~Christian's POV~
I got Celeste a cup of iced coffee,and sat on the couch. "What's going on?" Jesse asked,walking over with Pat.
I showed him the photo. His face fell. Pat looked equally upset. "She doesn't remember..." Pat murmured. I nodded.
They sat with us. "Who's Xavier?" Celeste asked again.
"Xavier is a very close and very dear best friend of ours. You and him were two peas in a pod though. You loved each other a lot." "I mean,the day you met,you guys talked all day and all night about your childhood,high school,your job." Jesse explained fondly.
"You were like Mitchel and I. Inseperable. Laughed over pretty much anything. You two have a lot and I mean a fuck ton in common." I added in.
"You always called him the angel on your shoulder. He called you his good luck charm." Jesse said endearingly.
There was a knock on the door. "I got it." Mitchel said. He got up,and walked over to the door,and opened it. Xavier stood there. He looked at us, then Xavier.
"Mate I don't think right now's the best-" He started.
"Celeste?" Xavier asked quietly,in awe.
Mitchel stepped out,closing the door behind them.
After a minute,Celeste got up and opened the door. "Mitchel, it's okay. Let him in yea?" She asked.
They both stepped in. Celeste sat on the couch again,and Mitchel sat beside her.
"Celeste,this is Xavier." I said.
Celeste gave him a warm smile and shook his hand. "So what's going on?" Xavier asked.
"They're trying to help me rejog my memory,Little by little." Celeste replied.
"I uh.. I found this photo,in the bathroom.." she explained,handing him the photo.
Xavier softly smiled as he took it. "What'd they tell you?" He asked softly,admiring her.
"Not too much so far since we were only like.. thirty seconds in when you knocked.. but uh.. Christian said we were really close.. inseperable since when we met.." "Jesse said... We have a lot in common.. and we'd talk all day and night.. and that you've known each other for a long time." Celeste replied.
"That's all true.. I met them through Mitchel about two and a half years ago. They introduced me to you about ten months,three weeks,and two days ago." "You were really ecstatic and so so sweet. You were really kind and down for any kind of fun." Xavier explained.
"How'd we meet? How'd I meet these guys?" She asked.
"You worked at a really cool bar,that was eightees sci-fi themed,that was next door to a small,indoor concert venue." "The boys had just wrapped up their show,and you were working that late night shift." "You and the boys got to chatting,and hit it off really well. They invited you on the last leg of tour,to work the merch table." "And two days later,at a café near the Sydney opera house,you, Jesse and Mitchel,were grabbing some coffees and snacks,and I happened to be there." "I waved you over,and we got to talking about the concerts you've attended since high school, and how I first started producing music with Mitchel." Xavier explained fondly. He had a look of Endearment in his eyes.
"That sounds really sweet. Maybe... We can grab a coffee tomorrow and... Relive that? I mean,if you aren't busy?" Celeste asked.
"I'd really like that." Xavier replied softly.
Celeste yawned and rubbed her eyes. She hummed a light chuckle. "Catching up is more exhausting than I originally thought." She murmured. She rested her head on my shoulder and closed her eyes.
"I'll be right back." I whispered. I carried her upstairs,and Xavier followed me.
I tucked Celeste into the guest bed,and looked at Xavier. He had a look of awe and adoration on his face. "She's beautiful." He murmured.
I nodded,and looked over. Mitchel walked over. He grabbed my hand. "c'mon bub. Let's go to bed." He said softly.
I looked at Xavier. "Go ahead. I'll keep watch." He murmured. I nodded and followed Mitchel to our bedroom.
I pulled off my shirt and jeans and put on a pair of sweatpants. Mitchel but his lip and pulled me close. "God you're beautiful. How did I get so luckily blessed to call you mine?" He murmured.
"I ask myself that every day babyboy." I replied. I softly kissed him and he smiled into it. He walked us over to the bed and laid me down,getting on top of me.
I usually topped,but I was letting him tonight. He softly kissed my neck, whispering "I love you'"s as he reached my chest,then down my stomach.
