Missing you

The song on the data pad played low and muffed next to Steve's thigh as he caressed James forgotten shirt. Remembering all the times he had seen him wear it, all the times Steve had nuzzled his cheek into it, all the times he had cried into its soft cotton warmed by James skin and all the times he had listened to his heart beat just under the thin cloth. "I need you more than anything in my life, I want you more than anything in my life, I'll miss you more than anyone in my life, I love you more than anyone in my life" The song faded and the data pad beep indicating the end of the track. "Play again." Steve said with a shaky voice and tight throat from the tears.

Cortega - The Reason I love you is You

You're so beautiful But that's not why I love you And I'm not sure you know That the reason I love you is you Being you Just you Yeah the reason I love you is all that we've been through And that's why I love you    - Lyrics: Avril Lavigne - I love you

So I'm sitting here in a world of pain this evening and no matter what I do it wouldn't stop and the only thing that seemed to help was thinking about my boyfriend. He's laughter is more soothing then any tea could be and his smile more powerful then any pain reliever. He's been there for me through a lot of these attacks as of late and this is a little thank you to him. (He doesn't know I'm doing this, in fact he thinks I'm laying down in bed. Shhhhhh! Don't tell him!) Anyways, this image was quick but it really does get my feelings across. Steve doesn't mind being James damsel in distress and I don't mind being Eternal's. We just enjoy our mans arms. <3

Is this a trace of moonlight That shimmers through the darkness That covers my sleep tonight? Here all alone Drowned in nightmares And agony Be my guide Silverish light Touch my eyes Wake me With your kiss Dry away All these tears In my... ...Heart, oh moonlight Chase away all the fears in my mind Oh moonlight, cover me! Only your kiss will set me free Steve's heart was pounding out of his chest as he ran for Robert's turned back. He could see the Collector's moving closer to him. "ROBERT! OVER HERE!" Robert turned slightly toward him smiling. He spoke but Steve couldn't hear him but he could read his lips. I love you. And like that....he was gone. Steve filled with rage then charged and tackling the closest Collector violently punching it. It's blood was splattering in every direction with each pound of his fist. "GIVE HIM BACK! YOU SON OF A BITCH!" He screamed as he went to throw another punched but stopped dead when he looked down to find Robert under him bloodied by Steve's fists. Steve sucked in a sharp break. "Esteban..." Robert said as blood gushed from his mouth. Robert lifted his arm and touched Steve's shoulders. Tears rolled down Steve's face as he watched Robert struggle to keep his arm up to comfort him. "Esteban." He said again with love in his voice and eyes but suddenly he was ripped away from Robert and he screamed. "N-NO! NO! ROBER-" Steve stopped when he found himself on his back and face to face with James Vega. His face was torn with worry and he had Steve by both shoulders. "There you go, Esteban! It's ok, you're home! With me, guapo! It's ok!" James cupped his cheek and soothingly ran a thumb over the tears and sweat that covered it. He was shaking and couldn't focus. Where the hell was he? Where was Robert? He was glad to see James, maybe he could help him find Robert. James leaned down gently kissing his forehead and it was only then that Steve remember what had happen over 4 years ago. Robert was gone...forever. He brought a shaky hand up to his husbands tattooed chest needing something to ground him. "I-I'm sorry, James...I just-..I'm sorry..." James pulled him up right and into his lap, wrapping his strong arms around his shoulders and guiding Steve's head down to his shoulder. "Shhh, now, lindo. It's ok." James soothed and started rocking him slightly but Steve's mind wasn't letting him relax. He felt horrible. This was the 16th nightmare he had woken James up with this week. His nightmares always got bad when Robert and his anniversary came near. It had been 4 years and still he couldn't stop the self guilt and hate that filled him for losing Robert and James was paying for it. When Steve's nightmares got so bad he could sleep at all James would stay up all night with him even when he was worn out himself from a long day of training the new recruits in the N7 training fields but he never once complained. He would just smile and say 'He wasn't tried at all!'. How long was Steve going to burden James with his issues? How could he be so damn selfish? James never did anything to deserve such a shitty husband! "Esteban, stop." Steve looked up and James cupped his cheek again looking down at him with both love and understanding. The light James had turned on behind him lite him up like he was an angelic figure. His moonlight angel that lite up the night when darkness was all he could see. "Just don't, little Esteban. I'm not going anywhere and you aren't being unfair to me." Steve opened his mouth to protest but James ran a thumb over his mouth. "Look I'm not good with words you know that, I'm more the physical type." James flashed him a crooked smile full of teeth. "But listen to me, Esteban, it wasn't your fault. Dios, I know I sound stupid and shallow for saying that but, no, Esteban it really wasn't your fault. Fate can be a bitch, and there are times in which things are beyond what we can control." James stumbled over the words trying to be as soothing as possible but even with his struggle you could feel the love that they held. James gently rubbed Steve's cheek and whipped at the tears that still fell uncontrollably. James eyes were filled with such warmth, kindness, and care. It was impossible for Steve to take his eyes off his husband. When he tried to speak his throat would clinch shut and the words he tried to speak came out as straggled whimpers. James laid his forehead on Steve's and started rocking them gently while humming a gentle tone never once stopping his comforting strokes on Steve's check with his thumb. The tension in Steve was slowly draining at the low tone of James' song washed over his frayed nerves and suddenly the pain of his nightmares was a distant memory. They would come back to haunt him another night but he wasn't as scared of the thought anymore. Not with his husband, his light in the darkness, by his side. ----- For: Eternal <3 (Oh like you guys didn't see that one coming?! XD He just keeps putting story ideas in my head!)

