Touch

58.

Brett's birthday rolled around and the first reminder Brett got of it was being woken up to breakfast in bed and Eddy humming "happy birthday".
He sat up in bed and grabbed his glasses, realizing his breakfast consisted of the usual eggs, some bacon and a small stack of tiny pancakes with a single candle stuck in it.
"Happy birthday, love. Blow out the candle and wish for something", Eddy said softly, setting the tray of food in Brett's lap. Brett yawned and rubbed his eyes.
"Let me wake up, god", Brett said with a chuckle, but leaned forward and blew out the light. He closed his eyes for a moment, thinking about his wish and smiled to himself.
"Are you falling asleep again, or wishing?" Eddy asked with a grin.
"Wishing, so shut up for a moment", Brett joked before grabbing a piece of bacon. "Just kidding, I'm done wishing. Come eat with me?"
"Yeah, I'll just grab my own tray and some coffee. Do you want coffee?" Eddy said, leaning over to kiss Brett's forehead.
"Yes please", he said with a smile, and Eddy whisked out to the kitchen to fix them coffee.

A few minutes later, they were both in bed having breakfast.
"Are we doing anything else today?" Brett asked, chewing on his pancakes. Eddy got a smile playing on his lips.
"I mean, it's up to you if you want to, but I thought maybe we could visit the fair?"
"You mean the ridiculously expensive kind of theme park that's set up in the park? Sounds fun, but it's really expensive, isn't it?"
Eddy leaned over and kissed his cheek.
"My treat, of course", he said with a smile, taking a bite of his own eggs. "Unless you want to do something else?"
Brett shrugged.
"Whatever you've planned is good", he said, taking the last bite of his food. He set the tray on the bedside table and took only the hot cup of coffee in his hands, warming his hands on it. "As long as I get to spend the day with you, you know?"

Eddy took the last bite of his food and set the tray aside as well, grabbing his coffee. Brett snuggled closer to Eddy and leaned his head on his shoulder.
"Thanks for the breakfast", he said, closing his eyes. "It was just what I wanted."
Eddy turned to kiss the top of Brett's hair and snaked his arm around his waist.
"I know you well, you know", he said, taking a sip of his coffee.

They sat in silence until both had finished their coffee, just enjoying each other's presence. Brett was starting to get sleepy again when Eddy carefully tilted his chin up with one finger and leaned down to kiss him gently.
"If we're heading out, we should go now", he mumbled, lips brushing against Brett's as he did. Brett shrugged, half closing his eyes.
"Can't it wait?" Brett mumbled back, feeling Eddy's breath on his lips. He snuck his hands under Eddy's t-shirt, sneaking them around his waist to rest on his back.
"Hmm I thought maybe we could save this for tonight...", Eddy mumbled, sounding like he'd much rather do what Brett wanted now.
"It's so long until tonight, though", Brett complained jokingly, moving to softly touch his lips against Eddy's neck.
"Mmm no, Brett, if we're going to the fair we actually gotta go...", Eddy mumbled, kissing the top of his head.
"Hmm alright", Brett mumbled, kissing Eddy's cheek. "Let's head out, then."
