Will walked through the town square with an extra jaunt in his step. Today had been a good day. Things at work with EJ were going great Sami hadn't gotten involved in any new mischief. The kids were doing well- Johnny starting up soccer and the girls in dance classes. Even Will's courses were going smoother.
Best of all, Will started growing confident in himself.
Despite his initial reservations, Alex had been influential in Will's progress. In his words and in his actions. He never let Will get lost in his own head. Always there to ground him even if it was to tell Will something as simple as getting his head out of his ass.
Will enjoyed it. Something about Alex's blunt, gruff speech endeared him to Will. It left no room for interpretation at least. Will knew where he stood with Alex. It left Will with a lot of confidence. The more time he spent with Alex the easier it was for Will to see the good in himself.
At the same time, Will and Sonny grew closer as well. If Will wasn't with one brother he was with the other. It was rare for Will to hang out with both at the same time. Sonny and Alex just couldn't get along for long. It was easier to prevent arguments and not force them together.
Both often complained about the other to Will. Determined for him to see whatever flaws one brother saw in the other. Will didn't know why. He assumed it was a brother thing and left it at that.
The night before at Alex's hotel was an anomaly. Even then, it ended in resentment.
Tonight, Will had plans to meet up with Sonny. Whenever they'd hang out before, it was always spontaneous. They didn't get to set out a specific time often since Sonny was so busy at Common Grounds. For some reason, Will felt like tonight was important.
That was why Will put a little more effort into his appearance than usual. He wore his nicest pair of jeans and took the time to iron them. He even put on a collared shirt and pressed it to perfection. He spent more time on his hair and even splashed on some cologne.
Will didn't even know why. It just felt like the right thing to do.
Walking into Common Grounds, Will noticed Sonny wasn't ready yet. Sonny flitted behind the counter, apron in place. Knowing he had time, Will headed to the bathroom.
After doing his business, Will took a long time in front of the mirror. He examined his hair and his face. He felt good about his appearance but nervous to see Sonny.
It's just Sonny. I see him all the time. Nothing to worry about. Nothing at all. I can do this. I don't even know if it's a date or not.
Gathering his courage, Will walked out of the bathroom. He hoped Sonny was ready to go. If they wanted to make the movie they would need to leave soon. But standing in front of the counter were two of Sonny's good friends, Dustin and Kareem.
Will didn't want to interrupt them or seem rude. Instead, he moved to a small table just to the side of the counter. With the placement of several towers of cups, they couldn't see Will. He heard everything they said, though.
"You guys always give me the most complicated orders," Sonny complained, wiping sweat off his brow with his forearm.
"What like you have plans?" Dustin said. "You love our complicated orders and you know it. You can't resist a challenge."
"I do have plans for your information," Sonny remarked. "I'm going to the movies with Will."
"Ah," Kareem said as he shared a look with Dustin.
"What?" Sonny asked, pulling levers and adding various squirts of flavor into Dustin's cup.
"What, what?" Kareem asked, not looking Sonny in the eyes.
"What was that look you two shared?" Sonny demanded.
"Well, it's just-you know-Will," Dustin answered giving Sonny a small smile.
"What about him?" Sonny asked, stirring the contents of the cup with a large spoon.
"You know how he is," Dustin shrugged and waved his hand around.
"Meaning what?" Sonny stopped what he was doing to stare between his friends.
"He says he's gay but he doesn't act like he's out," Kareem offered.
"He acts like he'd rather be anything but gay," Dustin added.
"Leave him alone," Sonny said, going back to the drink. "He's figuring himself out."
"He hates himself and it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't hate all us too," Kareem crossed his arms.
"No, he doesn't," Sonny dismissed. "He doesn't hate anyone. It's not in his nature."
"You can at least admit he doesn't have his shit together," Dustin urged, something in his voice changing.
"Why should he? He's only 18," Sonny said. "You two expect too much."
"Well, sorry," Kareem responded. "But someone with Will's clout could help bring awareness to our little community. And instead, we get some self-hating, flaky, closet case."
"Yeah, I mean, sure he's hot but he's not worth it, Sonny. You should focus on Brian instead," Dustin said.
"Oh, yeah," Kareem agreed. "Brian's so hot and so into you. Why waste your time on some kid?"
"You two don't know what you're talking about," Sonny slammed a lid on Dustin's drink before starting on Kareem's.
"Not to mention," Dustin said with an innocent smile, "Will's mom is a train wreck."
"Don't forget the rest of his family and his boss," Kareem stated.
"Especially his boss. Why'd you want to be around someone so close to the DiMera family anyway?" Dustin wondered.
"Plus, he doesn't seem like he's all there upstairs," Kareem said, nose up in the air.
"You guys are idiots," Sonny responded in a low voice. "You don't even know Will."
"We know enough," Dustin shrugged. "I'm just saying Brian seems more your speed."
"He's got a future. Plus, he's super hot," Kareem pointed out. "I mean, why wouldn't you go for it?"
Will didn't bother to stick around to hear Sonny's answer. He heard enough.
Will didn't understand how they could be so nice to Will's face when they thought all those things about him. It left Will unsettled and offended. He liked Sonny's friends or he did. They were so welcoming when Will first met them. Neither of them ever gave any indication that they spent all their time judging Will. He had no idea he was so disliked.
