Sequel to 'Let Me Share This Burden'

I'm Not Going Anywhere

Caleb woke up and found himself lying on his side with a body pressed tightly to his back, an arm wrapped around his waist, and a leg tangled between his own.

At first he was startled, then the memories of last night flooded his mind, and he calmed down for the moment.

He wanted to look at Reid's face; he tried to turn around, but arms tightened around his waist and a body snuggled into his back.

He smiled a little and squirmed some more.

Then he heard a voice say, "Stop moving so much. I'm trying to sleep."

Reid finally loosened his hold, and Caleb turned around and faced the blonde.

Their gazes met and they stared at each other for a while. Reid leaned in and kissed him lightly.

"That's the best sleep I've had in a while," the older boy whispered. A pale hand caressed his back, massaging the tense muscles.

"Glad to help," Reid replied with a little spark in his eyes," There are other ways I can help you sleep, though."

Caleb grinned and blushed at the same time.

Then, Reid got serious. "About last night…"

Caleb lowered his eyes; he had forgotten that he cried like a baby in front of the younger boy. He inwardly cringed at the memory.

"We don't have to talk about it anymore, but I need to you to know that I'm here. I'm right here, and I'm not going anywhere. You don't have to deal with it alone anymore," the blonde said, earnestly.

Caleb looked up at his words and for the first time he really saw Reid. The guy could be a jerk sometimes, but he was loyal and he knew what he wanted and didn't feel bad about it.

"Reid," he murmured, huskily. He pressed his lips to pale ones and straddled the other boy, earning a groan from said boy.

Hands flew up to grip his hips, fingers digging into his skin. Their tongues slid against each other, battling animatedly with each other.

Abruptly, their positions were switched and Reid was now between Caleb's legs, sucking on his bottom lip.

He pulled away slightly and looked at the boy underneath him, breathing deeply.

Caleb moaned, as Reid placed a few kisses on his neck but immediately stopped, when the blonde sat up and looked at him with a thoughtful expression his face.

"What's wrong?" Caleb asked, worried he done something wrong.

"I think we should slow down a little. They'll be plenty of time for this. I haven't even taken you out on a date, yet," the blonde finally uttered after a few moments of staring at Caleb's wet lips.

Reid wanted it to be special. "Damn, he had it bad."

The dark-haired boy chuckled and looked a little surprise, but it made sense. "You want to take me out on a date."

Reid shrugged his shoulders. "Well, yeah. We can go to Nicky's tonight, together. Pogue and Tyler will be there. It'll be fun."

Caleb looked skeptical, but he had to admit he hadn't been out with his friends for a while. It actually did sound like fun, and this was Reid the man-whore wanting to take things slow. It kind of made him feel special.

"Okay. We'll go out tonight," he agreed.

Reid smiled and kissed Caleb one more time, before getting up from the bed.

The older boy sat up in bed, watching as Reid quickly got dressed.

"Where are you going?"

The blonde looked over at him. "I've got to go back to the dorms; I can't wear the same clothes all day. I do have an image to uphold. Besides, I need to get my uniform for school today."

Caleb chuckled and shook his head at the blonde's ego. He had forgotten about school; he looked at his clock. He still had time to take a shower and drop Reid off at school. "I guess that's your way of asking me for a ride."

He got up from the bed and headed toward the bathroom.

"Oh, you'll be the one doing the riding later," Reid replied with a wink.

Caleb felt his cheeks heat up, a comeback stuck in his throat at the image.

This was going to be an interesting day.

I decided to do a sequel because I'm really starting to like this pairing. I just wanted to show how their relationship changes.

This will be a few chapters long.

Hope you liked it.
