"I'm going to throw up."

Randy laughed and nudged Seth closer to the door. "No you aren't. It's just Dad, Nate, and Becks."

"You live here though.. I'm gonna make a fool of myself."

The football player rolled his eyes and stopped when they were right outside the Orton household. "Hey, we agreed that if you can meet my family then I can talk to your mom about all of this. I just need you to meet my dad." He'd thought long and hard about the conversation with Ms. Lopez that Seth had suggested but part of him was still skeptical. It wasn't until Mr. Del Rio talked to him after class again that he realized that it was best to get help as quickly as possible. These things took more time than Randy thought they would. He sighed a bit, getting lost in his own thoughts. Randy paid attention again when Seth pressed a thin hand over his chest. He smiled softly at the man, "Sorry.. still nervous about how that will play out."

Seth kissed Randy's cheek then took a deep breath before he looked at the door. Randy was about to tell Seth's mom the private things the Orton house held; the least Seth could do was have a quick conversation with Randy's dad and study at Randy's house. Seth was glad his mom let him come over because he'd always wondered what Randy's house looked like but he was also fairly intimidated by the lavishness of it all. Seth stepped through the doorway when Randy unlocked the front door, hugging his calculus book harder to his chest and waiting in the hallway as if expecting a bomb to go off.

Randy grinned and kissed the top of the two-toned male's head. "Relax, Rollins." Randy set his stuff down at the base of the stairs and hummed when Seth did the same. He kicked his shoes off and smiled at Jeanne. They'd barely had two conversations but that was more than what they'd had while Elaine was around. "Seth, this is Jeanne. She helps out around the house.. Jeanne, this is Seth. He's my boyfriend."

Seth shook the woman's hand and smiled politely before he heard footsteps coming down the stairs.

"—did I just hear the word boyfriend?"

Randy smiled wide and walked over to meet his dad. He gave the man a one-armed hug and grinned when he saw the look on Seth's face. "Dad, this is Seth. We're gonna work on some calc upstairs. I asked his mom and she was okay with it.. as long as we get to school on time tomorrow."

"Let her know that I agree with that." Bob took Seth's hand and smiled politely. He was tired and he was sure it showed in his face but it was nice meeting Randy's friends when he got the chance. They were good kids for the most part. "Is it true you moved here a few months ago?"

"Y..yes, Sir."

Bob laughed and Randy did too. "Bob.. or Robert if you feel the need." He grinned, "How are you liking it here so far, son?"

Seth smiled and shrugged before casting a glance at Randy "It's definitely different than Iowa.. but in a good way. Makin' friends and.. gettin' involved so I think I like it."

"Good.. well, I won't keep you two. Study hard and all that." He waved a hand, before looking at Seth again. "Make yourself at home, Seth. – Keith, offer your guest something to eat. You'd think that you'd be trying to make a good impression on your boyfriend, not starve him to death."

Randy huffed and his cheeks heated up as he stumbled for words to ask Seth if he was hungry. Fortunately, the shift of attention seemed to get Seth to calm down significantly so Randy would have to thank his old man later for that. He heard his father head back upstairs and turned to shove Seth playfully. "And you gave me hell for enjoying you getting your ass chewed off by your mom."

Seth rubbed his shoulder before grinning wide, "I like him." he repeated Randy's words to him when the football player had met Seth's mother. That earned another shove but Seth was too happy to care. Randy's dad seemed nice; nothing like what Randy described his mother to be. He had to wonder how they ended up together.

"Dinner will be ready in a little over an hour so don't fill up too much."

Randy smiled at Jeanne, "We're teenage boys, we always have room for food, Jeanne. But yeah, I think we'd be okay with just a sandwich for now?" he looked at Seth for confirmation before starting to make them simple ham, cheese, and lettuce for him and tomato for Seth sandwiches. He sat at the little island with Seth after getting them sodas and nudged him slightly. "Not too bad, right?"

Seth watched the woman cook. She looked happy and Seth wasn't sure why that surprised him as much as it did. He shook his head at Randy's question and ate his sandwich in silence as he watched the maid/housekeeper in fascination.