I didn't realize there was some rule book I should have followed. A step-by-step guide to coming out that'll please everyone else.
Sonny didn't even defend me, not really. He didn't even tell them anything about not liking Brian either. And why wouldn't he like Brian? He's smart and hot and put together. Unlike me who's nice to look at but stupid or whatever they said.
I didn't realize I hated everyone. Then there's my family and EJ. I just can't win.
Will didn't feel up to a night with Sonny anymore, not now.
As a large group of high schoolers walked inside, Will snuck out. Hands in his pockets, Will headed home. He didn't feel much like being in public now either.
Half-way home, Will realized he needed to tell Sonny something. He couldn't just stand him up. So, Will stepped off the main walkway and sent Sonny a text.
At least no one can say I'm flaky this time.
Will shoved his phone back in his pocket as he started walking. He took a few steps before he heard a voice calling his name.
"Yo, Horton!" Alex yelled from the opposite side of the street.
Will made sure it was clear before jogging over to Alex. He had a girl in a too-short dress next to him. A girl that didn't look too pleased Alex's attention wasn't on her.
"Hey," Will said, voice soft.
"Thought you were going to the movies?" Alex asked, taking a drag of a cigarette.
The girl with him coughed, fanning her face when Alex blew the smoke away from Will and right into her face.
"Do you have to do that?" she asked. Her voice deeper than Will anticipated.
Alex didn't bother responding.
"Things change," Will shrugged, head down.
"Huh," Alex grunted, eyeing Will.
"Are we still going?" the girl asked with a huff. "And put that out. I'm gonna reek of smoke."
Alex gave her a defiant look and took another long pull on the cigarette.
"Let's go," Alex said, tilting his chin to the right.
When the girl motioned to follow, Alex held out his arm to stop her.
"Not you, him," Alex pointed at Will.
Will lifted his head and his eyebrows. The girl scoffed, not sure if Alex was joking or not. He wasn't.
Alex grabbed Will by the elbow and started walking.
"Alex?" Will asked, looking at the cigarette in Alex's hand.
The girl watched, incredulous, as Alex lead Will down the street. Pausing long enough to put out the cigarette without complaint.
"Here," Alex shoved a bottle of beer in Will's hand. He sat next to Will on the couch in his hotel.
"Thanks," Will murmured. He brought the tip of the bottle to his mouth but didn't take a drink.
Will placed the bottle on the coffee table and started flipping through the TV channels.
"What's with you?" Alex asked, observing Will.
Will shrugged but he could feel the intensity of Alex's stare burning into him. Relenting, Will said, "I went to Common Grounds to meet Sonny. He was busy with his friends."
"And?" Alex demanded.
"I heard them talking about me," Will said. "I didn't like what I heard so I left."
"Did you tell them off first?" Alex wondered.
"No, they didn't even know I was there," Will grabbed the beer bottle again and held it tight.
"You should have told them to go fuck themselves," Alex retorted. "I would have."
"I know you would," Will gave a half smile.
"You shouldn't put up with things like that," Alex informed Will. "It just makes you look like a doormat."
"I'm used to it," Will said. "It's nothing I haven't heard before."
"Is that supposed to make me feel better or you?" Alex asked. "Because I don't think it worked either way."
Will shrugged again, picking at the label on his beer.
"What did they say?" Alex asked.
"Just stuff about my family," Will responded. The longer he talked the harder he ripped at the label. "And about my job and about how Sonny shouldn't waste his time on a loser like me."
Alex, jaw set, said, "Who were these friends? I want names."
"Don't bother," Will closed his eyes.
"Did Sonny agree with them?" Alex demanded. "Did he tell them to shut up, at least?"
"Not in so many words," Will sighed. "He called them idiots and told them they didn't know me but he didn't stick up for me either. I mean, they said I was hot but stupid and he didn't say anything."
Alex cracked the knuckles in his left hand. "You have got to be fucking kidding me?"
"I wish," Will turned to look at Alex. "Can we just forget about this? I don't want to think about it anymore."
Alex stared at Will for a long time, eyes dragging over his face. "For now."
"Thanks," Will said, going back to flipping through the channels. "There's nothing good on."
"Just put it on the Blackhawks game," Alex ordered, stealing the remote. Will didn't say anything for a while but Alex felt compelled to talk. "Even though I grew up in Dallas I never liked the Stars. I always supported the Hawks even when they sucked. Paid off now that they're good. You?"
Will blinked but didn't answer.
Alex turned off the TV and tossed the remote aside.
"Get up," Alex ordered. He grabbed Will's wrist and yanked him into his bedroom.
"I-I don't think I should be in here," Will said, shoulders hunched, when he realized where he was. He hadn't been in the bedroom of Alex's hotel before. He's walked through it to use the bathroom but he's never stayed.
"Shut up," Alex remarked stopping in front of a mirror on the back of the door to his bathroom. Adjusting Will so he was standing in front of it, Alex said, "Now look."
With Alex's hands holding him in place, Will asked, "Look at what?"
"Yourself," Alex wanted to roll his eyes and get frustrated but for some reason he didn't. Alex found himself charmed by Will and all his flaws and insecurities. Although he knew Will would be happier without them.
