Cobra moved around his dorm room, putting his clothes away, the odds and ends he'd picked up on the trip, including his suit, which he hung up in its wrap. He had class in the morning and it was time to get back to reality now that they were back from Bosco.

He pulled a big bag out and stopped, smiling faintly…candy. He reached in and popped a gummy bear into his mouth, moving to get it all into containers so he could stash it. Once that was done he looked around his dorm room and let out a breath…suddenly at odds over what to do next. It wasn't quite dinner time yet, not that he had anything but ramen and candy in his room…

His phone buzzed and he pulled it out, frowning then making a face when he saw a number he thought he'd blocked.

He had all of three men he'd ever allowed to see him more than once, two were still back in Crocus…one…was apparently in Magnolia on business..

Hammerly: Heard you transferred to Fiore U after the earthquake, I'm in town, come meet me at the Hilton bar, I'll buy you dinner, I have some really nice rolex watches, you can pick one out.

Glaring at his phone Cobra blocked the number and deleted the text…staring for a minute…why would he delete a sugar daddy? A meal and a rolex and all he'd have to do was probably blow the guy, that was Hammerly's thing, he loved blow jobs. His phone chimed again and his eyes snapped to it.

Farron to Cobra: Hey, I ordered a pizza and hotwings, want to review notes for class tomorrow?

Cobra sucked in a breath at the feelings that hit him and shoved them back. He had just spent a week with Farron, had seen him not even 2 hours ago, he was NOT excited.

Cobra to Farron: You got drinks?

Farron to Cobra: Ordered some soda, come on down, we should freshen up on class before tomorrow and I'm starved.

Cobra shoved his phone into his pocket, grabbing his backpack and shouldering it and heading from his room.

Ling was in the hall, the Junior smiled at him "So…you still seeing the class President? Nicest ass I've seen in ages on him holy shit." Cobra glowered at the man, Ling was a flaming flagrant over the top type, wore his Gay pride things all the time, took a lot of shit for it too.

"None of your business." He snapped, heading to the elevator

"If you're not let me know…I want to ask him out!" Ling called and Cobra hissed, grateful when the elevator doors closed, even more grateful when he found Farrons door wasn't locked, walking in without knocking because he never knocked…

Farron was half in his closet…stark naked…Cobras eyes widened, the blonde was facing away from him, obviously fresh from a shower, going through his clothes to find something to wear..

Cobras eyes trailed from the honey gold hair, broad shoulders…well defined muscular back..a flawless, tight rounded ass…no tan lines though he could see faint lines on Farrons hips likely he laid out for sun in a damned thong then…he turned a bit and Cobra got a glimpse of what the cut adonis line led to before Farron was bending to pull on some track pants, plucking a simple maroon tank top from the chest of drawers in his closet out and pulling that over his head to hug his well defined torso.

Farrons was far from the first male body he'd seen obviously…but he'd only ever seen the man in pants..shorts, swim trunks…never..naked. His mouth had gone dry…he felt the tightness of what were usually loose pants and when Farron turned, those sky blue eyes warmed on him and the treacherous bastard in his pants twitched…just meeting those fucking eyes had him even harder…he wanted to go slam the damn thing in a door. Especially when those all too sharp and far too aware blue eyes shot down at the movement and caught his ass starting to pitch a damn tent in his sweats like some teenager.

His first instinct was…run…but his way was blocked…by a fucking pizza delivery guy suddenly knocking on the doorframe. Thank God his back was to the door…he froze, just fucking froze, standing there, eyes retreating to stay on the floor and not watch the blonde.

Farron moved, walking past him, paying the guy and collecting his order he closed his door behind the guy…and locked it. Cobras hearing aides were on so he heard it…though he would have probably felt that bolt go into place. He stood, frozen to the spot and not sure why beyond the fact he was fighting with himself over whether or not running was a good idea…he could go back to his room…but he knew Farron well enough now…the shit would probably follow his sorry ass.

He felt Farron come up behind him and held still…barely breathing…why didn't his damn dick get the memo and quit already?!

"Let me touch you…please…" Farron said quietly by his ear and Cobras eyes slid closed at that soft pleading tone.

He was going to say no, he was, firmly and decisively no, he valued his friendship with Farron, and he was an asshole, finding friends was hard for him…Farron was going to just hate him…he'd only had sex ever with old men too...and damn his fluttering chest, his hard as hell dick...and his serious weakness for blondes…somehow, that No he was so sure of came out.
"Yes."

