As soon as they finished eating Jeff and Punk took off on the road again. Jeff sat beside Punk in the passenger's seat, biting his lip as he looked out the window. "What are you worrying about, babe?" said Punk, glancing over at him.
Jeff sighed and tucked a strand of red hair behind his ear. "It's gonna get out."
"It already is out," said Punk. "And that's ok. There's no reason for us to be sneaking around anymore. I promise you none of the guys are going to judge you, and you already ignore hate comments from the fans anyways."
"This is different," said Jeff.
"How? What makes this different from any other relationship you've been in?" said Punk.
"You know what," said Jeff. "This won't be like people telling me I'm a bad wrestler, this is people telling me I should burn in hell for sleeping with you."
"Don't let that get to you. You know they're just ignorant," said Punk.
"I know. That doesn't make it hurt any less," said Jeff.
"Don't let it get to you like that, you deserve to be happy," said Punk.
Jeff set his phone down on the dashboard and sighed softly. He knew Punk was right, but it didn't make it any easier. It's not like he had a choice now, though. Those pictures were everywhere. He could only lie so many times before people stopped believing the bullshit. 'Well, at least there's no more secrets,' Jeff surmised. No more having to hide from people, covering things up, lying to everyone. It should be relieving, but it wasn't. It was terrifying. 'This. Sucks,' thought Jeff. His phone vibrated on the dash and Jeff saw he had a message from Jay. Jeff opened it and scanned over the text, getting a small smile. It said, "Dude, I thought I was clear about the whole not sleeping with him thing."
Maybe this wasn't so bad. Jeff immediately texted Jay, "What can I say? He's good." He replied, "Spare me the details," and Jeff sat back against the chair with a small smirk. He really, really hoped everyone took the news like Jay did.
After another full day of driving, they made it to Jeff's house and Punk parked next to his driveway. Punk tapped his fingers on the steering wheel as Jeff unbuckled his seat belt. "Sooooo, can I-"
"Come on," said Jeff, cutting him off with a small smile. Punk chuckled and followed Jeff into the house. He looked around and smiled, seeing next to nothing had changed since he'd last been here. They both decided to just get to bed since they were exhausted. Punk stared up at the ceiling as he lied in Jeff's bed, with Jeff snuggled around his arm. 'How did I get this lucky?' thought Punk, twirling a strand of Jeff's hair around his finger. He couldn't mess this up again, he wouldn't. Punk rolled onto his side and kissed Jeff's forehead softly before going to sleep. He woke up in the morning feeling soft kisses on his collar bone, and smirked when he saw Jeff gently nibbling on it. "Good morning to you, too."
Jeff looked up at him with a smirk and bit his bottom lip. Punk immediately felt a reaction in his groin and pulled Jeff up to straddle him. He knew that lip bite anywhere. That was Jeff's "I'm ready to go" lip bite. Punk pulled Jeff's shirt off and tossed it aside. Jeff's lips returned to his collar bone, placing soft kisses and bites along it. Punk could just feel the hickeys forming already but he was beyond the point of caring.
Jeff's hands slid under his t-shirt and quickly pulled it off. He lent down to whisper "You're so sexy," in Punk's ear and ran his hands up Punk's chest. Punk had idea what brought this on, and was slightly questioning if he was just dreaming, but there was no way in hell he was complaining. He really had no time to think about it anyways before Jeff's lips made their way to his. Punk could feel the sparks flying as he kissed back. He slowly drifted his hands down to the waistband of Jeff's pants and pulled them down his legs. Jeff kicked them aside and Punk moaned at the feeling of Jeff's smooth skin under his fingers. Just as Jeff dipped the tips of his fingers into Punk's pants there was a knock at the door. They both pulled away and looked towards the door. "Matt?" said Punk.
"Probably," said Jeff, climbing off of his lap.
