Adrian

Time slowed to what seemed like an eternity. My life resumed after Troy left, minus him with me. Although, even the simplest of tasks was agonizingly slow. I had never missed someone before as I did him. I had never wanted someone before, even his former celebrity, like I did the young man that slept beside me. Losing him was like having a limb amputated and the full reality of the situation didn't hit me until several days later. I was in love with him. Those three simple words that I've never muttered to anyone other than my parents.

I loved him with every ounce of my being and it fucking hurt not having him with me. As time passed, even masturbation turned into something out of necessity rather than need. Every time though, it was Troy's sweet little ass milking my cock rather than my own hand. Nothing else would do the trick as I couldn't even keep my own dick hard. Only envisioning me in him, or him in me was enough to get me off.

Still, life went on, at least for one of us. I consumed myself in my work. Trying desperately to research where his sleeping body may lie. All of my efforts were met with firewalls and dead ends. This company which held my baby in an endless sleep kept their cover well under wraps. There was absolutely no way to find his sleeping form even if I wanted to. The online discussion boards regarding his disappearance eventually went completely quiet as the rest of the world forgot about him. Sadly, that wasn't an option for me.

That skinny little fucker had me so head over heels in love with him that I was helpless to do anything but sit back and wait. Wait for his treatment to be over and be awoken with a clean bill of health. Despite the longing pain that I felt for him, I knew deep down inside that I did the right thing that day. I didn't just let him go. I didn't just give upon us. I sent him away to get the medical help that he needed. Even if it meant I would spend every day without him, missing him like no other pain I've ever felt before in my life.
