Stay With Me (boyXboy)

-10-

*Lucas*

I came round to find that I was in a room on my own, probably because I was in hospital. I remembered my best friends taking the piss out of me for being afraid of wasps... I think this is a valid reason. I still had no idea what was going on though. I was all alone in this room, my friends or my dad nowhere to be seen.

About 10 minutes later Jaxon and Nate walk in both of them looking apologetic. The truth is I wanted to be mad at them for making fun of me... but when I saw their faces I couldn't, I knew how much both of them hated hospitals... and they stayed... for me. "We're so sorry Luc, we didn't realise you were allergic." Jaxon timidly spoke. I shook my head and opened my arms for him. He gladly obliged and pulled me in for a tight hug.

A little while later the doctor came in and told me that I was good to go. So we had gotten me dressed and all we had to do was sign me out.

We got back to the hotel. It was nice to lie on a bed that didn't smell like disinfectant and actually smelt like... you know... sheets. Nate laid down next to me and pulled me into him. With Jaxon holding us from the other side it was like a Luc sandwich. "Let's make a promise to always be there for each other. To never let anything come between us, and grow old together as best mates... or well kinda more" Jax chuckled. Both Nate and I chuckled with him. And quickly agreed by a group hug.

That night I fell asleep in the arms of my two best friends. I couldn't have asked for a better night's sleep. Between the two guys I loved the most... after everything we have been through together, we deserved to be happy. Although being in love with two guys at the same time is not normally ideal. It was working for all three of us right now and that was all that mattered.

The morning after I woke up, both Jax and Nate were still asleep. I was in the middle and had no idea where to look. Then I heard some irregularities of breathing. It was coming from Lucas. I looked over and he was sweating. He must have been having a nightmare. I decided that the best thing to do was to hold him tightly.

Just then Jax' head shot up as his whole body shook with fright. He managed to hit my nose and give me quite the bruise. He woke up with the impact that my face had on his head. What a sight he must have awoken to. Me holding my nose from the pain that his night terror caused me. He looked up at me and understood what happened. He had been suffering from night mare since he came to live with my father and I. I guess it was the trauma from his own family. I was glad that he was living with me now. I could protect him. And it makes it easier for 'sleepovers'. Jaxon kissed my nose. He often kisses me where I hurt myself. It shows that he cares about me. He doesn't want to turn out like his parents. He wants to make anybody and everybody feel loved. And I think that is what Nathaniel and I love most about him.
