"I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love comes tumbling down"

Kian knocked lightly on Mark’s door. A muffled "Who is it?" came from the inside, before the door opened slightly.

"Edward Scissorhands." Kian grinned. "You’re a deutz, you know. Who did you think it’d be?" Mark smiled and opened the door to let his friend in.

"I just didn’t expect you so soon." He said as he gestured towards the mini bar.

Kian shook his head. "I’d prefer to remember this. Shane just fell asleep very quickly today – poor lamb!"

Mark nodded as he walked over to sit down beside Kian on the bed. "Yeah, he’s been kinda tired lately, hasn’t he?"

Kian nodded absentmindedly, then shrugged. "It wasn’t to talk about Shane that I came over though."

"I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
When there is no one else around"

Mark nodded as he reached out to touch Kian’s face. "Yeah, I know…"

Kian smiled and cocked his head to the side so his lips touched the tips of Mark’s fingers, nibbling slightly. Mark moaned softly before he leaned forward to kiss Kian.

"Mmmm… You’re a good kisser."

Mark blushed. "You too."

Kian flashed a smile that made Mark turn to jelly. "So, you really want this?"

Mark nodded. "Of course."

"I'm gonna take and I'm gonna hold
Do all the things I've told
In the midnight hour, in the midnight hour"

Kian pushed Mark so he softly fell back on the bed, laying on top off him and kissing him again. Mark felt his body respond, he already knew what was to come. Every word, action and image in Kian’s e- mails were edged into his mind.

Kian descended a bit and nibbled on Mark’s neck. He was glad about the laptops they had been given. For obvious reasons, that were unknown to the others, Kian and Mark used them to most. It had all started with a joke when Kian was feeling horny. Not guessing that Mark could be very naughty he had been shocked when Mark replied. He didn’t know how many times he had wanked over Mark’s words now… and tonight those words were to be put into actions…

"I'm gonna wait till the stars come out
To see the twinkle in your eyes"

Mark watched the twinkle in Kian’s eyes as he came down from the amazing high he had been on. Kian smiled dazily. "That was fucking fantastic!"

Mark kissed him. "It takes two."

Kian put his arms around Mark’s waist. "We should do this again."

Mark nodded. "Definitely."

"I'm gonna wait till the midnight hour
That's when my love begins to shine"

They were silent for a long while, just laying there, breathing heavily, listening to each other’s heartbeat.

Finally, Mark sighed. "I think I love you."

Kian blinked. "Huh?"

"I said-"

"Yeah, yeah, I heard that. Just… really?"

Mark nodded. "Uhu."

Silence followed.

"You're the only one I know
That really loves me so
In the midnight hour, in the midnight hour"

It took a while until Mark realised that Kian was crying.

"God, Kian, are you alright? Did I do something?!"

Kian managed to shake his head. "No…"

Mark pulled Kian a bit closer. "Than what’s wrong?"

Kian sniffed. "No one… no one’s ever said they loved me before…"

Mark was amazed. "Really?"

"Yeah. I mean, my mum does. And Shane does, but that’s just cause he’s my best friend. But you…"

Mark smiled and pulled Kian into him, kissing his tears away. "Kian, you little deutz, you almost scared me there!"

Kian smiled. "I’m sorry."

"You’re forgiven. But…" Mark’s eyes had a naughty twinkle.

"But what?"

Mark kissed him. "You’ll see.... just you wait…"

"Midnight, midnight midnight, tonight"
