| Chapter 41 |
| Lance was the first to awaken and just looked at Josh and thought about yesterday and smiled, Josh was never that playful and never started playfights. Lance was brought out of his thoughts when he felt the most softest lips he had ever known graze across his neck. "Morning Josh." Lance said smiling. "Mmmm good morning Lance." Josh said back as he moved his head and brushed his lips against Lance's and smiled at him. Lance covered Josh's lips with his own and almost rolled on top of him but stopped when he remembered Josh was hurt. Josh broke the kiss and asked, "What are we doing today?" Lance sighed, "I don't know. What do you wanna do?" Josh smiled and looked up shyly at Lance, "Remember when you took me to, to the amusement arcade on," Josh smiled, "On our first date?" Lance felt butterflys in his stomach and his heart swelled; that was a day he would never forget, "Yes." Josh smiled at Lance and asked, "I'd like to do that again if, if we can." Lance smiled and nuzzled Josh's cheek with his, "If that's what you want to do then that's what we'll do." "Really?" Josh asked with barely concealed excitement in his voice but you could see it in his eyes; you can see every emotion in Josh's eyes. "Yes. Anything to make you happy Josh." Lance stated smiling as Josh's eyes lit up with happiness and love. Josh layed his head on Lance's chest and smiled as Lance ran his fingers through his hair. "Do you want something to eat babe?" Lance asked as he tickled Josh behind his ear causing him to giggle a sound Lance loved and cherished whenever he heard it. "Yeah I'm hungry." "Well let me make you something while you shower." Lance said as he got up. "Lance?" Lance turned around while he pulled up his sweat pants, "Yeah?" Josh looked a little embarassed, "Erm how am I gonna shower?" Lance bit his lip thinking, "I'll put everything where you can easily reach it, that ok?" "Yeah that's fine." Josh said as he got up and followed Lance into the bathroom where Lance put everything Josh needed on the shelf and even put the towels where Josh could easilly reach them. Josh wrapped his arms around Lance and kissed him sweetly, "Thank you." Lance smiled into Josh's beautiful blue eyes, "No problem." Lance went downstairs and smiled when he saw Joey, Chris and Justin crashed on the couch, he went into the kitchen and got everything out of the fridge; bacon, eggs, bread, fruit and orange juice. He started making everything how Josh liked it and had the table set and everything ready by the time Josh came down. Josh walked in and smiled, he looked up at Lance with a look of pure love, "You did this for me?" Lance walked over to Josh and wrapped his arms around him, "Anything for you Kitten." Josh smiled and took Lance's lips in a sweet kiss. Lance moaned then broke the kiss and said, "Let's eat." They sat down and eat most of the food until Joey, Chris and Justin wanded in bleary-eyes and hungry. "What we doing today?" Joey asked. Lance smiled as Josh moved to sit in his lap, "If you guys don't mind; and I don't think you will, Josh wants to go to the amusement arcade, you guys ok with that?" "I'm cool with it." Justin agreed as he grabbed a bagel. "Fine by me." Joey agreed as picked up a few peices of bacon. "I'm cool. I haven't been to an amusement arcade since forever." Chris said. Lance smiled and said, "Ok. We'll leave around noon and stay there for most of the day. Cool?" "Yeah that's cool by me." Josh agreed smiling at Lance. "It's cool." Justin, Joey and Chris agreed. They finished their breakfast then they all went upstairs and changed into comfortable clothes. An hour later they all met downstairs; dressed and ready to go. "You ready?" Lance asked as he grabbed his car keys. "Yep." Josh replied grinning. Lance smiled at Josh and kissed him, "No rides remember, your still healing." Josh rolled his eyes, "I know. I'll be good; only games." Lance smiled, "Good. Now let's go." Chris saluted him, "Yes sir." Joey grinned, "Yes Sgt Bass, Sir." Justin rolled his eyes, Lance laughed and shook his head and Josh just laughed at them. "Sgt Bass may we leave sir?" Josh said before dissolving into giggles. Lance laughed and pushed them all out the door and locked up, he got in the car and made sure everyone was buckled up before driving off. 20 minutes later they arrived at one of Jackson's amusement arcades and they guys went in and started playing on the games; Jc and Justin we're fighting eachother in 'Mortal Kombat', Chris and Joey we're playing on 'Resident Evil' and Lance was playing on the shooting game outside trying to win a teddy bear for Josh. "Take that Joshua." Justin yelled as he started to kick Josh's ass. "Shit! Come on Sub-zero we can kill Justin. COME ON!" Jc yelled at the screen as he managed to hit Justin with a beam of ice. "Oh fuck! Come on Sonya we can kill Sub-Zero. Yeah kick his ass." Justin said as he started to get some kicks in, "Hahaha take that ice-man." "Nooo!" Jc yelled then he started hitting Sonya with ice whenever he could and he starting kicking her, "Yeah take that little girl!" JC and Justin kept on shouting at the screen and furiously pushing the buttons until 10 minutes later Jc was victorious. Jc started laughing, "Ha take that Curly-fry. No-one beats the master." Justin grumbled, "Yeah you won that round." Lance walked over to them smiling he had finally won a huge Siberian tiger for Josh. "Hey C. Look what I got for ya." Lance said as he gave JC the tiger. Josh had a big grin on his face as he excepted the gift, "You got this for me?" Lance smiled at how happy Josh looked, "I won it actually, after losing about $20 on it. But your worth