...Tom read the instructions carefully, asking me for the right way to cut the ingredients, adding them and changing the temperature so that it would end with the right colour...
-Tom's POV.-
The potion turned out to have the perfect shade of yellow de book said, I locked my eyes on my Sub's ones, I could tell he was proud of my development as he just instructed me of how to cut the roots.
It was time for dinner, I really liked the day. Of course we had some trouble with memories, but he must tell me everything at some point. I want to help him forget whatever he has gone through and change those horrible experiences for amazing ones with me and the other three. I hugged him close, reminding him on the proses that he must eat something this time. He tried to hide his face behind his hands, he was so cute!
-You are right, Tom, the problem is that as you know I am not a huge fan of food. Well, now let's head to the kitchen. -I nod, he wasn't looking forward for food but for me... he would do anything. We head to the kitchen were we already found the table setup. Serhat was waiting for us, motioning us to take a sit and Jole had our plates served, I took a closer look. Harry's was smaller than mine, but contained every single nutrient he might need, a balanced plate. We started eating in silence. I glanced every here and then to make sure he ate it all, of course I was also asking myself why he didn't eat much. Something to do which his eye? Guess I just have to wait till he tells me.
-Harry's POV.-
Once I finished I called for Jole, my maid, though she didn't like those dresses, she found them impractical and she liked to keep her hair short. She took the plates away, neither of us wanted desserts so we chose to go to my room, have a shower and sleep at last. It is strange to have my eye uncovered, I've had it since I was four, when Mortis gave it to me once I died. It is strange to have it off. I still reached for the 'ribbon'. Well, we decided to take turns to enter the shower. Basically because I fear he might leave me alone, I cannot risk that. I am so scarred and mutilated at my eyes...I don't know why he loves me, he is amazing, takes care of me and not much people has been like that in my live. He is so precious for me, I can't loose him now.
I entered the shower once he had finished. I took a look at his figure. He was slim, but of course he was nine years old, he still had some muscle, his hair was watery his eyes fixed on mine and I could feel the typical hot-rush in my body, making my cheeks to blush. I was redder than a tomato. He smiled at me and signed me with his head to enter the bathroom and take a shower. I took everything I needed with me. I was out in less than ten minutes. I sat on my far-too-big-bed beside my Dom. He pushed me towards his chest, making my head to use it as a pillow, his head was on my shoulders and he kissed me lightly on my head. I am so happy to have me, hope my other mates will care about me just as much as him. I sight happily and kissed his nose.
-Good night, Tom -I told him before I was taken by Morfeo to dreamland, though I felt how he pecked my lips and whispered the same words I told him.
-Tom's POV.-
I wrapped my arms around his waist and stare at his asleep figure, he is so young. He couldn't enjoy his childhood if his damaged eye was something to go by, I am so sorry. The way I acted around when we first met was anything but good, he is a little creature in need of a family, in need of love and I promised to myself that I will definitely give him both. My eyelashes were heavy and tiredness grew in me. I kissed his cheek one last time, before I succumbed to my tiredness, feeling strangely happy and thinking that he is an amazing teacher.
I felt how someone thing was hissing in pain and some movements coming beside me, at first I didn't care and tried to go back to sleep, ignoring what was happening around me. I covered my ears with my pillow, I found I had my moves somewhat restricted but I managed to get the other end of the pillow and covered my head with it. Some minutes passed and the annoying hissing stopped, finally! I thought and quickly went back to sleep. Though I remembered that I was not in my claustrophobic room in a dark orphanage. I mentally punched myself. I noticed that a lot of time have passed, have I seriously been debating with myself about finding out where the noise came from and sleep? Nearly an hour!
I reached for were my love was supposed to be sleeping. I found no body next to me, I started panicking. I got up as if the room was set up on fire and got out of bed. I should have tried and found where the damn noise was coming from! I could gave hurt him again! I heard a loud 'Bang!' coming from the dining room, I run al, the way down the stairs jumping through them, I nearly felt down with the rushing. I found everything in silence, though one light was coming from the room I believe to be a little library. I slowly reached for it. I took some cautious steps in. There I found his sleeping figure on the couch, his arms were wrapped around him, making him look smaller. His face was tear stained and a book was on the floor. I caught a blanket and sat next to me l him. His body adjusted itself to the new position, I put the blanket on us so our bodies were totally covered. I hope he forgives me.
