Sleeping With The Enemy (BoyxBoy)

Chapter One

(Emmett's Point Of View)

"Nicky you can't just leave us behind!" I whined throwing my arms around his slender shoulders and squeezed for dear life.

"I-I know Emmett, I don't wanna leave you guys but it's my dad's decision and he got a job" Nick sniffled his eyes turning a light red colour that was a clear indication that he was gonna start crying, I knew because every time he was about to cry his nose would start turning red with his eyes.

"We've been together for seven years! It isn't a team without everyone in it" I scowled motioning to all five of the team members, seven including us.

"Yeah, you're the best out of all of us" Lux whimpered wiping her eyes in her sleeve starting to sob softly into her hands.

"I still have a phone, please don't get upset or I'll start crying then I'll look like I have leprocy" Nick giggled rubbing his eye with the heel of his hand.

"What when your cheeks get all blotchy?" I added wrapping an arm around his shoulders biting my tongue to keep back any lonely tears that I was holding.

"Yeah like that" He smiled with glassy eyes now entirely filled with tears and his ivory cheeks now spotted with patches of a light red.

"Okay okay. Breathe now Sweetcheeks or you'll create a fashion disaster gurl!" I huffed putting on my cliche' gay feminist voice that without a doubt every time made him laugh. Nick exhaled loudly rubbing at his eyes and grumbling something under his breath before turning back to us.

"You have the picture of all of us with you?" Finnian asked keeping his sad brown puppy dog eyes cast downward to the floor.

"Of course, I will call at least a minimum of two days every week" He smiled warmly holding his pinky to Finny who returned with a reluctant pinky swear.

"Okay, I say. Sandwich the boy!" I yelled and the team swarmed towards him and over ten of the other mercenaries that we knew joined in squeezing the life out of Nick who was now a sobbing mess. About three minutes later he was allowed to breathe again although he was still crying his eyes out.

"Come on buddy, Your dad's probably waiting for you" I tacked on a brave smile for him as he said his goodbyes to the team before catching up to me by the time I was near the entrance.

"Will you be okay? You haven't been alone since.." He cut himself short knowing he was heading into a sensitive subject, I had met Nick when he was five and I was seven. I had been handed over to the industries when my parents were murdered by some Nether beings, Nick's dad offered to take of me and we have been together ever since then all the way through school until our first mission together.

"Huh? Oh. Yeah it'll be okay" I snapped out of my nostalgia nodding absently giving him a half smile while he hesitantly looked between me and the door.

"Go Nicky, I'll be fine" I groaned giving him a light shove towards the door.

"I'm gonna miss you so much Emmett!" He wailed throwing himself into my arms again drenching my shirt in his tears clinging to my arms like a vice whimpering apologies at me.

"I will too Nicky. But you will live, you might even find a boyfriend" I patted his back softy leaning down to his height to kiss his cheek. "Behave. And get going before I smudge the eyeliner Zephyr put on me this morning" I snorted leading him towards the entrance.

"Thank you Em." He bit his bottom lip standing on his tiptoes to return the kiss before ducking out of the building into the pouring rain that was heading towards a storm. That moment you could pinpoint where my life ended, I took a few steps back and fell into the bench dropping my head into my hands.
