Chapter 6 ~ It Smells Like You

I wake up smiling, laying back on the couch with my head resting on one of the arms, Patton's head lies on my chest, he looks peaceful.  I watch him for a while, absent-mindedly carding through his hair before I carefully slide out from beneath him and adjust him so he's comfortable.  I didn't want to move, and I wish that I'd captured that moment to keep forever, but I didn't want things to get awkward if he woke up and found himself laying on me, me gazing down at him.  After a while he wakes up, and I bring him a bowl of cinnamon crunch cereal, his favourite.
"Thanks!"  He exclaims as I hand him the bowl.  "You don't even eat this cereal though"
"I buy it just for when you come over"  I tell him.  It's true.
"Awwww that's sweet"  He says as I walk back to the kitchen.  I smile really widely, but he doesn't see it. 
"The rain's eased a bit, but it hasn't stopped yet"  I call out from the kitchen.
"Huh"  He responds.  I return to the living room after I've finished putting the cereal back in the cupboard.
"Oh, you slept in the wet clothes, I'll wash them for you before you leave"  I tell him.  He must be cold, the house isn't the most well heated.  "I have stuff you can wear".
"That'd be awesome, thanks"
We go upstairs and he follows me into the bedroom as I dig around my closet for something for him to wear.  He spots a pile of my recently worn clothes on the floor.
"Oooh, what about this?"  He says, pulling a quite worn out t shirt out of the pile.
"I mean, you can, it isn't dirty, but it hasn't been washed since I last wore it"  I tell him. 
"All the more reason" He replies quietly, lifting the shirt to his nose and smelling it.  He smiles innocently, "It smells like you". My heart skips two beats when he says that, oh my god.  I smile back as he pulls off his still slightly damp polo shirt and pulls on my t shirt, I look at the floor for a second, but he doesn't seem to care if I watch him.  "That's better"  He says, throwing his shirt my way, I catch it and smile, tossing him a pair of jeans and leaving the room to head to the laundry room.  He joins me a few seconds later, handing me his still damp jeans, which I put in the wash with his shirt.  "Thanks" He whispers, standing behind me and putting his chin on my shoulder, I almost shudder.
"Anytime".

After a few hours of video games, I get Patton's clothes from the laundry room, he changes, and grabs his things ready to leave.
"Oh!"  He says, reaching down the side of the couch and pulling up my hoodie, "thanks for letting me borrow this yesterday" he says, draping it over the armchair.  I smile and walk him to the door, opening it for him.
"I'll see you later at Roman's?"  I ask.
"Yep, see you at seven!"  He grins before waving a quick goodbye, and dashing through the rain back to his car.  I once again, watch his leave until his car is out of sight.
