Assassin [dylmas]

55.

Four days later Dylan reched the front door of the clinic with only a little bit of Thomas' help. Mrs. Smith was waiting outside with Kaya and they greated him with long hugs. He walked into the car, and was suprised how much he felt every bump on the road but he clenched his teeths and squeezed Thomas' hand harder.

They reached the villa and found out that Mrs. Smith made a bedroom for them on the ground foor so Dylan won't need to climb the stairs. She even moved all their suff there and bought a brad new king size bed.

„Wow it's so pretty" whispered Thomas when he stepped inside and Dylan felt strange and embarrased.

„I probaly shouldn't stay here, I have a flat few streets from the campus," Dylan blushed.

„Oh sweety there's no way you're leaving from here I guess Thomas would beg you to stay," Mrs Smith raised her brow and her son became red like a little tomato.

„Thank you Mrs.," Dylan didn't know whst to say.

He could stay and move in with Thomas and his mom, it meant for the first time in his life he had a real family, one he loved and that loved him back and this thought made him dance inside. He secretly treated Mrs. Smith like a mother he had never had and Thomas was like a best friend a brother and a lover in one person and this was way too much.

„Let's leave them," Kaya smiled and walked out of the room with Mrs Smith.

„Do you like our little kingdom," asked Thomas but Dylan was speachless. „Hey don't start to cry I love you" Thomas walked to him and hugged him tightly.

He helped Dylan to get to the bed and undress his shoes as Dylan wasn't still able to leane in so much.

„I feel so bad about it," he whispered.

„Shh, now I can treat you like my little princess," Thomas smiled confidently. „If you would like help with undressing, shower and stuff, I can help you now," the blonde had a wide grin.

„Yore mind is so dirty," Dylan grabbed the boy's hips and pressed his lips to the blonde's belly through his shirt.

„Your's eqauly dirty," Thomas kissed the top of his head.

The loughed loud.

Later this evening they got a amazing dinner from Mrs. Smith, and she was so careful to prepare special meals for Dylan as he was on a strong diet. But the atmosphere was relaxed and happy, Kaya and her parents stayed over for longer, and Thomas Dylan and Kaya ended up watching a movie in the living room, the boys were in each other's arms, but soon Dylan felt tired and as every evening the pain became bigger so Thomas helped him to the bedroom and change into his pijamas. Soon Dylan fell asleep whith his head on Thomas' chest while the blonde's steady heartbeat was the prettiest lullabay.

Dylan was slepeing peacefully but suddenly a sream made him jump up on the bed. He needed some time to relize what was happening. Thomas was screaming like if someone tried to pull his skin off so Dylan started to shake to boy's shouledr till the blonde woke up and faced him with a sweat covered and pale face.

„Luke, Luke became you. .. there there was blood everywhere and I... I shot to you" Thomas glanced at his hands.

„It's a nightmare, It's ok I'm here" Dylan grabbed the skinny boy in his arms while Thomas was shivering madly.

„What happened" Mrs. Smith burst in their room, her hair was untied an messy and her face pale.

„He had a nightmare" Dylan rubbed Thomas' back.

„How can I help" Mrs. Smith looked around.

"Could you make some hot chocolate or something ee need to warm him up" asked Dylan and she nodded.

„Mum can you turn the light on" begged Thomas when she was right at the door.

She turned it on and hurried to the kitchen.

„It's ok cutie, I'm here for you" Dylan was caressing Thomas' back gently till he boy stopped to shiver.

„You won't be able to sleep with me" whispered Thomas looking up to his lover. „It happens every night since.. . since I... since I killed Luke" huge tears rolled down his face.

„I'm not leavig anywhere and even if you have it all your life I'm right here," Dylan lifted his face and kissed his tears.

„You can't love me that much" Thomas was so sad that it broke Dylan's heart.

„I do, come, your mum makes hot chocolate for us, you'll relax a little" Dylan got up wincing from pain  but he ignored it. Thomas hurried to him with a blanket.

"You can't get cold" he said putting the blanket around Dylan.

„What about you" Dylan looked at his thin pijama shirt and the checked pants.

„Go ahead I'll ba back there in a second" Thomas tried to smile so Dylan walked to the kitchen ignoring the pain.

He sat on one of the barchairs and saw that Mrs. Smith washed her tears away when he entered.

A minute later Thomas stepped into the kitchen, he was wearing Dylan's warm hoodie that was way too big for him but looked adorable.

He stopped next to his mum and helped her to put the chocolate in the three cups and soon they were sitting around the table and drinking in silnce.

„Thomas you need to visit a therapyst," whispered Mrs. Smith and Dylan felt how Thoms' hand shievred in his.

„No mum I don't" he said.

„Dylan please convice him to do it" she begged.

„It's his decision Mrs" Dylan tensed.

„I heared it happened in the hosiptal too, each night. Can you tell me why" she focused her dark eyes on her son.

Thomas started to lower his head and gazed at the tale.

„He's been trough a lot Mrs" whispered Dylan.

„I know and I'm his mother, so I want to herl. I also want to understand.

The silence was vibrating in the room but Thoms kept qiet.

„Fine I'm going to bed" Mrs Smith got up and left.

„Thomas, she loves you no matter what" Dylan caressed his thumb over th boys cheek.

„She won't anymore if I tell her" the boy was still facing the table.

„I had the same problem when I met you and fell in love with you. I was so afraid you won't love me because of what I did. But you're still here. That what tru love is" Dylan moved close and kisse the boy's cheek.

Thmas took a breath but didn't turn to him so Dylan sat there in silence holding his hand and just being there.

He knew it will take a long time, maybe years for Tomas to be able to live with what he had done and he mised his little careles sunshine boyfriend but he loved the same when he was this srius and trubled boy wheo wko up srcming each night.

And this was the momenet when Dylan relized that he beings to understand love at leat a little.
