Sousha's tongue poked out to lick some extra sauce from his lips, blushing into his pillow. "I maybe did," He cooed innocently, blinking at him. "Okay, I did. I'm sorry. I should've asked but I was so hungry and it looked really good and I couldn't help it."
Eclipse chuckled, "It's alright, I should've left you food…" he said softly, munching on the contents of the package, trying not to melt from the other's sheer adorableness. "By the way, I never got your name?" he said softly, watching him.
Sousha peeked out at Eclipse again, hiding a small smile in the pillow. "I'm Sousha. What's your name?" He asked, raising his chin out of the pillow, his dark eyes shining as he met Eclipse's gaze shyly. His smile still remained as he spoke.
Eclipse felt himself melting, Why is he so adorable???? he thought, "Uhm.. Eclipse…" he said, softly, trying to keep rainbows from exploding. God… I don't know what I am but at least I know I'm definitely not straight… he thought.
Sousha bit his lip a little at the silence after Eclipse's name, snuggling back into his pillow. "Thank you for saving me, Eclipse. It was very nice of you," He murmured politely, smiling a bit wider into his pillow. He felt like a big dumb idiot.
Eclipse nodded, shrugging, "No decent person would've just left you to those thugs…" he said softly, slipping around to sit next to him, "Now, I know I heard you mention a hotel, which means you're from out of town…"
Sousha hastily sat up to allow the other to sit next to him, nodding. "I've been in America for three months on a business trip, then they sent me here with a tour group. I'm from Ireland. My whole family is," He explained to the other.
Eclipse nodded curiously, "Interesting…" he said softly. "Are you tired? It is pretty late…" he said after a few moments. Looking him up and down again, trying not to give into instinct and just keep him here.
Sousha watched Eclipse look him up and down, blushing deep. "I-I was waiting for you to get back. I didn't want to sleep without you here." He spoke in a soft, ashamed voice, dipping his head a little to stare at his lap. He was such a hopeless romantic.
Eclipse tilted his head in confusion. "Why would you wait up for me?" he asked, Hoo boy…. he thought, forcing himself to stay calm as he focused on the other's eyes.
"Cus I didn't feel safe without you here," The human responded so quietly into his pillow he could barely be heard, his gaze flickering away from Eclipse's once or twice. He didn't like admitting things. Especially in this case. It didn't make him feel better at all.
Eclipse blinked in surprise, Alright if he doesn't stop acing like the adorable.. helpless treasure he is he will stay here just so I can look after him…. he thought, knowing that was crazy. "Y-You didn't feel safe?" he asked softly, "Why not?" his voice was gentle, and confused.
"No, I didn't feel safe. You helped me back there and I was afraid that they would come back for me. But now that you're here I feel safe again." He looped his fingers together and swallowed nervously. "I probably sound like a dork. I"m sorry."
Eclipse couldn't help blushing, and smiling softly, "I probably shouldn't be smiling, but that's really sweet…" he said. "And you're not a dork." he said softly, "You're cute, but not a dork." with that he got up to put the lunchmeat away.
Sousha giggled, only to pause at Eclipse's third comment. "Cute-cute?" He repeated in a stutter, his cheeks growing redder. He covered them with both of his hands and burrowed away, keeping himself from giggling like a big gay idiot.
Eclipse watched him, trying not to laugh, "Scratch that… Adorable is more like it…" he said softly, putting the meat in the fridge and leaning over the back of the couch to study the bundle that was Sousha. That's it… he's staying here…. he thought, And unless he's got someone to pick him up he ain't leaving…
Sousha completely disappeared apart from a lump on the couch, snuggling into his arms shyly. "Thank-thank you, Eclipse." He ran his fingers through his hair, suddenly wishing he hadn't just gotten mugged and actually met Eclipse on a nice day. But no, his hair had to be greasy and nasty and gross.
Eclipse chuckled, watching him. "You're welcome." He said softly, moving to sit next to him again, grabbing the TV remote. "Are you tired?" He asked, knowing he himself was not.
Sousha nodded and rested his chin on his pillow. He had given everything not to fall asleep without Eclipse, and now that he was here, he desperately wanted to drop off. But there was no telling where he would tilt to, where he would put his legs… Overall, it was a problem that Eclipse was sitting with him.
Eclipse nodded, setting the remote down, "You wanna sleep?" He asked, knowing that he personally was a night owl, and would be up later. Watching the other carefully he waited for an answer.
Sousha glanced at the other and nodded. "I don't wanna make you get up, though. I can stay up with you," He mumbled into his trusty pillow companion, his cheeks reddening when he felt Eclipse's gaze on him..
Eclipse hummed softly, "You sure?" he asked, "You could always take my bed if you want…" he said softly, not wanting to keep this adorable bundle from his sleep. Studying him a bit more he couldn't help but reaffirm the fact that this boy was too innocent for words.
"Re-really? You'll let me take your bed?" He asked with a small gasp as he looked up at the other, making eye contact again. This time it made his cheeks flush more, and the red travel down his cheeks and to the rest of his face. Eclipse was a very handsome man. He hadn't gotten a good look until now, and now Sousha couldn't look away.
Eclipse nodded, "I already know I'm not sleeping anytime soon.. but you've had a long day…" he said softly, noting the blush as the other looked up at him. Why me? he thought, unable to stop adoring him.
Sousha nodded and swallowed again, able to tear his gaze off of the other when their eyes met again. "Thank you. I'll take your bed if you're not gonna use it or anything." He curled more blankets around him but didn't move yet.