Right now, Alex wanted to snap Will out of his funk. He much preferred Will smiling or blushing to this listless mess.
"I know what I look like," Will turned away from the mirror. He didn't see the point in this.
"I don't think you do," Alex stated in a gentle tone. "I don't think you see yourself the way others see you, the way I see you."
"I know how other people see me," Will whispered. "I think I see myself exactly the same way."
"Start at the top," Alex demanded picking up a strand of Will's blond locks. He held it up in the air and let it fall back down.
"And do what?" Will whispered. Shivering when Alex's fingers caressed his hair, Will caught Alex's eyes in the mirror.
"Look," Alex said, "Okay, really look."
Will did. He examined his hair seeing the different shades of blond. Looking at the texture and the volume, even feeling how soft it was.
"Well?" Alex questioned seeing Will's expressions flicker and change. Pleased to see Will thinking about everything.
"I-I like my hair," Will admitted in a low voice, so quiet he wasn't sure if Alex could even hear him. "Sometimes I wish it wasn't this color but it does what I want it to do. It sticks up a lot in the front, though."
"Why don't you want to be blond?" Alex wondered as his fingers trailed along Will's scalp.
"People think I'm dumb," Will tilted his head back, enjoying Alex's fingers. "There aren't that many blond guys in town. I'm pretty recognizable."
"Want to know a secret?" Alex hummed as he took a step closer to Will. Bending over so his mouth was right behind Will's ear, he said, "I happen to think blondes are sexy."
Will caught Alex's eyes in the mirror again and swallowed.
"Keep going. Look at your eyes," Alex told Will.
Will looked at himself again.
"They're blue," he said knowing he sounded stupid.
"Uh-huh," Alex exhaled but felt his lips twitching into a smile. "What else?"
"They're just eyes," Will sighed. "There's nothing that remarkable about them." Will flickered his eyes toward Alex's. He couldn't stop himself from saying, "Not like yours."
"I know my eyes are nice," Alex commented. "But don't do that."
"Do what?" Will questioned.
"Compare yourself to other people," Alex told him. "It doesn't matter what other people look like or think. I want you to look at you."
"It does matter," Will insisted. "I know what people think when they see me. And it's not that I'm good looking or interesting. They see my family. They see my future. No one's ever going to see me for me."
"I hate to break it to you," Alex put his hand on Will's shoulders again, "But that's not how everyone sees you."
"It's how I see me," Will bit his lip.
"If you tell me what you see, I'll tell you what I see," Alex offered Will. "And you know I don't say anything I don't mean."
Will deliberated, chewing his lower lip. After a few moments, he nodded once before looking back to himself.
"What about your eyes?" Alex asked again.
"They're light," Will replied, "and big."
"What else?" Alex requested.
Will pressed his lips together, "They're nice, bright blue. My lashes are pretty long."
"Mmm hmm," Alex agreed. He swiped his thumb along Will's eyebrows. "And dark."
"I'm gonna have a lot of wrinkles here," Will rubbed the middle of his forehead. He could see faint lines from where he'd lift his brows or frown.
"Stop worrying so much," Alex responded. He trailed his fingertips down Will's cheeks. "What else do you see?"
"My nose has freckles," Will said. "You have to look close, though, to see them."
"Adorable," Alex responded.
Will wasn't sure if Alex was serious or not.
"My-um-cheeks have a red tint," Will realized. "Not a lot, but I've never noticed before."
"You blush a lot," Alex noted.
"Around you the most," Will pointed out, feeling his cheeks redden and groaning.
"Ah, I feel special," Alex said in a cloying voice. But he did feel special. He liked that Will could be so comfortable in his presence and yet blush so often.
"Shut up," Will said with a laugh. He went back to staring at himself. "My cheekbones are nice," Will decided. "Not too angular and not too round. I guess."
"No guessing," Alex tapped Will's cheek. "What do you know?"
"I like my cheekbones and I hate my ears, okay?" Will struggled not to cross his arms.
"Your ears?" Alex grabbed one of Will's ears and tugged. "Why?"
"I always have," Will explained. "They were massive when I was growing up. Now, they're too rounded."
"Ah, I like 'em," Alex pulled on one end. "So dainty."
"Shut it," Will huffed but couldn't stop from smiling.
"Now, we have to talk about that," Alex insisted. "Your smile and teeth and lips."
"Okay," Will swallowed. "My smile isn't bad. A little too big, maybe."
"No, it's not," Alex stated.
"Oh," Will didn't know how to respond. "Um, my teeth are okay. I had braces so they're straight."
"White," Alex added. "And your lips?"
"They're pink," Will said, "Um-kind of wide-I hope they're soft."
"Plushy," Alex said. He placed his thumb over Will's mouth and pressed his front to Will's back.
"My-um-," Will felt overwhelmed by Alex standing so close to him all of a sudden. "My neck is thick and my Adam's apple is big."
"These?" Alex placed his hands on Will's shoulders.
"Wide," Will said. "Strong. I do a lot of lifting."
"I noticed," Alex said. His hands spread over Will's chest before landing on his top button. He flicked it open. "What else do you see?"
"I don't have a lot of chest hair," Will said as Alex unbuttoned his shirt.
"Doesn't look like it, no," Alex agreed. He pulled Will's shirt open, exposing Will's torso.
