Wanting (**A NovaHD Fanfic/Smut**)

Part Two: Strides

(A/N: This chapter is cute. Nothing too dirty happening. It's a major part of the story though, so you might want to read :3 Enjoy! And sorry for any grammatical errors or other things. I try <3)

~ALEKS POV~

We ended the recording session, and I was still in shock. James fapping almost sounded real, his screams almost genuine. But what am I thinking? How would he be able to do that to a picture of me, let alone with me sitting and listening in? Was I mistaken when I heard...

When I heard him faintly say "Ale---" then correct himself?

It must be something of my imagination... something my head was doing to me because of how turned on I was. But I couldn't have misheard something like that! It's impossible... I know what I heard

I have to tell James....He needs to know how I feel... now.

*cough* "Hey, James?" I followed him into the kitchen, where he was grabbing a soda from the fridge. I took a second to look at him before he turned around. His tan skin, his short black hair, his tall and sturdy build... the way his ass stuck out a little when he crouched to grab that soda, when he stood up his bulge slightly prodding into the zipper of his jeans~

I wanted to touch him in some way. I needed to... Anything. Just a brush of a finger, a touch of the leg. Anything, even things as simple and innocent as that... Even though I wanted far more that innocent. I bit my lip to hold in the sigh that was threatening to escape me at the thought of merely touching him.

I forgot I was still staring when I trailed my eyes upwards and met his eyes, looking at me. The same shock of heat was sent through me as his dark brown eyes met mine. I shivered, waking up from my little daydream.

Fuck, I thought to myself, I hope that wasn't noticeable.

~JAMES POV~

I stand up from grabbing my soda and turn around, knowing that the beautiful Russian would be there. He sounded like he wanted to talk about something. But when I turned around, he was looking at me... really, really looking at me.

He was biting that perfect lower lip, his eyes slightly dulled and darkened by some unknown feeling. That was a look I've never saw in his eyes before. It looked hungry, wanting. I wasn't sure what he wanted until I placed all the pieces together.

He was looking at me while biting his lip. He was looking at me with the dark eyes.

He didn't notice I was looking at him when his gaze travelled up from my lower body to my face. Our eyes met, and it seemed like the darkness in his gaze was snatched away and replaced by some other emotion... Embarassment?

He very noticeably shivered when our eyes met, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. The sexy being in front of me seemed to be melting, slowly forming into his own little puddle of pure...

Pure lust. Pure love

Everything flew together and hit me like a splash of cold water on a hot day. Refreshing, waking me up from the blind state I was in. I never noticed before how much he looked at me. I never noticed before that in the corner of my eye, he was biting his lip, and crossing his legs. Now I'm looking back and I see. I know now.

He wanted me? is that what this is all saying? This man, this love of my life, wanted me? Loved me, even?

He coughed again, trying to resume the conversation we were supposed to be having. Our eyes were still held with each others, not daring to break this building electricity surrounding us.

"James, I... I've been needing to tell you something... Something I've been hiding for a while now. I--- I just didn't want to ruin us as friends but I think I've been hiding for too long so I just wanted to tell you---"

He was rushing the words out of his mouth, like if he didn't say them quick enough, he would never speak again. But even the rushing of his words was cut off before he could finish. I closed the space between us, taking one... two strides. I tipped his chin up and pressed my lips to his, gasping at the immediate effect of the touch. He felt it, too, because we were both trembling in a matter of seconds.

Fuck it. I'm telling him now.

"Aleks... I --" I wasn't able to finish.

He made me look at him and said something that would change our lives forever.

"James, you love me too?"

(A/N: Very interesting... They know they love each other now. So whats there to hold back? (I'm pretty much foreshadowing smutty smut smut in the next part.) Not sure if I'll continue past that, but if it's requested, I'll try. I hope you enjoyed Part Two: Strides!)
