Jamie and Andrew Ch. 05

****

Andrew heard a bang come from the office adjoining his and rushed to get in there wondering what had happened since he knew the last patients had left and Jamie should be alone.

He cried out when he saw Jamie lying on the floor with blood running down his face. He knew not to move him but beyond that he was clueless. He heard footsteps then there was a crowd of administration staff gathering round them all shoving and shouting. This pulled Andrew out of his panic and some of his first aid training from when he had joined the community came back to him. (All vampires needed to know basic first aid according to Casey as they were working and living with witches that could get hurt or ill at any time.) He saw Tim in the crowd and grabbed him, "We need something to stop the bleeding, then get rid of this crowd and get hold of Casey." He rattled off the things in quick succession.

Tim immediately yanked a clean square of cloth out of his pocket and handed it to Andrew, then turned and started ushering people out the door of the office telling them they would all be told how Jamie was but they need to give him space to be treated.

Andrew was holding the cloth to Jamie's temple and was glad to see the blood flow slowing down. With his free hand he grabbed the phone from the desk and dialed the clinic.

"I need Casey at the guard's headquarters now," He stated to the person who answered without bothering with a greeting. The person on the other then told him Casey was unavailable and could he tell them what the problem was instead.

This infuriated Andrew, "I'll tell you what the problem is! Casey's brother is lying bleeding and unconscious on the floor of the guard's clinic and you're wasting precious time arguing with me. Get Casey here NOW!" and with that he slammed the phone down cracking the casing in the process.

Tim came back in the room at the noise and bent to help Andrew hold the cloth to the wound, but as he reached for Jamie Andrew let out a low growl that had Tim moving away quickly and taking up a position at the door to make sure no one else tried to barge in other than Casey.

Both Andrew and Tim jumped when Casey appeared in the middle of the room out of thin air. He was only wearing sweatpants and t-shirt and had obviously just got out of bed.

"What happened?" He demanded as he got down on the floor by Jamie and ignored Andrew's growl except to slap him on the back of his head. "I asked you a question Andrew! What happened?"

Andrew shook his head to clear it and quickly told Casey that he had found Jamie like this after hearing a bang from the office. Casey glanced around and saw the blood on the corner of the desk; he shook his head in resignation. "He is just drained from using too much magic. I told him to call for a back-up volunteer nurse if he needed help. It looks like he passed out and caught his head on the desk." He muttered a spell and removed the cloth from the wound. The wound had closed over and looked to be at least a day old already. "I can't do more than that as I'm tired myself and I need my energy for the transport. I'm taking him home, Andrew, you can meet us there if you wish too. I know you and Jamie are friends and you can see for yourself he is fine." With that Casey laid a hand on Jamie and they both vanished.

"Well that was a surprise"! Tim said from the doorway, but Andrew didn't answer. He was already heading for his office to grab his things so he could get to the clinic.

****

He arrived at the clinic and left his car parked across the driveway.

"Where is Casey?" he demanded of the first person in uniform that he saw.

"He is in the main house," the person replied and before he could say any more Andrew was heading for the connecting door.

Much to the nurse's surprise he put in the code that he'd seen Jamie use the night before and quickly disappeared inside. He stopped on the other side of the door and took a deep breath, the house was too big to try looking for Jamie so he opened his other senses and he soon picked up the scent he associated with Jamie. He followed it up stairs and found Jamie in the same bedroom he himself had been in.

Casey looked up from his post by the bed. "What took you so long?" he asked, and then waved away any answer. "Never mind, I need to go back to bed, which means you're in charge of watching him. Just make sure if he wakes up at all you give him water to drink to keep him hydrated and keep talking to him as he'll probably be disorientated and may panic." With that he started to walk out the room but was stopped by a question Andrew just had to know the answer to.

"Why is he in this room? Why isn't he in his own bed?"

Casey looked back from the door, "This is where he slept today after you left. I found him here when I went to wake him up for his shift. He was hugging the pillow just as he is now."

Before Andrew could ask anything else Casey slipped out the door and closed it behind him. Andrew sat in the vacated chair and picked up a book that had been left on the bedside cabinet.

