I did not want to relax, while Elliott does all the work, so I went to sit on the island facing Elliott. I ask him if he needed help but he rejected my help telling me that I should just rest, and let him take care of me. Though I still felt bad for not doing anything so I told him and I was going to stay in the kitchen and keep him company.
"So how was your day today." I start to make conversation, at the moment it was the best thing I can think of. Also I really did want to know what he have been doing.
"Today, I worked on my manuscript for my next book and I had some meetings with directors. Just boring stuff." He said in a boring tone. The meeting with the directors was probably about wanting him to write a screenplay.
"Ooo. Are there more characters I can play as?" I joke with him. As I sneakily steal a cherry tomato to eat.
"Yes there are going to be more and new characters for you to act. I always write characters that will fit you and that's the only reason I write screenplays." Elliott seriously said as he pat my head. Then continue to chop vegetables.
"Wait really most of the drama and movies your wrote was the idea of me acting them? Why? Would you go through the trouble?" I question him thinking back to all the projects I have done. Though all the dramas he wrote I still had to audition, because I didn't want to just get it for being friends with him. But what if he told the director ps I have to act it or influence it?
"Because I only want to write script that you can act in and those that can make you shine brighter." Elliott told me like it was the obvious thing. But that's not right what about all the other actors that want to play in his screenplays.
"But that's not the point I been in the industry for so long and plus I already know the basics of acting." I point out to him. Telling to make him understand how I feel. It's like I didn't get to where I am with my own abilities.
"95% of the time, you audition for the roles anyways. So you got it with your own talent. Sure there are time when I did really want you to play a role that I wrote for you. However, you did get it but it's because of your own abilities okay." he explained to me trying to show me that it was all me that made me a top list actor.
"Are you sure? You had nothing to do with it? I mean don't get me wrong I am happy that I can be fore muse, but don't help me unless I ask. Okay." I look at him seriously making sure he promise me.
"I told the directors it's their job to cast the actors because my identity is unknown. Your the only the few people that know my identity anyways. So it's fine I'll always listen to you when you need me." Elliott hold my hands showing me, he is sincere.
"Okay. Now hurry up and finish making dinner." I try to rush him because my stomach is going to eat itself. He just smiled and nod as he continue to cook.
Elliott finish preparing the ingredients and started to cook. I just silently watch him boil the noodles and also make the sauce next to it. I just can't help think about how great he is to me. I remember the time he use to be dependent on me.
—- 8 Year Old Landon—-
It was there first day of school today. And Elliott first day in school since his family move back to the country. The Kang family thought it was a good idea for Elliott to go to the same school as Landon because they know each other and he can take care of him. The reason the family move out of the country to B country because Elliott was sick with bone cancer so the family went there for him treatment. That was when Elliott was six years old. Though since the two already knew each other before he became sick, Landon would visit him every break. Then two years later, the family move back to S country.
"Lan, do you think I will be okay?" 8yr old Elliott worryingly said as he hides behind 8yr old Landon. As they look at the seemly big school. With many other children refusing to go to school or crying for their parents. While other are jumping with excitement to make new friends.
"Yeah! You'll be fine you have me! And if someone bullies you or anything I'll protect you. With me by your side everything will be okay! your my best friend!" Little Landon happily tells him as he hugs him.
"Now let's go before we are late." Landon hold Elliott hand tight as they run to class.
———-~~~~~~———~~~~~~~———~~~~~
"Here is your food. And here is mines." Elliott puts Landon food in front of him. And Elliott takes a sit next to him on the island.
Landon smiles signaling a thank you. And grab his fork and starts to eat it. They continue talking about their day and other random things. They happily eat their dinner and chatted away. Once they finish eating Landon took the plates and wash them. Elliott went to watch some tv and coincidentally Landons drama was playing. Elliott looks at Landon making sure that he was still washing dishes. After, her confirm that he was still washing dishes, Elliott took out his phone and told a picture of Landon in the drama. He took a picture of the scene where Landon was a king so he was sitting on his throne with a dominant and charismatic aura, as he listens to commoners problems. Then he puts his phone away, when he heard Landon coming his way. And he change the channel, because he didn't want Landon going to work mode with his notes and everything.
"Hey so what room do you want?" Landon ask once he was in view of Elliott. Then sitting next to him.
The house is a two story has five rooms and six full bathrooms. In the first level, An open kitchen that is connected to a dining room. A living room that is in front of the kitchen, leading to the backyard with a pool and garden/grass area. A decent size room with bathroom in it. A laundry room, next to it is a guest bathroom, and the garage. The second level, is master bedroom, a study room, and two decent guest rooms all rooms with their own bathroom. And a lounge place by the stairs.
"The one with you." Elliott simply said like it was the obvious thing.
"What? Why?" Landon sits up straighter as he look at Elliott. While he was just watching the TV like there were no problems.
"I think we should just sleep together. No reason not to, plus it could be like when we were kids sleeping together. Also the bed is big enough." Elliott point out of the facts and reason Landon should not reject the idea.
"But, I.. want.. my own space" Landon stutter, as he try to convince himself. As Landon was coming up with reason not to share a room, Elliott pulls Landon into his arms. Landon is now just laying on top of Elliott, making then look at each other face to face.
"Look it's not that bad to be next to me. Plus I want to sleep together because your mine. And I want what's mine with me." Elliott smile sweetly up at Landon, as he plays with his hair.
"Not yet. Also I'll go we're ever my stuff is at." Landon said as he cross his arms, looking away from Elliott. As he pouts and then smirk thinking he won.
"While your stuff is with mines in the master bedroom." Elliott said as he draw circle on Landon's leg and looking at him for his reaction. Landon eyes widen making Elliott chuckle and then he smirk wait for Landon's next move.
Meanwhile, Landon can feel his heart skipping beats with every touch and loving gesture Elliott throws at him.
"Okay. Let's sleep together." Landon gets up firsts and runs to the room. Leaving Elliott surprise because he didn't think it would be so quick for him to agree.
