Gus sighed, letting the heat disappear from his tone. He bent and placed a kiss to the top of Nickās head.Ā āI love you sweet boy but I will not let you become less than I know you can be.ā
Nick smiled shyly up at Gus, grateful for the kiss and the I love you. It was still new and exciting and he would never get tired of hearing it.Ā āI love you, too, Sir,ā he said softly.Ā āBut I... I guess I should get back to studying.ā