Will felt his shirt dropping off his wrists and down to the floor. His heart was hammering out of his chest.
"My-um-my arms," Will cleared his throat, "are big. From working out. I have a lot of arm hair but it's light so most people don't notice. And-uh-um-I have a farmers tan. I should work on that."
"Might have to go shirtless more often," Alex said, "Wouldn't that be a pity?"
Alex slid his hands up and down Will's arms, squeezing his muscles. He made his way across Will's collarbone and down to his chest.
Alex dragged his thumbs across Will's chest, circling his nipples, "What do you see?"
"My pecs," Will started to say before his voice caught in his throat. "Uh-my pecs-they're big. Um-really big."
"Nice and defined," Alex agreed, spreading his hands over Will's heated skin.
Alex's hands went lower, tracing over Will's trunk.
"My-uh-," Will shifted, hips moving around. He enjoyed Alex's warm hands on him a little too much. "I have nice abs and obliques."
"Mmm, yes," Alex moaned, voice soft and right against Will's ear. He thumbed the dip in Will's skin over his hip bones.
Will's breath hitched. Alex's fingers curled in the smattering of darker, thicker hair that led to his groin.
Alex dipped his thumbs in the waistband of Will's dark green boxers. The outline showed just above Will's dark wash jeans.
"I-," Will didn't know what to say or do. He could smell Alex's cologne and feel his body heat behind him.
Alex licked his lips and grabbed Will's belt buckle. "What else do you see?"
Will didn't stop Alex as he pulled his belt open and unbuttoned his pants. "I-uh-I-."
Alex kneeled down and pulled off Will's pants in one swift motion. He helped Will take off his shoes and socks, hoping it would give Will time to clear his head.
It didn't. All Will could see was Alex on his knees. It gave him too many ideas.
Alex rubbed the top of Will's feet. "Start at the bottom."
"My feet are bony," Will said, forcing out something. "And-and um -long. And my calves are nice, some muscle but not too much. But my thighs are bigger."
Will almost couldn't breathe with Alex's hands rubbing up his thighs, nails catching on his leg hair.
Alex nodded. He could feel Will shaking beneath his hands. Feeling daring, Alex ran his hand up the back of Will's thigh. "I noticed these the first time I saw you. How well your pants fit your legs and this."
Alex slid his hand over Will's boxers to grab Will's butt.
Will gasped, not sure if he wanted to pull away or press back into Alex's firm grip. Instead, Will blurted out, "I like my hands!"
"Sure you don't like mine?" Alex quipped, holding onto Will tight.
"They're long, piano fingers," Will said. He wished Alex would get off his knees. There would be no denying how turned on Will was soon.
"You play the piano?" Alex asked. "You'll have to play for me sometime."
"Okay," Will croaked out.
"You know what they say about piano players?" Alex asked but didn't wait for a response. "That to have perfect form all the greats have a large, ample ass. Feels like you must be fantastic."
Will let out a breathy mix of a giggle and a shriek.
Alex smiled, trying not to laugh. He let go of Will's butt and stood up. He knew how he was affecting Will but didn't want to scare Will off.
"There's only one part of you left to see," Alex pointed out. "Is that something you want?"
Alex kept his hands away from Will. He didn't want to pressure him or confuse him in any way. If Will wanted this it needed to be his decision. Something Alex didn't care too much about with previous partners.
Will looked at Alex's face and eyes. For once there wasn't anything derisive in them. There was no defiant nature, no humor or sarcasm.
Alex looked serious but soft. His eyes held warmth Will had only seen glimpses of in the past.
"Alex," Will asked in a shaky voice. "I-I don't know what to do."
"Then don't do anything," Alex advised. "I'm not in charge of you. This is all about you, Will. Whatever you want to do and what you feel comfortable with."
"All about me?" Will replied, skeptical.
"If I didn't want to be here I wouldn't," Alex told Will. Reaching for Will's hand, Alex traced his index finger down the center of Will's palm to his wrist. "I'm not just doing this to use you, if that's what you were thinking."
Will nodded.
"What does that mean?" Alex asked.
Will took a few deep breaths, "Yes, yes, this is what I want."
"Okay," Alex whispered as he tugged on Will's boxers. He kneeled down but kept his eyes on Will's face.
Alex watched as Will's cheeks turned bright red. Watched as pink splotches appeared on his neck and chest when he stepped out of his shorts.
Alex gave Will a gentle smile before placing his hands on Will's thighs. His eyes traced from Will's eyes down to the smattering of thick pubic hair along his pelvis.
Alex was an ass man. Male or female, he didn't discriminate. More than breasts or legs or any other body part, he preferred a nice, round butt. He already had a preoccupation with Will's. It was a lesson in patience and self-control not to put his hands all over it in public.
Alex couldn't help but find Will's cock pretty, though. It wasn't the longest or the widest Alex had ever seen. It fit Will, though. Just long enough and just wide enough, pink and wet at the tip.
Alex didn't know if it was a Will thing or what. He wasn't opposed to bottoming or enjoying a nice cock. He just had preferences. Alex wasn't a size queen. He didn't understand guys or girls that wanted something monstrous inside them. He didn't want to choke or feel too sore in the morning. He didn't want anything miniscule either. Something he wouldn't feel.