Punk looked at Jeff's state of undress and got up. "I'll get it." He tucked his erection away as best as he could and pulled his top back on before answering the door. As soon as Punk opened it Matt was in the house, and he did not look pleased. "You gonna tell me what the fuck's going on here?"
Punk bit his lip, trying to think of a reasonable answer. He didn't know if Jeff necessarily wanted to start telling people yet, but he really didn't see a way around it right now. "It's not too unlike what it seems."
Matt crossed his arm over his chest and stared down at the carpet. "So, you're… and he's…"
"Bi?" said Punk. "Yeah."
"I was going to say gay, but, yeah," said Matt.
"We still like girls, we just like each other too," said Punk.
Matt took a deep breath. "How long?"
Punk bit his lip a little and rubbed the back of his neck. "Oh, you know, give or take, a few years."
"WHAT?!" said Matt, looking up at him.
"We didn't want to say anything," said Punk. He saw Matt's eyes travel down to his neck and widen. 'Shit!' thought Punk. 'I forgot about the hickeys!' He didn't even have a chance to explain before he took a hard slap to the face.
"You're fucking my baby brother?!" Matt yelled.
"I thought that was implied!" said Punk, holding his stinging cheek.
"No that was not implied!" said Matt. He then grumbled. "I can't fucking believe this. I should have fucking known, the way he used to talk about you like you were the greatest thing ever." Matt looked more pissed than Punk had ever seen him, and he had seen a lot of Matt these past few years. "You couldn't have told me?"
"It wasn't even like that at first," said Punk. "I would have told you, but we were just fucking around-"
"Fucking around?!" said Matt. "You were just fucking around with my little brother? What kind of piece of… you are scum, you know that?"
"Look, the point is, Jeff is happy," said Punk. "Isn't that all that matters?" He was trying very hard to win Matt over, even just a little bit.
Matt took a deep breath as Jeff came down the stairs. "Matt-"
"Don't say it, I already know everything," said Matt. Jeff looked over at Punk, who gave him a small sheepish grin.
Matt turned to Punk and gave him a hard stare. "If I find out you ever do anything to hurt him, even in the slightest bit, consider this over."
"You won't," said Punk. With that Matt left and Jeff came down to stand next to Punk.
"I assume he wasn't pleased?" said Jeff.
"No, but it seems he approves, for now," said Punk.
"Really?" said Jeff. Punk nodded and he grinned and threw his arms over Punk's shoulders for a hug. "I guess it's not so bad for people to know."
"And now I can make out with you in public," said Punk, getting an eye roll from Jeff. "Oh you know you're looking forward to PDA too."
Jeff got a small smirk. "Maybe a little. So, who's going to confirm the relationship?"
"I guess I'll take the heat from Vince for it," said Punk, making Jeff chuckle.
"I could do it, you get in enough trouble over your twitter as is anyways," said Jeff. This certainly wouldn't be the first time Punk would get called to Vince's office over a tweet.
"You sure?" Punk asked.
Jeff nodded his head. "You know Vince likes me more than you." Jeff locked eyes with Punk. "This I a big step you know?"
"I know," said Punk, without a single ounce of hesitation.
Jeff smiled. "Well then, let's get in trouble."
"I love it when you're naughty," said Punk, as Jeff pulled away from him.
"How do you think Vince will react?" said Jeff.
"Well, if he doesn't have a heart attack, he'll probably kill us," said Punk, as Jeff grabbed his phone.
"Good, maybe he'll make you stop beating me up," said Jeff, and Punk smirked. "So, how do I make a tweet like this?"
"Give me the phone," said Punk with a chuckle. "We'll just pretend you're the one who leaked it."
Jeff stick his tongue out at Punk as he gave him the phone. "I could be as bad as you if I wanted to."
Punk ran a hand under Jeff's chin as he formed a tweet. "Sure, Jeff. Sure you could."
Jeff got a dirty smirk. "How about we go back to the bed and I'll show you."
