Chapter Ten // Chapter Eleven
Kris didn’t really see Adam after the show, not even when he was signing for the fans. To Kris’ surprise though, a lot of them told Kris how brave he was for announcing on stage that he was in love with Adam and that they hoped everything worked out for him. They also told him that if people hated him because of his sexuality, they weren’t people he needed because there would always be the true fans that loved him no matter what. That’s when Kris realized that he had the greatest fans in the world and that no matter what happened with Adam, they’d be there for him.
When Kris got to his hotel room that night, he immediately dropped his bags to the ground and before he could even turn on the lights, there was someone flying at him and wrapping their arms around him. It only took him a moment to know who it was and his moment of fear was gone in a flash. “Adam,” he whispered. The overhead light flicked on and Kris looked up into Adam’s tearstained face. He frowned. “Don’t cry.”
“I can’t help it,” Adam said quietly. “What you did tonight…” He shook his head. He looked down into Kris’ face and carded a hand through his hair. “You came out to thousands of people tonight and… you did that for me.”
Kris nodded. “I did.”
“Why, Kris? Why would you do that?”
“Because I needed you to know that without you I’m completely miserable and I’d do anything to have you back. Even go out on that stage and do the one thing I was most scared to do.”
Adam pressed his forehead to Kris’. “That means a lot to me you know.”
“I know.”
“You really do love me, don’t you?”
“More than I could ever explain.”
“I want you to know that I feel the same way about you, too. I love you so much and the past few days have just… my heart literally ached.”
Kris took Adam by the hand and walked him over to the bed where they sat down on the edge. “You know, you were hiding it pretty well. I thought you were doing fine without me.”
“I didn’t want you to know how much I was hurting,” Adam explained. “But I was crying myself to sleep every night.”
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s not your fault.”
“But it is,” Kris insisted. “I’m the one who was too scared about… everything. I’m the one that basically pushed you away and didn’t fight you tooth and nail when you left.”
“You were scared.”
“I was, but that’s no excuse. I don’t run from things worth fighting for and you are so worth it. You are worth fighting till the death for, Adam, no matter what.”
“Does that mean we can stop being miserable now?”
“Only if that means you can forgive me and want to be with me again.”
Adam laughed lightly. “Of course I forgive you, Krissy. That song… I’ve never heard it before. Who’s it by?”
Kris blushed. “Uh, I wrote it.”
Adam’s eyes went wide. “Really?”
Kris nodded.
Adam grinned. “That’s definitely going on the album, you know that, right?”
Kris smiled shyly. “You think so?”
“Of course! The fans will absolutely die if you put it on there!”
The couple lapsed into silence, neither knowing what to say. Kris looked around the room for a minute, noticing that Adam’s bags were over by the dresser. He turned to him and said, “You brought your bags with you?”
Adam blushed and nodded shyly. “I was kind of hoping I could stay with you again.”
Kris kissed Adam softly. “Of course. You didn’t honestly think I was going to kick you out after that huge risk I took, did you?”
Adam shrugged. “I was hoping you wouldn’t.”
Kris kicked off his shoes and Adam did the same. Then he lay back against the pillows and pulled Adam down with him. Adam curled into Kris’ side, his head resting on Kris’ chest. Kris combed his fingers through Adam’s hair and sighed in contentment. This is how he wanted to spend every night, curled up in bed with Adam and he told him so.
Adam lifted his head to look at Kris, a smile on his face. “Don’t worry, you will.”
Kris raised an eyebrow and Adam moved up so they were nose to nose. “I love you, Kris, and I promise I’m not going anywhere.”
“I love you, too, and I promise that neither of us will have to hide anymore.” Then he kissed Adam softly on the mouth. “Love you,” he said again.
“Love you, too.”
Then they both got ready for bed. They slid between the sheets and curled around each other, holding on tightly as if their lives depended on it. “I’ll never let you go like that again,” Kris whispered.
“You were scared,” Adam said
“Doesn’t matter, because I’ll always fight for you.”
“You better.”
“I’d rather be hated for who I am.”
“Really?”
Kris nodded. “Yes, if it means I get to have you then yes.”
The couple shared a sweet kiss before they both closed their eyes and fell asleep. Tomorrow was another hectic day, one that they would share together.