Alex was particular if he was going down on someone or offered to bottom which was rare. Despite what some thought, he was discerning with how far he went with partners.
Still, the idea of offering himself up for Will wasn't unappealing.
Alex glanced back up at Will when Will didn't say anything. "You okay?"
"I-I don't know," Will said, voice low and breathing uneasy.
"You want to hear what I think about you now?" Alex suggested, wanting Will to relax.
Will nodded, taking a deep breath. It was nerve-wracking standing naked while Alex just stared.
Alex touched one of Will's toes before dragging his hand up one of Will's legs.
"These are nice," Alex informed Will. He ran his hand up Will's thigh, ignoring Will's strained cock, and rubbed Will's hips. "These too. And your stomach. I noticed them that time you took me to the gym. Your muscles look," Alex paused and shook his head.
Alex moved his hands to Will's. He traced along Will's fingers and over his wrists. Up Will's forearms to his biceps where he squeezed.
Will took a deep breath, trying not to say anything or give away how turned on he was.
Spreading his palms over Will's chest, thumb swiping over Will's protruding collar bone, Alex stepped closer.
"Next to your ass," Alex trailed his fingers up Will's neck to rest at his lips, "this is my favorite."
Will opened his mouth when Alex traced his lips.
"So pretty, so pink," Alex mused. "I already know what they can do against mine. Can't wait to see them wrapped around me. One day."
"Not today?" Will whispered, trembling.
"Told you," Alex said. "Today is all about you."
Alex stood to his whole height, a few inches taller than Will. He looked Will up and down, appraising. Even walking in a circle to get a full look.
When Will couldn't stand it anymore, he asked, "Well?"
Alex lifted one brow, arms crossed. "You wanna know what I think?"
"Yes," Will said after a large inhale.
"Well, Will Horton," Alex's lips quirked into a grin. "I happen to think everything from the top of your pretty blond head to the tips of your toes is sexy."
Will stared at Alex in disbelief.
"I would have some sort of complaint most of the time but not today," Alex stated. "You are hot," he reiterated when Will still looked in shock.
"Oh," Will floundered for a moment longer, "thank you."
Alex laughed, head thrown back, neck exposed.
Will gave him half a smile, uncertain what to do next.
Alex grabbed Will by the back of the neck, thumbs brushing behind Will's ears. "You should treasure it. I don't give out compliments often."
Will nodded, feeling stronger with his nudity. Hearing what Alex thought about him, seeing the look in Alex's eyes gave Will back the confidence he had earlier.
Will put his hands on Alex's hips, pulling on the belt loops.
Alex smiled before pressing their lips together. Will relaxed into the kiss.
Alex took control quick, Will pliant in his arms. He licked across the seam of Will's mouth as his grip on Will's neck became firmer.
Will relaxed into Alex's hold. Pressing his entire body into Alex's. He could feel the softness of Alex's cotton shirt along his bare chest. The scratch of Alex's jeans on Will's sensitive lower half.
Alex's hands drifted down Will's back, resting on the curve of Will's ass.
Alex moaned when his hands caressed Will's butt. It was the perfect amount of firm and fleshy all at once.
Will gasped when Alex pulled him closer against him. He relished the feel of Alex's warm hands all over his naked skin. The only person Will had been this close to before was Gabi and it felt nothing like this. While pleasant, being with Gabi didn't cause Will's heart to race and his breath to quicken. With Gabi, deep down Will felt a sense of duty, of obligation. Right here, right now, all Will felt was excitement and fear and anticipation.
"Fuck," Alex whispered, lips still attached to Will's.
Will made a strange combination of groan and gurgle. Words were beyond him now.
"Tell me what you want," Alex pressed his forehead to Will's. His hands alternated between rubbing and squeezing Will's ass. He pushed his groin into Will's, almost helpless.
"What?" Will asked, overwhelmed, staring right into Alex's eyes. Eyes that were much darker than usual, pupils blown wide.
"Tell me what you want," Alex repeated. "I'll give you anything you want, whatever you want."
Before Will could answer Alex kissed him again and again until he was breathless and shaky.
"Anything," Alex repeated. "Tell me what you want."
"Y-you," Will stuttered, almost unable to think. "I just want you."
Alex connected their lips again, moving them backward. The back of Will's knees hit the mattress before he even realized they moved.
Alex pushed Will into a sitting position. He hovered above Will, taking in his naked form once more. Alex was quite attuned with the human body. He spent hours photographing it, experimenting with it, fucking it.
He's seen hundreds of naked bodies of all different shapes, sizes, and colors. Some that were more muscled than Will. Taller and stronger, leaner and daintier. Faces that were prettier or manlier. By all rights, Alex shouldn't be so taken with Will Horton. Shouldn't want to capture his every waking minute on film. Shouldn't want to look at him for days on end. Shouldn't feel such a traitorous fluttering in his stomach whenever Will smiled. Shouldn't feel so pleased when he saw Will's rosy cheeks blossom in front of his eyes.
Will was too young, too immature, too inexperienced. He was too loyal and too much of a mama's boy despite what he liked to argue. He was too indecisive and insecure. He was too much of everything all at once.
Will Horton shouldn't mean anything to Alex. But he did.