Randy looked at Jeanne once he realized what Seth was staring at. He hadn't seen the woman smile this much before. He couldn't help but think it had something to do with his mother no longer being around and drinking or scolding everything in sight. He frowned at that thought and finished off his soda before looking at Seth. "We set?"

No sooner had Randy asked that question than had Jeanne gathered up their plates. He lifted a hand to protest but the woman assured him that she had nothing else to do and they needed to study. Seth nodded, looking at Randy and biting his lip before finishing his own soda and putting it in the container under the sink like Randy did for the recyclables. "Lead the way, teach."

Randy grunted and waited until Jeanne was out of earshot before responding to Seth, "—you have a teacher/roleplay kink I should know about?"

Seth's cheeks flushed. He hadn't even thought about that as a possibility until then and now he couldn't even formulate words as he muttered something that sounded vaguely like 'fucking tease' to Randy as he followed him upstairs to what Seth could only assume was Randy's room. They rarely teased each other sexually mostly because they'd yet to do much outside of kissing and random groping and only once had that escalated to a handjob; but usually it was him who said things to Randy so having Randy do it first always caught him off guard. Seth set his bag down when they walked into the dimly lit office space and he blinked before looking at Randy. "Won't your dad be upset that we're usin' his office?"

"This is an extra one.. he had it made because he used to run a few things from here so when he needs help and brings over an aide they take this room." Randy shrugged and set his calculus book on the desk before taking out his notebook and pen. He flipped through the book until he found what chapter they were on and he walked over to the paneled wall, sliding it out of the way and uncovering the chalk board. He set up a few problems for Seth and hummed to himself as he did so.

Seth's mind was blown the more time he spent in the Orton household. There were things here that he'd only ever seen on TV or he was sure didn't exist and Randy wasn't even phased by any of it. He didn't blame the teen at all because Randy clearly knew what he had wasn't what most kids had but Seth couldn't help but just look around and admire the beauty of the home as he heard the chalk tap against the board.

They finished the 'lesson' Randy had planned for Seth since the Iowan had fallen behind again on the 3-D graphing and that was too important for Randy to let this happen. Just as Randy opened the textbook to look for some practice problems, Jeanne called them from the base of the stairs and Randy grinned at Seth. "You got lucky.. looks like Jeanne thinks it's time for a break."

"Are we finishing up later?"

Randy looked around the office and then back to Seth, "Did you understand the lesson?"

"Yeah.. I just need practice."

"Then I think we're done here. We can move our shit to my room after dinner." Randy didn't wait for a confirmation before he was cleaning off the board and covering it back up. He made sure to leave everything as it was because though he had a housekeeper it wasn't like him to treat people like scum just because it is their job to clean up after him.

Seth bit his lip as he looked out to the hallway, knowing that the Orton's ate dinner together and he would finally get to at least see Becky. "Babe?"

"Hm?"

"Does your sister know about us?"

Randy tilted his head at Seth and nodded, "I told her a week ago.. we don't talk very much but, I like keeping her updated."

"Good."

He wrapped an arm around Seth's waist and pulled him close as he led them downstairs again. "Are you still nervous? The hardest part was meeting my dad.. since I doubt you will want to or I will feel comfortable in you meeting Elaine."

Seth quickly placed a kiss on Randy's shoulder to comfort the male before they walked back down. Jeanne was still setting the table and Seth looked at Randy with a shy smile before pulling away and helping her finish up. They set up a miniature Thanksgiving buffet at the center of the table and Seth's mouth began to water. He looked to Randy, wondering if this was a normal occurance for them but the football player's eyes were wide.

"Jeanne.. you made our favorite." He commented, smiling wide. He knew they never got real Thanksgiving dinner and whenever he requested Jeanne make mashed potatoes or he tried making them himself Elaine would comment on how Thanksgiving meal was only to be had with the entire family. He looked at the woman and walked over to give her a tight hug.

"It was actually Mr. Orton's idea. I just prepared it."

Randy smiled wide and squeezed her again before getting the water and juice from the fridge. He went to the base of the stairs and screamed for his family to come down "Jeanne made us dinner and if y'all don't come down here soon the three of us will have eaten it all!"

Seth laughed when Nate arrived at the kitchen moments later panting for breath. He smiled at the youngest Orton then nodded at their father before a thin girl walked behind Bob and Seth stood up from his seat. "Hi.. I'm – .."

