So just a quick heads up before I start. If u see these thingies * that means it's a phone message. And if there's words in italics and underlined, that means that its background music. So enjoy
*1 new message*
James woke up to the satisfying bing of his phone. He sat up in his bed and fixed his hair a little before grabbing the phone and checking the message. He had never seen the number from the unknown message but he knew exactly who it was. He read the message out loud."Hey cutie." He whispered, reading out the message. The blonde bit his lip as he typed out "hey handsome". He walked out of his room in his small studio apartment. He placed down his phone on the counter in the small kitchen to grab a pan and place it on the stovetop. Bing!
*3 new messages*
James unlocked his phone and giggled, the messages read "so do you wanna come over" The the next one said "to my house" then the next one "for supper, and maybe a sleepover ;)" James grabbed the eggs from the fridge before grabbing the phone and eagerly typing back and swiftly sending the message "yeah, I can't be there till 7 depending how far your house is from mine" James typed back. Almost immediately a reply came through "look out your window" it read. James looked at the text before looking out the window, across his small apartment building was a slightly taller apartment building, basically all he could see. He scanned the apartment in front of his till he seen him, it was unmistakable. He wore the same hoodie as the other night, red and baggy. His hair was perfectly styled the same way it was the night before. James could notice much more do to the distance that his phone camera aloud him to see, but he was still able to identify where Adam lived. He texted Adam back, the slightly sour look still plastered onto his face. He couldn't finish typing before he got a text saying "I looked your name up on Snapchat and checked your snap map, you shouldn't have your profile open to the public, there's serious creeps who could track you down and you wouldn't know." James smirked before typing back. "Awe, look who's worried about me" "Well I can't have you blowing me off because the lousy excuse that you got murdered or held hostage or something" James replies with a laughing face "Now you have 2 hours to get ready for our date, not that you need it or anything, but get ready and be here by 7! Apartment 32" Adam said, James told him he'll get ready before turning off his phone and putting the eggs away after realizing his small hangover made him sleep in till 5pm, he sighed and started getting ready for the date, adding in a little animation time in between. He walked out of his apartment and locked the door before checking the time, 6:48 the clock read and he dashed over to Adams apartment and up to his floor before knocking on the door. He could hear small bits of music and started to relax as he took in the smell of steak from inside the apartment, no one answered so James knocked again before adjusting the cuff on his button up shirt, along with the collar, and his jeans waistband before the door finally opened. Adam appeared with a very happy look on his face. "Well look who it is, and 2 minutes early!" Adam exclaimed.
"Yeah well would have been 4 if you would of answered the door." James said in a joking tone. Before walking into the apartment. Adam removed the cloth from his shoulder. His blue t-shirt and dark blue jeans brought out his skin colour, and his hair was a even balance of 48% gel 48% hairspray and 4% actual hair. Adam pulled out a chair at a small table in front of his small kitchen, on top there was two plates with steak and a bit do salad and then a bowl of salad in the Center. Adam day down himself before creating small talk with James.
"So James Rallison, tell me stuff."
"What kind of stuff?" James asked before taking a. Bite of salad."
"Well last night you said you were a animater, what's that like?"
"Oh it's just dandy!" James over exaggerated." "Your stuck in your room for about five hours a day unless your deciding to take the day off, or hung over. Oh! And you get these little kids that notice you in public and want pictures so you are obviously not going to say no, and then when another kid sees the kid you took a picture with get a picture, that other kid wants a picture and it ends up being an endless train, so now I just order groceries online, it's great!" James exclaimed, obviously joking. Adam laughed a little.
"And what are the benefits?" Adam asked, expecting another joke.
"You get to do what you love, it doesn't really outweigh getting tackled by kids with phones to take pictures, but it's still pretty great doing what I love." James said, his voice was calm. Like an ocean, delivering every wave of speech more calm and knowing. At least this was what Adam thought.
"That's like with me and music, it's what I love." Adam told James, taking a bite of his own steak. James glanced up at him from his food.
"Well at least you don't have children tackling you all the time, lucky bastard." James joked. Adam and James started laughing, the rest of their time they continued laughing and talking to eachother and getting to know more about one another. Shortly after Adam took the dishes from the table into the kitchen, Adam came back to the table, with a acoustic guitar. James looked up at him before smiling. Adam started playing calmly, just loose notes.
"Are you taking requests good sir?" James giggled.
"Depends what song your requesting." Adam replied smiling and James soft smile and blonde hair.
"Hm, lets see, how about all of me, John legend." Adam sighed after James request.
"No, to overused and a bit old. I was thinking more of something like this." Adam softly strummed the guitar and didn't stop. The strings must have already been set up for this song. He started to open his mouth and form soft words, James snapped back to reality instead of focusing on Adams hair, or his seemingly soft hands. "I found a love." Adam sang. "For me. Darling just dive right in, and follow my lead." Adams voice rang through the entire apartment. "Well I found a boy, beautiful and sweet. Never knew you were the someone, waiting for me." He placed down the guitar and background music started playing. Just an instrumental, Adam sung the words, but it felt like Adam had made it for him, and only for him. Adam got up and went over to James before reaching out his hand. "But darling just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own and in your eyes you're holding mine." Adam sang, James ignored how bad he was at dancing before reluctantly grabbing Adams hand just to be yanked up and spun until he hit Adams chest with his back. James let out a startled huff before getting spun back around and rocked back in forth to Adams calm words."When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath!" He sang, James melted into his gentle hands and get into the groove of the dance, the spins, the rocking back and forth, the twirls. He had it all down. He decided to surprise Adam. Adam finished singing the chorus then James opened his mouth to sing that next verse.
