TK awoke with a start, he was trembling and in a cold sweat, for some reason his breathing was heavy. The room was still dark, the only light coming from the clock on the bedside table. He could feel Davis beside him shuffling in his sleep. The only sound he could hear was the rapid beating of his heart.
"What is this. Why am I shaking?" TK thought as he got off the bed. He quickly got dressed and headed to the window. He looked back at Davis before he crept outside.
...
Matt opened the door with a dazed look in his face trying to figure out who was knocking at four in the morning.
"I need your help!" He heard the voice say. They sounded almost in tears. He knew the voice and his blurry eyes started to focus. He saw TK standing there shaking.
"What's wrong TK. Come inside." Matt said worried.
...
"Here." Matt said handing a cup of cocoa to TK as he sat down across from his brother.
"Th…thanks." TK mumbled.
"So what's wrong? You look scared." Matt asked.
"I'm surprised Tai isn't here complaining." TK said dodging the question and taking a sip of the cocoa.
"He's still asleep. He'll sleep through an earthquake. Now tell me what's wrong." Matt said.
"I wish I could." TK said softly.
"Common Teeks, I'm your brother. You can tell me anything." Matt said.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you. It's that I can't." TK replied.
"What do you mean?" Matt asked confused.
"I'm not entirely sure what's wrong myself. All I know is that I felt the need to come see you." TK said softly. He could see he was still shaking and his heart rate hadn't slowed down a bit.
"Well is everything all right at Davis' place?" Matt asked.
"Yeah everything is great. He's been feeding me, washing my clothes, making sure I go to sleep on time. If I weren't dating him I'd think he was our mother." TK joked.
"Wait, what?" Matt said taken aback.
"He's been feeding me, washing my clothes and making sure I sleep." TK repeated himself not realizing why Matt was shocked.
"When did you start dating Davis?" Matt asked unable to contain how dumbfounded he sounded.
"What I never…" TK trailed off as he realized what he had said. Suddenly Matt started laughing.
"What's so funny?" TK demanded.
"Nothing. Nothing." Matt said trying to stop.
"Matt common this is serious. I can't stop shaking, I'm having cold sweats, my heart is racing." TK said worried.
"Have you and Davis done anything yet?" Matt asked regaining his composure. TK blushed a deep red color.
"That...that is none of your business." He said flustered.
"So you guys have. How was it." Matt said in a serious tone.
"If you must know it was awkward and clumsy. He's never been with a guy so he bit me a few times." TK said.
"And how did it feel when he bit you, or better yet how did it feel different then what you did when you were living in that alley." Matt said.
"I don't know. I felt weird, I had no control over myself and I hated that, but he was so sweet about the whole thing." TK mumbled.
"And…" Matt said pushing him further.
"I don't know. I felt safe I guess. Like even if I messed something up he'd be there." TK said.
"Common TK think what else. Think back, what were you thinking, what were you feeling when you two were together." Matt pushed.
"I…I don't know. I was thinking how stupid I was for attacking him. I was feeling… I don't know what I was feeling. Guilt I guess. I just kept thinking how he must hate me, how sad I would be if he hated. I just thought I didn't want him to hate me because I lo…" TK stopped at those words.
"Common TK you can say it. You've held everything thing in for so long. Just give into your feelings. Say it." Matt encouraged him.
"I…I…I lo… I love Davis." TK stammered out.
"And that's why you're having these problems. Your heart is racing because it realized before you did. Your lack of sleep, the cold sweats, the shaking. It's all because you refused what you really wanted. It was tearing you apart." Matt said.
"I… I have to go." TK whispered. Matt smiled and gave his brother a small nod.
...
TK ran the entire way back to Davis' house. He could have set a world record for how quickly he got there. He fell through the window landing with a loud thud causing Davis to bolt upright in the bed. As he turned on the lamp beside him TK flew at him embracing him tightly. Davis felt a dampness on his shirt. TK was crying.
"What…what's wrong?" Davis asked stunned.
"Davis I like you." TK spat out nervously.
"I… I know buddy. Why were you out so late?" Davis asked.
"No you don't understand Davis. I woke up and my heart was racing. I was shaking so I went and saw Matt and we talked and I told him and he made me say something but now I can't say it and I really want to…" TK babbled. Suddenly Davis kissed him.
"Calm down TK."'Davis said. TK took a deep breath.
"Davis… I realized after talking with Matt that I don't just like you. I've fallen in love with you." TK said. Davis looked stunned, and slightly confused.
"Please say something." TK pleaded looking at Davis with puppy dog eyes. All Davis could think of was to kiss him.
