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

[zajawa]

"Thank you, Master. I'm sorry it isn't possible to leave you alone", the bodyguard said softly.
Then he followed Josh.

"How do you feel about Josh?", asked Alice softly but Akira was to stressed up to answer.
He just looked on his knees not able even to move.
"Oh come on.. I won't hurt you.. I just want to talk with you.."

Josh proceeded to walk forward, giving a single nod of his head and remembering it wasn’t his fault. “It’s just your job, if you weren’t doing it you wouldn’t be adequate for the position.” Josh pointed out, heading towards the door and knocking before opening it, just to be a little polite.
As he walked in and removed his shoes, Josh looked at Akira, seeing how he was clearly a little nervous still. “I’m back Aki.” Josh said to him, walking over and crouching in front of him in order to look at his face. He almost seemed to be treating Akira like a child, although it was just the concern inside of Josh that made him act that way.
Looking at Alice, Josh then stood up and began to ask. “My guard couldn’t let me leave without protection. If you aren’t comfortable we can leave, although I doubt he’d be much of a problem.” Josh pointed out with a faint smile. “I am looking forward to that alcohol though.”

"If I can to say it - you changed, Master", said the older man softly.
If Josh would think about it he could remember him from when his mother still lived.

Akira hugged Josh as soon he was there. He easily could say he was really stressed. His arms were trembling and his body as well.

"Sorry miss..", said the old bodyguard.

"That is entirely fine, my prince", chuckled Alice and then sighed, looking at Akira. "I'm sorry. It seems I scared him.."

[RedRose4]

Glancing at his guard, Josh took a few moments before nodding his head slowly and responding. “Yes…I have, for the better though I hope.” Josh muttered, looking at Akira and tightly hugging him back, noticing just how much he was shaking. He already regretted leaving him, if he was smart he’d bring him outside with him.
Scowling at himself in his mind, Josh looked at Alice when she began to speak again. “I’m sure you didn’t do it intentionally.” Josh tried to reassure her before rubbing Akira’s back and putting his mouth close to his ear in order to whisper to him.
“You’re okay Akira. I’m here now.” Josh said to him as softly as he possibly could, his arms never leaving his body until he was sure Akira was okay. Even with other people around, it wasn’t like Josh was going to just leave Akira shaken up, he needed to be there for him no matter what.

[zajawa]

It took Akira few longer moments but he calmed down. Only then he looked around and noticed that he was hugging other male on the middle of someones else livingroom with people looking at them. Blushing up to his ears he let go of Josh and took a step back. Now he really wanted to go back to his room and hide under sheets where no body would be able to see him.

[RedRose4]

While his arms were around Akira, Josh looked at Alice, giving her a look that just read he had no hard feelings towards her. It wasn’t difficult to make Akira feel uncomfortable, so he knew it mustn’t have been her fault completely.
When Akira let go, Josh looked at him, noticing how fast he did it, showing that it was most likely because of the other people in the room and not because he actually wanted to stop.
“You okay?” Josh asked Akira, looking into his eyes and holding one of his hands before clearing his throat and looking back at Alice.
“We’ll only be here for a few short hours, I don’t think Akira can take much more, and I found a stray cat that I’m taking care of, so I’ll have to check up on her later.” Josh said as he took a seat back down onto the couch and pulled Akira gently down with him.

[zajawa]

Akira nodded softly quickly looking away. He was not fine. Sitting on the couch he was looking at his knees. Inside his head Akira was hoping it would end soon and he could go back to his room.. He really, really wanted to go back. They were going only for few moments.. and then spend time alone.. and..

"Ah. A stray, huh? And here Akira, have another cookie", she said with a soft smile, pushing plate with them closer do the young male.

[RedRose4]

“Yeah, she’s really beaten up but she’ll live.” Josh said with hope in his tone of voice before looking at Akira and seeing how bad he was doing. Maybe staying for a few hours was a bad idea, and if he really wanted he could come back when he felt more comfortable….maybe even let him stay with Sangre while he visited Alice.
Holding Akira’s hand, Josh looked at Alice and tried being as polite as possible. “If I leave early you wouldn’t feel offended would you? I think Akira had enough for today, he’s really pushed out of his comfort zone.” Josh said to her as he rubbed Akira’s knuckles and stayed as close to him as he could. “But I’ll return, I promise.”

[zajawa]

"No. Of course I won't feel offended. I think it's good idea to postpone our drinking. Akira doesn't look happy.. and maybe it would be better for you both to go home for the day. But we can exchange emails or.. maybe Skype so we would be able to talk and drink none the less?", proposed Alice.

Akira shook his head after looking on the plate for few moments. He liked cookies and all.. but he was feeling way to off right now to be able to eat them.

[RedRose4]

“That sounds perfect.” Josh smiled in return, looking around shortly before looking back at Alice and pursing his lips. “You have something I can write my information on? I’ll keep in contact with you then, and I really do appreciate your understanding.” Josh looked back at Akira, leaning towards him and whispering near his ear. “We’re going back home, don’t worry.” Josh said while rubbing his back, using his other hand still to hold his.
