“Come on. Time for bed. Long day tomorrow.” Liam urged.
I was looking from the side of the blinds to the dark of Berlin. I was exhausted. the only light we could have were the lights from the street below. Which wasn’t much. I brushed my teeth. It was a bit hard to do since I use my right arm so I tried to use my left arm. I pretty much brushed my cheeks because of it slipping. Huffing, I turned around to the bedroom. Louis was on one side and Liam on the other. Me in the middle. Try and not make it awkward Jora…
“You’ll be safe. My gun’s under the pillow.” Liam said, letting me under the covers.
I smiled and sat up. When he got in, he kissed my forehead. A smile crept on my face and I layed down. Louis was laying on his right side. As soon as Liam’s head hit the pillow, he was out. Fast asleep. I situated myself between the two guys and found myself uncomfortable. The usual sleeping position was on my right side…well, shoot. Louis’ hand brushed my arm.
“Are you cold? You have goosebumps.” Louis whispered.
My eyes shot over to his face in the dark. I was. With no response, I turned onto my left side and curled up to him. His breathing slowed my heartbeat with how soothing it was. His hand reached my back and he ran his hand up and down.
“Do you love him?” Louis whispered.
What? Liam? I hadn’t really thought about it.
“Uhm, he’s really just a friend.”
We were talking so quietly. Before Louis spoke again, he checked Liam’s pulse on his neck. I’m surprised he didn’t flinch and wake up.
“I know we just met, and I didn’t plan on finding someone special on a mission ever in my life, but do you think we could give ‘us’ a go?” he asked.
“I don’t really know you that well. I mean, you seem to be a nice guy but it isn’t all just looks in a relationship.”
“Oh, I know. And I agree with you. The way you are just intrigues me.”
There was silence. A car passed by in the street. Louis shifted and layed me on the bed. He was hovering over me, face to face. I could feel his breath meet the top of my chest. I held my breath as he leaned in and kissed me. It got a bit sloppy here and there. His hand ran up my back. He was really putting me on edge. I ran my hand through his hair. His hand went down my back, around the front and he rested it on my hip bone.
“Mmm.” he moaned.
We stopped and he looked at me in the eyes.
“I can show you so much more if you’d give us a go.”
I could see a smirk appear on his face. I pushed him off playfully and layed my head on his chest.

“Jora, get up.” Liam said.
I woke up to Liam poking my cheek. Smiling, I opened my eyes. The sun had just peaked. Louis was already up.
“We’re headed to the cafe down the street for some breakfast then to go warmup at the range. Wear something comfortable.” He said.
I groaned and stretched. I wanted to sleep in some more. Liam hopped in the shower and Louis was nowhere in the room. I was left alone to the replay of last night in my head. It sent chills through me. Not of horror, but tease. Louis makes me bite my lip and stare. He’s extemely attractive. I thought about letting us give each other a try, but would it hurt Liam? Would it be awkward? Maybe Liam should speak up…but do I like him more than a friend? It’s not like, a life long commitment or anything. Forget it. Maybe I’ll give Louis a try. It’s my life, anyway.
