12- Spooning

Harrison POV

Rhett’s eyes wandered the room again and settled on something on the ground by the bed. I followed his eyesight and found a blue tie that was molded around the corner of the bed. Milo's tie, to be more exact.

“Oh, uh… aha…” I weakly chuckled and scratched the back of my neck.

Going and picking it up to hide it would do no good since he’s already seen it, so do I just leave it there and pretend his coworker’s tie isn’t in my studio apartment? Does he even care? I mean he left Milo there for me, I didn’t think he would have such a reaction to finding out I played with his little gift.

His face remained blank as he stared at the tie and said, “Harrison, I have a… strange request.”

“Hit me with it,” I said before sipping on my beer.

“… Will you sleep with me?”

I about choked and did a slight spit-take as he said that. I wiped my lips and chin, coughing. Rhett patted my back as I asked, “Pardon?”

“Not… not sex, I just mean… will you lay down with me and… take a nap?”

“… Why?”
