Much Needed Movie Night (Chester.)

"Yeah, you show 'em baby." Chester mumbled in his sleep, the perpetual smirk evident on his face. He had actually wanted to go out that night but sleep was suddenly so important that the moment he put his head on his pillow, he was a goner.

He hadn't expected any visitors so when he was suddenly jerked awake from his sleep to a blond bubble of joy straddling him in his bed, Chester was surprised to say the least.

He suddenly felt bad that he hadn't called or texted his best friend the whole summer but he had actually been busy back home, working with his dad. It had been an experience to be sure but he had sorely missed his blonde.

"Cam." He rasped out before clearing his throat and properly waking up. "Dude...what time is it?" He asked, sitting up in bed to reveal his not so hidden torso.

Looking around for a clock, he found one that blared a neon green 00:32 and he chuckled. "Not at all complaining but what in the hell you doin' here so late?"

Cameron's pout made Chester grin affectionately. "Dude, I just got back from home." He pressed the heel of his palm against one eye, determined to wake up to entertain the blonde.

The challenge behind Cameron's words had Chester growling. Were this anybody else, Chester would have tackled them back into bed and had his way with them. But when it came to Cameron, Chester had admirable restraint.

He didn't want to lose Cameron as his best friend.

"Hey! I'm not a little bitch." He growled and jumped out of bed. With no discernible motor skills functioning, it didn't take long for Chester to realise the bed was too big for him to jump out without falling flat on his face.

Graceful.

Scrambling up, he pounced on Cameron, giving the blond a noogie and pulling him out of the bedroom, caring less about his shirtless state. "Let me go get some popcorn and we're set." He bumped Cameron towards the stairs leading down to the living room to make his way to the bathroom.

Brushing his teeth as quick as possible, Chester went down to microwave a bag of popcorn.

"What movie did you get?" Chester called out from the kitchen as he waited for the popcorn to pop.

Chester tried his hardest not to use his powers on Cameron. Even though the blonde's mind was possibly the only mind he would ever want to read, he respected Cam's privacy. More than everybody else's anyway. This is why he would probably never find out about the light manipulator's feelings for him.

Which was a good thing, all things considered. Chester knew how he was in relationships and he didn't want Cameron, of all people, to be subjected to that kind of behaviour. The boy was just too kind for Chester. He was still baffled as to why Cameron even became his friend at all.

Cameron's comment about the shirt was met with a chuckle. "Done deal." He flexed his arms a little and let Cameron help him up, thanking him with a small grin.

"Dad thinks Alex is the best thing to ever happen to the family." Chester pointed out. He has told Cameron this so many times before. "He beats every other security system by a mile, according to Dad." Chester grinned, shaking his head with affection. He loved Alex and had grown up with the French man. He was practically family.

Hearing Cameron's answer in the kitchen, Chester chuckled at the choice. He had, indeed, seen it. Nothing about the movie scared him and he knew Cameron wasn't scared of anything so the movie would probably just be background music to their snuggling and chatting. If only his conquests could see this side of him, his reputation would poof into the darkness.

"Yeah. Lame choice but to each his own." Chester said just as the microwave timer dinged. Taking it out, he grabbed a huge metallic bowl and poured the contents of the bag and walked out to the living room. "Did you use the regular DVD player?" He asked, dropping beside Cam.

Kissing was not where his thoughts about Cameron stopped. It was a really good thing he was the one who did all the mind reading and not the other way around. Should Cameron ever catch wind of those thoughts, there was no way he would ever stay with Chester, he was so sure of that.

Chester chuckled at Cameron's wit and before he could say anything, the TV woke up half of South East Asia with it's noise. "Gah!" Chester jumped from the couch, thankfully with a death grip on the popcorn.

The redhead handed the bowl over to Cameron and rushed to the player and yanked the cable out. "Remind me not to put out the fancy stuff around you." Chester teased before taking out the DVD and putting it into the right player.

Walking back to the couch, Chester flicked his best friend's forehead and grabbed the remote to control the sound. "How was your summer?" Chester asked with a grin as the movie started. He slung an arm over Cameron's shoulder and reached over for popcorn.

"You're not sorry!" Chester laughed along with Cameron, rolling his eyes at the next statement. "Actually no. That Blu-Ray player does not accept regular DVDs. That you can blame Daniel for." The ginger pointed to the blond with a grin. The mention of his elder brother had Chester smiling softly. It had only been a day but he missed his family already.

"If by classy you mean dirty and unkempt then yes. You're the classiest man I know." He reached over to ruffle Cameron's hair, unconsciously lingering. He only moved away when Cameron spilled popcorn to the floor. "Oh Florence is going to love cleaning up tomorrow morning."

Instinctively tightening his hold against the blond, he moved his face to bury it into Cameron's hair. The light manipulator's intoxicating smell filled the telepath's nose and he sighed softly. The poking made him chuckle a little, unaware of the blonde's thoughts. "Not enough sleep, not enough food and running around town essentially being the errand boy for Dad's company would do that too."

In all honesty, Chester hadn't even spent a night with anybody out of his family members. Well, there was that one office boy...but that was something he wasn't about to revisit.

"Come on, it couldn't have been too bad. I'm sure you had a lot of lady friends to entertain you." Chester joked. It was easier to joke than to express his own emotions.

"It's not mine either!" He laughed again. "I'm pretty sure Daniel got the most expensive one from the store and wrapped it up as a birthday present." He said with a laugh. "The whole family says hi. They miss you coming around. They of course blame me for not bringing you over more often."

Giving out a bark of laughter at Cameron's statement, Chester shook his head despite agreeing with the sentiment.

"I'm pretty sure Florence appreciates being referred to as a man." He laughed. "Dude, come on. How many times have you come over here and personally talked to her?"

Rolling his eyes at Cameron's tease, Chester gave a half-assed reply before moving on with the story they were supposedly watching.

He's heard about Ravyn before. He never knew Cameron was in love with the girl. Still was even. The telepath tried hard not to let his anger show. Not even the part where Cameron said that they were over could quell the rage building up in Chester. "Huh...sad." He said simply. He never did have a good time hearing Cameron's conquests. He himself didn't much divulge though there were times in the past when he bragged to Cameron because he wanted to make the blonde jealous.

He stopped when he realised it didn't make him feel half as good as he thought it would. "That's what you thought I didn't want to hear? What tragedy." He rolled his eyes.

"Trust Daniel to gauge quality with price." Chester chuckled. He himself had the same practice but he was getting a little better at that, having mixed with more people who were more down to earth than his elder sibling ever had. "You wish." Chester bumped his shoulder against Cameron's at his statement. Of course, he was fairly confident in his family's love for him but had they wanted to adopt anybody, Cameron would fit perfect into their family and Chester knew that. Accepted that even.

"Sure, sweetheart." Chester teased, ruffling Cameron's hair and enjoying the blush and the brightness of his eyes in contrast to the dimness of the room. Chester smiled softly.

He wasn't aware of Cameron's assessment of his lack of reaction so he kept quiet, being the epitome of the phrase: "Ignorance is Bliss."

"Oh I'm sorry. I have to ask about all the seasons?" Chester asked in an amused tone of voice. "Okay, so tell me about the Fall. Wait, wait. Were there multiple people over the multiple seasons?" He asked, his grip on Cameron loosening a little.
