When I wake up, the morning is dull and dreary with an overcast sky and a wind that batters against the house as if itâs trying to get in. I shuffle downstairs in my boxers, yawning so widely my jaw creaks. The house is quiet. No music playing, no clattering pans or tuneless humming, so Blue is definitely at work. He has a way of filling the house with little noises, and I love knowing that heâs somewhere close by, and Iâll see him any second.
There havenât been any strange noises or occurrences since the night of the smudging, but heâs still been sleeping with me. After the old manâs revelations about the possible danger of Blue staying in this house, I didnât think he should be anywhere near that strange room.
As if by silent agreement, nothing has happened between us since that kiss on the street. I donât want him to feel obligated to please me like Iâm some version of one of his old customers. That decision has been made immeasurably more difficult due to the fact that each night heâs slept in his briefs and my T-shirt that heâs taken a liking to. The same briefs that hug his narrow hips and show off that long, lean body. And the same T-shirt that makes some caveman part of me love how itâs my clothes that are keeping him warm.
Instead of shagging, weâve lain peacefully in the silent bedroom. Itâs been a haven lit by warm lamplight as weâve read our books and discussed anything that seemed relevant. Heâs related incidents from his day at work, and weâve laughed.
And when Iâve switched the light out, heâs snuggled into my side. Rather than rolling away or telling him no, Iâve wrapped my arms around him and felt him fall asleep. Theyâre the tamest nights Iâve ever spent, yet theyâve felt far more intimate than if weâd spent our time in the bed fucking. I like that intimacy far more than I should.
However, while heâs slept peacefully when weâve switched the light out, I havenât. Whichever position Iâve lain in, Blue has ended up snuggling into me, almost pinning me to the bed.
Iâd lain awake for hours last night, my cock throbbing in my underwear and the scent of peaches in my nostrils and my arms full of him. Iâd finally fallen asleep at dawn this morning and hadnât noticed when heâd got up. Iâd woken very late to a note telling me heâd gone to work with lots of exclamation marks that made me smile.
In the kitchen, I set about making tea and putting on some toast while the radio plays. When âRed Light Spells Dangerâ by Billy Ocean comes on, I make an automatic move to switch it off. This was my mumâs favourite song. She used to dance around the kitchen with me to it when I was little, both of us doing silly dance moves and laughing so hard weâd end up bent double.
