Both men walked into their private office with Link slamming the door behind them.
"Hey come on brother don't do that. " Rhett got to his chair and sat down, "Why are you so upset? Was it because I was extra touchy?"
Link found his way to his chair. He could not sit still so he started to spin the chair. Rhett let him spin for a few times. His best friend had been under so much stress. A pang of guilt hit him right in the heart, maybe it is was his endless teasing that had him slamming doors and picking small fights. Just before Rhett could turn and start looking into some GMM ideas he heard a small sniffle come from Link. Not wanting to see or hear his best friend like this he scooted himself to him. Laying his hands on Links knees he saw that tears were dropping at a fast rate.
"Link I am sorry."
"Don't be, we started this and I just can't handle it all."
"We can stop, I swear I will keep my hands off unless it is necessary."
Link looked up to him. He wiped away his tears and gave a small smile.
"No, we can't go back. I just need to calm down."
Rhett took charge and spun Link around. Having his back to him, Rhett began running his fingers in Link's hair. He gently ran them through, being blessed with small moans.
"Is this helping?"
"Hm, yes."
Rhett continued till a loud bang came from their door. Jumping away from each other the person walked in. They were sure their faces were red but they tried to act as if nothing happened.
"Chase what do you need?" Links voice was strained.
"Um there was an issue with one of the up-close cameras it looks like it might have broken." Chase shifted.
"Ok well what do you need us to do?"
Panic flooded Chase, "Well I guess I just wanted to tell you."
"You did, thanks." Link rolled his eyes and turned away from their employee.
In a kinder voice Rhett spoke to him, "Yes thank you for letting us know. I think you guys can go and get another one, right?"
With a nod Chase left the room shutting the door behind him.
"Ok Link we need to figure this out. We can not be snapping at our people." Link grunted and got up from his chair. He headed for the couch.
"I will say sorry , I promise." Right as Link was about to sit down Rhett grabbed his hand and pulled him closer.
"Yeah you can do that, but first let me show you how sorry I am." Rhett let his hands wander up to Link's face. One hand threaded in his hair while the other hand lingered on his cheek. Rhett's thumb brushed over Links bottom lip, catching his lip he pulled it down. He let it flick back into place. Repeating this Link started to push his hips towards Rhett. Feeling more then welcomed he let his mouth captured Links.
Moments became minutes and they only found bliss within each other's arms. There was room for more and they both were willing to go further. It was then they understood that something or someone was against them.
It was another loud bang that had them crash back to this world and hate almost everything about it.
"What!" Links voice was almost an octave lower and definitely strained.
It was Chase again but he stayed outside of the room, "Look guys I am so sorry but there is a problem with quite a few things down here. Really could use you guys."
Rhett gave a small push and had Link fall into the couch.
"I got this, you just rest alright?" Needing no more convincing Link nodded. "I will be right back and I will help you relax even more." With a wink Rhett left the room.
Link laid down on the couch and grabbed the blanket that was on the back. He drew it down and had something solid hit him in the stomach. Moving the blanket he saw a medium size, red leather book. He picked it up and flipped it over to read the title. He read it and ran his fingers over the gold letters.
A small whisper left his mouth, " Labyrinth."
He cracked it open and started to read out loud.
"Once upon a time there was a prince and this prince had fallen in love with someone. This was another prince with equal beauty. No one understood them, not even their families. What the young men didn't know was that a certain Goblin King had pitied the them and wanted to help."
