K: Well, yet another story...

And I guess you know it by now...: Enjoy: )

First kiss

By: K

Painwaves were shooting through his body.

Lying limp on the bed. Silent tears escaping his eyes.

How could they expect him to bare these tortures? Even after all these years, he was still not used to it. He was only thirteen… Still so young, yet he had to endure the worst pain. Still a kid, but he knew perfectly well what could and what not. What he wanted. Oh yes, he knew what he wanted, or better, who he wanted… But he could not have him… Or could he?

He closed his eyes. Pain washing over him again.

What had he done to deserve this punishment? He could not come on with an answer. Except that Boris wanted to hurt him. To enjoy himself…

Suddenly two careful arms encircled him.

Lavender met ice-blue. Sad, hurted eyes. Of the both of them.

The lilac-haired boy rested his head on the redhead's shoulder. His arms returning the gentle embrace.

Tala and Bryan were friends from the first moment they met in the Abbey. They both knew how good it was to have a real friend in this hell. Both boys were more mature than any one should have to be at their age.

The Falcon closed his eyes, taking in the Wolf's scent.

His voice was a hoarse whisper.

"Tal…"

The ice-blue eyed kid just held him closer. Careful hands gently rubbing the other's back.

He knew what Bryan wanted to say. His thoughts flying back to a year ago…

They both couldn't sleep. However the lilac-haired boy had his eyes closed, the Wolf knew he was just pretending. Silently the redhead climbed out of his bed. Carefully he slit under the covers next to his friend. One arm draped loosely over the boy's belly. His head resting on his chest. Bryan didn't open his eyes. He was used by now that Tala would snuggle up next to him if he couldn't sleep. His hand started to gently stroke the redhead's hair. He knew Boris had been hard on him today, because he lost a training fight against Spencer. His steady heartbeat and the soft caress made the blue-eyed boy fall asleep. And Bryan's mind had started to wander off. He finally realized what it was that he felt for his friend. It was more than just a strong friendship. Much more. But up 'till a month later, he had not dared to tell Tala.

The redhead softly shook his head. One of his hands leaving the Falcon's back to gently stroke the lilac hair.

A sad smile graced his lips.

'A month ago I said I needed time to think. Well, I made up my mind. Thanks Bry. For staying at my side. All this time. For not pushing me. For just being there for me. For giving me the time I needed…'

I turn my head, gently nuzzling your neck.

A very soft moan escapes your lips.

"Tal, you'd better not get too close, or I might really end up kissing you…"

I smile when I hear your soft whispered words.

"But what if I want you to kiss me, Bry?"

You look up at me. Your lavender eyes fixed on my ice-blue ones. Trying to find out what I want. The pain seems to be forgotten.

And slowly, ever so slowly, you move your face towards mine.

Eyes slitting shut.

His soft lips brushing over mine. Like a feather's touch.

Sensing that I don't plan on pulling away, he opens his mouth. His tongue licking my lower lip. Asking for entrance witch I give him without a second hesitation.

Our first kiss. It was pure heaven.

The End
