Hey. You’re hot. I’m not going to apologize.

[ It felt good to hear Nicky laugh like that. He looked genuinely happy like the decision didn’t weigh on him. That was a really good sign. ]

You are never too gross. Seriously. It was pretty sexy watching you lift boxes.

[ He squeezed Nicky’s arm and the muscles there. ]

From:

peace_inthe_violence

Mmm, I see. The real reason you asked me to come help, no doubt.

[He was still grinning, shaking his head a little. What was it about Booker and Joe that made him willing to venture so far out of the shell he'd hidden himself behind? If the him of two years ago could see him now, he'd be amazed.

And probably a little horrified. Mostly for the same reasons that current him was horrified. But he was trying really hard not to think about the state of his future in favor of focusing on the state of his present.]

Please tell me you brought the truck keys down with you so that you didn't have to go all the way back upstairs.

From:

transfuge

Yeah, I've got them.

[ Booker had to untangle himself from Nicky to get his keys out. He took the dorm key off and handed it to him. ]

This will get you back into the room. I locked the door. It shouldn't take me too long to return the truck. Hopefully.

[ Because every second with Nicky was precious now. It was before but now Booker could kiss and touch two things he was very big on. ]

Feel free to use my laptop, put on some music, you know. Just make yourself at home.

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[He took the key and tucked it carefully into his pocket, then rejoined their hands. As if he didn't want to lose Booker's touch just as little as Booker wanted to lose his.

Once they were in the parking lot, however, he glanced around for a moment before using Booker's hand to draw him forward so he could plant a shy kiss against his lips.

He was a lot better at kissing now, at least?]

Go, before I decide to waste the time and just go with you.

[He slipped out of grabbing distance before Booker could make that decision anyway, smiling softly as he headed for the building and the work he'd set himself to do there.

By the time Booker got back from returning the truck, Nicky had his laptop open and music playing. All of Booker's books were on the shelves, though not in any particular order, and he had moved on to setting up a little corner space as a kitchenette so that he wouldn't have to always eat in the commons.]

From:

transfuge

[ Even a shy kiss meant the world right now. Booker smiled softly after the kiss but resisted the urge to kiss him again. They'd end up making out against the side of the truck if he did that. ]

I'll be back soon.

[ It took half an hour to return the truck because traffic and the receptionist was slow. Booker did his best to be patient but Nicky was waiting for him.

Then he had to take public transportation back which slowed him down even more. He was a little impatient when he got back, taking the stairs two at a time to get up to his room.

And there was Nicky, making it a little home. Booker ached with love for him right then. ]

I wish you could stay. [ He winced a little because he hadn't meant to blurt that out. ] Sorry.

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[It could have only been more stereotypical if Nicky had been dancing with the music when Booker came in. He wasn't, though. Just setting up the coffee maker that he'd brought up just for this purpose. It wasn't fancy, but it would keep his boyfriend caffeinated without having to walk somewhere to get his fix.

He startled a little when Booker's voice broke his solitude, but it quickly eased into an amused smile.]

I doubt the school would let me just move into your dorm without actually being a student here.

[And it was far too late for him to register into classes now. Right?]

From:

transfuge

Yeah, they don't allow that.

[ But what Booker could see right now was a glimpse of his future. An apartment somewhere, Nicky puttering around the kitchen, and Joe in the background. An actual home something he and Nicky had never really experienced. ]

Okay, I guess I'll start on my clothes since you're handling that.

[ He really wanted to make out with Nicky but work first. That was more important even if it didn't feel important.

So, he grabbed a box labeled 'clothes' and dragged it over to the closet to hang stuff up. He didn't dress as punk as before but his wardrobe was still mostly dark colors and punk looking.

The only difference was Booker left the door to the room open so other folks could poke their heads in and say hello which happened a few times. Booker introduced himself and everyone instantly knew he was American and not native French.

And he introduced his boyfriend. There was a note of pride in his voice each time. ]

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[He was caught off guard the first time that Booker called him his boyfriend, but he was quick to wave and smile, introducing himself easily. After all, he was Booker's boyfriend.

Officially.

There was a part of him that was waiting for someone to judge them, someone to call them sinful or disgusting, but the worst they got was more than a little teasing about how Booker's taste was awful. 'He's Italian, though'. After the first time, Nicky started to tease back.

It was the tiniest dorm reserved for freshmen...but for that moment, it was home.]

From:

transfuge

[ Even with the interruptions they got through the boxes in a reasonable amount of time. It felt like it took longer to carry all the torn down boxes to the dumpster.

