Three days later, and Otabek found himself fighting for the bathroom so he could fix his hair. Seung gil kept barging in asking if his clothes were ok.
"Dude… you're fine!" Otabek exclaimed.
"This was something mom had sent me… didn't know if I should wear it or not," Seung gil muttered.
"Your clothes are dorky either way you go," Otabek pointed out.
"Fuck you," Seung gil muttered. "At least my jeans don't have holes in them."
Groaning, Otabek went back to combing his hair. He never understood how clueless Seung gil could be at times, but it kind of worked him.
"Ok, we got to get going or we will be late," Seung gil said, coming into the bathroom and grabbing Otabek's cologne.
"Hey!" Otabek cried out.
"If we wear different colognes it could clash," Seung gil stated, as Otabek grabbed back his cologne bottle.
"Dude… that is weird! Wear your own!"
Tilting his head to the side, he could tell Seung gil was thinking it over. "Well yeah… maybe you are right. Let me just put a little of mine on…"
What the hell was he even thinking- this was all weird. He had no idea how he allowed some blond haired, green eyed hottie that came into the cafe every day talk him into this.
Sadly, it didn't take much convincing. Once they were ready, they headed out, together to go meet their date.
"So how is this gonna work?" Otabek asked as they got to the cafe, waving at their coworker behind the coffee bar.
Seung gil shrugged his shoulders. "Hell if I know."
Before they could get too deep into conversation about it all, the bell on the door jingled and Yuri came walking in, grinning at them both.
"Well don't you two look nice!" Yuri exclaimed. "I'd order a drink, but I only like the ones you two make."
"You hate Otabek's," Seung gil pointed out.
An arm laced through his and Yuri leaned into him. "But I like the effort he takes."
It was then Yuri took Seung gil's arm and they headed out. "So where too?"
"We were thinking something simple," Seung gil replied.
"Dinner and a movie," Otabek added.
"Sounds great!" Yuri chirped, holding both their arms a bit tighter as they walked a few blocks over for dinner.
Otabek really thought it would all be a battle over Yuri's attention. He found out during dinner it wasn't. Yuri stole food from both their plates (never offered up any of his), the conversation flowed easily- it was nice. Otabek felt relaxed and oddly at ease. He even saw Seung gil smile a couple times and even laughed along at Yuri's lame jokes.
Somehow- it was all working.
When it was time for the check to come, him and Seung gil took it, and each put in money. Yuri offered to throw out the tip for the server.
At the movies it was just as easy. They found themselves seats- Yuri between them. Each held one of Yuri's hands, and they relaxed into the movie. At a point, he heard a slight smacking of mouths and noticed Seung gil and Yuri were kissing a little bit. A small squeeze of Yuri's hand and he smiled when Yuri squeezed back. He didn't feel any jealousy.
A little while later, he found himself on the receiving end of Yuri's mouth. He had his hand in Yuri's hair, knowing Seung gil held Yuri's other hand- but it was ok. At the end of the movie, they all had swollen lips and blushed faces. Seung gil gave Otabek a knowing smile as they walked Yuri back to his dorm room on campus.
"I had fun tonight," Yuri said to them both, letting go of their hands. "I hope we can do this again sometime." Grabbing the front of his jacket, Otabek was pulled into a crushing kiss with Yuri. He felt Seung gil next to him, and when he peaked his eye open, he saw Seung gil kissing at Yuri's neck. A gasp and Yuri was turning his head into Seung gil's mouth- and this time he was the one kissing at Yuri's pale skin. "Seriously… let's do this again… soon," Yuri breathed out.
All they could do was nod their heads as Yuri slipped into his dorm room.
"That wasn't weird," Seung gil stated as they walked back to their flat.
Otabek could only agree. How the hell did this happen?
It just seemed to… work.
A few days later at the coffee shop, Yuri was twirling his finger through the foam in his cappuccino, smiling over at them. Both him and Seung gil where in good spirits that morning, and Yuri breezing through always helped that.
"So I got a little problem," Yuri stated.
"What's that?" he asked.
"So my stupid roommate is having his girlfriend come stay the night with him," Yuri said, looking at them both. "And he told me to find somewhere else to sleep tonight."
Otabek and Seung gil both looked at each other. Seung gil shrugged and nodded his head. A deep breath and Otabek smiled at Yuri. "You can stay with us."
"We have a couch," Seung gil said.