it." Lance was rewarded with one of Jc's most loving smiles and his eyes shone brightly with love, "Thank you. Wanna play on that basketball thing?" "Sure. You guys wanna play?" Lance asked as Joey and Chris walked over. "Yeah." The guys agreed as they went over and put 25� in and then starting dunking basket's everytime a ball came out. They ended up with loads of tickets to get something from the cabinet or they could save more for something bigger. "What's the time?" Justin asked. Lance checked his watch, "It's almost 1. You want something to eat?" "Yeah I'm starving." Justin replied. "Yeah I'm hungry too." Joey said. "If I'm going to be playing games all day I'm gonna need some food." Chris said as he punched the air making everybody laugh. "I'm kinda hungry." Josh replied as he hugged his tiger close to his chest. "Alright let's get some food then." Lance said as he led the guys to the food place and ordered 5 burgers and they sat at a table as they waited for their food to come. "You having a good time Josh?" Lance asked. Josh smiled at Lance, "Yeah I am. Do you mind if we put this in the car? I love it but I don't think I can carry it around all day." "Sure." Lance replied as there food came and they began to eat making small talk in-between bites. When Josh excused himself to go to the men's room Justin asked, "What are we doing for his birthday?" "Aw shit, it's tomorrow isn't it?" Chris asked. "Yeah it is." Justin said. "We are just gonna have to make it very special for him. We could throw a party that's just us and surprise him." Lance said. "How are we gonna surprise him if he can't leave the house?" Joey asked. "I was thinking I could take him out and then when we come back you guys have the house ready. What d'ya think?" "I think we could do it." Justin said. "I think so too. But what about presents I left mine in Orlando." Joey said. "Me too." Chris replied. Lance thought it over for a minute, "Well you can buy him new gifts and then explain to him that you left the real ones back home and he'll get them when we get back to Orlando or we could have them sent over here after his bithday." "Buying new ones and having the others sent over sounds good to me." Justin agreed. "Sounds good, I'll do it." Joey agreed. "Me too." Chris said. "Ok we'll do that." Lance said then he spotted Josh coming back so he said, "Josh is coming, so talk about something else." They started talking about the tour because that was the only thing Justin could think of when he spotted Josh. "Hey guys." Josh said as he sat back down. "Hey Josh ready for another go?" Justin asked. "Hell yeah! Ready for another ass-whooping JuJu?" "Whatever dude. I'm gonna kick your ass." Josh stood up and said, "Well come on Curly let's see if you can." Then he ran off. "I am SO gonna beat you JC." Justin yelled as he ran after Josh. "Kids." Chris said shaking his head. Joey and Lance laughed at Chris then they paid the check and Joey and Chris accompanied Lance to the car where he put the tiger in the backseat then followed the guys back to the arcade where they saw Jc and Justin yelling at eachother as they played 'Streetfighter' this time. For the next few hours the guys continued to play games; with eachother, sometimes on their own and occasionally with a stranger. Around 6 Lance collected the guys and they went to Lance's car and drove home, all happy and exhausted, it had been a good day. It was 6:30 when they arrived at Lance's, they all piled out of the car and as soon as they got in they crashed on Lance's couch, everyone was too tired to cook anything so Lance reached for the phone and ordered Josh's favorite; Chinese. Chris turned on the tv and put 'Friends' on as Lance has the entire series on video. Lance turned to Josh to see him hugging the tiger tightly while stroking the fur, "Did you have a good time baby?" Josh turned sleepy but happy eyes on Lance and smiled, "Yeah. Although I missed doing this." And Josh kissed Lance passionately. Lance moaned and kissed Josh back just as passionately, when they parted Lance said, "Yeah I missed that too." Lance layed his head on Josh's shoulder as he watched 'Friends', then there was a knock at the door. "I'll get it." Justin said as he got up and answered the door, he paid the delivery guy and took the food to the kitchen. Justin put the food on plates and took them into the guys and then settled back on the chair and ate. An hour later the guys were finished eating and were watching 'Ghostbusters' one of the guys favorite films. Near the end of the film Lance noticed Josh was about to fall asleep, "Baby do you wanna go to sleep?" Josh looked at Lance and nodded barely awake, "I'm sleepy." Lance smiled and stroked Josh's hair, "I know baby, I know." Lance stood up and held his hand out to Josh who took it and Lance pulled him up, "We're going to bed. See you in the morning." "Night guys." Joey, Chris and Justin said as Lance and Jc walked up the stairs; Lance mostly carrying Josh who was holding his tiger. When they got to their room Lance undressed Josh then undressed himself and they went in to their bathroom and cleaned their teeth and then went back into the bedroom and got under the covers. Lance wrapped his arms around Josh as he snuggled up to his chest and started running his fingers through Josh's hair soothingly. Josh sighed sleepily, "I love you Lance." "I love you too Joshua." Lance said before leaning down and taking Josh's lips in a sweet kiss then laying back and breathing in Josh's scent as he fell asleep then minutes later Lance fell asleep and they both held eachother tight as they slept, both of them dreaming about the other. |
