next question. "Hey Edd, are you free today?" he asked first.

Edd simply nodded from his place on the pillow. Kevin got more nervous now. "Then um...would you like to go on a date today?"
