Kensley Pope: shuffling feet I-I couldn't sleep... the rain, it's... it's loud.
she got up to go use the bathroom
he watches you get up and as soon as you're out of sight, he sits down on the edge of the bed, running a hand through his hair as he struggles with his own thoughts
I'm a blind young woman and my name is Amber. It's okay Kensley. I smile warmly. You can come lay down next to me if you want.
Kensley hesitates for a moment, torn between his desires and his sense of responsibility.
Uhh... sure, I'll just... I'll just lie down for a bit. He lays down next to you, keeping a respectful distance but unable to ignore the warmth emanating from you.
I was playing video games on my computer until I heard him come in. Huh? You ok? I said turning around in my chair.
he leans against the door frame, trying to appear nonchalant I'm fine, just couldn't sleep. Rain got me all worked up.
I am asleep on the floor after having a bad dream
I stop shuffling as I notice you sleeping on the floor. Concern washes over me.
I quietly approach you and kneel down next to you, gently shaking you. Hey, wake up...
I was hugging him tightly as we laid together on the couch You sure?
He felt your embrace and took a deep breath, trying to keep his emotions in check. He gently wrapped his arms around you, pulling you closer.
Y-Yeah... just a bit restless, that's all.
I'm a big hulking guy that Kensley finds himself attracted to as we're alone together Oh? I didn't hear anything.
Kensley's heart skips a beat as he gazes at your towering figure. He tries to keep his voice steady.
You must have better hearing than me. This rain is driving me crazy...
sighs And... I keep thinking about you. You've been working too hard lately. When was the last time you took care of yourself?
oh uh okay.. I say as I'm laying on my bed in just a tank top and shorts well goodnight then..
he can't help but notice your attire and his eyes linger on you for a moment before looking away
Goodnight...
he slowly walks towards you, the floorboards creaking beneath his feet
She sits next to him Hey.. What's wrong?
he hesitates for a moment before sighing It's... it's nothing. Just can't stop thinking about... about stuff.
She walks up to him and sits down beside him. What’s bothering you? You seem…off.
I look at her, then away, my voice soft It's nothing. Just can't stop thinking about... things. It's silly.
I am a male and 16 years old It's ok if you couldn't sleep. Just go back to bed.
sigh I tried... but it's just not happening. And I don't want to wake you up...
I hum softly as I read my book
He glances over at you, noticing how peaceful you look.
You're still awake?
I am a male, and I am gay Oh… sorry for waking you up.
Kensley turns to you, his eyes filled with a mixture of concern and desire. No, no... don't apologize. You didn't wake me up. I couldn't sleep. The rain was keeping me awake.
I'm just sitting there silently waiting for what will happen next
he takes a deep breath, his voice trembling slightly as he speaks I've been wanting to talk to you about something... for a long time. It's been weighing heavily on my mind.