"And beds," Otabek added, elbowing Seung gil.
A grin and Yuri played with the foam a bit more in his cappuccino. "Perfect! You two saved me!"
"Well we wouldn't was you just staying anywhere," Otabek said.
"Maybe we can have some fun too," Yuri added with a wink. "Maybe some wine?"
"Red or white?" Seung gil asked Yuri.
"Definitely red, and sweet," Yuri exclaimed.
Seung gil nodded, and Otabek winked over at him.
They had spent all afternoon cleaning their flat- not that they were slobs or anything, but they wanted to tidy it up. Seung gil had run to the store and Otabek was picking up any stray clothes in his room.
How was this all going to work?
Otabek did not want to think too deeply on everything- that was Seung gil's job to overthink things. And knowing Seung gil- he already had thought up a million different scenarios.
He was glad they kept liquor in the flat- he felt he was really going to need it. Once deeming his room as picked up as it was going to get, Otabek went to the kitchen to pour himself a drink.
"Drinking already?" Seung gil asked as he came through with a bag of groceries.
"Just one drink," Otabek replied, knocking the drink back a lot faster than he intended too.
"You're thinking way to much on this," Seung gil pointed out.
"And you're not?" he asked.
A shrug and Seung gil was putting away the stuff he got at the store. "Just let the pieces fall into place."
How was it, between the two of them, that Seung gil was the calm one?
Laughter broke out all through dinner. Yuri had brought over pizzas, and they opened the wine. Finally relaxing a bit, Otabek was seated on the couch, with Yuri between the two of them. Yuri was currently in deep into one of his 'nightmare roommate' stories that had them all rolling with laughter.
There were also small little things he did that stirred something inside Otabek. A hand on his knee, or Yuri even brushing Seung gil's hair off his forehead- he found he relaxed into it all. He did not mind the attention he got, or when Yuri turned his attention to Seung gil. Even after the pizza was gone (he was shocked at how much Yuri could eat) and they settled back more comfortably on the couch- Yuri leaned up against him, his legs in Seung gil's lap, while they sipped their wine.
Otabek found out that Yuri thrived on being the center of attention- which was something him and Seung gil were ok with. They did not mind drifting to the background. It only made Yuri more lively and the more he sipped his wine, the better his stories got.
As their glasses emptied, Otabek got up to open another bottle. When he grabbed everyone's glasses, Yuri hopped up to join him. The moment they were in the kitchen, he found himself pressed back into the cabinets and Yuri kissing him deeply. When Yuri pulled back, he was smirking at him, kissed his cheek and walked back out to the living room.
Taking a moment to catch his breath, Otabek ran his finger through his hair. This was the part he was unsure of. He didn't think it would be a 'sharing' type deal as it seemed Yuri was equally into them both. Filling their glasses, he walked back out to the living room where he found Yuri straddled in Seung gil lap- making out.
Setting the glasses down, he wasn't sure what to do. A hand being held out by Seung gil and Otabek took it, moving to the couch. Sitting next to Seung gil, Yuri leaned over, pressing his mouth to his. Otabek didn't think twice about Yuri kissing Seung gil just a second before- no, he kissed Yuri back, wrapping his fingers through his hair. Smacks of Seung gil's mouth on Yuri's neck and he felt teeth lightly on his bottom lip.
"Is this going to be ok with you two?" Yuri asked, his mouth just barely touching his.
"We are fine," Seung gil replied.
Yuri leaned back a bit and looked at both of them, a hand on each of their cheeks. "Have you two ever…?" Yuri trailed off.
"Once," Seung gil answered.
"Oh?" Yuri asked.
Otabek nodded his head, then Yuri's hand was gone from his cheek, and lips where on his mouth. This time they were not Yuri's, they were Seung gil's. Otabek didn't remember too much from the night they had, but it felt like they had always been kissing when Seung gil kissed him.
"Fuck! That is hot!" Yuri gasped.
When Seung gil pulled away, his eyes had questions in them. Otabek smiled at him and winked.
"I've wanted to do that since that night," Seung gil whispered to him, then leaned in and kissed his lips again.
"Are you two…?" Yuri trailed off.
Turning back to where Yuri was still gracing Seung gil's lap, they both smiled at him. Reaching over, Otabek took each of their hands and smiled. "We are all going to be fine."
At that moment, looking at both of them, he felt everything fall into place.
