The Boss (boyxman)

Chapter 10

It's been heaven for them these past few weeks. Going on dates, spending time together, Nathan feels like they’re a married couple on honeymoon. Everything seems to be good to be true. He got to experience luxury things that he could never think he will get. Nadeem is like the rich husband that will give you anything you wish for. You didn’t ask for anything, but he gives you the world.

They didn’t make their relationship official yet. Seeing how much effort Nadeem showed, Nathan knows the boss is driven towards it. He didn’t tell his sister yet. No one knows about them. They’re not announcing it. They’re just enjoying their time together. And that’s enough for them.
The smell of very delicious bacon wakes Nathan up. He groans loudly when the sun hit his eyes.

“God… I hate morning sun.”

He tries to roll to the other side only to find the spot empty. He’s not surprised despite the smell that woke him. He just wishes the man still there so he could stare at him.

That almost normal now. It almost became a routine for him to stay at Nadeem’s house. And Natalie stops complaining when he told his sister he stays with his boyfriend. He thanks God because that lady is never interested in his dating life. Not because she’s not supporting gay. But because she’s not like taking care of his brother’s love life.

Nathan sits up slowly. Rubbing his face a few times enough to make his eyes open wide. He stretches his body and grabs his shirt from the floor. Thankfully he has already put his boxer on after the sex last night. Hell, that’s because he needs to pee in the middle of the night and decide to put it on.

He walks out slowly and shaky. The big apartment sounds very quiet. Only the sound of someone cooking can be heard. And when the boss becomes visible, Nathan couldn’t help but smile. He knows this is the risk. His feelings growing each day especially when he sees the man.
When Nadeem turn around, he gasps. He didn’t notice the boy there. And Nathan doesn’t bother to announce himself.

“How long have you been there?” he asks, placing the bacon into the plate that he prepared on the table.

“A few minutes. Enough for me to stares into your hot body.” Nathan winks with a smirk.

Nadeem laughs. Yes, he didn’t wear any shirt. Only short pants. And his body showing his muscles. His face change to concern all of a sudden. “How’s your… Um…”

“Ass?” Nathan cut him off knowing exactly what the man wants to ask.
Nadeem is not someone who’s very good at showing his care by words. So, Nathan needs to guess everything.

“Yes.” Nadeem clear his throats.

“Well, thankfully it’s our routine.”
It’s true. Almost every night they’re having sex. Nadeem got addicted to it. Saying he never got anything as amazing as it is which, Nathan would never believe it. But he knows the man just feeling blessed at the moment.

“You’re a sex monster.” Nathan comment playfully.

“Blame yourself to be a sex drive.” Nadeem shot him back before joining the boy at the table after serving everything.

“You’re not staying with me because of sex isn’t it?”

That question makes Nadeem freeze up. He stares at Nathan who laughs playfully. The boy knows that the man does not like being accused like that. He doesn’t like it when he’s been labelled as someone who just wants to use anyone he wants.

“I’m kidding, I’m kidding.” Nathan waves his hand in front of the man’s face.

Just after a few minutes, Nadeem starts moving again with relief. He continues to eat his breakfast.

“Are you going to work today?”

Nadeem nods. “I have meeting. Thank God it’s not an early one. What about you?”

Nathan glance at the clock. “One hour and a half.”

“Are you going home today or are you going to come here?” Nadeem looks at the boy.

This is the time Nathan wish he has a power that could block his heart from making any decision. Whenever the boss looks at him like that, he could never say no. He will obediently say yes. Not that he won't want to do what the man wish for. But he still needs to take care of his normal life.

“Let’s see.” Nathan shrugs avoiding eye contact. “I’ll see what happen. I need to see how my sister is doing.”
Nadeem nods. He will never force Nathan to do anything. That’s what makes the boy like him too. He’s not going to make anyone feel guilty.

“But who knows I can come over after.”

Nadeem smile at him. “Take your time. You know where to come if you want to.”

“Is that mean that this house becomes my home already?” Nathan smirk. He almost couldn’t hide the hopeful tone in it.

“If you want to make it like that, I would never complain.” Nadeem winks making him blush. “You know the passcode.”

Nathan laughs before continue eating his food. “Do you have any regret, Nadeem?” That question comes out after a few minutes in silence.

“On what?” The boss asks.

“On us.”

Nadeem shakes his head. “I could never think of one. This thing is new. But I know I want it.”

Nathan didn’t know he holds his breath until after he breathes out. That’s enough for him to have faith in that relationship. To know that the man would never break his heart.
The rest of the morning filled with laughter and jokes between them. Each time making they grow closer. And that’s the happiness that they could wish for. It’s just been a few months. They still have a lot of time to make it stronger.

The sound of Nadeem’s phone ringing making their conversation on hold. Only after the man sees the caller’s name, something’s changed. He turns white all of a sudden. And Nathan notices this.

The phone ringing a few more second before it stops and Nadeem still freeze watching his screen. Nathan wants to ask. But he rather the man tell him himself. But nothing comes out. A few minutes passed, Nathan already opens his mouth to say something about it, but Nadeem cut him off to it.

“I’m going to work now. And I won’t be home today. Not sure. So, you better stay at your sister.”
