** Sign Language will always be written in ITALICS! This will be the last notice.

"Am I interrupting?" Austin says, crossing his arms as he leans on the door facing.

"What do you want, Austin?" Tim asks as he nervously runs his hand through his hair.

"I don't remember." Austin chuckles. "Oh, yeah. We're ordering pizza and just need to know what kind you want."

"Everything is fine, no anchovies." Tim answers.

Adam, who had been examining his own fingers, glances up.

"Yeah, that sounds good." Adam says giving the smirking man a nervous smile.

"Okay, good. Yall, uh, can get back to what you were doing." Austin giggles as he turns to leave the room.

Tim chuckles softly and shakes his head. 

"Well, that was embarrassing." Adam smiles as he looks at Tim's red cheeks.

"Definitely." Tim laughs. "I'm .. I'm really sorry."

"For what?" Adam asks as he brushes Tim's hair behind his ear.

"I only met you this morning and already asked if I could kiss you." Tim says shaking his head in disbelief.

"I'm glad you did. You're a great kisser." Adam chuckles.

"It's just that ..." Tim reaches over trying to find Adam's hand. Adam takes his hand and gently squeezes it. "I really like you and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't attracted to you."

Adam begins to chuckle causing Tim to furrow his brows and tilt his head.

"Are you laughing? You think that's funny?" Tim asks, not sure if he was being laughed at.

"No, you wanna know something?" Adam asks as he rubs Tim's bearded jaw. "The very minute I walked into this house and heard your voice, chills went down my spine. And then when I walked into the parlor, my eyes locked on you. Praying that was where that sexy low voice came from."

~~

"Guys?" Austin laughs as he rushes out of the elevator. "Yall ain't going to believe what I just saw."

"What? I'm never any good at guessing games." Chance says with a smile.

"Not even one little guess?" Austin pouts.

"Just tell us." Rob says.

"I just saw Tim and Adam kissing." Austin says with wide eyes.

"Seriously?" Chris asks with a shocked look. He knew his brother was interested in Tim but he never thought it would escalate so quickly.

"Yep. They were really getting with it too." Austin nods. "I kinda interrupted them."

"Well, I don't think we should rub it in their faces when they come up here." Chance says.

"What!? Not even a little fun?" Austin frowns.

"Babe, they are two very good-looking grown men who apparently are attracted to each other. Just leave it alone." Chance says.

"I'm definitely gonna have to learn sign language." Chris laughs.

"He's just saying that we need to mind our own business, more or less." Rob smiles. "Which I agree."

"Adam hasn't had much luck finding that right one. Maybe Tim is that right one." Chris says with a shrug.

"Yall are no fun." Austin sulks as he sits down on the couch. "Oh, by the way, they want everything on their pizza. Just no anchovies."

"I'll call it in." Rob says as he goes to the bar where the phone is located.

~~

"Well, are you ready to go face the lions in the lions' den?" Tim asks with a smirk as he stands up from the bed. "Cause I know Austin well enough to know that he told them he saw us kissing."

"Yeah. But first, can I have another kiss?" Adam smiles as he gets up and walks up to Tim.

"Sure." Tim says softly. He knew Adam's voice had moved closer but wasn't for sure where he was. "Uh, where are you?"

"Right here." Adam whispers as his lips met Tim's.

Tim's arm slowly slid around Adam's waist as Adam's hand found it's way into Tim's hair. Deepening the kiss.

"Mmm." Tim moans softly into the kiss as he pulls Adam closer.

They break the kiss and lay their foreheads together.

"Wow, that was .. that was very nice." Tim chuckles as he tries to catch his breath.

"I totally agree." Adam giggles.

"Uh, I have to make a confession." Tim says with a smile.

"And what's that?" Adam smiles as he slips his arms around Tim's waist.

"Satchmo is not scared of elevators and I don't need my cane to use the stairs." Tim says with a snicker. "I just wanted an excuse to hold on to your arm."

"Really?" Adam chuckles. "Hmm, sneaky."

"It worked though." Tim smirks.

"That it did." Adam laughs.

"You ready?" Tim asks.

"Need an escort?" Adam asks holding out his arm.

"Not really. But I'll accept it anyway." Tim smiles as he reaches out to find Adam's arm.

Adam reaches for Tim's hand and lays it on his bicep. A smirk comes across Tim's lips as he slides his hand down Adam's arm until he finds his hand. Intertwining their fingers.

They both smile as they walk down the hallway toward the elevator. After getting onto the elevator, Tim turns loose of Adam's hand.

"I don't guess we need to shock then too bad." Tim chuckles.

"Yeah, we'll leave them guessing." Adam laughs as the elevator door opens.

"The pizzas are on the way." Rob says.

"Cool." The couple says in unison and then snickers.

"I'll go down and wait for them." Chris says as he heads out.

"Chris said that he would like to talk to us and find out if there is anything that he and Adam needed to know about running this place and if there is anything about either of us that he needed to know." Austin says.

"About us? Like what?" Tim asks as he seems to get a little nervous.

"Just if any of us are on medication for anything and stuff like that." Austin answers.

"Oh. Okay." Tim nods, seeming relieved.

Adam bites his bottom lip as he watches Tim. He noticed a bit of nervousness and wondered what Tim was hiding.

"Let's eat." Chris says as he re-enters the lounge with several pizza boxes.

He spreads the boxes out on a dining room table that was in the corner of the room. As Chance grabs some plates and Austin and Adam get them all something to drink.

"Tim, I set your's and Adam's pizza in front of you." Austin says as he rearranges the pizza boxes.

"Thanks." Tim says as his hand feels it's way to find the box.

"Need help?" Adam asks politely.

"No, I got it." Tim smiles, shaking his head.

"I thought this would be a good time for us to talk about a few things." Chris says after they all got settled and begin to eat.

"Okay, let's get started." Rob grins.