Alex caught Will's eyes and swallowed down a lump that formed in his throat.
"Alex?" Will whispered, chest heaving. He stared at Alex with more trust than Alex had ever seen before.
A few weeks ago, Will couldn't admit he liked men. Now, he was lying in Alex's bed, naked, trusting Alex to take care of him.
Alex didn't plan on disappointing.
"Relax," Alex ordered, talking to himself just as much as Will. "I'm not gonna hurt you."
Alex slipped back to his knees, fingers swirling around Will's inner thighs.
"Okay," Will breathed, taking a few soothing inhales and exhales.
Alex wet his mouth, nervous even though he had no reason to be. He rubbed up and down Will's thighs and hips until his fingers tangled in a thatch of pubic hair. He chuckled when he saw Will's cock jump at the sudden proximity.
"Has anyone ever done this for you?" Alex asked as he took Will in hand. He spread the moisture leaking from Will's tip up and down his shaft.
Will shook his head. "Ga-uh-Gabi offered but I wouldn't let her. I-I didn't want her to."
"What about me?" Alex looked up at Will. He lined up his mouth and Will's cock, just a few inches away from each other. "Do you want me to?"
Will let out a strangled whimper and nodded. He couldn't handle seeing Alex looking at him through his thick lashes like that. It wasn't fair.
Alex's flicked out his tongue, teasing Will a bit. He held the base of Will's cock with his left hand while he laved the head. He took his time, getting Will used to the sensation.
It had been a while since Alex spent this much time on anyone. His encounters were much quicker than this. More often than not, he was the one getting head not giving it. But he knew what he was doing.
Will didn't know what to do with his hands or his hips. He bunched the blankets underneath him in his fists. He tried not to squirm too much but it was difficult. He wanted this experience to last but he knew it wouldn't if he kept looking at Alex.
Opening his mouth, Alex suckled just the tip of Will. He thrived off the sounds Will couldn't contain. Will's cries were just the right amount of breathy and genuine.
When Alex started moving up and down, Will knew he wasn't going to last long. His hands flew to Alex's head, hands gripping the thick hair. He didn't know if it was to pull Alex off or pull him closer.
Alex got the hint. He worked his hand and mouth together in sync. Fist twisting just so as his lips moved up and down, meeting in the middle.
"A-Alex," Will choked, yanking on the dark strands of hair tighter than he planned. He couldn't help it, though. It all washed over him faster than he anticipated.
Alex had only a few seconds of warning before Will let go. He wasn't big on swallowing but didn't have much of a choice here.
Alex took one mouthful before he wrenched himself away. He kept his fist working Will over and managed to get a spurt of semen across his lips and, somehow, over his eyebrow.
If it had been anyone else, Alex would walk away. But one look at Will's blissed out face, his wide, gaping mouth, and Alex relented.
For whatever reason, Will Horton seemed to be the exception to all Alex's rules.
Will collapsed back on the bed, body thrumming. His eyes clenched tight and he thought for sure he would never catch his breath. Orgasms didn't feel anything like that when it was him and his left hand.
Opening his eyes, Will let out a pathetic whine seeing Alex wearing his come.
"Sorry," Will said as he struggled to sit up.
Alex gave Will a wry expression even though he wasn't too perturbed. He just wanted to see Will's reaction.
"You just felt so good. I couldn't think," Will scooted to the edge of the bed. With Alex still kneeling, they were just about the same height.
Will reached out and wiped off the come from Alex's brow and mouth. With Alex's eyes on him, Will licked his fingers, curious.
Alex moaned, wrapping his arms around Will's waist.
"Sorry?" Will smiled, sheepish. "I've never been brave enough to do that when I was alone."
"No? Had to wait for an audience, huh?" Alex laughed.
"I guess," Will said, face still warm. He relaxed in Alex's hold, pressing their cheeks together. "That felt so good."
"Yeah, I gathered that when you lasted a minute," Alex remarked. When he felt Will tense, Alex added, "It was super hot. Watching you unravel, mmm, loved it."
"Yeah?" Will asked in a small voice.
"So sexy," Alex promised, rubbing his hands over Will's back.
"Now what?" Will asked. "You still have your clothes on."
"Getting me naked now, Horton? What kind of boy do you take me for?" Alex teased, smiling so much his face hurt.
"I-I thought-I mean-I wanted to-but only if you do!" Will stuttered causing Alex to laugh.
"Oh, I want to," Alex assured Will. "But you gotta let go first."
"Mmm, no," Will shook his head, holding on tight.
"I should have figured you'd be too clingy," Alex said without much heat.
Will rubbed their faces together as he wrapped his legs around Alex's hips.
"You're like a little kitten," Alex huffed even though he enjoyed it, just a little bit.
"Meow," Will said before bursting into laughter.
"You're a dork," Alex said before standing up with Will clinging onto him still. He dropped them both on the bed.
Will watched as Alex pulled his shirt over his head and undid his pants. He couldn't stop staring. Couldn't get his eyes to focus on one specific body part, enthralled with them all.
Pleased by Will's reaction to his nudity, Alex stretched out on the bed.
Will, licking his lips, let his hands rest on Alex's flat stomach. His hands explored and his mouth watered.
"You're so good looking it's stupid," Will said when he met Alex's eyes again.
