It was late Saturday morning and Nate, Ryan, Thad, Trent, Flint, Blaine, Kurt, Nick, Jeff, Wes and David sat around the usual Warbler table in the cafeteria.
Nate had just finished filling the other guys in on how he got the fat lip and bruised nose. His eyes were slightly black today too, which had developed over night while it was iced.
Jeff looked over to Ryan, trying to work out why the shirt he was wearing looked familiar. He realised suddenly, looking at Nate. Both Ryan and Nate looked very happy and relaxed this morning and were sat extremely close. He smiled before deciding to tease them a little.
"Hey Ryan, Nate's shirt looks good on you!" He smirked as all the other Warbler's eyes flew to the couple, sudden recognition dawning on their faces.
Ryan blushed, but shrugged good-naturedly, saying, "Thanks, Jeff, I think so too." He smiled at Nate adoringly.
Nate, as usual, couldn't keep the comment from coming out "Yeah, everything of mine looks good on Ryan." David, Wes, Jeff and Nick howled with laughter at that one. David slapped Nate on the shoulder in congratulations of their obviously deepening relationship.
Ryan hid his burning face behind his hand laughing "Oh my god. You did not just say that." He shoulder bumped Nate, receiving a "What?" expression back from the black haired boy.
"TMI!" Kurt piped up, rolling his eyes and screwing his face up over his cup of coffee.
Thad looked down at his buzzing phone. He quickly leant in to Trent's neck to whisper in his ear "I'll meet you in the library in 20 minutes. Usual corner?"
Trent shivered at the delicious feel of Thad's breath on his neck, sending tingles all over him. He smiled and nodded, wondering who was calling him. It's probably family, I know he has some event to go to tomorrow, because he said he needs to get his homework done today. I like spending study time with him, it really is "our" time. He watched Thad walk out of the cafeteria, answering his phone and slinging his study bag over his shoulder.
He caught Flint's eye after watching Thad disappear. Flint smiled widely at his roommate's obvious happiness.
"Hey, Mum! Is everything okay? Mark hasn't got cold feet for tomorrow's wedding has he?" Thad laughed, not really expecting that to be the case. His cousin and his fiancee had been sweethearts since high school and they graduated seven years ago now. No couple like them would ever split up in his mind.
"Thad, darling. No, nothing like that, at least I hope not!" His Mum's musical laugh rang out from his phone.
"No, I just wanted to ask you whether you were still adamant about not needing a plus-one for the wedding. I don't want to pry, sweetheart, but I've been thinking about it since we talked about your feelings for Trent. I know it can be a bit scary at the beginning of the relationship, but now you've been on a couple of dates with him I thought I would ask if you want to invite him. I've already checked with my sister and there is plenty of room to seat him at our table if you want. How did your date go any way?"
Thad smiled broadly. "Uh, it went really well, Mum. I took him to dinner and then a scary film at the movies."
Thad's Mum interrupted, laughing. "I see! Yes, your Dad used to try that one with me! So, did it work?"
"Mum! That's a mental image I do not want!" He laughed along with her. "But, uh, yes, it did. I really like him, Mum."
"Awww! So are you going to ask him to the wedding?" She prompted, waiting.
"Okay, yes, I will. I was wondering about that any way, I just assumed it was too late." He admitted. "Also, is Dad okay with this? He's been so busy and I haven't had a chance to talk to him about it." He asked nervously.
"Oh, honey. I can't speak for all the family, but your Dad and I are happy with whatever makes you happy. If anyone makes you feel uncomfortable then come to one of us and we'll deal with it. Okay?"
"Okay, Mum. Thank you. I'd better go, I'm meeting Trent to study in the library." He smiled as he said that.
"Oh, so that's what you call it these days is it?" His Mum teased.
Thad blushed. "Okay, Mum, now I really am going. Bye! Love you."
"Love you too, dear. Bye."
Thad headed for his and Trent's usual table in the library. They had always picked this table, even before he had realised his feelings for his sassy friend. It couldn't be more secluded if we tried, last table at the back, partly obscured by bookcases. Maybe our subconsciences were trying to hint to us all along. He laughed to himself as he spread out his things, starting work on his history essay before Trent arrived.
He was lost in his flow of thought, hand flying across the page when Trent arrived.
Trent carefully placed their coffees he was carrying and the two chocolate muffins in a bag on the table before going round behind Thad, waiting for a pause in his writing. When Thad lifted his pen to think, he jumped in surprise then immediately relaxed as he felt hands rest on his shoulders, squeezing before running around to his chest as his boyfriend's arms wrapped him in a hug from behind.
"Mmmm." Thad sighed. "Hey there, gorgeous."
Trent inwardly squealed at this term of endearment and squeezed him tightly before leaning around to kiss his cheek before moving to his seat next to Thad and sitting down.
"Hey yourself. I brought you some coffee and a muffin for studying support." He smiled. "How much have you got to do?" He asked.
"Well, I'm about half-way through my history essay, then one more for english literature and a quiz for math." He rolled his eyes.
Trent looked sympathetic. "Well, I can keep you company. I have quite a lot to do, not all for Monday, but doing it early will only help me later I suppose."
Thad smiled. "Thanks Trent." He slid his hand under the table to squeeze his boyfriend's leg, dragging his fingers slightly and ending up a little higher than intended, but he didn't notice Trent's eyes flying wide before he gulped, hiding his embarrassment at getting so turned on by a simple touch.
Oblivious, Thad continued. "I had something I needed to ask you, actually."
Trent squeaked "Yes?" in a high pitched voice. He cleared his throat before continuing, "What is it?"
"Well, you know that family thing I've got tomorrow?" Trent nodded. "It's my cousin, Mark's wedding. I was just talking to my Mum and she said there is room for me to bring a, uh, date." He smiled at Trent's breathless anticipation, knowing now that he had done the right thing.
