Dlive went up to the roof of their house. As he suspected, his best friend was here, standing too close to the edge for his liking.

"What are you doing up here?"
He asked as he wrapped his arms around the smaller ones waist. Dlive felt better having him secure in his arms now.

"Trying not to jump.."
He stated coldly. The older one tightened his grip and let out a sigh.

"What happened, Entoan?"
"I had a nightmare again.."
"..Then why didn't you wake me up?"
"..Didn't want to bother you..."
Entoan mumbled, leaning back into his friends chest.
Dlive kissed the top of his head and let out a shaky breath.

"You can always wake me, call me or just talk to me, whenever you need to, Entoan. You're not bothering me."
The black haired male cuddled even more into Dlives arms.
They were looking over the nightlife of New York. Just the cars and the distant shouting of people in the streets.

"..People were kicking and shouting at me... All I did was kiss someone. Suddenly he was gone and a group of people were...surrounding me..they were so angry..!"
Entoan started sobbing. Dlive turned him in his arms, so his face was now facing the taller one. He squeezed him tightly, rocking both of them back and forth, while hushing the sobbing man in his arms.

"You're cold, Gun. Let's go inside and warm you up. I'll make tea or a hot chocolate!"
Dlive slowly pulled him towards the door, leading to the stairs. He didn't let go of him, all the way down to their kitchen.
Dlive quickly got a fluffy blanket out of his room and wrapped Entoan with it, before bringing him over to the sofa.

"I'll be right back! ..I'm gonna make hot chocolate for both of us. Just..stay here and close your eyes. I'm not gonna leave you!"

Once he got back, he sat down next to Entoan and handed him his hot chocolate.

"Do you want to talk about your dream, bud?"
"Didn't I tell you everything already?"
The younger one snapped at Dlive lightly. He wrapped his arms around the talking blanket again, once he put his cup down.

"Not quite. Who were the people kicking you? ...And who was..the person you were kissing?"
As Entoan was trying to free himself out of his friends grip, Dlive was able to see a slight blush on the black haired male.

"It were just random people around me, okay?"
"I'm inly trying to help you, Gunner!"
Entoan flinched. He was too harsh to Dlive. But...he shouldn't let him know.

"If you talk to the person you kissed maybe all if this will be okay again. You need to let someone in..and if you don't want that to be me, then look for your-"
"Dlive, no! The only person that I want to let in..is you.. But I'm scared! ..I'm scared, okay?"
Dlive let him loose a bit, looking at his friend from a bit further away. It looked almost like he had tears forming in his eyes. Dlive tried to speak a couple of times, with a confused half-grin on his face. He took a long, shaky breath and looked at Entoan once again, the same expression still on his face.

"Why...would you be...scared telling me.."
Dlive couldn't finish his sentence due to his voice cracking at the end. A lone tear ran down his cheek as he was trying to collect his thought.

"Why didn't you...tell me sooner, that..?"
This time he couldn't finish, because he still wasn't sure if he received the right signals.

"I like you...a lot..! And I was scared...that you'd hate me."
Dlive put his hand on Entoans cheek, slowly coming closer, watching his friends reaction. But he didn't back away, the exact opposite happened. Entoan skipped the last bit and laid his lips on Dlives.
Their kiss was perfect. A bit clumsy, because neither of them had kissed a guy before, but still perfect.

"You know...if you want to you could sleep with me. Maybe that'll stop your nightmares from now on."
Entoan nodded, smiling at his roommate.

"I think I'd quite like that.., yes!"