"Seth."

Seth exhaled, nodding as he extended his hand out to her and for a moment he feared the girl wouldn't shake it but then Becky stuck her hand out and pulled him in for a one-armed hug. He blinked in surprise upon hearing the girl welcome him.

Randy watched Seth once everyone was seated and smiled a bit as he silently asked Seth if everything was okay. They all helped themselves to the potatoes, turkey, gravy, stuffing, and biscuits as a comfortable chatter filled the dining room. Even Jeanne was talking about her childhood and how Thanksgiving was her favorite meal too because of the potatoes and gravy. Randy found himself wondering how he knew so little about the woman that had been working for the Orton household for a little over two years. The only thing that put him off over dinner was how little Becky was eating and how every time she reached for a biscuit she pretty much flinched away from them only to stare at her plate for a few seconds.

He'd reached under the table to rest a hand on Seth's thigh at some point, needing the comfort. Randy was grateful when he felt the Iowan's hand over his own and they continued their meal like nothing was amiss. When Becky stood up at the end of dinner Randy looked up at her, "Becks.."

"Yeah?"

"I love you." His sister seemed stunned to hear that and for a few seconds she just stared at Randy in disbelief and slight apprehension as if waiting for someone to scold Randy for saying that. Moments passed and no such thing happened so Becky finally smiled and gave a slight nod and muttered a 'me too.'

Nate had long since inhaled his food and dashed upstairs to finish a 'project' though Randy was certain the boy was not doing that at all. Now it was just Seth, Jeanne, Bob, and him finishing up and enjoying calm conversation. Randy had laced his fingers with Seth's at some point and his father had started asking them about how sports were going. Seth seemed to be okay with answering questions so Randy let him do it as he just started talking with Jeanne about her personal life because he could and she could always choose not to answer.

Seth smiled at Randy's father when the man thanked Jeanne and excused himself because he needed to finish up some work. "It was nice meeting you, Mr. Orton."

"Bob, Seth. You can call me Bob or Robert if you feel the need."

Seth nodded and looked to Randy after they were alone with Jeanne, all of them had finished eating so he got up and started collecting plates. "Thank you for the meal. It was delicious."

"He's a keeper, Randy." She teased as she took the plates from Seth's hands and thanked him before shooing them away to they could go study again.

Randy thanked her as well then they were upstairs again and moving their things to Randy's room. He dropped onto his bed and groaned loudly, "I am so full but I swear I can eat another round."

Seth laughed and set his overnight bag down before getting his notebooks from his backpack and starting up some math problems while Randy was grunting on the bed. The smaller teen rolled his eyes when he got close to finishing his homework and Rand had yet to move. "Aren't you supposed to be helping me?" he scolded.

"I am providing you with emotional support, Sethie." He teased and turned on his back to watch the smaller teen. Seth was too focused on his assignment to even move so Randy decided he would just finish up his own homework starting with history and ending with the chemistry homework. Hours passed with little conversation between them except for a random question about homework until Randy finished his assignments and was left to just look at Seth. This was comfortable. Randy hadn't felt this happy being in silence with someone for years. He moved to where Seth was on the bed and sat behind him, legs on either side of the smaller male's body. Randy smiled when Seth looked at him and wrapped his arms around him "…will it bother you if I do this while you finish up?"

"I'm almost done. Just have to finish up the daily sketch for art."

Randy accepted that and placed his head on Seth's shoulder as he watched the teen scribble away. His hand was spread out over Seth's abs, eyes flicking over the curves and lines on the paper as he tried to figure out what Seth was sketching. He smiled when he realized it was the trophy Randy had on his desk signifying their qualification for nationals. Seth's fingers were surprisingly nimble and Randy found himself paying more attention to the way his boyfriend's hand twitched and moved effortlessly than he was to the drawing. It wasn't until Seth asked him what he thought that Randy looked at the paper again. His eyes widened slightly when he saw the background of the trophy as a pretty damn good representation of the school football field with one silhouette of a player on the field. "Damn.."

Seth bit his lip. "Is that good or bad?" He cuddled back against Randy and smiled to himself. They hadn't exactly cuddled or… whatever this was before but he liked it.

"It's – amazing. That didn't take you long at all!"

