--= Lachlan's + POV =--
Staring the door down as Rob shut it behind him I turned to see Jerome smiling in the hallway.
"Hey."
"Hello Jerome....."
Jerome taking a small breath I locked eye contact with Jerome. A small smile tugging at his lips I smiled weakly back. Not wanting to make the awkward grinning one sided.
"One night stay buddy?"
......Wait I'm sorry what? Feeling my back straighten I looked Jerome in the eyes to see a kind sort of glow in them. Last night must've really cleared him up didn't it?
"Yeah, that was a good one night stay."
The grin on my face growing larger I took a few steps towards Jerome so we were an inch or so away. Jerome looking me in the eye, he leaned in.
Wrapping my arms around Jerome I rested my head on his chin as Jerome burrowed his face into my shoulder.
"Okay, if you need anything else, that doesn't involve tough love, try giving me a call mmkay? I like hanging out with you."
Laughing, I nodded my head before letting go of Jerome. Maybe Jerome didn't recognize Rob was gone?
"Oh yeah, umm.....Before I go. I just wanted to say, Rob is quite the silent type huh?"
Raising an eyebrow at the statement I detached myself from Jerome to look him in the eye. My hands resting on either of his shoulders.
"Rob? Oh hell yeah dude! I have to lock my door when I change so he doesn't come in."
A wave of uncertainty washing over me I looked at Jerome to see his expression lay thickened with guilt and uncomfort.
"Well, to change I kind of went inside his room by accident.....Thought it was a spare."
Snickering, I clicked my heel on the ground as I bowed my head before turning upwards and laughing in Jerome's face.
"Maybe next time try searching the whole room K Jerome?"
Jerome laughing a bit to himself, Jerome made his way down the stairs continuing to chat as he gathered everything he owned.
"Ohhhh I'll think about it!"
Jerome slipping his coat on I raised a hand, trying my best to look angry without laughing it was very much a struggle, yes.
"Yeah you better! Or else you will never see the end of Lil Ol' Lachy."
Jerome zipping up the jacket I watched as the excitement slipped away from Jerome's eyes and a new emotion gleamed in the corner of his face.
"That's fine, I don't want to see the end."
Warmth bubbly inside my stomach I waved as Jerome opened the door, walked through, and closed it. Leaving me alone in the house.
"I guess I'm alone again.."
Turning to face my bedroom door I shuffled away from the staircase, tensing as I heard a knock on the door. Glancing at the door slightly, I noticed a smaller figure then Jerome.....
Who the hell was that? Scaling down the staircase, I made my way to the door. Struggling to see who it was through the stained glass I gave up and just true opening the door instead.
Slowly opening the door, I let out a gasp to feel two arms lock around my chest as whoever it was burrowed their face into my neck.
"OI!!"
Stumbling from balance, I quickly regained my position before pulling the boy away from me......Only to see Vikk.
"Hi...."
