Chapter 305: A reward (m)Richard wasn’t able to keep his composure for much longer after that, his pheromones spreading and tiredness overcoming him. Dr. Liu came in, helping Richard back while making sure he was okay as he laid back down. Andrew said his goodbyes, said that they would talk about this more over the next coming days, before he left the room.
Outside, Maxwell was still working away, a small smile on his face when he spotted Andrew. Andrew came to stand near him and watched as Maxwell appeared to finish what he was working on and close the laptop.
"How was your chat with Richard?" He asked and Andrew sighed.
"Emotional." He admitted and Maxwell reached out, grabbing Andrew’s hand for a second to give it a squeeze.
"I can only imagine. Do you feel better? Does he?" Maxwell asked and Andrew swallowed. He glanced back at the room where Richard had fallen asleep, Dr. Liu was checking on a few things while the man was unconscious.
"I...think so. I hope I was able to give him some comfort." Andrew said slowly, before he sighed. "We need to head back to the house to change." Andrew murmured and Maxwell’s smile widened.
"Mm. Maybe not. I don’t have any meetings today, so I’m fine wearing just this. You can just pull on your jacket to cover up your clothes. Plus, I’m feeling pretty tired today. If I leave the office again, I might just stay home." Maxwell told him and Andrew froze. He felt his eyes widen as he took in what Maxwell was wearing.
He was wearing a decent pair of pants, and Andrew’s oversized clothes. He wasn’t serious, was he? Was he pulling his leg? His Maxwell, the same Maxwell who had Andrew change into a different suit at his own brother’s wedding, wanted to wear...Andrew’s clothes to work?

"You...you’re fine with what you’re wearing?" Andrew asked carefully, unsure, and Maxwell gave a cheeky grin before turning his head towards his shoulder and pressing his nose against the fabric, inhaling.
"It smells like you, so yeah. I’m fine. It feels like I’m getting an Andy hug all the time." Andrew swooned.
"You can just ask for a hug." Andrew told him and Maxwell’s expression was slightly disbelieving.
"If I asked for a hug as often as I wanted it, we would never be apart." Andrew felt that response right in the heart. Holy, the man knew how to get to him. Andrew glanced around, checking the area around him before he bent, pressing a kiss to his cheek, a plan forming in his brain.
"Awe. That’s adorable, and I feel like we could figure something out if that’s what you wanted." Andrew said. Maxwell chuckled, shaking his head as he got to his feet, forcing Andrew to take a step back.
"You’re too damn agreeable. What if I get spoiled?" Maxwell teased and Andrew felt his lips turn up.
"Then get spoiled. I don’t mind. It’ll make it impossible for anyone else to try to step into our relationship." Andrew said and Maxwell smirked.
"Who would dare?" He asked and Andrew gave Maxwell a look.
"Either a really stupid, or brave idiot." Andrew told him and Maxwell started to laugh, his blue eyes warm as he gazed upon Andrew.
"You’re too much. Alright, are you ready to head out?" He asked and Andrew nodded. Maxwell reached for his hand, his other holding the laptop and Andrew took it willingly. Andrew waved goodbye to the other re