After the last trip Booker fell facedown on the bed with a groan. He was so tired but also felt weirdly satisfied getting it all done. ]

Moving sucks. I hate it.

[ He looked over at Nicky. ]

Thanks for helping.

[ He made grabby hands at him. Nicky should come here and snuggle him even though they were both sweaty from all the stairs.

Booker just wanted kisses and all the touches. ]

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[Stairs sucked. Moving sucked. But having the dorm all set up and looking like it was ready to be lived in? That was kind of awesome.

Nicky let the door actually shut behind him, taking a moment to lock it behind him so that no one could mistake the door for another, and then he was crossing the room to sprawl out on the bed.]

Of course. I wasn't going to let you do it all yourself.

We are absolutely disgusting, though.

[Which did nothing to stop him from rolling over enough to properly kiss Booker, cupping his cheek and nipping lightly at his lower lip.]

From:

transfuge

Oh yeah.

[ But he hadn't missed the way Nicky locked the door. Booker didn't think he was reading too much into things but he had some hopes for that.

He pushed himself up on an arm and tangled a leg between Nicky's while he leaned over to deepen the kiss. The nip sent a little jolt through his whole body and he responded by teasing his tongue across Nicky's lower lip. ]

The shower's down the hall. I think it's just a bunch of stalls. [ He pushed his hand under Nicky's shirt and gently brushed his fingers across his stomach just in case he wasn't okay with that.

Nicky just had to say stop and Booker would back off. He hoped his boyfriend knew that. ]

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[Except that he didn't want to say stop.

Booker stroked his fingers over his stomach and Nicky sucked in a sharp breath, teeth finding his lower lip to keep himself from making an awkward sound. What sound? He didn't really know and that was what made them awkward. He'd done the same thing before the two others had blissed out his mind enough that he hadn't cared.

The mention of the shower made him glance over at the door, but he made no move to get up.]

I..would you let me..I mean, what I did for you before. With my mouth. Would you let me do that again?

From:

transfuge

[ It was probably better they were quiet. The dorm was nice but it definitely didn't have sound proof walls.

Oh, wow, Nicky was not smooth at all but Booker felt the words grip him and take root in his brain. Nicky's genuine nervousness made it mean more. Everything with Nicky meant more because they loved each other. ]

If you want to. [ Booker kissed along his neck while his fingers kept tracing random shapes against his stomach. ] It was really good.

[ It was also a little awkward and uncoordinated but Booker remembered it as the best blowjob of his life. ]

You're okay with doing that without Joe around?

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[In his defense, giving blowjobs was only a thing that had been on his radar in the last month. Sex in general was just as new. If Booker wanted smooth talking whispered in his ears, he'd need for Joe for that.

And speaking of Joe...

His stopped mid-nod, looking a little sheepish with himself as he drew back the hand that had started to slid up Booker's shirt.]

Oh..you're right. We probably shouldn't do it without him here. I don't want him to get jealous and it's not really that fair for him, is it?

From:

transfuge

Uh, it's probably not fair to do this without asking him how he feels about it... you know, without him.

[ As much as he wanted to fool around with Nicky right now Booker loved Joe just as much. He didn't want to hurt Joe on accident because he was thinking with his dick and nothing else. ]

We can still kiss though, right? You're okay with that?

[ So, no blowjob today which... fuck that sucked but Booker hoped they could kiss and keep touching.

Then once they worked things out with Joe... maybe blowjob. Fingers crossed for that one. ]

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[And the same went for Nicky. He loved Booker and wanted to touch him more than he'd ever wanted to touch anyone, but he felt the same about Joe and the idea of hurting the other man just because he was impatient? No. He had lived without caring about sex for 17 years of his life, he could handle however much longer until Joe could join them.

Or at least until Joe got tired of their stupidity and set up a video call.]

Kissing should be fine, sì. After all, he kissed me at the airport when you didn't.

[And just to prove it, he kissed Booker again. It was long and slow, but chaste enough to not be too much of a tease. He hoped.]

Besides, maybe it is for the best. It can give me time to read up on all of this so I'm not as bad at it.

From:

transfuge

Shut up. I was scared.

[ Booker tucked his face against Nicky's neck to hide his embarrassed blush. He knew Nicky didn't mean to make fun of him but Booker was pretty embarrassed about it. He had hugged Nicky fiercely and should have kissed him but he froze. It was so stupid.

Booker took his hand out from under Nicky's shirt. Skin on skin was probably too much of a temptation right now. Kissing was good enough for now. ]

I think practice is the best way to get better at sex but if you want to read up while I go shower you can use my laptop.

