I couldn’t sleep. Not because I was kept awake by any actual obligation. Simply just, ugh, I wanted him. My Drew. My brother’s best friend. He had always been there for me, even when my brother and him were having one of their “bro code fights.”
I picked up the phone, dialing his number by heart.
“Drew.” I elongated the syllables when he picked up.
Andrew chuckled. I heard a rustling in the background, and I felt a little guilty for calling him while he was asleep.
“What’s up, Neil?” His voice was so fucking gravely it almost made me hard just thinking about it.
“I can’t sleep,” I whined.
He chuckled again. “Awe, poor baby.” He yawned, “want me to come over?”
I was shocked. I didn’t know how to respond to that. The line between friends and. . . something had been blurring between us recently, but it had never been this thin.
“To do what?” I asked breathily, a little stunned.
“I don’t know,” he whispered, joyously. His voice was getting dangerously dark and I couldn’t stop myself from letting out a little whimper. He caught it, of course, but we both knew he wouldn’t say anything. “We could watch a movie, cuddle, eat some snacks and laugh about geometry? Whatever helps you to sleep, prince.”
I covered my mouth, hiding the squeal of joy. “Okay, I mean, I guess, if your not busy or anything, which, if you are-”
“Prince," he cut me off.
“Y-Yes?” I stuttered.
“Stop. I don’t care if I am in the middle of finals, message me if you need something okay?”
“Okay.” I couldn’t be happier if a puppy was dropped in my lap.
“I am gonna stop at the drug store and grab a movie and some snacks. What do you want?”
“Can you get me a white monster and talkis?”
Andrew sighed, sounding like he was getting up. The familiar jingle of keys. “No prince, you need to go to sleep. What else?”
“Please?” I begged. At this point I didn’t even care about the monster, I just wanted to push. Just a little. Just to see what he would do.
“No. That’s final.” His voice was so dark. I was getting harder the more I was thinking about it.
“Yes sir,” I joked.
I couldn’t describe the sound he made if I had a whole dictionary. Something between a moan and a chuckle. “I am gonna get you a gatorade. You be a good boy and wait for sir to get there, okay?”
“Yes sir,” I whispered. I don’t think I was joking that time.