****

After what seemed like hours but was actually only about an hour and a half Jamie started to stir. Andrew jumped up to grab the glass of water Casey had left with a straw in it so Jamie didn't have to sit up to drink.

Jamie opened his eyes but didn't seem to see anything, he accepted the straw when Andrew held it to his mouth and drank when he was told to. When Andrew set the glass back he knocked the pillow Jamie had been holding and it fell off the bed. The effect was immediate, Jamie's eyes went wide and his voice came out as a whimper. Andrew leant close and realized it was his name Jamie was saying and then he remembered what Casey had said about talking to him.

"Hey Jamie," he said taking Jamie's hand and keeping his voice quiet and calm "I'm here, no need to panic now." Jamie calmed instantly at the sound of his voice, he couldn't say why he had said what he had but he was grateful it had worked and Jamie seemed better. He tried to move his hand but Jamie wouldn't let go, Andrew could have easily broken the hold but he worried that may agitate Jamie again so he sat on the edge of the bed hoping Jamie would fall asleep and he could free his hand and return to his chair and get some sleep. What he didn't plan for was the minute he sat on the bed Jamie's arms came around him and pulled him down so they were lying together. He heard Jamie's sound of contentment before he heard the deep breaths that meant he was asleep again. Andrew was at a loss, he knew if he moved he would probably wake Jamie up again. In the end it was decided for him as his body gave into sleep between one thought and the next. Wrapped in Jamie's arms he felt safe and comfortable for the first time he could ever remember.

****

Jamie came awake slowly, he didn't want to let go of the dream he was having. He was dreaming that Andrew was in his bed sleeping next to him and he ached with the knowledge it might never come to pass. He finally opened his eyes then shut them and tried again. When the image before him didn't change, he silently reached out for his brother, "Casey what happened? How did I get home? And how did I manage to get Andrew into bed?"

At the last comment he felt his brother's shock and got the message he would be there as quick as possible. A few minutes later Casey came in the room and saw the scene before him. "You make a cute couple," he sent to Jamie not wanting to wake Andrew and spoil the moment.

He quickly filled Jamie in on the night before and scolded him for not being more careful about how much magic he used.

"What if Andrew hadn't been there? How long could you have laid there before someone found you? You need to take more care; you're not super witch you know!"

"I know, I'll be more careful, I promise," Jamie replied, "Now how did Andrew get here? And by here I mean in bed with me."

Casey shrugged, "I told him to follow from the HQ to here and then I left him on guard duty with instructions to give you water if you woke and to talk to you if you panicked. I didn't tell him to get into bed with you. You'll have to ask him about that yourself."

As Casey was talking Andrew started to stir, after sharing a brief look with Jamie Casey slipped out the room so as not to embarrass the young vampire.

"Well hi there handsome," Jamie greeted a sleepy Andrew with a bright smile.

At first Andrew looked confused then he started to look panicked and as Jamie had expected he tried to get up. Jamie was having none of that and made sure to hold him tighter, he knew Andrew could break free if he really wanted to but was banking on him not wanting to hurt him in the process of trying. To his relief Andrew settled back on the bed and Jamie pulled him back onto his chest.

"Casey already told me how I got home. You going to tell me how I got you into bed and of course tell me how to do it again when I'm conscious next time?"

Andrew winced slightly and took a breath before answering, "You woke for some water and I knocked a pillow off the bed. Before I could pick it up you had grabbed my hand and pulled me onto the bed instead. Then you wouldn't let go."

By the end of his explanation Andrew was blushing and Jamie loved how he looked when he was all red.

"Well, since Casey tells me you came to my rescue and now you had to put up with my snoring all day the least I can do is say thank you."

Without any warning Jamie leant down and kissed Andrew. At first Andrew stilled not knowing what to do but then his body took over and his mind shut down. He melted into Jamie and when Jamie's tongue sought entrance he opened his mouth. As they kissed his instinct to take charge rose again and he put his hands on Jamie's shoulders to push him back on the bed. Jamie went willing and helped to pull Andrew on top of him.

At the feel of Jamie under him it was like a dam had been burst, Andrew attacked Jamie's mouth with more passion and when he felt Jamie's hardness rubbing against him, he ground down with his own till they were both groaning in pleasure.