The next thing he knew, warm hands were sliding over his sides to his hips and pulling him back against that body…fuck it was good he wasn't facing him because he was sure he had blushed and hated it, hated he was…he hated feeling embarrassed…but when Farrons hand slid along the waist of his sweats he leaned back into him because he wasn't sure his legs would hold him.

When warm soft lips touched his neck those knees really did go weak, his head tipping giving the blonde more access…Gods where was his bravado, his snark? Where was all of his resolve to not get into anything with men his own age…because it would only lead to bad things…but Farrons hand had gone between his legs and was lightly stroking him and all of his willpower was just fucking gone, so far out of his reach he couldn't even imagine stopping now.

He reached back, hand sliding over a hard thigh and he felt Farron suck in a breath at his touch though his lips didn't stop on his neck, that hot tongue swirled on his skin and Cobra gripped that thigh getting a sexy toe curling moan out of Farron that drew an answering one from him…

"I don't…you're the only friend I have…" Cobra said weakly, objecting even as he turned, even as his fingers reached and dove into that honey colored hair.

"My study partner…" he added as another objection to this, as he eagerly reached right in for the kiss, moaning as Farrons lips slid against his, as strong arms closed around him. The kiss was soft but only for a few moments…Cobra the one who changed it…he was starved for this, for intimacy…touch..he'd deny it forever but he deeply enjoyed being held, being kissed…he'd had a couple of men who had been gentle with him…only a couple…usually it was rough and fast and sometimes downright painful…but this…Farron held him, the kiss just got better, deep…he could drown in it…could spend days with that cinnamon taste Farron had, explore the blondes mouth with his tongue, the feel of Farrons sliding along his..silky heavy soft damp honey colored hair in his hands.

When they broke to breathe they were both panting and Cobra stared into Farrons eyes, searching…if there was anything there that hinted at smugness…at this not being serious…he'd tear the door off it's frame getting the hell out…but all he saw was…hope, desire, the same depth of want and need and lust he felt himself and he lunged, hands coming from the soft blonde locks to grip Farrons shoulders as he wrapped his legs around Farrons hips, wantonly grinding himself against Farron, moaning when he felt Farrons hard length with his own…the blonde was as turned on as he was…thank fuck…

Farron carried him to the bed…

"I'll always be your friend…always…just please…fuck…let me be more…" Farron pleaded against his lips and Cobra pulled back, looking at him again.

"You break up with me we're still fucking study partners…"He growled and Farron blinked but then smiled faintly, cheeks flushed because he had been about head over heels for this man since they had kissed on the fire escape "Not going to break up with you…but I'll promise you anything right now…" He admitted.

Cobra smirked a bit then "Wanna get in my pants huh?"

Farron chuckled a bit, lunging in to kiss the man breathless again, sucking on his lower lip until Cobra started grinding their hips together again.

"Fuck…you are the sexiest thing…" Farron panted and Cobra felt his confidence keep rising…grabbing the bottom of Farrons tank top and yanking it up as he unwrapped his legs from around the mans hips, kneeling on the bed, throwing the top to the side and lunging in, hands sliding over that smooth skin, feeling that hard muscle underneath as he scraped his teeth on a rounded hard pec, thrilled by how that felt, Gods…Farron was built…and panting…hard and touching him…pulling his own shirt off, it joined Farrons on the floor and he paused as his mouth hovered over…a pierced nipple.

"Piercings…" He looked up at Farron with a quirked brow and Farron smiled back unashamed.

"Ears, nipples and navel. I didn't wear them on the beach because the sun heats them up." he nodded and Cobra groaned, hand gliding to the navel, finding a diamond there. Silver rings hugged Farrons nipples…and he sucked on one for a bit until Farrons hands were under his sweatpants, sliding over his ass.

Then his own hands were grabbing the waist of Farrons pants and yanking them down but Farron bent…not letting Cobra get his mouth on his target, instead climbing onto the bed with him, kissing him, getting his pants off of him, his shoes hitting the floor and once Cobra was laid back on the bed, he stared in disbelief as the blonde…went down on him…

He hissed, gripping the sheets as that hot mouth engulfed his erection…Gods help him…he'd found a man his age…gorgeous…from a good family…smart, educated, ambitious and hard working…who eagerly went right down on him…He was so done for….yahtzee…he'd won the prize.

