When Love Takes Over - Rykey (boyxboy)

Mikey's POV

I couldn't get that text out of my head, and i knew i wouldn't be able to sleep for it. Ryan fell asleep pretty quickly, though he always seemed to. I lay awake, my head on his chest as i listened to his steady breathing and his heartbeat. This was one of my favorite things, i loved cuddling, but it was just a million times better when it was Rye that i was cuddling. I mean, that's normal, right? You're meant to hug your best mate, show them affection... right?

I eventually managed to drift off to sleep, though that picture was burned into my brain, and Rye's face when i questioned him about it...

He'd blushed. He blushed at a fucking picture of us. In a heart. Does that mean something? Or does it just mean Andy's an idiot? See now i was overthinking, it probably meant nothing, but i couldn't help but hope i was wrong.

My wake up call the next day was glorious. Rye was singing his favorite song, and i'd fucking missed hearing him sing. It was beautiful, and it woke me up for the first time in over a month. It was safe to say i woke up in a good mood.

"Hey, you!" Ryan smiled when he noticed i was awake.

I raised a brow when i realised he was naked, "what are you doing?"

"I just showered, sorry," he chuckled, drying his hair with his towel. I'd seen him naked a million and one times, we'd seen each other naked a million and one times, but that doesn't mean my breath won't hitch in my throat every time i see him like that.

"Nah, you're good," i chuckled, "i need to shower too actually."

"You should've let me know before i got in, i'd have joined you," he winked, a cheeky smirk on his face that just made me want to kiss him. Fuck.

"What if i told you that you still stink?" i smirked.

"Then i'd have to get another shower, surely?"

"But i'm about to get a shower!" i laughed.

"Well then, i'll have to get in with you!"

"Fuck off!" i laughed. I'd have fucking loved that. There was no real excuse though, we'd showered together once or twice before, but that was due to timing, we'd needed to be as quick as possible.

A mischievous smile appeared on Ryan's face as he wrapped his towel around his waist again and ran.

I followed him into the bathroom, rolling my eyes when i heard the shower turn on, "Ryan, get out!" i laughed.

"Nope, you're joining me," he smirked, standing under the water as he watched me pull my shirt off.

"You're an idiot," i sighed, but humoured him and stripped off, getting in next to him.
