Tommy woke up and snuggled closer to Adam, looking at the clock which read 3:00 am. Adam opened his eyes and looked down at Tommy. "You okay?" He asked. "Yeah, I'm fine. I just woke up for no reason," Tommy said. Adam nodded and sighed, holding Tommy closer to him.
"Do you trust me now?" Tommy asked. "Not 100%," Adam said. "Why not? I haven't killed you yet," Tommy reminded him. "Maybe you were going to and that's why you woke up," Adam retorted. Tommy sighed, shaking his head. "I don't have enough skill to kill someone," he whispered.
"Sure you do. Do you trust me now?" Adam asked. "Not 100%," Tommy murmured, grinning. "Then how much?" "89 ish," Tommy replied, locking eyes with adam. "Y'know, the more you keep talking to me, the more I trust you. Right now it's about 97," Adam said. "Well I need to keep talking then," Tommy said, sighing.
"Go to bed," Adam chuckled. Tommy nodded and closed his eyes again, breathing in Adams scent.

Tommy woke up and saw Adam wasn't in bed with him. He sat up and saw the bathroom light was on and heard the water running. He got up and went into the kitchen, pouring a bowl of cereal.
Adam walked in the room and smiled at Tommy. "How much is it now?" Tommy asked. "99," Adam said. "Tell me!" Tommy yelled. "That just lowered it to 70," Adam grinned, sitting my Tommy. "No!" Tommy groaned. "I was kidding. You won't tell anyone, will you?" Adam asked. "I don't really have anyone to tell," Tommy said. "When you get people to talk to promise you won't tell," Adam said. "I promise," Tommy said.
"I-I'm not fully. . . human," Adam said. "W-what do you mean?" Tommy asked. "So my age. It isn't, really, close to yours," Adam said. "As in, I'm about 40. I don't just look really young because makeup. Look, no makeup. Im a vampire," he said.
Tommy nodded. "Wait, you aren't disgusted?" Adam asked. "Of course not. I think it's cool," Tommy grinned. "Well exept for the having to kill animals to get blood or just going to the store and buying a bunch of bags of blood," Adam said. "Still. You get to live forever," Tommy pointed out. "True. So, do you trust me 100% yet?" Adam asked. "90," Tommy said.
"Wow. You don't trust people easily," Adam observed. "Yeah. Problably in a few days, though," he said and Adam nodded. "Wanna watch some movies?" Adam asked.
Tommy shrugged. "Depends on what you have," he said. "I have every movie you can think of," he said. "The Last days of edgar harding?" Tommy asked and Adam nodded. "I'll get it, be right back," he said and Tommy nodded, sitting on the couch.
Adam came back and sat by Tommy, turning the movie on. Tommy looked at him and scooted away. "I won't bite you," Adam said and he scooted closer to his side and cuddled up to him.
"You've only known me for two days and you're already cuddling me?" Adam asked. "You're warm," Tommy said. "Okay. . ." Adam replied slowly. "What is it now?" He asked. "Still 90," Tommy answered. "I hope you trust me soon. Because I don't have anyone to tell and I never will," Adam whispered, leaning over Tommy.
Tommy closed his eyes and breathed in deeply, smiling. "92," he murmured. "I just need 8 more percentage and then you'll tell me," Adam said. "Yeah," Tommy replied, closing his eyes.
"You tired?" Adam asked. "No, just thinking about how I'll tell you when the time comes," Tommy said, humming soflty. "Alright," Adam answered and looked back at the tv.

Tommy opened his eyes and looked up at Adam. "I'll tell you tonight, okay?" He asked. "You mean now?" Adam asked. "What?" "It's midnight. Let's go to bed and you can tell me, okay?" Adam asked and toomy nodded, nervously gulping.
They sat down on the bed and Adam looked expectantly at Tommy. "So um, my-my dad kicked me out of the house when I was nine. My mom died when I was born. He sent me away with absolutely nothing. I wandered the streets and someone came out of their house and took me in.
"They cared for me -or took care of me, I guess- and then started training me. It was a whore house. I was raised as a whore. But um, after about ten-ish years the owner kicked me out because none of the other ones were getting any business and they were quitting. I think it was because I was really good or something.
"So I was kicked out again. Then you found me," Tommy finished, looking at Adam. Adam stared at him and Tommy sighed. "I shouldn't have told you," he grumbled and started walking out of the room. Adam pulled him back, hugging him.
"I'm so sorry that happened to you Tommy," he whispered and Tommy shrugged. "It's okay," he said. "No it's not. Has anyone ever loved you? Properly?" Adam asked. "If my mom stayed alive both my parents would have, but no," Tommy said.
Adam hugged him again and rested his chin on Tommy's shoulder. "Now you have one person," he murmured. "What?" Tommy asked. "Me. I love you," Adam said. "But you've only known me for a few days," Tommy said. "And it's felt like years for me. Do you believe in love at first sight?" Adam asked. "No," Tommy said. "Me either. I thought it was complete bullshit. But them I met you, and when I first saw you I realized I loved you," Adam whispered.
"I don't know what love is," Tommy murmured. "It's when someone seems like the only person in the world, and it seems like you spend no time with them, minutes seem like seconds," Adam explained. Tommy looked down and Adam lifted his chin up. "I love you, Tommy Joe," he whispered and pressed his lips onto Tommy's gently.
