“Is Chinese takeaway okay with you?” Morin asked Nysys. Nysys nodded without even looking his way and Morin sighed. He didn’t know what else he could do to make the man trust him. Today was even worse. Morin didn’t know who Nysys had called that morning, but ever since, he’d been closed off and silent.
Morin placed their order and hung up. Nysys was still sitting on the couch, his eyes riveted on the window, his arms around his legs, hugging them close to his chest. It was obvious that something was troubling him, so Morin sat next to him on the couch. When Nysys didn’t react, he reached out and touched one of the man’s knees.
Nysys startled and scrambled backward, his eyes huge and full of fear. Morin held his hands up, hoping it would be enough to make Nysys understand he wasn’t trying to hurt him. “Hey, sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you.”
Nysys nodded and pressed his palm over his chest. His hand was trembling, and when Morin looked down he saw that the other one was, too. He slowly reached for it, his focus on Nysys’ face to check he wasn’t scaring him even more. Nysys still looked scared, but he didn’t move away. Morin took his hand in both of his and stroked his thumb over the smooth skin. “What’s wrong?” he murmured, hoping not to scare the man he’d come to like so much.
“Nothing.”
“Why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost, hon?”
Nysys shook his head. “I can’t...”
Morin raised his hand and kissed Nysys’. “You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to, but I hope you know I’m there if you want to talk.”
“Why?”
Morin gave Nysys a small smile. “Because I like you, Nysys. But you already knew that.”
“How can you like me?”
“How can I not? You’re smart, full of life, gentle and nice. Not to mention so very pretty.”
Nysys blushed and Morin relished the reaction. That was what he’d been looking for, and it was working. Nysys’ tension slowly relaxed as they talked.
“But I’m weird. I’m no good.”
“I won’t deny you’re one of a kind, but I don’t think it’s a bad thing. I like it, hon. I like your hair, your tattoos, your piercings. Even your clothes.”
Nysys chuckled. “No one likes my clothes, not even me.”
“Why do you wear them, then?”
Nysys hesitated. He stayed silent for a few moments, then tugged on Morin’s hands with his. Morin let Nysys guide him without protesting, knowing the man had to feel comfortable before he started to talk. Morin didn’t know what Nysys was going to tell him, but it was obvious it wouldn’t be something nice.
Nysys pushed him against the back of the couch and Morin followed his lead. He reclined and watched as Nysys laid down and put his head on Morin’s lap, his face turned toward the rest of the room rather than toward Morin. Nysys grabbed one of Morin’s hands and held it close to his chest while Morin put the other one on the couch next to his own leg.
