Just seeing Daisy all curled up and scared like that was a different experience for me, at that moment all I wanted to do was hug him, cuddle him and comfort him until he fell asleep in my arms. I don't know why but that was when he just clicked for me, I always had little feelings for him but this was way more than anything I've ever felt towards him, for a matter of fact. Towards anyone.
"You alright there Daisy?" I said In a worried voice
"Y-yea I think so," he said sheepishly, clearly not alright
"Awwwh look at Jamie all worried about Daisy, ya fancy him?" said Captain teasingly. I
Glanced at him giving him a look of annoyance and fury.
"What! No why would I!" I said quickly trying to dismiss the situationI looked back at Daisy and I could see that he was visibly upset about what I said moments ago, once we got into a stable orbit I took him into the crew cabins for a little word.
"Hey, Daisy are you ok?" I said worried and anxious.
"Yea I'm fine," he said also most of the break of tears.
Even though he was keeping it together very well, I could still tell he was not ok and I was upset by this fact, I glanced at him with a sympathetic look and that's when he broke, he started crying and motioned me to come closer.
"Awh c'mere, your safe with me," I said with the sweetest, calmest and softest voice I could put on. It broke my heart to see him like this and all he did was just hug me, and to be completely honest, I was starting to cry as well. We stayed like that for a few moments before Daisy broke the sounds of him sobbing and said "This is gonna sound weird and I'm sorry if it makes you uncomfortable but...I really like you and I think you're the sweetest, kindest and just an all-around good person"
In that instant, my heart just melted and I started to cry as well.
"Now that you mention it I have kinda been having a slight crush on you for a while now and it's just been smouldering for ages now," I said pretty excited about the fact that I was not alone in my little gay fiasco.I couldn't have my little moment for long though because a sound come from the intercom just 10 minutes after that said "Everyone gets into your suits and into your respective places". Luckily Daisy and I are both in the same field of work doing communications, and we are in a pretty secluded part of the ship where not much activity is present so me and Daisy could hand little notes while doing our jobs. After what felt like 2 hours of constant talking back and forth between ISSAFO ground staff and Captain Barns, just trying to get the supply rockets to dock onto our vessel, We finally were allowed a break and Daisy and I went back to his dorm.
By this time it was also night, with it being around 8:00 pm we started getting ready for bed and this is when Daisy said "Hey umm this may seem awkward but, would you like to sleep in my bed with me tonight? I kinda need someone to cuddle to you know?"
Now that was a very important decision for me and could mean that I get cuddles all night or I sleep cold and alone in bed. So I chose the only option that was appealing to me which was cuddles. There is something you have to know about me, I love cuddles and I would never pass them up, to be honest, I think Daisy knew this already because he looked at me with this cute and very energetic smile, so I instantly said yes and we both get into bed and started cuddling, He was very hesitant at first but after a few minutes and him realising that I liked this, he started to get a little more touchy, he would regularly nuzzle into my chest and even just lay on top of me, but after a while, we both got comfortable and went to sleep.When I woke up I found out that Daisy was still asleep and to not wake him I just sat there gently stroking his hair, It was so soft and fluffy it was like a dream, his curly, thick blond hair was like a trap and I had fallen in it!. I stayed like that for about 15 minutes until he woke up. And I just have to say, his wake-up yawn is so adorable, he woke up and blinked his beautiful grey eyes then looked at me blushed and without hesitation just kissed my forehead and yawned with the cutest noise at the end.
"Morning sleeping beauty," I said softly
"Good more-" Daisy stopped his sentence and realised what he had just done and covered his face with his hands and said "I am so sorry for kissing you! I was not all the way awake! I am so so sorry!"
"It's ok and to be completely honest, I enjoyed it! It was very cute that your first instinct was to kiss your lover!" I said while bringing him closer to hug him
"L-lover? Are we together?" Daisy said very confused and embarrassed
"That's your call, Daisy, I don't mind if we are together because I really like you," I said with a smile thinking about us being together and how much fun we would have back on Earth.
"Well then we are together starting from now," he said with a grin signalling that we are together
After this, the next few days were just us doing our job, occasionally kissing and cuddling at night. I must say, those were the best days of my life, New love it the best love.
