I Am Yours, Mr Chevalier!
The Part 69
Baras opened his eyes slowly, felt his entire body had been flooded with sweat, his fever had already dropped. Just leaving a slight throbbing feeling in his head. Baras squinted his eyes as the scattering rays of sunlight entering into his room pierced through the curtains making him glare.
The door to the room is open. Ben's face poked out from behind it. His smile rose to see that Laras had woken up.
"Hey . Are you feeling better?" ask Ben as he approaches him. Laras scratched his head.
"You're still here?" ask Laras.
"Yeah, do you think I could leave you in such a state of pain?"
Barrel smiled thinly. He saw the face of this handsome man before him. Her lips really invited her to pounce on him immediately. And his canine teeth that are visible when he is talking or smiling make him look really charming. Laras swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. Since then his chest has been pounding incoherently.
"Why do you see me like that?" asked Ben while bringing his face closer to Laras's face. Almost the lips of both of them were clenched until the ringing of Ben's cell phone made both of them urgently continue their kiss.
"Jack hasn't stopped calling me since this morning" Ben complained as he wiggled his phone. "Okay, okay Jack, geez!" yell Ben at Jack who's across the street.
Ben took a long breath.
"Preparing The Rock Show in Chicago, a big concert with some big rock bands, was exhausting" Ben said as he stroked Laras' head. The look in his eyes was like saying he was not willing to leave Laras.
"You'd better hurry up" said Laras.
"Call Larry you didn't go to work today, did you?"
Laras nodded.
"Ah, I've ordered food for you, maybe a few more minutes will be there." Ben took out a few dollars from his wallet and placed them on a table next to Laras' bed. Then stand up, walk back and forth for a while, then face towards Laras back.
"Marga ...." Ben clasped Laras' hand tightly.
"Yes?" Baras looked at Ben in confusion.
This man seemed to be misbehaving, or over-excited, or agitated, I don't know, his body language implied an extraordinary awkwardness.
"Thank you" said Ben. " I'm the happiest man in this whole Manhattan."
Barrels. "Go, Ben."
Ben kisses lips Soft barrel. " I'll see you . mmm .. tomorrow, maybe."
"Go, Ben," whispered Laras. Ben moved from the side of Laras and then stepped out of the room, a moment later his face appeared from behind the door.
"Go's!" hardik Laras makes Ben stupefied. Then disappeared back behind the door.
Just go ahead, Laras. Yes, yes, just go.
A knock on the door blew his daydream. It must be the person who delivers the food. The money Ben put on the table. Then rushed to the door of his apartment.

Ben checks the rundown of The Rock Show Chicago on his studio laptop. The Rebellion name parallels some of the major bands that will come along with Slipknot, Canibal Corpse and System Of A Down. Then the writing of The Resistance slipped among the newcomer bands. Ben snorted softly, meaning he would meet again with the chatty Hailey. The girl also often annoyed him with messages and calls that all Ben ignored. It's damned Jack gave Hailey her number without her permission.
Greg handed Ben a bottle of beer. Then sit next to him.
"Thanks" said Ben.
Greg looked at the laptop screen. Then nodded after reading the big names written on the inbox email from the event organizer.
"How's Baras?" ask Greg.
"Hmm .he's good" Ben replied with his face. Greg could already guess that their relationship had levelled up.
"Lucky bastard!" hardik Greg while nudging his best friend's shoulder.
"Yeah!" Ben raised his beer bottle and then downed it. "Luckiest bastard I am," she wrote.
"Don't ever hurt her, you hear? Or I'll take Laras from you" Greg threatened.
Ben turned his head towards Greg, the long black-haired man's face looked solemn.
"You don't believe me?" ask Ben.
"With your reputation? I don't think so."
"You see," replied Ben.
Greg just smiled obliquely. Then pat Ben on the shoulder and leave. Ben rested his back on the chair and placed both his legs on the table. The man raised his face while imagining the sweet face of Laras. Ah, it's like to kidnap the girl again and take her away for a few days. But Ben's schedule is so crowded and it is not possible to do so. Had to wait another week after the event in Chicago was over.
Ben's brain begins to devise a plan for where he'll take Laras. Imagining a confused and upset face Laras later makes Ben involuntarily smile himself.
"Ben .. somebody's looking for you!" jack exclaimed from behind the door of the slightly open room. Ben looked back and found Jack standing with someone.
"Anita?"
