Hi guys here's a new update. I'm going to try to keep this in better perspective but it might switch a little.

Marco woke up, nestled next to Tom in his bed. One of Tom's hands was against his head, and the other was around his torso, pulling him into a tight hug. Marco's face was buried in Tom's shirt, Marco moved a little so he could see Tom's face. Tom was still asleep, little breaths moved his chest in and out, gently rocking Marco's head. Marco remembered last night before bed and felt himself go deep crimson, silently thanking whatever force was keeping Tom asleep. Marco wiggled a bit, hoping to be free of Tom's embrace. Tom didn't let go, snuggling Marco closer to him. Marco inwardly squeaked, his eyes widening at the loving hug. Tom sighed deeply, his breath warming the top of Marco's head. Tom looked so content to lay and hug Marco all day. Wherever Tom was touching him, Marco was warm, the heat spreading all throughout his body. Marco decided to just lay and wait for Tom to wake up, closing his eyes again, he tried to fall back asleep. Marco found falling asleep with Tom, easier than falling asleep normally, the warmth gently taking him to sleep. Feeling safe and knowing Tom was asleep, Marco admitted.

"I love you too Tom."


Tom smiled, feeling Marco wake up beside him. Marco slightly moved his head. Tom felt him wriggle around and Tom snuggled Marco closer hearing Marco squeak lightly, Tom took in the smell of Marco and let it out savoring this time. Marco melted back to sleep, relaxing into Tom's arms.

"I love you too Tom," Marco said.

Tom stiffened, shocked, he opened his eyes to stare down at Marco. Tom looked at him, then started to comb his hair with his fingers, smoothing it down. Marco opened his eyes at this movement, looking up at Tom and turning a bright shade of red. Tom smiles gently, amused by Marco's embarrassment, Marco shoves his head back into Tom's shirt and asks.

"Have you been awake this whole time?" Marco asks his voice muffled by Tom's shirt.

"No, but I was awake when you woke up," Tom says with a grin. Marco wraps his arms around Tom, taking a deep breath before looking at Tom again. Marco smiles, lifting his head he looks at the clock. It was a bit later in the morning. Marco sat up and wrapped himself in the covers. Tom ruffled Marco's hair and stood up, stretching. The demon went over to a small kitchenette in the corner of his room, picking up two pieces of bread and promptly making them into toast. When Tom turned around Marco was looking sad.

"What's wrong, Marco?" Tom asked wondering if the human was cold.

"I'm okay with our relationship now, but how do we make this not awkward in front of Star?" Marco asked, looking up at Tom. Tom had completely forgotten about the "happy go lucky" friend of theirs. He could count on Marco to remember anything he forgot.

"U-um, honestly I haven't given that any thought," He said handing Marco a piece of toast. Marco took a bite, furrowing his brows. Tom sat down next to Marco on his bed. Wrapping the smaller boy in a hug, he kissed him on the cheek. Marco smiled, leaning into Tom's hug, snuggling into Tom's warmth.

"I guess we just go with the flow" Marco says, turning to face Tom.

I don't really know where I was going with this chapter, I just wanted to get in the scene where Marco wakes up. Anything else I write will be during their relationship (hopefully)
