I Will Be Beautiful...For You (Manxman)

Chapter 9 : All Of The Stars

"You really enjoy this don't you?" He asks.

I smile and nod as I run a hand through his hair. He is laying down on the couch with his head on my lap. "These stories are fun to listen to," I tell him.

He chuckles lightly. "More like terrifying," I hear him mumble.

"If you don't like it, I could always just watch it on my phone with headphones," I suggest.

He shakes his head. "I'm fine. Whatever you like, I like."

I roll my eyes and turn off the game station. "Let's do something else."

He hums, "Like what?"

I sigh. I have no idea. I'm just really bored. "I don't know. Sorry."

"There's no need to apologize." He caresses my cheek. "I know you don't wanna talk about this, but-" Oh no. Not this again. "-shouldn't we invite Kacy? He invited you to his wedding. Wouldn't it be courteous to invite him to ours?"
I shake my head. "He won't make it anyways. That asshole won't let him."
"Oh? Bad words?" He sits up and pulls me onto his lap. "I didn't know we could do that when we aren't playing video games," he says into my neck with a chuckle.
I laugh a little and push his face away. "Stop it! That tickles!"
He attacks me with tickles and the room fills with our laughter. It ends with us on the floor and him hovering over me. "Send him an invitation."
I look up at him, annoyed. He always does this to get his way. "Fine."
He smiles broadly then kisses me. His kisses stray from lips to my neck as his hands travel under my shirt.
I tense a bit and he stops.
He pulls back and looks down at me. "Sorry. I forgot for a minute," he mumbles.
I shake my head, "It's fine. I'm just not used to it. Go ahead."
He just looks at me with a sad smile then leans down and presses a soft kiss to my lips. "No, I can wait. I love you after all. Nothing can change that. You know that, right?"
I nod. "I love you too."
