This was maddening.
Literally.
Finn gulped back the lump of nervousness that was in his throat, his eyes constantly glancing from the sleeping male beside him. Well, Finn was not entirely to blame for this. The older boy just looked so peaceful and serene while he slept. Soft, raven locks were gently caressed by the breeze, the pale moonlight illuminating his grayish-blue skin rather nicely, and not to mention his lips, which were usually curved into a teasing smirk was replaced by a gorgeous and very sincere smile that undeniably enjoyed the peace of the moment. It gave him a softer look, unusual to his normal bad-boy and mocking demeanor, yet Finn rather liked it.
The human boy sighed for the umpteenth time that day as he stared longingly. Oh how his hand twitched to caress the vampire's tranquil and soft face. 'I'm pretty sure he won't mind. If he rejects me, we'd just laugh it off and we'd still be friends, right? Yeah, that's it!' He thought hopefully, holding onto anything that could keep his sanity and emotions in check.
Now, there was only one tiny problem left: how exactly is he going to tell the other about his feelings of attraction and endearment?
At that, Finn straightened up in his sitting position, one hand cupping his chin as he mused about his confession. He could always go for the usual brave confession and just say it straight to Marshall's face. 'Nah, too cliche.' Maybe he cold give Marshall a small gift or token that represents his affection? 'But isn't that what guys do to girls?... Nah.' Well that B plan was definitely thrown off the window.
So that left one last plan in Finn's mind, a plan that made him turn his head to once again stare at Marshall's face, specifically his lips. 'A kiss...'
Finn instantly felt the heat rush to his cheeks.
Suddenly feeling embarrassed and afraid, the human immediately turned his head to the other side. He tried to calm down his erratic heart beating, which was a result just at the mere thought of kissing Marshall. But he desperately needed to do this in order to let it all out. His feelings have remained hidden far too long for his liking. 'Looks like I really have no other options, don't I?'
Taking a deep breath, Finn turned his head back to look at Marshall, putting on the most determined face he could muster. Inching ever so slightly closer, Finn stared at Marshall's sleeping face for one more second.
With that, he leaned forward slowly, his eyes shut and his entire body trembling in nervousness and anticipation. Marshall was so close, he could feel it. He was pretty sure their faces were only inches apart now since he could feel Marshall breathing through his nose (do vampires even need to breath?). Steeling himself, he continued to close the gap between them.
But then, just at the last second, Finn opened his eyes and stopped, gazing at Marshall's face which was only centimeters away. 'Maybe I should reconsider... I-I can always go for Plan A. No matter how cliche it is.' Finn sighed once more before leaning back.
And it was at that very particular moment he felt a familiar cold hand firmly grasp the back of his head and pull him back, his lips finally colliding with Marshall's own.
It took Finn a few seconds to realize what was happening until his brain clicked and he finally processed the situation he was in.
Marshall was kissing him. The very man he had lusted after for so long was kissing him and could possibly be holding feelings for him as well! Immediately, Finn responded by closing his eyes and kissing him back. Marshall's other arm coiled around his waist tightly, and he was pulled into a sitting position on the vampire's lap as their make out session continued. Finn automatically wrapped his own arms around the vampire's neck. Their tongues continued to fight for dominance, but Finn was slowly succumbing to Marshall for he had waited for this very moment for so long.
Marshall's other hand, the one that had held onto his head, suddenly reached down and gave Finn's ass a firm squeeze, eliciting a surprised squeak from Finn. The vampire smirked into the kiss, and he immediately shoved his tongue inside the human's mouth. Meanwhile, Finn was melting in Marshall's hold, being reduced to a flushed and moaning mess as the vampire practically dominated him. He wasn't really all that experienced with these kinds of things.
Finn didn't know how long had passed, but he definitely wished the kiss would last forever. Because soon enough, the need for air grew desperately and the human had to pull away, a barely visible thread of saliva connecting their tongues.
Finn gazed at Marshall, his sky blue eyes glazed, "Y-you..."
Marshall smirked, a predatory glint in his blood red eyes, "Like you back? Oh, you don't know how long I've been waiting for that."
The human's blush increased tenfold, but the heavy weight on his chest was finally lifted, and he couldn't help but feel relieved. And to make it even better, the vampire shared the same feelings as he did! Laying his head down on Marshall's shoulder, he sighed in relief, "Thank glob..."
A throaty chuckle came from Marshall. His arms suddenly moved from Finn's waist to his midsection, and he released a small sigh. Finn raised a brow in confusion, "I really... really like you, Finn."
Finn's heart probably skipped a beat or two at those words, and he couldn't control the wide, ear-to-ear smile the curved on his lips. In response, he leaned back and connected his forehead with Marshall's, "I really really really like you too." The grin Marshall gave him was contagious, and he couldn't help but grin himself as he let out a short and joyous laugh. With that, the vampire leaned in once more and sealed their lips in a kiss, and Finn's heart fluttered at the passion he felt.
Okay so it didn't exactly go as well as his plan, but it was undeniably better than not having said anything at all. Besides, Finn was pretty sure this was something he was going to enjoy for the rest of his life.
A/N: This is my take as to what really brought them together. Although to be more precise, this is my take if Finn were the one to confess. I could possibly write another version of this with Marshall confessing instead. I mean, come on people! A seme has to step up his game and be a man! (Well technically he is the one topping so...)
But this just counts as a drabble. I actually plan on making a long one-shot (and by long I mean 5-7k words) titled Chocolate Chip Cookie which is how I exactly pictured how they met. It will be more realistic and complex than this simple drabble, which is going to be quite the challenge for me since I'm going to be trying a different writing style.
Anyway, forgive any grammatical errors, I stayed up from 12 AM to 2 AM to finish this. It is rushed and I did not bother to double check it, which also explains the cliche title.
For once, I'm not actually feeling lazy
