5. Dealing with inner relations

(Back for more angst? I'm surprised! I mean good luck! (」°ロ°)」)

Silver had just got done eating the food Espio had left for him, he decided that it was time to get to the bottom of what happened between Espio and Rouge yesterday evening.

Silver was wearing some grey sweatpants and an over sized shirt that had belonged to Shadow like a year ago before he gave it Silver because he couldn't fit it anymore. Silver admired himself in the mirror and just smiled to himself with a big goofy grin, 'I look good~ I hope that I didn't go too overboard..' Silver grabbed his keys and walked out the door and made his way over to Espio's apartment.

Espio's POV

It was early in the morning around like eleven, I had just gotten out the shower and was getting dressed. I decided to dress in black jeans and I white button up shirt, to me it isn't anything fancy so I didn't see the issue. Not long after I heard a knock at my door and questioned on who could it be, I walked over to the door and opened it.

"Silver?"

"We can talk now... I'm ready to hear what you have to say."

"Ok."

I stepped aside to let Silver in, my heart was pounding out of nervousness and I didn't even know what to say. The fact that he even came over makes this even more nerve racking I don't know where to start...

"So, what exactly happened yesterday evening?" Silver asked as he sat down on the couch.

"Well so I wanted to talk to someone about what happened between us in the meeting room two days ago, and I decided to go to Rouge and ask for help." I fiddled with my hands and continued on, "then she was willing to help but then she sat on my lap and then started swaying her hips, I didn't feel like it was right but I had grown an erection from it and it was starting to get uncomfortable. She noticed and asked to help me out and I didn't want her to but I had no choice, I didn't want to walk around in discomfort. I'm sorry Silver, I know that a sorry doesn't help but I really wanted to understand how I feel about you before we went any further."

My head was down and I felt tears pouring down my face, I didn't want to cry but it's all I could do right then and there. I felt horrible and I wouldn't want to repeat what had happened, I still don't know what I felt for Silver but I know something about him makes me want to be around him.

"Espio..." I looked up and saw that Silver was now in front of me and placed a hand on my cheek and on around my waist. "I'm sorry for getting upset about this, if I would've just asked you what happened earlier we wouldn't be here right now." Silver said as he leaned his forehead against my own, I blushed slightly then just closed my eyes enjoying this moment for however long.

"Silver, if I could tell you how I felt I could."

"I know."

"And I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry too Espio."

Then the gap between us closed and we were kissing again, I wrapped my arms around Silver's neck brushing his quills in the process, he bit my bottom lip as of asking for entrance and I accepted. Our tongues danced inside each others mouth for a good few minutes and Silver pushed me down on the couch so that he was on top of me and sitting on my lap.

The more the kiss deepened the more I felt the whole world slow down, we pulled away from each other and only Saliva connected us. "I'll wait for you Espio, no matter how long it takes." I smiled and nodded my head as a stared at Silvers yellow eyes, I feel safe with this man and I don't even know how I feel about him... pathetic... straight up pathetic. 'How can I not know how I feel about someone when I know he makes me feel safe, he doesn't do any harm he doesn't tear me down, and he's more than respectful to anyone and everyone... what's wrong with me?' I stared at Silver and pulled him down for another kiss, he looked surprised but then melted into the action.
