8. tommy's departure

Dylan POV

I slowly pull away from Thomas when my breath becomes too shaky to handle. I'm halfway between shock and laughter, and so is Thomas, as we're not really sure about what we just did.

''What just happened?" I say giggling, as I lay down to face Thomas. The light of the Moon allows me to see a little bit of him even though we're in the dark, and I can see his cheeks are rosy.

"This." he says, right before leaning in and softly kiss me again, a short and sweet kiss, nothing like the almost desperate I-love-you-and-didn't-know kiss earlier.

And, feeling his soft lips against mine, it happens again: the burning sensation in my stomach, the shivers all over my skin, the impression of my heart being squeezed. It's so good it hurts, it hurts but I also never want this to end.

We cuddle for the rest of the night, talking about everything like we always do, and I've never felt better. My head rests on his chest and I listen to his heartbeat as we speak, I'm in heaven, I could fall asleep right now feeling his hands gently stroking my back and feeling his soft skin underneath my fingers running all over his torso.

"Does this feel weird to you, Dyl?"

"... Not really. I mean, this is obviously new, but it alsl feels... right."

Pressing a long kiss on the top of my head, he squeezes me tighter, so I can be closer to him.

"I felt it, you know Tommy. From the moment I saw you in the cab, I felt something different than before. Maybe because for once we were just the two of us, and we had not seen each other in a long time, and then things happened, like the pool and our dance in the living room, and I knew you meant so much more than I thought."

"You always meant so much more to me, Dylan. It's because of you, you know, that I didn't have lots of panic attacks back then. Whenever I would feel overwhelmed, you were right there and just like that you would ease my mind. You were, and you still are my anchor. Whenever I would feel down, just being there with you calmed me down, and you would cheer my mind up, like the little sunshine you are."

"But how would you do? Being around people all day long, having to play in front of them?"

"That's different... I mean, playing a role is being someone else for a moment, so I wouldn't worry too much you know?"

I don't really know what to respond, so instead I just kiss him lovingly and scoot closer to him (if that's possible).

"You know what this remind me of?" I whisper.

I hear Tommy laugh. "Yeah. That night during the press tour when you came to sleep in my room because of a giant spider in yours?"

"Hey, don't mock. I'm really afraid of spiders Tommy."

"I know baby. A shame that this spider later got away, I would have loved to have you with me longer."

Thomas POV

When I wake up this morning, the first thing I see is my precious Dylan sleeping like a baby next to me. I stay quiet and stare at his flawless face. His mouth is slightly open and he's so cute that I can't help but smile. And then I think about what happened last night. An incredible amount of happiness rushes through my body and I have to make an extra effort not to dance (it would wake Dylan up).

We kissed.

Does that mean he likes me?

Ki Hong is going to be unbearable when I'll tell him.
