AN:
Before the chapter starts I want to thank ShiningOpal & CrystalFeather0900 for their comments!
Also, this chapter is a flashback! The next few chapters will be as well. I wanna show you the beginning of this complicated relationship I'll write about in this story, but I'm not going all the way back as you can see in this chapter. There are already feelings between A & M and I'll continue from there on.
Please tell me any mistake you find, I'm still learning English and really wanna improve. =)
Also leave me a comment, please, I don't mind constructive critique. The more comments, the sooner I'll update. ;)

For You

Chapter 1:
With a Touch

(A few months previously)

"Adam, are you ready?"

Jerome's voice echoed through the house and upstairs to Adam, who currently stood in front of the mirror beside his bed. Everyone else was already waiting for him at the stairs, including the camera team, but he just couldn't fix this damn tie.
"Give me one more minute!" he shouted back over his shoulder and turned around again to take another look at the mess he'd made. Before his hands could untie the knot and throw the tie out of the window, another person appeared in his room.

"You do realize that you said the exact same thing five minutes ago?"

Abruptly he turned around again and saw a smiling Canadian leaning against the open door. He had put his hands in his pockets and his jacket was open, revealing a blue shirt over his white one. "Mitch. What are you doing here?" Adam asked mildly surprised, while the light brown haired boy came over to him. The big smile still rested on his face, as he replied, "I'm obviously helping you."
When he stopped in front of Adam, Mitch raised an eyebrow and added, "Not good with ties, are you?"

Before Adam could force out an answer, Mitch raised his hands and untied the knot for him easily. "Okay, let's see," he muttered concentrated, turned up Adam's collar and began to knot the tie. In a flowing movement his hands formed a perfect tie and not a minute later he leaned forward to fix the collar. "There you go, it's not that hard, isn't it?"
As soon as Mitch looked up to the unusually quite Adam, he frowned and stopped his hands. "Are you alright?" he asked concerned and scrutinized his red face.

"Sure, ehm, thanks," Adam replied with a broken voice, tried to clear his throat and looked away. Mitch's concern would have been cute, if he wouldn't have been the reason for his sudden nervousness. And to make it even worse, Mitch saw through him in an instant.
At first he didn't react at all. Cautiously Adam glanced back at Mitch, who studied him for another second with an expressionless face, before he chuckled amused. "Oh, am I too close to you?" he said teasingly and closed the gap between them. Adam tried to back away from Mitch, but the wall stopped him. His heart began to beat faster and he couldn't take his eyes off of Mitch, while he felt the heat of his body.

To be honest, Adam had no idea, what exactly was going on.
It was a nice gesture of Mitch to help him with the tie, nothing more.
But then the sudden closeness between them and Mitch's soft fingers at his neck had erased every sane thought in his mind.
Had the eyes of the Canadian always been so bright?

"Mitch, can you please stop doing this?" he begged helplessly and tried to look away again, but Mitch gave him no chance to do so. "Sorry, no can do. This situation is way to amusing right now."
"Why are you enjoying this so much?" Adam asked bummed and made the mistake to look back into the Canadian's eyes. A low chuckle escaped his lips, as he leaned forward and trapped Adam between his arms. Mitch's hands rested against the wall, while he leaned further forward and got dangerously close to Adam's exposed throat.

"Maybe I'm enjoying this – whatever it is – so much, because I can't stand your sad face since Dawn left you."
His voice got deeper and more serious. The smile disappeared from his face.

"Because I really like your flustered face right now."
A hungry shine filled his eyes. Different. Not as cautious as usual.

"Because I tried to ignore this tension for weeks, but I'm sick of it."
Adam could no longer see his face. Mitch leaned forward again and he tensed his muscles under the jacket.

"Because you have to admit, Adam, that there is something between us."
He stopped breathing, as Mitch's lips brushed against his throat. A whimper escaped his own lips, as he closed his eyes and felt the burning spot on his skin. Even though Adam couldn't see his face, he felt the smile on Mitch's lips, while they were firmly planted on his throat.
"You can't-" His voice was barely audible, as he tried to stop the Canadian. "Please, Mitch, stop-"

"You feel it too, do you?"
Adam forced himself not to reply.
"Let me prove it to you."

Before Mitch could plant his lips on Adam's, another voice interrupted them.
"What the heck are you guys doing up there? Can we please start with the photos already?"
The emotion-filled moment was over and Adam desperately freed himself of Mitch. Without another word or a glance back Adam left the room.

And so he missed the determined and serious look on Mitch's face.
"Just wait, Adam. I'll prove it to you."
