The Last Hour

Part 13

Roan's POV:

I kissed Bram slowly on the lips, my hands resting on his chest. I wasn't even sure why I gave in to kissing him, I was just hoping that Lilian wouldn't find out because she always finds out.

Bram kisses me back, his hands settling on my waist. He shifts a bit on his bed and pins me down on his bed; he sits on my lower abdomen and stares down at me.

I was breathing hard when he pulled away, I look up at him and I say to him, "I-..." But I was cut off before I could get the words out and was greeted by him kissing me again.

*Time skip*

I was silently lying next to a sleeping Bram, it's been about two hours ago since he and I kissed. I give out a sigh, my fingers making small circles on his chest and I watch as his chest rises and falls. I chew on my lower lip, wondering if this was real between the two of us and I draw my fingers away from his chest.

He shifts a bit in his sleep, a small snore escaping from his lips and he draped a leg over my waist. His paleness of his skin shone in the dark and I couldn't help but wonder if he gotten any sun.

But dear god, he was hot.

The sound of a phone disrupts my thoughts, I sit up slowly so I wouldn't wake him up and I grab my phone off of the floor. I press the silent button on my phone and I realize that my sister was calling me. Shit. Was all I could say, I pull off the blankets that were settling on my waist and I carefully remove Bram's leg from my waist. I quietly exit his room, closing his bedroom door and I go into the kitchen. I press answer.

"Lilian why the hell are you calling me this early?" I reply, leaning against the counter. My back pressing against the cool metal on the counter and I wait for her to answer.

"Where the hell are you, Roan?!" She hisses into her phone, anger in her voice.

I chew on my lower lip, debating if I should tell her and I notice that papers were everywhere in the living room. A smile spreads across my lips and I reply, "Lilian, please. I'm at the cafe, I just woke up due to drinking too much. I passed out." A lie, but she doesn't need to know where I am.

She growls in response, not quite pleased and says, "Well get home as soon as you get sober enough to drive. Cronus wants to speak to you."

I look down at myself, realizing I was only wearing my Calvin Klein boxers and I notice that my bandaged were half on. Well those need changing. I come back to reality and say into the phone, "Alright, give me an hour." I hang up before she could answer.

"Got to leave?" A husky voice asks me.

I look at a tired Bram, my heart slightly breaking and I say, "Yeah... Duty calls. But I'll come back when I can." I bring him into a small hug, realizing he smelled like cinnamon and I smile.

He nods, yawning and kisses my chest before saying, "Okay... But can you at least tell me where he's hiding?" He looks up at me, his eyes searching mine.

I shook my head, kissing his forehead and I say, "I can't, you even told me that we can't tell you due to my protection. Now can you help me reapply a bandage on the injuries?" I smile down at him, my hands resting on his waist.

He nods, tired still and says, "There in the cupboard behind you." He points to the one on the left, as he takes off the old bandage. He winces at the sight of the damage he did yesterday and says, "I'm sorry about this."

I shake my head, grabbing the first aid kit and I respond, "It's okay, Bram. They'll only scar anyways." I hand him the kit and notice Dorian glaring at me. I frown slightly and I say, "I don't think you're cat likes me."

He laughs lowly at me, he opens the kit and replies, "He doesn't like it when strangers are in my house and I also don't think he likes it that I like someone other then him." He pulls out the peroxide and he dabs it onto a cloth. He presses it against my wounds, causing me to hiss out in pain and he says, "Sorry,"

"It's fine," I replied, I pull out the bandages and hand them to him. I laugh softly when he said that Dorian doesn't like it when Bram likes someone other and I say, "You're cat is weird."

He begins to wrap up the injury, he smiles softly and says, "I like weird." He grabs the bandage tape and tapes the bandage together. A smile spreads across his lips and I couldn't help but smile at this.

I take the tape out of his hands, setting it on the counter and I say, "I like weird too." I fix his messy hair, laughing slightly as it goes back to the bed hair he got and I kiss him on the lips. "I should put my clothes back on." I muttered, looking him in the eyes and head back into his room.

----------------------------------------------

After twenty minutes later, I was dressed and I was leaning against Bram's apartment doorframe. I was waiting for him to exit his room and I say, "Bram, I've got to get going."

He comes out of his room, wearing jeans and a plaid button up and says, "Sorry." He stands in front of me, his arms crossed over his chest and looks up at me.

I notice that his shirt wasn't buttoned right and I laugh. I shook my head and say, "You messed up your shirt." I unbuttoned the shirt and I fix it.

He watches me in silence, his hands in his pockets and says, "Thanks. Now maybe you should get going." He pats my chest, a small smile plays on his lips.
