"You need to finish your meal baby."

"Nuh"

"Jamie"

"Nuh"

"Jamie, you barely eat anything."

"Jamie is fuul"

Vincent sigh, he squat down in front of Jamie who was sitting on a low chair with his food in front of him. "So you are not going to eat anymore?"

Jamie nods his head.

"That means you don't like it, my food. Is it too salty? Or doesn't taste good?"

Jamie shaked his head repeatedly. "Nuh, iss guud."

"But you are not eating. You don't eat well Jamie. You look.." Vincent stopped, feeling like he shouldn't say it. He stood up picking up the plates to take it away but stopped when he felt Jamie tugging at his trouser.

"A-are you angry wiff me?" Jamie stuttered as Vincent realised he is trying his best to stay big as he looked scared. Vincent quickly placed down the plate on the table as he squat down back in front of Jamie.

Jamie sniffs as he looks up at Vincent. "Y-you don't wike me anymoree." Jamie started crying as Vincent looked shocked not knowing what to do. "Jamie" He exclaimed in shocked pulling the older to himself before hugging him.

"Please stop crying. What made you think I don't like you anymore?"

"So you like me?"

"Ofcourse I like you." Vincent stopped hugging Jamie, staring at him. "I like you so much baby. And I was never angry with you. I totally will understand if you don't want to eat. I won't force you to. I was just worried."

"I want to eat, I just...can you feed me."

Vincent blinked his eye, "you want me to feed you."

"I mean, if you-yes."

Vincent was surprised, he knew Jamie was already back in his big space. He thought he only gets to take care of him when he gets little, he wasn't expecting Jamie to tell to take care of him in his big space too. Not that he doesn't want to, he would love to, he just wanted to be sure of things so he won't starts overthinking the whole situation. "You are big."

"I know. You don't have to feed me just saying." Jamie pout, "I actually don't eat much because it's boring eating alone so I gets used to it. I just felt like maybe I will have the appetite to eat now if you feed me. You can just forget I said th-uh"

Vincent had stabbed the bacon with fork pressing it against Jamie's lip. Jamie looked back at him in surprised not expecting him to do that.

"Eat up, the food is getting cold." Jamie flushed opening his mouth as he accepted the small piece chewing on it slowly.

Vincent continued to feed Jamie, taking his time to feed him slowly so he won't be full on time. The plate was empty in no time as he stood up with the empty plate dropping it with the other dirty plates in the sink making a mental note to wash them later.

He walked back to Jamie to see him resting his jaws his hands which were on the table. Vincent smiled as he sat down back at his initial position, on the floor in front of Jamie. He picked up Jamie's silly cup containing the fruit juice he had poured for him earlier as he raised it towards him.

Jamie narrowed his eye, his lip pressed in thin line not opening his mouth looking at Vincent in daze.

"Come on." Vincent urged.

"You know I don't need to use that right. And you also clearly knows I'm not in my little space right now."

Vincent smiled placing his hand on Jamie's little table before he lean closer to him. "But I feed you just now, you weren't in your little space either."

Both stares at eachother for a while before Jamie moves away clearly his throat softly before snatching the silly cup from Vincent sipping the juice fastly.

"Cute"

Jamie almost choked on his juice pulling it away from his lip before turning to Vincent flustered, "uh?"

"I said you are cute." Vincent repeated, loving how much effects he was having on the older. Jamie frown slightly, placing the cup back on the table before leaning towards Vincent, "Are you mocking me right now?"

Vincent also lean closer to Jamie, their nose almost touching. "You tell me first, how does me letting you know you are cute means I was kicking you?"

Jamie gulps noticing how close they were making him to pull back before looking away, "well..that's just...because..." he stuttered not finding the right choice of words to use. Vincent raised his hand up, placing it on the older lower jaw as he shifted his gaze back to him. "When I said you are cute, it means you are. I really find you cute. I always find you cute. Do you really think I found you funny because you were using the sippy cup? Is that why you thought I was mocking you?"

Jamie narrowed, turning his head away from Vincent, not wanting to answer the question. "Uhh, now that I thought about this, what time is it?"

Vincent frowned turning Jamie's gaze back to him, a little bit firmer. "Answer me Jamie. Do you think I looked like I was trying to avoid this conversation right now?"

Jamie noticed how serious Vincent was as he pulled down his hand from his face, holding it instead. "I think we should talk, I mean now that I am in my big space is the right time for the discussion."

"Great, I also had a lot to talk to you about." Vincent replied pulling his hand away from Jamie before standing up walking towards the living room. He sat down on the couch trying to calm himself down.

"Are you angry with me?"

He turned towards the older who was now standing beside him looking a bit worried. He wasn't angry or what so. He just felt sad and disappointed knowing Jamie had thought he was mocking him earlier. He just wanted to compliment him earlier because he truly find him cute when he drinks from his cup, he had no idea the older was going to take it the wrong way.

"You still don't trust me."

"I do."

"Then why did you thought I was-"

Jamie moved to his front, "it's because I had been mocked before, I didn't mean to make you feel that way. I am sor-uh"

Vincent had pulled him by his hand towards himself making the older to ended up sitting on his lap. Jamie made to pull away but Vincent wrapped his arms around his waist, tightening his grip on him a bit stopping him from doing so.

"Vincent."

Vincent slowly rest his head on Jamie's back. "I really liked you Jamie. Can you please trust me? I don't know what you've been through but I really am not like them. I will never be like them. Please believe me, uhh?"

There was a few seconds of silence between them before Vincent felt Jamie placed his hands on his slowly. "I do believe you. It wouldn't have gotten to this if I don't. It's just-maybe it's because this feels so unreal. I still can't believe you'd want to be my-"

"I like you." Vincent pulled Jamie making him to turn towards him. "A lot. I don't know how it started but I guessed it's from the very beginning. I had always had a soft spot for you since the beginning."

"That's why you want to be my caregiver."

"Yes. The thought of someone else being there for you like this makes me annoyed whenever I thought about it. I want to be the one there for you." Placing his left hand on the older's cheek before pulling him closer to himself with his other hand.

"Jamie...you can call me childish or unreasonable right now but I meant all what I said. I want you only to myself. And I am going to do everything within my power to prove to you that I am mature enough to take good care of you."