"Well I found the man, stronger then anyone I know. he shares my dreams and I hope that one day, we'll share his home." He glanced up at Adam from his gaze in the floor. Adam was surprised he lured out the marvellous voice again, but he just melted into the words and James grip to the dance. He continued rocking back and forth till the chorus came back around. James and Adam started singing the chorus together and their voices were amazing together. Every note was perfectly in sync with the others movements and notes. Adam spun James around once more before they said the last line before their dance ended.
"Darlin' you look perfect tonight." They sang. The music faded out but instead of going back and sitting down, talking about how fun that was, they just stood there. James' elbows rested in Adams hands while Adams elbows rested on James' hands. They starred into each others eyes for what felt like forever, the lust to kiss each other sinked into their skin and it was almost unbearable at that point.
"Adam, I... than-" James was cut of by the brunettes arms being wrapped around him into a hug like position and Adams nose was placed beside James', their lips not even a centimetre apart, Adam brushed his lips against James' before finally smashing them together, James was still in shock but sunk into the kiss eventually, they parted for air. The kiss was rather slow but it just made James want more. James started into Adams chocolatey eyes ones more before smashing his lips on Adams. Adam grabbed James' hips and lifted him up. James, by instinct and pure lust, wrapped his legs around Adams waist, not breaking the kiss for a single second. Adam walked James to his room before laying down, James still clinging onto his body. The kisses got messier with each passing second. James finally broke the kiss and stared into Adams eyes before saying,
"We should stop before one thing leads to another." James' eyes were sympathetic when Adam looked into them. Adam planted one last gentle kiss onto James soft lips.
"Ok, are you going to take up that sleepover?" Adam questioned, part of him serious but part of him joking. James smirked before nodding his head.
"Can we go to my house though, 'cause if I stay here any longer then I'll be tempted to clean, you should tidy up more, no offence." Adam giggled and got up, he walked to his closet and grabbed a bag and shoved in an extra hoodie and pare of jeans. James smiled and got up, walking to the door, Adam followed close behind. James opened the door for Adam before walking out himself, Adam locked the door before they walked out of the building to James. On the way to James house, they were walking so close their hands grazed eachother every once in awhile. James, being clingy, reached his finger out and rubbed a circle on Adams hand, then their hands grazed again. Adam, wanting to be a tease, pretended not to notice, but next time their hands grazed he attached his pinkie to James for three seconds then let go. He could almost hear James whimper at that. He decided he teased him enough and then grabbed James hand and intertwined their fingers. Adam could almost see happiness radiating off of James, before he looked over. Adam looked away and his checks burned up from being caught staring.Eventually, they made it to James house and settled into his tiny, yet pleasing living room.
"Wanna watch a movie?" James asked. He pulled out a remote and turned on the tv, Adam quickly nodded. James put on Netflix and scrolled through the movies, hesitating in the horror section.
"Wait go back up!" Adam called from his ball like position on the other end of the couch. James slowly scrolled back up to the horror section, hesitating with each swipe up."We should watch the new it! I waving watched it yet." James felt like shaking his head but he couldn't let the handsome man beside him think he's a coward.
"O-ok, sure." James stuttered clicking on the 'it' movie. As soon as the movie started he was sweating, but the only thing that reassured him was adam trying to smoothly scoot over ever once in awhile, James caught him in the act one time but Adam just used "adjusting my position" as an excuse instead. James glanced over at Adam, "adjusting his position" again. He slightly smiled before deciding, maybe I should play with him a little.
"Oh my god, it's so hot in here." James smirked before grabbing at the bottom of his shirt. Adam watched as james slowly pulled off his shirt, James even swears he seen him drool a little. "Oo, that's a bit better." The bliss swung his arms around him to get the air moving before grabbing a thin blanket and laying it across his stomach and thighs. James slid over a few inches while Adam was to focused on the movie to notice. James glanced at Adam and looked up at the movie right at a jump scare. James shouted out, making Adam jump as well before they both looked at each other an laughed, but after they still continued watching the show, shoulders now touching thanks to the jump moving them closer. Adam looked at James, who was watching the tv with fear in his eyes. Adam wanted to giggle but decided against it. But when James jumped again the next time he couldn't help it, just like how he couldn't help cuddling up to him and laying him down on his chest. He could tell James was confused, but he didn't care. All he knew is that he wasn't and that was enough to make him know that this, right in this moment. Everything was perfect.Absolutely perfect
Heyyy, I'm pretty sure you can see it was a bit rushed at the end,And spoiled! Don't get to attached to this whole sleepover and dancing stuff cause shiz is going to go down. And feelings will be hurt