Alex snorted. "I know."
"So modest too," Will shook his head. He couldn't keep from sneaking peeks at Alex's groin.
"What do you want to do now?" Alex asked. He knew what he wanted but tonight was all about Will.
"I-I want a lot of things," Will said.
"We've got time," Alex responded. "We don't have to do them all at once. Or do more than you're comfortable with."
"I do feel comfortable with you," Will gave Alex a smile but sincere smile. "That's why I want to do them all."
Will put his hands back on Alex's chest and stomach. He had a thick smattering of hair everywhere. Will didn't think he'd find it attractive but he did.
Will followed the growth of hair all the way down to Alex's pelvis. Resting on Alex's thigh was his cock, not quite hard but not quite soft either. It was wider than Will's own and maybe an inch or so longer, darker with lots of veins.
Will wrapped his fist around it. This he knew how to do. Maybe not quite to the standards Alex had but Will knew how to jerk someone off.
Alex enjoyed watching Will work just as much as he enjoyed what Will did.
Will jerked and twisted, tongue sticking out of his mouth as he concentrated. He waited until Alex started leaking at the tip to say, "I want you to fuck me."
"…'scue me?" Alex stated, certain he must have misheard.
"I want you to fuck me," Will said, hoping he sounded confident. "I-I trust you and I know you'll make it good."
Alex nodded, inhaling sharply when Will gave a particularly good twist.
"Don't you want to?" Will asked, lowering his head and gazing at Alex.
"Fuck, you know I do," Alex groaned. He couldn't handle it when Will looked all demure-like even if he was jacking Alex off at the same time.
"Please, Alex?" Will licked his lips, left fist working with ease. "I want you. I want you to be my first."
Alex shoved Will's hand away and grabbed the back of his neck. He brought their lips together in a fierce kiss.
Alex had been several someone's first time. There was always a sense of pressure to give someone a good performance but not like this. Alex didn't care about anyone else. He cared about Will.
Alex needed to give Will the best.
"How do you want this?" Alex asked, pulling their mouths apart. "Do you want me to fuck you? Do you want to fuck me?"
Will's mouth opened as he thought over the possibilities. The honest answer would be he was selfish and wanted both. He wanted Alex in any way he could have him. But when Will imagined his first time with a male, when he would allow himself to imagine it at all, he always pictured someone else penetrating him.
"I want you to fuck me, first," Will said. "And maybe next time-if there is a next time-I could with you? If that's something you'd want."
"I'm beginning to realize there's not a whole lot I don't want with you," Alex said in a gruff voice. When he saw Will's eyes widen, Alex cleared his throat. "This isn't going to be some fairytale experience, okay? It's gonna be awkward and might hurt. Most guys don't even get off on it the first few times."
"That's okay," Will said. "I read a few things, you know, before. I know it's not all that porn makes it out to be."
"Only if you've got some poppers and muscle relaxants on hand," Alex commented.
Will watched as Alex got off the bed and rummaged through a suitcase in the closet. "What? You don't have your stuff in your nightstand?"
"I don't bring people back to my place," Alex said, tossing a condom and an unopened bottle of lube on the bed. "I try to go to theirs. Easier that way to run out when it's over."
"Gonna be hard to kick me out in the morning," Will replied.
"I won't," Alex used his teeth to rip off the plastic protective wrap on the lube. "Kick you out, that is."
"Special treatment?" Will smiled.
"Another round," Alex countered. "Get on your back."
Alex maneuvered Will until he was flat on his back, two pillows under his head, and a pillow under his hips.
"Maybe I should have stretched before doing this," Will commented, babbling to cover his nerves.
"Shush," Alex smacked the inside of Will's thigh. "You ever touch yourself like this before?"
"I've tried," Will confessed, "I just didn't have the right stuff to use and it didn't go well."
"Well, I'll do my best to make it good," Alex said, squirting some of the lube along his fingers. "You need to breathe out and sort of push."
"Push?" Will questioned, flinching a bit when he felt Alex brush against him.
"You'll know," Alex said, rubbing along Will's hole. "Just relax, I won't hurt you."
"I know," Will gave Alex a smile before exhaling, feeling Alex's finger slip inside.
It was strange, not altogether unpleasant, just odd.
"You know," Alex said, hoping to keep Will relaxed. "First time I did this was terrible."
"Yeah?" Will's forehead scrunched together when Alex moved forward and back.
"Mmm hmm," Alex nodded. "Guy I was with was a dick. Didn't even try to make it feel good for me. I know I'm not the nicest guy around but I make sure my partner gets off, at least."
"I'm sorry," Will said, feeling his muscles unwind.
"S'alright now," Alex said, "I still don't like bottoming that much but I had better experiences. That's why I'm gonna make sure this is nothing like that. I want you to love this."
"It's with you," Will said, closing his eyes and tilting his head back. "I know it'll be perfect."
Alex pressed his lips together, stupid butterflies churning in his belly.
"I'm gonna try another one," Alex told Will as he added more lube.
The second finger didn't feel much better. Will felt more pressure and a slight twinge of pain but nothing to indicate this would feel good.
Alex made sure to add lots of lube to make sure Will never felt dry. There would be plenty of time to experiment with that stuff later.
