The Bodyguard's Duty ✅

Chapter 34 - Fear Of Doubt

*Extended chapter

~~~~~~~~~~

Thomas had the TV on the background as he was doing some work on the laptop he borrowed from Ethan. Sitting in the living room, Thomas was on the couch as he was watching the newest recruitment video for the company.

Ethan was sitting besides him as he was playing a game on his phone. It was just a simple colouring in game that Ethan found surprisingly relaxing, and he enjoyed playing it whenever he needed to relieve himself from stress.

Ethan eventually put his phone down when he soon got bored. He peered over Thomas' shoulder and rested his chin on it, looking at whatever Thomas was watching.

Thomas gently nudged Ethan with an amused smile on his face. "Can I help you?"

Ethan pouted as he turned his head to look at Thomas. "I'm bored."

"Maybe you should do some work?" Thomas teased as he went back to watching the video.

Ethan was in a playful mood as he hit spacebar on the laptop, which paused the video, and resulting in Thomas turning his attention back to the needy Ethan.

Thomas combined his second and third finger, and used it to push Ethan on the forehead. A little extra force was used as Ethan was knocked towards the back of the couch, making Thomas smirk in response at his own childish antics.

"Jerk face." Ethan muttered.

Thomas was forcing himself to ignore Ethan because he wanted to finish watching the end of the recruitment video. He really needed to analyse it, and see if certain information needed to be included in the final edit.

Ethan huffed as he moved back besides Thomas, and moved the laptop away from him. Ethan closed the laptop shut and carefully placed it on the table.

Thomas was ready to complain about Ethan distracting him from his work, but it was soon silenced when Ethan began to invade his personal space. After pushing Thomas to lie down on the couch, Ethan had a devilish grin on his face as he sought out a kiss from Thomas.

"See... If you just told me you wanted to make out, then I would have happily obliged." Thomas laughed.

Ethan shrugged his shoulders as he was shameless about his actions. "Meh, same end results."

Ethan was teasing Thomas by bringing his face inches away from him. Ethan was testing the bodyguard's patience by forcing him to make the first move.

Thomas saw right through this act as he kept his poker face on. He turned the pressure on by wrapping his arms around Ethan's shoulders, holding him close without their lips touching.

It was a pointless battle where there were more losers than winners, because both of them were craving the touch of the other person.

Ethan was the one that gave in first. His smile was sweet when he placed the most gentle kiss on Thomas' lips. When the same level of smile was returned by Thomas, Ethan's inner fire was ignited as he possessively crashed his lips against Thomas.

Thomas pulled Ethan's entire body closer to him as they were both laying down together on the couch. They rolled slightly so that they were both on their sides, and that was when Thomas slid one hand to firmly hold Ethan's waist.

One spine tingling kiss after another, Ethan became more adventurous as he wanted more, he needed more. The hand that was once on Thomas' shoulder began to slide down his firm back, and with every passing minute it eventually slipped into Thomas' back pocket.

Thomas felt a slight squeezing pressure from Ethan, and this surprising action made Thomas pull back very slightly. "Wha-"

Ethan pushed himself forward so that he could capture Thomas' lips once again. This tactic of silencing Thomas worked briefly as Ethan felt Thomas' hands began to firmly cling onto him.