He felt it then…as Farrons head went up and down, soft blonde hair brushing Cobras thighs..Farrons fingers fondling his balls… then one was teasing his entrance…

"Yes…like that…that's what I want.." Cobra writhed on the bed then and Farron pulled back, sucking all the way up Cobras length and making his toes curl until he came off and climbed up his body, reaching into the nightstand and pulling out a bottle of lube and a condom…he wasn't used to it…half the time he had to fight with men to put condoms on, and to get them to take the time to use lube…Farron didn't just use it though…oh no, his head slammed back on the pillows when the mans slicked fingers started working him…he'd never felt anything like it…nobody had ever done this to him…nobody…he'd fingered himself sure…but feeling Farron doing it, pushing generous amounts of lube into him, making sure it was just…pure…amazing…pleasure…

He spread his legs more crying out when Farrons hot mouth was on him again, sucking at him while he worked his entrance until he was a damned mess, panting and gasping.

When he pulled back again Farron took a moment to take it in, the flushed cheeks, kiss swollen lips, heaving chest…"You're gorgeous…damn Cobra…" Farron breathed.

"Erik…my name is Erik." He said, not sure why but…he wanted Farron to use his name…wanted to hear it from those lips…

"Erik…" Farron purred and the redhead moaned…writhing, whining…he was so hard it hurt…his body was ready…eager and Farron moved between his legs, lining himself up and pushing the head of his erection into the man. Both of them let out ragged moans.

"Shit…" Erik groaned and pushed his hips up, never had anyone going into him felt better…usually it hurt like hell for the first bit but then nobody had worked on him with their fingers before fucking him before and he was just begging for more and Farron sank into him, Cobra watching his face contort with pleasure and he damn near came right there…watching those lips curl from those white teeth, feeling Farrons muscles tighten as he fought himself for a moment, then those heated blue eyes were on him asking and Cobra dug a heel into Farrons ass to demand he not wait anymore.

For the next while it was kissing…thrusting, twisting, grabbing, caresses and bites, moans and cries of pleasure, Erik heard his name coming in ragged gasps from Farron….Farrons name spilling from his own more than once, he had no idea how long they went…but Farron found his sweet spot, and then it wasn't long...because the blonde got his hands down on either side of Erik and just relentlessly pounded into that until Cobra was coming harder than he ever had in his life, body arching on the bed as his seed spilled over his own stomach…then he felt Farron cum inside of him, groaning out "Erik…" as he did and then they were both panting, Farron easing out of Eriks body and laying beside him, Erik gasping for air grateful he hadn't passed out, eyes on the ceiling…worry wanting to come back…"what ifs" wanting to rise up but then Farron was moving…and he felt a warm tongue on his abs…gathering some of what he'd released then lifting his head, eyes on Eriks as he licked his lips and smirked.

"We should eat something…drink…then I want more of you…" Farron purred and Erik caught his breath at the look, managing a smirk. He isn't regretting this, he wants more, those eyes, that smile… Eriks heart was pounding with the reality that Farron looked happy, and was looking at him like there was nothing in the world he wanted more.

"What about our notes…reviewing for class? I want a fucking A in that class Pradesh…" He said firmly and Farron slid his hand to Eriks semi hard length, cupping him and rubbing the over sensitive flesh until Erik groaned.

"Food..drinks…sex…then we study, I promise." Farron said and Erik couldn't even fucking muster his voice to answer, he just nodded, watching Farron walk naked over to the desk where he'd left their food.

They had a makeshift picnic on the bed then…and then Farron shocked Erik by delivering an even better experience than the first one…all slow, tender…by the time he came again…he could say without doubt now…he knew what it was when someone made love to him and it honestly…scared the hell out of him for a bit…because it was so good, and he was instantly…addicted. There was no going back…he was doomed…he'd never been with anyone like Farron before, who listened to him, respected him…was his age…and Gods help him he couldn't even imagine anyone else now…he wanted more…craved it now…craved those soft kisses and touches, those sweet words telling him he was safe, there was no loosing anyone, no matter what…Farron wouldn't leave him even if things didn't work out…and after an amazing round of sex in the shower, they curled up together on the bed and reviewed their notes for class, until Erik fell asleep curled up on Farron, the blonde kissing his hair.

"Sweet dreams Erik." He breathed before reaching over to turn the light out and pull the blankets over them. The blonde settled Erik against him, smiling when the redhead curled into him better, it was like he was just starved for affection…contact…once he let the barriers down, the "Cobra" became Erik and Erik was…amazing. He loved both, he knew he did, his heart had belonged to the sharp tongued and flighty redhead since they had met, and he was going to do everything he could to make sure that Cobra didn't regret showing him his soft side…letting him in. He kissed the mans temple, enjoying how the mans arms tightened, how the warm breath felt on his skin as Eriks face tucked in against his neck and he made sure his alarm was set so they could get up in time to get to class.

Lucy could only stare…

They were all in the student center, it was lunch time, they had all been to their morning classes, Levy hadn't gotten in until late and had told Lucy when she had she needed sleep and they would all have to talk at lunch the next day, Cana was safe, but they all needed to talk.

