Mi Amor [JeffxBright] [Completed]

Jeff

Bright's recording had made me smile and I was thinking of the perfect comeback so that was just nice. I didn't hear from him for the rest of the night but the next morning, I woke up to a message from him.

He said he was going to see his dad and my house was on the way. He asked if we should meet for an hour just to discuss songs if I was free. I smiled as I replied him to come on over.

Around 12pm, Bright was at my place with some food and his guitar. I smiled and invited him in. We jammed, we discussed some themes, some songs, tried even writing a verse or two. Then we decided to separate for some creative control and he huddled up on my couch whilst I was in the balcony. We worked separately for about 2 hours before deciding to meet to share our work.

I went out to the hall and found him sleeping instead. I wanted to laugh out loud but held it in. I got a blanket and placed it over him as he slept. I finished up some song writing and sat down to play some games when he woke up.

"Shit. How long did I sleep for?! You should have woken me up. I'm sorry for sleeping here."

"It's cool na. You were tired. Slept well? It's almost dinner time. Why don't you stay for dinner?"

Bright sat up, looking at me and nodded. We decided to order dinner. I got him a towel and tossed him a change of clothes and that.

"Shower and get comfortable ok?"

"Thank you Phi." He muttered softly and went to the room. He came out a little while later, drying his hair. The food had arrived and I was busy laying it out.

"Hey, where is the laundry basket?"

"Just dump it in the machine yea. And come eat. The food is piping hot."

Dinner was a quiet affair as we tucked into our food hungrily. Towards the tail end of dinner, I looked at him.

"Why don't you stay over? It's late already."

"It's ok. I go back. I just collect the clothes tomorrow if its ok?"

"Just stay here Bright. It be fine. The clothes be done by tomorrow and you can take it home."

Bright looked at me and nodded his head quietly in agreement. I thought I was a quiet guy until I met him. He was even quieter and aloof than me. We decided to game abit once dinner was over.

Over games, I decided to casually make conversation with him. We chatted about a variety of things and then finally he asked me.

"Is it true you are really good at impersonating people?'

I chuckled loudly and agreed. He asked me for a few and I obliged by doing it for him. I decided to up it a bit by impersonating him too and finally, I saw Bright crack the first cheery smile of the day.

I laughed as his face blushed and he just played with his hair as a way of evading the embarrassment.

We continued chatting and gaming until it was time for bed. I offered him the guest room and made my way into mine.
Around 2am, I woke up to get a drink and then found him in the balcony.

His slightly gravelly voice floated, combining with the stillness of the night and creating a soothing hue to listen to. I stood by the balcony entrance watching him, completely mesmerised by him.

"Hey, you ok? How long have you been here? Sorry, did I wake you up?"

I stirred out of my reverie.

"Er, you didn't... I just...woke up for a drink.. your voice, it sounds amazing. It was so soothing to listen to."

I sputtered out without a 2nd thought. Only much later, when I saw Bright's face reddening, did my choice of words hit me. Shit, I sounded like some kind of obsessed fan.

I grimaced as I looked at him, embarrassed by myself. He just gave me a quick smile, thanking me for the compliment. He took his guitar, bade me goodnight and fled.

And me, I stood there like an idiot, over my stupid slip up.