"So... I was hoping you would accompany me?" He asked, gazing into his favourite green eyes as he waited for a reply.
Trent couldn't help smiling widely as he replied. "I'd love to!" He leant forward to hug Thad tightly, before suddenly drawing back, looking horrified.
"What is it?" Thad asked, worried.
Trent spluttered "What am I going to wear?!" He looked indignantly at his boyfriend as he began to laugh heartily at his predicament.
Trent swatted him on the arm, unimpressed with his diva-face in place. "This is serious!" He complained over the laughter.
Both boys were suddenly hushed by the librarian, who usually sat across the other side of the room, out of their line of sight, but must have needed to walk by them for a moment.
Thad swallowed his laughter, turning to Trent to whisper. "Well, I think you looked amazing for our first date. Those black pants and waistcoat are just right and that green shirt really brings out your eyes."
He remembers what I wore on our first date! Trent swooned inwardly. He winked saucily at Thad. "Well, okay, since you asked so nicely." He did the eyelash-fluttering smile that always made Thad's stomach flip.
Thad's mouth had gone suddenly dry so he licked his lips. He saw Trent's eyes flicker down to watch him wet his lips, eyes darkening.
The reception was in full swing at the fancy hotel. Dessert had just finished and they were waiting for coffee as the dancing entertainment was just beginning.
Thad got up from his seat at the table and stood beside Trent, offering his hand. "Will you dance with me?" He asked softly. Trent smiled and stood up, taking his hand and the two boys walked wordlessly to the dancefloor.
Thad put his right hand on Trent's waist and Trent did the same with his left. They held their other hands together and swayed, as Thad softly sang Bruno Mars' lyrics to him, gazing into his eyes as they turned, changing the words slightly to fit singing to a boy.
Oh, his eyes, his eyes, make the stars look like they're not shining
His hair, his hair, falls perfectly without him trying
He's so beautiful, and I tell him every day
Yeah, I know, I know, when I compliment him he won't believe me
And it's so, it's so, sad to think that he don't see what I see
But every time he asks me do I look ok, I say
When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Because boy you're amazing, just the way you are(yeah)
Thad twirled Trent, ending up with their hands held outstretched together for some faster dancing as they relaxed.
His lips, his lips, I could kiss them all day if he let me
His laugh, his laugh, he hates but I think it's so sexy He winked at Trent, who's eyes widened
He's so beautiful, and I tell him every day
Oh, you know, you know, you know, I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for then just stay the same
So, don't even bother asking if you look ok
You know I'll say Thad spun Trent, catching him back in his arms again to dance close
When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Because boy you're amazing, just the way you are
The way you are, the way you are
Boy you're amazing, just the way you are
When I see your face, there's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing, just the way you are
And when you smile, the whole world stops and stares for a while
Cause boy you're amazing, just the way you are. Yeah
The boys reluctantly broke apart, eyes shining as Thad brought Trent's hand up to kiss his knuckles, before the next song began.
After the wedding, Thad drove Trent back to Dalton. It was dark as they finally pulled into a parking spot. Thad killed the engine, but stayed in his seat and turned to Trent, smiling.
"Thank you for coming today, Trent. I know it was a bit awkward with some of the older family members staring at us." He rolled his eyes.
Trent smiled. "Well, your Mum and Dad's reaction more than made up for that. I'm so pleased they are supportive of us dating." He reached out to hold Thad's hand, squeezing it tight.
Thad had gone too long without a kiss from his gorgeous boyfriend. The air grew thick in the car as Thad used their joined hands to tug Trent towards him slightly, leaning in to meet him half way. He closed the gap between their lips and kissed Trent firmly, deepening it after only a few moments. He heard Trent's moan and felt it through his tongue, sending shivers down his spine.
Thad reached out with his left hand to sneak it under Trent's jacket and rested it on his side over his waistcoat, stroking tenderly up and down, before becoming bolder and venturing lower. His hand rested on the side of Trent's hips, fingers gradually exploring further round to his backside.
Trent sighed into the kiss. He's such a good kisser, his tongue feels amazing against mine. His pants were starting to get tight, because of the kissing but also where Thad's hands were roaming. So close, his hand is sooo close. His brain was yelling at him to stop, but a certain other part of his body definitely wasn't. Thad's hand moved nearer the front of his pants again and Trent panicked when he felt his rapidly hardening cock twitch. He sat up suddenly, breathless, avoiding Thad's worried eyes.
Thad let go of Trent's thigh and reached up to stroke his cheek as he asked "I'm sorry, Trent. Did I do something wrong? Are you okay?"
Trent tried to calm his breathing, willing his hard-on away, covering it as much as possible with his jacket as he answered, "No, no... I mean, yes, I'm okay." He coughed, embarrassed. "Uh, I'm more than okay. That's the problem."
Thad's eyes widened in realisation. He couldn't help doing a little mental happy dance that he had affected Trent that way. "Please don't be embarrassed."
Trent rolled his eyes. "I'm sorry. It's just that you're more experienced than me, it probably doesn't affect you like this."
Thad's eyes darkened as he replied, honestly. "I can assure you experience has nothing to do with it and you definitely have the same effect on me."
Trent's eyes widened and he relaxed, glad it wasn't just him. "Oh." Was all he could think of to say. His brain, however, was yelling, I turn him on! I turn him on!
The boys climbed out of the car and walked back to the main building, arms around each other's waists. Thad deliberately let his hand slip lower to brush over Trent's ass, before swiftly covering it up by opening the door for his boyfriend to enter. Trent arched his eyebrow in a "I know what you just did" look, before sashaying into the foyer ahead of him.
Thad smirked and ran to catch up with him, linking their hands as they climbed the stairs to Warbler floor.
