The way you love me [private for me and MsJacobL]

When Josh didn't seem to be angry with the question he asked he felt a relief. He was listening carefully to what the other man was saying. After he heard a chuckle he looked back at master, clearly surprised with it. His lips corners rised a bit in something that could be considered a faint shadow of smile. And then he sneezed loudly. May I put the shirt on, Master?, he wrote down on the sheets as he wasn't sure if he was allowed to.

It was a pleasant surprise to see Akira showing a hint of a smile, despite how small it was, it was the first sign of happiness on the mans face since he found him yesterday.
Standing up from the bed, Josh looked at his servant for another moment, eyeing his body for just a few more seconds before replying.

“Yes of course.” Picking Akira’s shirt up, Josh passed it to him and looked back at the door, looking slightly unanticipated. “I must head back. You’ll be fine here alone I hope?” Josh said in more of a question then comment.

Akira nodded and lay down when master went out from his room. He was still weak so he decided to sleep for a bit and then he would start reading the books other male left in his room. But after he remembered how angry was master yesterday when he fell asleep checking out the documents and letters he changed his mind. Taking the first book he started to read.

On his way back to the ballroom, Josh felt himself getting bored at the simple thought of choosing what went where, and how everything should be placed. As he entered the ballroom, he was surprised to see that most of it was complete, just a few of the more important decorations were still in need of being placed in the correct areas of the room.
It took around two more hours before everything was complete. Josh was exhausted, he had been asked time and time again ‘Where should I put this Master?’ and the more common ‘How’s that?’. It had taken every ounce of himself to stop from yelling and just getting everyone to shut up.
When the room was complete, Josh had allowed everyone to disperse and attend to any other preparations. In the meantime, he had to go back to his office and make sure all invitations were sent out before the midnight.
On his way, he paused in front of Akira’s bedroom, taking a few moments before knocking on the door and opening it to see what his servant was doing.

Akira was sleeping on the bed sheets. Next to him was laying the third book, opened almost on the last page. It seemed that in those two hours young male managed to read almost everything and he fell asleep when he was about to finish. All of a sudden Josh could hear Akira's stomach growling loudly.

[RedRose4]

As he walked in, Josh noticed that Akira was sound asleep. He wasn’t upset, actually he was astonished to see he was nearly done all the books he assigned to him already. Maybe his servant was way more intelligent than he had thought.
Walking over slowly, Josh closed the door behind him and watched the man for a moment before clearing his throat, thinking it would be a good time for a late lunch since the time just flew right by, and Akira’s stomach seemed to be rather loud at the moment.
“Akira.” Josh said his name loud enough for him to hear, but not too loud. “We should eat.” Going to the intercom in his office, Josh ordered some food once again and went back to the mans room.

“I see you’ve been reading.” Josh muttered, noticing the page he was on and smirking. That was around the time he had been born, it was interesting to hear the challenges his mother had to face with him crying all night and keeping everyone up.

As soon as Josh spoke Akira flinched and opened his eyes. He sat on the bed, looking around and not really know what woke him up. Didn't he hear master's voice? So why wasn't he around. He looked at the book realising he didn't finish. Then he heard the steps and.. master went inside the room. But he didn't seem to be angry. Aren't you angry that I didn't finish yet, Master? Josh could see uneasiness in those green, innocent eyes.

[RedRose4]

Walking over and picking up the book, Josh read a few lines before over at Akira when he was trying to say something, instantly shaking his head at his question.
“I’m not upset. I’m actually surprised you read it so quickly, rather impressive.” Josh put the book down and eyed the door, awaiting someone to bring the food although it was taking a while. He’d send his servant usually but Akira wasn’t quite strong enough to go there and back yet.

“As long as I’m not in a bad mood, I won’t be angry. Right now I’m rather…relaxed.” Josh exhaled before seeing those green eyes and smiling. “You have no reason to worry.” he held Akira’s jaw and caressed his chin with his finger before whispering to him. “I have no intention of harming you Akira.” he said softly while gazing into those innocent eyes.

[zajawa]

Akira blushed a bit hearing master kind of prising him. After hearing all what other man had to tell and seeing him smiling he relaxed a bit. Though he flinched a slightly when warm hand took a hold of his jaw. But then once again master assured him he wouldn't harm him. Akira believed the man.. at least for now as he saw he was really calm right now. He was sitting like a well trained puppy, looking his master in the eyes.. even when he heard someone knocking to the door.

[RedRose4]

Josh appreciated the obedience. Akira listened to every word he said, and even as he held his gaze, he felt as though the man would listen to everything he would ask of him. Lowering his sight to his servants lips, Josh whispered, his voice seemingly dripping with hidden lust.
“I’ll make sure to take good care of you.”

The knock on the door made Josh clench his jaw ever so slightly before turning around. “Come in.” he said as he crossed his arms over his chest, obviously not happy.
The chef quickly placed the food down on the dresser nearby, bowing and leaving just as swiftly as he came in, noticing the obvious aura in the room that he created.
With an annoyed sigh, Josh turned back to Akira and put the food closer to him. “Here. You seem to be hungry.” he mumbled.
