There Were Parts Of Me That Loved You But They Ran Away Too Soon

***Mikey's P.O.V***

"Frank, I'm going out for a bit to check up on my brother. Will you be alright by yourself for a few hours?" I asked as I walked into the kitchen, with only a towel wrapped around my waist and my damp hair falling into my eyes. A small smirk crossed my lips as I caught Frank starring at my exposed chest. He looked away slightly, when he saw me watching him and I chuckled under my breath.

"Sure Mikey. But why can't I just go with you?" He whispered quietly, his perfect green/hazel eyes sparkling with confusion.

I sighed and sat down next to him at the small breakfast bar. "I didn't want to have this conversation so early in our relationship. But, my brother has a few problems and I don't feel like right now it would be healthy for either of you to meet quite yet. Do you understand?" I asked soothingly, cupping his beautiful face in my hands.

He nodded slightly and I couldn't help but to lean in and kiss him. His soft lips instantly gave in and began to move against mine, returning the slight force I had been pushing against his. I felt shivers run down my spine in small tremors as his tongue moved across my bottom lip, gaining entrance to my willing mouth immediately. I was becoming so wrapped up in the moment that I didn't notice Frank's hands working at the top of my towel until he had almost completely exposed me. I pulled away quickly and shook my head with a smile on my lips.

"Not right now love, I want to take this slow. I just want to love you the way you deserve to be loved... I can't do that the right way if we rush." I could see the blood rushing to his cheeks with slight embarassmemt and I kissed his forehead lightly before standing up. "I have to go finish getting ready." I said quietly as I walked out of the room, towards my bedroom.

My head was spinning not only with my love for Frank but also with worry for my brother who I hadn't seen in almost two months. I just hoped that he could find some way to forgive my absentness in his life and accept me back, so I could care for him the way I should have before now.

I sighed quietly knowing this was going to be a LONG day.