[ He kissed Nicky again, then again, a few light quick kisses. Booker really liked this. ]

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[Booker wasn't the only one. Each kiss sent a little shiver of sparks down into his stomach and and he was very rapidly becoming addicted to the sensation.

Though, that would be assuming that he hadn't already been addicted after all the kisses from the summer before. Which he very, very much was.

Pulling back enough to rest their foreheads together, he smiled.]

As much as you'd like to come back from the shower to me watching certain videos, I also need a shower. Badly. I will need to use your soap, if you don't mind. I forgot to bring my own.

From:

transfuge

That would be really hot, yeah.

[ He wasn't going to deny how sexy he thought Nicky was. There was no point when his feelings were pretty obvious.

Booker nuzzled his nose against Nicky's. ]

You go shower first then. I don't trust myself to behave if we're in a shower together.

[ They wouldn't exactly shower together because there were separate stalls but knowing Nicky was right there and naked?

Booker only had so much self control. ]

You can use whatever of mine you want.

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[He hid his blush by kissing him again. Surely Booker couldn't notice if they were kissing, right?]

If Joe calls while I'm in the shower, go ahead and tell him. Just be sure to tell me his reaction.

[One more final kiss and then he was rolling to sit up and grabbing his bag. He stripped off his shirt and pointedly did not look at Booker's face as he moved around the room to gather the things he'd need for his shower. He ended up folding a towel over his arm and then stuffing a pair of boxers and a pair of sleep shorts into Booker's shower basket so that he didn't have to carry his entire bag with him as he slipped out of the room and went off to shower.]

From:

transfuge

Hey. I love you.

[ Booker didn't say it out loud often. He did stuff for his friends as a way to show he loved them. The words were a little hard to say but today Booker needed to stay it.

It was big what Nicky had done deciding to not pursue his life long dream. He had chosen him and Joe over the thing that guided his life for years. Booker needed to him to know just how much that meant.

Joe did text while Nicky was in the shower saying he was free. Booker brought up the video chat while he was sprawled in bed still and grinned to see his second boyfriend looking a little stressed out but happy. ]

He'll be back in a few minutes, I promise. He won't take long in the shower without us.

[ Booker gestured Nicky over as soon as he returned. ]

I didn't tell him yet. Get over here.

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[He was still a little damp when he got back, dressed only in the pair of shorts that he'd taken with him and his shoes. He'd have to bring a pair of shower shoes next time he came if he was going to be showering in the dorm showers regularly.

Dropping his dirty clothes onto his bag to be dealt with later, Nicky continued toweling off his hair as he came over to sit on the edge of bed, careful not to block Joe's view of their sprawled boyfriend. He smiling.]

Hello, mio amore. I hope your day wasn't too stressful.

[They chatted a little about Joe's portfolio until finally Joe couldn't take the suspense and demanded to know what Booker hadn't told him yet. Nicky chuckled, but reached back to take Booker's hand.]

I've decided not to start seminary. Or go into the priesthood.

From:

transfuge

[ Take his hand. Really?

Booker hugged Nicky from behind as he made his announcement grinning hugely. Joe looked stunned for a moment and then laughed happily. He wished he was there with them to celebrate.

But he turned serious quickly, asking if Nicky was sure and that if he needed anything he just had to ask. ]

He knows that. [ Booker nuzzled against Nicky's neck. ] He knows we'd do anything for him. And we're going to help him figure out what he's going to do instead.

Besides us.

From:

peace_inthe_violence

[Which, of course, got a laugh from Joe and a somehow still startled squeak from Nicky. Honestly, you'd think he'd be used to it by now. And yet, letting himself have this was still new enough that all the innuendos were all fresh again.

Including the 'So, does that mean I get to watch?' from Joe.]

You talk to him about that. I'm going to go put clothes on. Mother Mary...

[He pulled himself free carefully so that he could go hang the towel and go deal with his clothes and his bag situation.]

From:

transfuge

He's ours. I can't believe it.

[ While he was tempted to keep Nicky in his arms he let him go get dressed. Booker curled up on his side so he could see Joe and Nicky. ]

Actually, that's a thing the three of us should talk about. Nicky and I were going to fool around but we wanted to be sure that was okay without you.

[ It sucked honestly. Booker could see and hear Joe who looked so good and so happy but he couldn't touch him. Maybe because he was young and in love it hurt more than it should've.

They really should've been together to celebrate this moment. Booker figured they'd have to make up for lost time later. ]

I'd be okay with you and Nicky together if I wasn't there. Just so everyone in this room knows that.