Seth laughed, "That is what a sketch is supposed to be."

"No but.. it is really good and detailed.."

The smaller teen blushed and shrugged, "Thank you.. I've been drawing since I was a kid. Music and art pretty much were my only escape."

Randy nodded and pulled away from Seth when the swimmer started to put his things away. "Yeah.. football and music were mine."

Seth hummed and yawned a bit as he leaned over the bed and kissed Randy's lips softly.

Randy quickly cupped Seth's face and held him still as he deepened the kiss just enough so Seth would make one of his cute noises of pleasure. He grinned against the soft lips and ran his fingers through the strands of hair that managed to fall out of Seth's ponytail. "Have I told you that you're cute?"

Seth blushed and tucked the hair behind his ear. "Maybe."

He chuckled and caressed the side of Seth's jaw, nose tracing along the slightly stubbly skin. "You just want to hear me say it again." Randy laughed even harder when Seth stuttered and shook his head.

After moments of their laughter, both teens were quiet and Seth had moved back to the bed enough for Randy to pull him onto his lap. The football player kissed the side of Seth's head and looked at the clock, frowning when he saw the time. "Are you showering now or in the morning?"

"Morning. My hair hates me."

Randy laughed, "Vain much?"

He pouted, "You don't get it. Your hair is barely even growing!"

He only laughed more and shook his head as he gently pushed Seth off him and went to retrieve a pair of boxers from his dresser. "Not helping your case, Rollins."

" Being an ass, Orton." He called back, glaring at Randy when the taller male chuckled again.

Randy just shook his head and pecked the male's flushed cheek. "Sorry, babe. I'm going to take a quick shower then we can get to bed. It is kind of late and I don't want you to be sleepy at school."

Seth couldn't help but smile at the caring words. He nodded and watched as Randy went into the bathroom. Seth waited until he heard the water turn on before undressing and changing into a pair of sweats. He shouldn't have been so nervous or shy to change in front of Randy considering how much of him the football player had already seen but he couldn't help it. He still wasn't sure when those kinds of things were okay and he was pretty self-conscious as well. Seth put his things away – except for the clothes he'd be wearing tomorrow – then plopped himself onto the bed. He picked up the small control Randy had on his nightstand and turned on the TV.

After Randy got out of the shower he saw Seth watching some talk show. He grinned to himself and hung up his towel before dropping in bed next to the teen.

Seth looked over and felt his skin heat up at the sight of Randy's still slightly damp body with nothing but a pair of boxers on. The teen's abs were getting more defined now and Seth couldn't help himself, he ran his fingers along the soft skin, plump lip tucked between his teeth as he appreciated the way his boyfriend's muscles flexed.

Randy sucked in a small breath and watched Seth's fingers go just over the waistband of his boxers only to stop and go back up. He grunted slightly and placed his hand over Seth's hand. "We have to get some rest, babe."

Seth nodded and released his now reddened lip, "I know.. want me to kill the lights?"

Randy shook his head and got up to turn off the lights. The only thing left keeping them from almost total darkness was the TV screen. The football player slid into bed next to Seth and turned to look at him. "Do you normally sleep with lights on?" he wondered even though they had slept in the same room before, he was being polite. Randy nodded when Seth said no then turned off the TV. He kissed Seth's shoulder and closed his eyes, "Thanks for visiting today."

"Mhm.. I had fun." He whispered as he cuddled against Randy. Seth's face heated up when Randy's hand pressed against his lower back and the swell of his ass, looking at Randy with a curious gaze, "You like it?" His skin only got darker but he felt the need to ask.

Randy smirked and patted the round mounds. "I do."

Seth chuckled and closed his eyes as he rested his head against Randy's chest. "And you haven't seen it bare."

Randy smirked, decidedly keeping his comment to himself. He buried his face in Seth's soft hair and inhaled slowly.

Seth grinned at the silence and settled in, still very much pleased at the way Randy was holding him and where the bigger male's hands were. "Night, Ran."

"Goodnight, Seth." He murmured back, still pressing the teen close to his chest as they both started dozing off into a surprisingly blissful sleep.

