Button

"So what happens if I press this button?" I
asked. "Nothing" he replied. I pushed the button, grinning. "It's when you let go that things get nasty."

I woke up panting and sweating.

"Max!" I shrieked. Tears suddenly flooded down my face as Max and Tim ran into my room.

"What is it?" Max asked, worry laced in his voice. I scurried out of my bed to hug him.

"N-nightmare" I whimpered. He sighed in relief and anger before hugging me back.

"Ross don't scare me like that ever again. I thought you were dying or something," he said to me. Tim snorted but stopped when Max glared at him. I fought the tears before burying my face into his soft pajama top. In the corner of my eye I saw Max's hand give a 'leave us be' gesture to Tim.

"But Mithross," Tim whined. I heard a light growl escape Max's throat before Tim rushed away.

"Now where were we," Max asked gently, setting us down on my bed. I looked at him with teary eyes.

"I-I wouldn't kill you would I?" Max merely chuckled.

"Oh Ross you're too sweet to do such a thing," Max whispered softly. I nodded, burying my head into his top once again. Only this time I took a deep breathe, taking in the red head's scent.

"I guess so..."

"Wanna get some hot-chocolate?" I lifted my head and nodded as he asked. Max gave me a sweet smile and got off my bed, giving me his hand. I sniffled, taking it and got up with his help. As we walked down the hall he never let go of my hand. His hand had a bit of a rough texture, and had a firm grip on my own hand. All together it was nice having Max's hand in my own. My ears turned red at this thought.

Before I knew it we were in the kitchen and he dropped my hand to get supplies. I let out an inaudible whimper as he left me to seat myself. I watched him as he grabbed the cups, poured the mix and milk in them, and put them in the microwave. Once beeping filled the room he took them out, sat next to me, giving one to me. I graciously took the mug and sipped the steamy liquid. I giggled and blew air at the steam, making it fly everywhere.

As I continued drinking I caught Max staring at me. A heavy blush crossed my face as I tried to ignore him. I stared at the contents in my cup. It was a rich brown. Once I finished I put down the cup and grinned at Max.

"Done!" "Well you go upstairs, I'll clean up the mess," Max smiled back. I nodded and got up before leaving. I couldn't help but feel like someone was watching me. Meh probably my head. I tiptoed up the steps and entered my room quietly incase Tim was asleep. I then snuggled into the bed, closing my eyes.

I heard Max walk up the stairs and come to my doorway. He crept in and kissed my forehead before leaving. Once he was gone my eyelids shot open. A finger touched my lips before I shut my eyes. Eventually I the darkness consumed me into slumber.

"Ross get up!" a familiar voice exclaimed. "We're late for work!" "Okay okay I'll get up" I groaned, not moving. After a few minutes the voice spoke up again, "Adorable," it whispered. "Take a picture it will last longer," I retorted, snickering. I looked over to see Max in the the hallway blushing. I laughed and said "I'm up."

Yeah I'm a "lazy" asshole.
