Chapter 7

~Edited

Noah had nodded off when they finished eating. He was still in his Buddha position with his head resting on the head board, so Julian cleared all their dishes from the bed, put them on the tray and, deposited it quietly on the floor. Slowly so he didn't wake his sleeping mate, he gently lifted his head from the head board and placed his arms underneath his legs. He lifted his body slightly so his legs were straight, before lying him back down on the bed.

Most of his scars were gone now and Julian, once again, admired his beautiful skin. He covered his mate's body with the duvet, before gently getting off the bed to return the dishes. He placed the dishes on the sink and was making his way back to his room, before his dad stopped him.

"How are you doing, son?" His dad asked from the top of the stairs.

"Fine. I'm fine," He nodded, just a few steps below his dad.

"And your mate?"

Julian couldn't help the smile that came over him, as he told his dad about what had happened during the day.

"I'll take that as 'you're okay with him'," his dad asked, referring to the fact that his mate was a guy and that would mean that he was gay.

"Yeah, dad. It's okay with me. I mean, I wouldn't care if he was a cat. He's just too cute," he smiled.

"That's good son. I told your mother and sister, and they will be coming up next weekend to see us," his dad said stepping out of the way so Julian could go back to his sleeping mate. Julian couldn't help but feel sort of sad for his dad. These last weeks had been the hardest for his dad. It was probably the longest he had ever been away from Julian's mother.

Entering the room, he couldn't help but smile at the memory of his mate during their meal. After he had finished the sandwiches, Julian had urged him to try some of the bacon and eggs as well as the toast and the hot chocolate. He had so much fun watching his mate, and hearing the little sound of pleasure he made when he tasted anything he liked before his face would become red from embarrassment.

Sitting on the bed beside him, Julian ran his fingers through Noah's hair. He had never felt anything close to this before. He felt so content and happy. The feel of his hair was silky and breezy and it lulled Julian to sleep. He stretched himself out on the bed beside Noah, but lay on the duvet just in case. Just as he made himself comfortable, Noah shifted and shuffled closer to Julian, burrowing into the crook of his neck.

At first Julian was completely still; He didn't know what to do. All day, Noah couldn't bear to be touched by him, but now he was snuggling with him. Julian smiled as he wrapped his free arm around his body and brought him closer. Noah didn't protest, he just made himself comfortable in Julian arms and continued to sleep. Julian could feel his face hurt from how much he had been smiling today.

Oh yeah. His mate was completely adorable.
