DAY 09

It was the ninth day of the quarantine, and let me tell you, Eden was a mess, and Declan, well, was too scared to face the elder; he feared rejection, yet not knowing the answer was eating him alive. The two busied themselves, trying to avoid the tension that shrouded them and the solemn question that needed an answer swaying in the air. 

Both the elder and the younger sat on the couch, an arm's length apart, which neither favored. Declan sighed as he side-eyed the older who focused his full attention on the movie before he focused back his attention on the movie.

Neither of them realized that they moved closer to each other; until Eden had his back resting against the younger broad buff, chest, whose arms wrapped protectively around the other's waist.

Eden's breath quickened once he realized their position, his heart started beating out of his chest and a red hue spread across his chubby cheeks, he ducked his head down trying to cover his red face when he realized that the other was looking at him. 

At first, Declan was confused but when he saw their position and the pretty red that adorned the elder's cheeks he couldn't help the wide smirk that appeared on his lips and the smug expression that was planted on his face, seeing the other like this gave him hope, hope that just maybe the elder felt the same way he does. hope the elder felt the butterflies and his heart would skip beats just like he does. 

He inhaled deeply when his eyes met the pretty wide eyes of the smaller male, gosh he just wanted to kiss the male breathe less, he wanted the elder so bad that it hurts, he wants his whole. both males inch closer to each other unconsciously looking down at each other's lips before they made back eye contact now they both knew where this was going.

Declan halted, their lips merely one inch away from one another, one wrong move, and it was over, Declan looked right into Eden's eyes breathes brushing against each other's lips showing the elder that if he wanted this he would have to make the first move.

Eden was more than a little anxious and the younger, this close to him isn't helping one bit he could feel his heart pounding out of his chest and his body temperature starting to rise, it was now or never. he knew if he didn't kiss the younger he might take it as a sign of rejection which he did not want because he was so into this male that it hurt his brain and poor little heart. 

With his mind made up, Eden went in for the kill, with one final eye contact their lips connected in a luscious kiss, it was soft and passionate, and endearing pants could be heard around the room as Declan pushed Eden down onto the couch kissing the living hell out of the male but oxygen is a bitch, they broke the kiss eyes staring unfocusing on each other. "I hope that kiss wasn't because of the heat of the moment," Declan whispered against the male's lips as he caressed his soft cheeks. 

"Because if it was, I don't think I could take it" the younger whispered.

"I don't think I could either," Eden whispered back a little flustered, and Declan was confused, his face was drawn up into an attractive frown, eyebrows creasing together. "What do you mean" He breathed out.

"I-I I want you" the elder confessed his voice wavering and his cheeks dust a light shade of pink. a sigh of relief escaped Declan's lips as he chuckled lightly as he pulled the male back into a deep kiss, he circled his hands around the male's waist while the other did the same to his neck. eden ran his fingers through the male's hair as tiny sounds of pleasure escaped his lips.

"Gosh, I can't get enough of you" Declan whispered between kisses, smooching sounds could be heard all around the room as the two kissed each other to their heart's content. "Will you be my boyfriend?" Declan asked after breaking the kiss while admiring a breathless Eden who nodded.  "Y-yes" Eden whispered before diving back to his favorite treat. 

And that's how the new couple spent the rest of the night, kissing, cuddling, and a few hickeys here and there.