A knock at the door startled them both apart and they lay catching their breath and rearranging the covers to ensure their arousals were not obvious before calling out for the person to come in.

Jackson came into the room and stopped when he saw the two of them in bed. A smile spread on his face "It's about time you two got together!" He stated and then turned to Jamie ignoring Andrews shocked expression. "I heard what happened and wanted to check you were okay," he said to Jamie.

Jamie smiled and assured Jackson he was fine and there would be no lasting damage done.

Jackson was turning to leave when Andrew spoke up, "What did you it's about time we got together?"

Jackson turned back to the bed, "Anyone can see you're mates. Just one example is your reaction to any other man going near Jamie; you scared Tim last night when he tried to help."

Andrew frowned trying to figure what Jackson meant, meanwhile Jackson had taken a step nearer the bed and had raised an eyebrow at Jamie. Jamie guessed what he had planned and nodded slightly. Jackson leant down and hugged Jamie tight. As soon as Jackson's arms made contact with Jamie, Andrew let out a low growl. Jackson stepped back smiling having made his point.

"I'll leave you two to talk," he grinned and quickly left the room.

"Well that was the most I've ever seen Jackson smile at one time," Jamie said as a way of breaking the silence that followed Jackson's departure.

Andrew seemed to jump and focused his eyes on Jamie. "Did you know?" he asked.

Jamie thought carefully about his answer "I had my suspicions. I spoke to Casey after that first kiss; he made me look at why I was pursuing you so much. Usually if someone says no I shrug my shoulders and move on to someone else to hassle. But with you I just couldn't seem to leave you alone. I feel relaxed and happy when I'm around you, I don't like it when I'm apart from you. When I touch you or especially when you kiss me like you just did, I feel things I've never felt with any other person. Casey was the one to laugh and point out what everything I was saying added up to. He also pointed out that if I carried on as I was I would scare you away, so he told me to treat you as I would any of my close friends and slowly bring you round to more that way. I didn't intend that the first time I get you into a bed I would be unconscious."

By the time Jamie had finished and was hanging his head to avoid Andrew's eyes, Andrew didn't know whether to be angry, embarrassed or happy.

After a bit more thought he settled on embarrassed, as Casey had worked out what he and Jamie hadn't and happy as he had never thought to find a mate and it explained his reaction to Jamie. Slowly he reached out to touch Jamie's hand which caused Jamie's head to snap up. "You should know I've never had a boyfriend or even a girlfriend. Until you I have never even been kissed, what I'm trying to say is I would understand if you wanted someone more experienced. I'm sure..."

Jamie interrupted Andrew's babbling with another kiss, when they both came up for air he said, "I love the fact that I will be the one to teach you all about pleasure and love. We can take things as slowly as you want and you can call a halt to anything, anytime if you're uncomfortable. Deal?"

Andrew's smile lit up his face, "Deal," he said and pushed Jamie forcefully back on the bed for another kiss.

Things were going just fine until there was another knock on the door; both men growled in frustration and laughed as they made sure their clothes and the covers were straight before calling out to the person to come in.

Casey came in and stopped dead at the sight of them in bed and both looking very flushed.

"Well, I don't need to ask if you're feeling better then, do I?" he said to Jamie.

"I came to tell you that I have covered your shift for tonight and Jackson still wants Andrew to keep an eye on you so he is off as well. Jamie, you need to rest tonight so no leaving the house."

"Yes mom," Jamie said sarcastically, but really he was pleased about this turn of events as it meant he had a whole night with Andrew.

Casey looked between the two of them and rolled his eyes before setting off for bed.

Andrew immediately reached for Jamie and pushed him down on the bed. Before Jamie was all the way down, Andrew had Jamie's shirt undone and off. He leant over and started laying kisses over Jamie's chest and running his hands over every available patch of skin.

Jamie's head fell back, the sensations going through him were too many to name. He had never felt this way about anyone before, hell if anyone else had tried to push him down on a bed or any other surface he would have pushed back and made sure he was on top and in control at all times. With Andrew it was very different, he wanted to be under Andrew and make him happy, he felt no fear in allowing Andrew to top as he knew Andrew could be trusted with everything, even his heart...