…

The football player stirred when sunlight filtered through the blinds. He could feel a weight across his chest and smirked when he saw the smaller male's arm draped over his body. Randy brought his hand up to run over the smooth skin and a shiver ran through him when Seth let out a quiet groan and pulled Randy closer. He watched the male for a moment and kissed the top of his head. Seth let out a quiet noise and squirmed closer to him. Randy bit his lip when he felt the beginnings of a morning hard-on rub against his leg. He had started to pull away but Seth whined out his name in his sleep and Randy felt heat rush through him. The larger teen ran his fingers over Seth's arm and leaned down to kiss him slowly until Seth started stirring and kissing back.

Seth awoke to the best thing in the world; Randy's lips were on his and their barely covered bodies were pressed together. He shivered when Randy sucked his tongue into his mouth, sleepy daze still fogging his senses. It wasn't until Randy crawled over him and the kiss became intense that Seth moaned loudly and fully woke up. He exhaled sharply, looking up at Randy. He knew his cheeks were flushed and his hair was already a mess but Randy was looking at him as if he was the most beautiful thing on the planet so Seth squirmed under the gaze.

He felt Seth shift under him, causing their full erections to rub together over the fabric of their boxers and Randy sucked in a breath. Seth was close to whining out but Randy kissed him again to silence him. They would hear them and Randy didn't exactly want to be interrupted right now. The football player sucked Seth's tongue into his mouth, earning a muffled moan and that only made him roll their hips together.

They began rutting against each other in a way they hadn't before and Seth could feel himself dangerously close to the edge. "R—ran…"

Randy shushed Seth and kissed down his neck, sucking a mark just over the male's collarbone so his t-shirt would be able to hide it. "Let me know if you want me to stop." He nipped at the new bruise and reveled in the sweet moan Seth let out. Randy reached down and began stroking the hot length until he felt it spasm in his grip and he held the base firmly. "Not yet.." he didn't explain why, instead kissing down Seth's lithe body and gently sucking his nipples until they became hard nubs. The football player was aching at this point; Seth had yet to touch his cock skin to skin and though Randy was willing to wait he was also dying for that to happen. Still, he didn't push.

Seth gasped when Randy began kissing over his covered cock. He could feel the hot breath and it only made him shiver with need. His body was already wound up tight but Seth couldn't form words to beg for Randy to let him come or to even touch him; he was reduced to whimpering like a damn puppy and arching against Randy. Randy hadn't done this before and Seth felt his cock begin to throb with the need to come but Randy was still preventing him from doing so. He opened his mouth to protest but then the cool air hit his dick and he bit his lip hard when he felt Randy's lips on his hot flesh. Seth's face was burning up, his entire body hot with desire as he rocked just gently up against Randy's lips. When Randy's lips wrapped around his cock and soon the entirety of his length was inside the warm mouth, Seth moaned and slid his fingers through Randy's hair. The larger teen had just enough for him to grip and Seth tugged the hair, earning a moan from Randy that traveled straight up his cock. "R…oh my god, Randy.. f-feels so good."

Randy hummed, tongue teasing Seth's balls now as he started sucking the male's length hard. His hands were roaming over Seth's body, one on his chest and playing with the hard nubs as the other groped Seth's ass. He was losing his mind, Seth's taste was a mix of his scent and something much sweeter and Randy couldn't get enough. He could feel the cock throb in his mouth so he pulled back as his thumb brushed over Seth's pucker. Randy didn't even have time to prepare before Seth's load shot into his mouth. He coughed a bit and pulled back, swallowing a small part of his release and pulling away. Randy stroked Seth through his orgasm and cursed as he watched the look of pure bliss on the male's face. He reached down to relieve himself as well but Seth's hips stuttered against him and before he even realized what happened the smaller male had turned Randy on his back and straddled him.

"You never let me help you.." Seth breathed out, almost pouting at the larger male. He used to think it was because Randy wasn't as physically attracted to Seth as Seth was to Randy but time and time again of Randy getting hard and coming just seconds after Seth let Seth know that his boyfriend definitely found him attractive. He looked down at Randy and kissed him hard, letting out a startled noise at the taste of his own come being shared into the kiss. It wasn't unpleasant, just a new experience. The swimmer nipped Randy's lip and breathed out softly, "It's not fair that you get to touch me all you want and I have yet to touch you." he explained as he shoved Randy's boxers out of the way and gripped the male's cock loosely. The weight was different, Randy was much thicker than he was and Seth shivered as he gave a few firm strokes. Part of him was curious as to how the hell they would prepare him for this stretch when the time came. "Y-you're so big." He blushed, looking down at Randy and kissing him again as he stroked him slowly, just enough to provide friction but not enough to make the male come. Seth kissed along Randy's jaw and continued to stroke him before latching on to the male's neck and sucking hard. He'd marked Randy in a very visible place and he could only hope Randy wouldn't mind.

