TOGETHER
Luke Snyder sat stiffly on the floor of the small storage unit that he was being held against his will by Zac and Zoe,, Every inch of his body ached from being tied to a steel pole with his hands tied behind his back, The only feeling he had that was pleasurable was the touch of the hand that reassuringly held his, The hand belonged to his boyfriend Noah Mayer They sat back to back to each other, bound together by rope, Their hands the only thing touching, He could feel Noah's thumb gently caressing his hand, Luke smiled to himself despite their captivity. Luke managed to put his head back so he could touch Noah's head with his own as well as his shoulder It felt nice, despite every thing, Each young man was giving the other the strength to focus on getting out of this horrible situation alive and together.
"Noah, are you awake," Noah opened his eyes slowly "Yeah, are you" Luke rubbed his boyfriends hand with his own thumb "yeah, barely, are you ok?" Yeah .I just wish I could kiss my boyfriend beautiful full lips," came the response. Luke laugh and could feel himself blush, " Yeah, same here." They sat in a comfortable silence Noah shifted and his voice broke that silence, "Hey, Snyder, The Garmaldi fortune for your thoughts. " Luke laughed, " Shut up Mayer," Noah smiled at this as he rolled his eyes " God you are so bossy Snyder.' Luke grinned, " I know, I know. Mister Bossy boots Snyder right?. But you mister Mayer love me and you know it" Noah put his head against the back of Luke's head, " yeah I guess I do at that."
Again they sat in the darkness " Noah what are you thinking of? Noah stroked the thumb of his boyfriend " The night we made love for the first time," Luke smiled " Where are you?" Noah glanced over his shoulder " In your room, watching you locking the door," Luke's mind went back to that day. " I'm there too, my hands were shaking as I locked it as you took hold of me again and kissed me. I heard you speak " Do I seem scared now?" Noah smiled "Yeah and then you whipped off your shirt and gave me that " Come and get me," look, as you whispered "No not really,"