Sos mi todo...

You're a falling star, you're the get away car. You're the line in the sand when I go too far. You're the swimming pool, on an August day. And you're the perfect thing to say. And you play it coy but it's kinda cute. Ah, when you smile at me you know exactly what you do. Baby don't pretend that you don't know it's true. 'cause you can see it when I look at you. [Chorus:] And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times It's you, it's you, you make me sing. You're every line, you're every word, you're everything. You're a carousel, you're a wishing well, And you light me up, when you ring my bell. You're a mystery, you're from outer space, You're every minute of my everyday. And I can't believe, uh that I'm your man, And I get to kiss you baby just because I can. Whatever comes our way, ah we'll see it through, And you know that's what our love can do. [Chorus] So, la, la, la, la, la, la, la So, la, la, la, la, la, la, la [Chorus:] And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times It's you, it's you, you make me sing. You're every line, you're every word, you're everything. You're every song, and I sing along. 'Cause you're my everything. Yeah, yeah So, la, la, la, la, la, la, la So, la, la, la, la, la, la, la Song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dI9EgzgXskg James had never felt this way from someone, never been attracted to someone like this. It wasn't just Steve's body he was attracted too, though it was a deficient plus, more then anything it was his mind, it was beautiful. Steve was so smart and even though sometimes he didn't understand what he was talking about he loved to listen to the passion flowing from him. It was this same passion that never failed to be in Steve's eyes when they made love. The same passion that pulled his lips closer to his, the same passion that made James' heart skip beat after beat.

The wonderful and awesome person that Eternal is wrote a fic to go along with one of my images! You guys should go check it out and give him love for being so awesome!

Bienvenido a casa, guapo

Steve wasn't sure how to speak Spanish but since being with James he had picked up on a little and when ever Steve used it, James would light up. So all week he had practice saying 'Bienvenido a casa, guapo.', over and over again just so he could welcome James back from his long trip. He sat there saying it again in his head waiting for the shuttle to arrival and if truth be told he was a bit nerves. Which made no sense! They had been dating since the end of the Reaper War, which unbelievably had been a year ago. So a whole year and James still gave him butterflies in his stomach. Steve smiled to himself and repeated the phrase in his head again but his thoughts were interrupted. "Esteban! Dios, is it good to see you!" Steve looked up and sucked in a quick breath, damn did James get even more gorgeous while he was away? Steve shock his head and started walking towards James with a smile. "Bienvenido a casa, guapo." James stopped, dropped his suitcase, and stared. For a moment Steve thought he said something odd, but then James light up and smiled that great big full-hearted smiled that could melt the haul off any ship in seconds, and launched himself at Steve. Grabbing him up into a great big bear hug that only James Vega could manage. I'll just leave this here! <3 Thank you Eternal for helping me with the Spanish, and all the inspiration! <3 Steve and James are ported by: Pademe4000 <3 All other modification by Me All characters are property of Bioware and the Mass Effect Team! <3 (Good work guys!)

My broken pieces You pick them up Don't leave me hanging, hanging Come give me some When I'm without ya So insecure You are the one thing, one thing I'm lookin' for I don't wanna be needing your love I just wanna be deep in your love And it's killing me when you're away Ooh baby, cause I really don't care where you are I just wanna be there where you are And I gotta get one little taste

Song by Maroon 5 - Sugar

And maybe one day I can proudly post his idea up here that sparked this wonderful concept!But for now, it's all mine! <3