Randy cursed when Seth marked next to the sensitive spot on his neck, arching against Seth and gasping when the tip of his cock brushed between Seth's firm ass. He thought Seth would shy away from it but the smaller teen released his cock and instead started rutting against him, never making a move to penetrate himself but the rutting was enough. Randy's stomach tightened as he clutched at Seth's back and dragged his blunt nails down the skin, "Seth.. fuck, baby. Faster, please.."

Seth's cheeks flared again but he moved faster, eyes glued to Randy's face as he watched the male get closer and closer to the edge. His own hips stuttered when he felt the hot liquid against his ass, moaning loudly only to get pulled down for a heated kiss when Randy was at the very peak of his orgasm. They panted against each other's lips, kissing sloppily as their hands roamed over each other's bodies. He didn't know how long they kissed for but soon Seth's head was dizzy with lack of air and he was forced to pull away. Randy dropped back against the mattress and Seth bit his lip as he looked down at him, kissing his jaw and up to his forehead.

Randy licked his lips and massaged Seth's back in a soothing manner until they both regained their composure. He looked up at Seth with a dopey smile and pecked his lips before leaving their foreheads pressed together. "That.. was amazing."

Seth chuckled and kissed Randy again before carefully getting off him and stepping towards the bathroom. "We have to rinse off before breakfast. They will get one look and know." He blushed at that but Randy just grinned and followed him into the restroom like the smug jerk he was. Seth wouldn't have it any other way.

A week had come and gone since Elaine was at a hotel and Randy's parents figured out what was going to happen and when. Randy had only spoken to his mother once, when he needed to get her to sign a slip for Nate to practice at the high school. Things were getting complicated at home but mostly because Becky had started to act out and she stopped doing her school work which was only adding to the stress already on their father. Randy asked their dad for permission before signing Becks up for a counseling appointment at school, hoping that it would at least help the girl a little bit.

"Randy, I need to tell you something."

He looked at his father, frowning but giving a slight nod. Randy had just packed his overnight bag because they had a game in San Diego today and they'd be sleeping in a hotel before driving back home Saturday morning. He set his bag down and stared at his dad.

"The paperwork has been started but.. she's battling for custody. She's.. ah, using my job against me."

Randy nodded, looking down and picking up his sports bag. "Okay.. I'll prepare Nate for that before the first hearing.. how long do you have?"

"First hearing is in three weeks. She will be stopping by and picking her stuff up during that time."

He sighed and closed his eyes for a brief moment. Randy had been avoiding speaking to Seth's mom about helping out but it looked like there was no escaping it now. "Okay. I will talk to him soon.. you need to speak to Becks, dad.. she's not used to having people worry for her and.. she doesn't know what to do since Elaine isn't around dictating her every move." Randy didn't even apologize for saying that before grabbing his keys and placing a kiss on his father's cheek. "We'll get through this, Pa."

Bob smiled and hugged his eldest son tightly before nodding and grabbing his own keys, "I'll take Nate to school today."

Randy smiled and nodded before heading out. He ran into Jeanne in the driveway, smiling at the woman and nodding, "I'll see you after school, Jeanne." The woman had two small bags of groceries and Randy could only assume she had planned a special dinner because Bob told her about what was happening too. "Thanks for sticking around."

Jeanne blinked in surprise, not even getting a chance to answer her boss's son before he was in his car and driving away. She stuck around because they needed help and because she'd grown attached to Randy and Nate. They reminded her of her nephews.

Randy's phone was buzzing the entire way to Seth's house and he knew it would be about the game but he couldn't focus on that right now so he ignored everything and just worried about getting to Seth's and then getting through the school day. Baby steps and it would all be okay; at least that's what he told himself.
