Kevin sits in bed reading his book. He has almost reached the end and doesn't want to go to sleep until it's finished. Scotty fell asleep almost half an hour ago, now peacefully snoring next to him, his hand places on Kevin's thigh.
Kevin loves Scotty's snores. They're soft and warm, just like his voice. They sound so happy and serene. Sometimes he moans a bit, usually before creeping closer to Kevin. The hand on his thigh moves a bit, but stays put.
Kevin watches Scotty sleep. His eyes travel from Scotty's closed eyes and down his nose. His perfect nose, round and cute, and totally kissable. His full lips, and the slight smile. Speak of kissable… His chin. It's masculine and yet delicate. The stubble on it sends shivers down Kevin's spine when they kiss. His cheekbones. Those cheekbones! Kevin can stare at them forever. His long eye lashes are spread out under his eyes, still like they are waiting to wake up so they can follow the eye lid when it opens and closes.
The lines around his eyes that appear when he smiles are now gone, straightened out from the sleep. His forehead is soft and warm, begging to be stroked. Kevin stares at the face of the man beside him, and he feels his own body get warm. He didn't even know he could love a person this much, and how he ever allowed himself to let Scotty walk out of his life – multiple times – he was a fool.
He wants to take all of Scotty's worries and fears and hide them away, just putting his own arms around his body, holding him tight when he is sad, laughing with him when he is happy and look into his eyes when they say 'I love you' to each other. Kevin is so proud. Scotty is so strong and so wonderful. He has managed things that Kevin never would have made it through and now he is here, next to Kevin because he loves him.
Kevin puts his hand on Scotty's and the smile on Scotty's face seems to grow a bit. Kevin closes his book, not caring he has two pages left. He slides under the cover, careful not to wake up Scotty. He feels an arm around him immediately, knowing Scotty puts it there automatically when he feels Kevin in front of him. Kevin closes his eyes and feels Scotty's breath against his neck. Slow, peaceful and safe.
