AN: So I decided I needed to upload SOMETHING! So I posted what I have. Its supper short but I PROMISE (Pinkey swear even) that I will have the rest up later! Ch. 3 Leo's POV My hand hovered on his face, I was frozen, I just laid there and stared into his eyes and for a time he seemed content to do the same. He made the first move; he pulled my hand from his face gently, no more that three inches, and instead of dropping it disgustedly as I had expected him to he just held it there and continued to look at me. We both just laid there entangled together on the couch, one mess of blanket and popcorn bits just staring. It had to have been at least ten minutes that we laid like that, completely still, unmoving. I could still feel Nico's breath blowing lightly across my face. My eyes drifted shut as I slowly relaxed. Nico's POV I thought I knew better, I shouldn't have done it, but after waking up like that I knew I couldn't hold back much longer. As soon as I saw his eyes close I took my chance. Leaning forward as slowly as possible, clutching his had just a bit tighter. Our noses brushed and he opened his eyes. I knew then that no matter how this ended I wanted this moment, even if I was setting myself up for disaster I would go back and take this chance over and over if it only meant I got to do it at least once. The pounding in my ears had never been louder, my heart moving faster than the wings of a humming bird. I had felt fear many times in my life, never like this had I been so scared. I had to do it now or I would back out and miss my only chance. I brushed my lips over his in what could only be compared to the kiss of a ghost, just enough to let him know what I was thinking. I pulled away slightly and waited for some kind of reaction. I waited, and waited, and waited just a bit longer. The reaction I got was not one I had been expecting; Leo let go of my hand, gently taking hold of the side of my face, he kissed me. Not the almost kiss I had given him but a real kiss, our lips fit together perfectly, moving against each other slightly. Using the term I had 'died and gone to heaven' didn't cover how I felt in the slightest. No, I was not in heaven I had found heaven and every thing that could possibly be better. One of his arms moved around my waist, the other slipped from my face into my hair. I laid one of my hands on his warm, bare, chest and looped my other arm around his neck. I had kissed a few people before. Most of them were just random guys in clubs I got dragged into by some of the crazy people I ran into. But this was so different! I was finally kissing someone I had actual intrest in, maybe a lot more than simple intrest, and I was a total trembling sloppy mess… Leo pulled away slightly; "So I guess this is the part where we actually talk about this….?" "Truthfully, I really wouldn't mind just skipping this part…." I laughed a bit nervously, he laughed too. "NIco…. Ni, NIco, I think,... I- I think I mightbein Lo- Nikey… IthinkIloveyou…." He was breathing heavy and had turned his face away when he finally finished. I took me a minuet to figure out what he had said. He was still looking at the wall so I leaned forwards a bit and kissed his cheek before whipering into his ear; "Leo… I'm pretty Gawd Damn sure, that I love you too…." He whipped his head back around in surpirse. We were nose-to-nose again. I looked into his eyes, took a deep breath, and spilled everything I had felt to him. "...Leo,I came back for you. I honest to God couldn't live without you…" My vission blurred and I blinked a few times before I realized I was crying. Leo's POV "Oh my gods. Nickey!" I pulled him into a tight hug and kissed the top of his head. "Nickey, what happend after you left?" "Um….ah, can we not talk about it?" He could hardy even get the words out, he sounded scared. I nuzzled my nose into his hair; "Sure thing, babe." We both frose when we realized what I had said. shet how could I take something like that back! SHIT! But Nico didn't seem too alarmed, he just snuggled closer and said thanks. I relaxed and we cuddled for a few minutes untill I Heard a monautonus beebing echoing from my room. My alarm clock…. shit. I had work. I groaned and sat up half way befor I looked down at Nico's almost sleeping face. "Ill call in sick." I slumped back down and ressumed cuddling my Nickey.