It wasn't until Alex pressed three fingers into Will and curled his fingers just so that Will felt anything good.
Gasping, Will groaned, "Was that-?"
"Mmm hmm," Alex nodded, smiling at Will's response. Each time he brushed against Will's prostate, he made sure to twist his fingers.
The longer Alex fingered him, the better it felt. It became less tight and strange and more pleasurable.
"This still good?" Alex asked, needing to be sure before they took anything further.
"Uh-huh," Will moaned, hips moving up and down, chasing Alex's fingers.
"Right," Alex said, taking out his fingers.
Alex's hands were too slippery and too shaky to rip open the condom package.
"Let me," Will offered. He took out the condom and glanced at Alex for permission before rolling it over Alex. He couldn't resist giving a few jerks once he finished.
"You sure about this?" Alex questioned, drizzling lube over his dick.
"I'm sure," Will answered, "You?"
"You don't wanna know how long I've wanted this," Alex said. "It'll be easier on your hands and knees the first time."
Will turned over, shaking a bit.
"It's alright," Alex said, one hand petting over Will's sides, soothing him. "I've got you. Take a deep breath and when you exhale I'm gonna push in."
Will nodded, taking a giant breath and letting it out. He gasped when he felt Alex's thick length pressing into him.
Alex went slow, giving Will plenty of pauses and breaks. He kept up a string of commentary in Will's ear until he was all the way inside.
Alex's front pressed against Will's back, hanging over him.
Will whimpered, trembling. He wasn't sure if everything felt good or bad yet. Although Alex's hold on him felt nice. He wrapped all around Will, covering him entirely.
"Come on, kitten," Alex whispered in Will's ear. "Feel so good around me, hugging me so tight. So perfect, so beautiful, relax."
Will nodded. Alex's words sweeping over him, enveloping him, marking him.
"I'm gonna move," Alex warned after several long minutes. "Just a little, there we go. So good for me, kitten."
Will groaned each time Alex moved forward and back. Never too fast, always giving Will time to adjust.
It took a while for the two to develop a rhythm. Alex thrusting in as Will ground back.
Alex wrapped his fist around Will's flagging cock. Will grew soft as he struggled through the initial pain of penetration. But as the two continued and Alex jerked, Will grew hard once again.
"That's it," Alex groaned, "Fuck you feel so good. Fuck, fuck, fuck."
Hearing Alex moan in his ear egged Will on. Made him want to push back, arch his back, and shout.
Alex tried to hold off, wanted to last longer but he couldn't. Will felt too good, sounded too good. Everything felt and tasted and smelled like Will.
"Shit," Alex hissed, "I'm not gonna last much longer."
"S'okay," Will promised. He looked over his shoulder. Sweat dripped down his forehead and he gave Alex a wide smile. "Want you to come."
Alex groaned, reached forward to join their lips as his hips jackrabbited into Will a little rougher than he should have.
Will swallowed down Alex's screams, moaning when Alex grinded into him, working through the orgasm.
"Fuck," Alex panted. He eased his thrusts to a stop when he felt too sensitive. "This is gonna pull," he warned before sliding out of Will.
Will winced but didn't complain. He looked behind him again and blushed when he noticed Alex staring at his hole. "What?"
"Fucking hell," Alex praised. He slipped two fingers back inside Will, determined to get him off. He pressed his front to Will's back again, mirroring their previous position.
Alex hissed in Will's ear, jerking him with one hand while the other fingered him.
"Alex," Will grunted, thrusting back into Alex's hand. "Feels so- so, mmm."
Will couldn't form words. He was too far gone.
"Come on, beautiful," Alex goaded. "Wanna see you come again. Wanna feel you tighten around my fingers. Wanna hear that pretty voice. Come on, know you can do it."
Will nodded, body trembling, head thrown back.
It all built and built but Alex biting down on the back of Will's shoulder sent him over the edge.
Will shouted and screamed certain to wake the neighbors but neither of them cared.
Alex worked Will through it, sucking a dark hickey over a tempting looking freckle.
When Alex pulled off, Will couldn't support his weight anymore and he fell to the bed. Alex tumbled on top of him.
"Fucking Christ!" Alex yelled, holding onto Will tight.
Will let out a soft chuckle. "Good?"
"I can't feel my dick," Alex praised. He kissed Will's cheek several times. "So fucking good, kitten."
Will smiled at the pet name, curling toward a pillow. He rested as Alex stood up and peeled off his condom. He brought out a warm wash cloth and cleaned Will up, being as gentle as possible.
"How do you feel?" Alex wondered once he tossed the cloth toward the bathroom.
Will rolled onto his side and stared at Alex through lidded eyes. He curled his index finger and said, "Come here."
Alex let Will pull him into a kiss. Their tongues pressed together, warm and familiar.
"Thank you," Will said when they pulled apart. "That was, God," Will let out a breathy laugh, "so, so good."
"You're welcome, kitten," Alex replied. He let Will cuddle into his side without complaint.
"You gonna call me that from now on?" Will smiled, head on Alex's bicep.
"Guess so," Alex said. "We should get up, take a shower or something."
"Later," Will sighed, "Just wanna stay right here, with you."
"Whatever you say," Alex responded, turning his head to press his nose into Will's hair, breathing him in.