Now they were sitting in a far corner of the student center well away from the other students and Levy and Cris had just explained all that had happened.

Zen was the first to speak "So that's why she wasn't in class…she's transferring her credits." he said, jaw tight and that was the only visible sign he was upset.

Bickslow shook his head "She's smart to do it…that shit, her name is gonna be wrecked here in Fiore."

"Not the worst of it…" Vander said in a grim tone, turning his phone around and Lucy sucked in a breath as a video showing Cana bent over, a man underneath her, another behind her, and another still pumping in and out of her mouth…three men…and Cana was completely naked…the men just had their pants open…it was daylight…across from them coming down the sidewalk a child was pointing at them and a mother was grabbing him and turning him away yelling into her phone. Things were "fuzzed" on the screen so you couldn't see everything but…it was clear what was happening and while Canas dark hair hid her face for most of it…there were a few moments where you could see her…identify her.

"This is viral…over a million hits since it was posted this morning…" Vander said

"Where is she?" Zen asked.

"She was at admin doing the transfer at 7 this morning, she went to her bank, she has to cancel her cards because her purse was stolen, get a new driver's license." Levy replied.

"How's she getting there with no cards?" Zen asked frowning.

"I gave her cash." Cristoff said and Zen drew a breath, shaking his head.

"Why…" Lucy breathed, dumbfounded, she couldn't understand why Cana would be so reckless..

"She was drunk…shit, she's always getting drunk." Laxus said,

"Should we go help?" Erza asked and Levy shook her head.

"No…no she doesn't want any of us involved more than Cris and I already have been, Gods..the video is already up…" Levy had a hand over her mouth, horrified by the number of hits on it.

"There's no hiding it…that video is going to be all over campus fast…" Gray said, he knew Cana probably better than Levy did…and was shaking his head, she'd never gotten herself into something this bad before.

"Hey Zen! Looks like your girl had some fun without you!" Someone shouted from a group of people walking by, the sounds from their phone turned all the way up so there was no mistaking what they were watching. Loud laughter came from the group.

Zen tensed and Farron put a hand on his shoulder "Easy…any fighting from you will make everything worse." He said quietly.

"Hard to imagine worse right now Fare." Zen responded, nobody knew outside their circle yet that Zen and Cana had broken up…so people were obviously talking.

"You know it's still better than the sock you enjoy, Fetterman!" Cobra called "Make sure to use lotion more so you're not spending classes scratching at your dick yeah?"

"Fuck you Cobra!" The man hissed…but the laughing died.

Farron pursed his lips, raising a brow at Cobra who snorted and lifted his drink to his lips.

"Sitting around worrying isn't getting shit done...it's gonna be a shit show, you all know it, she dug in deep, how long till her court date?" Cobra asked

"Next week…she can't leave the country, so she's going to miss next semester for sure but she's enrolled starting next fall at Bellum U." Levy replied, scooting closer to Cris, grateful when his arm settled around her and she could tuck herself in against his side.

"Will the University let her stay here until then?" Erza asked and Farron was who answered.

"Not likely…she's lucky they worked with her this morning…she probably got in ahead of the video spreading or they would have terminated her and she'd have nothing to transfer with." Farron said shaking his head. He was student body president, he knew well how conservative the University was, what Cana had done…parents would want her gone and fast.

"How's she going to…I mean where will she stay?" Lucy asked, worried.

"With me." Erza said firmly "I have an apartment off campus, she can stay with me until her court date."

Gray nodded "Yeah I have a place in the same complex, I can help out…we should probably help her pack up when she gets back."

"We can use my truck to move her things." Cris volunteered "Can you hold onto her things while she's…in jail?" he asked and Erza nodded "Yeah it can all stay at my place, it's fine."

They talked a while longer, most of them barely touching their food. Then there was a shout.

"Whore! Get the fuck off campus!" That had them all looking wide eyed to one side.

"You've got some nerve showing your face."

"Skank!"

Zen was on his feet, seeing Cana walking toward them, her head high and her mouth pressed in a flat line. The Dean was walking with her, and cast hard looks at the students and that shut them up, they walked to the table.

"I have to leave…immediately." Cana said when she reached everyone. The Dean nodded.

"Miss Alberona is no longer a student here, she says you all will be helping her leave campus?" He looked over the group, eyes especially hard on Farron, him being associated with Cana..wasn't good.

Cristoff stood "I'll go get my truck." he said and Levy stood with him, squeezing his hand and getting a warm reassuring smile from him before he was hurrying off.

"We have a place for her to stay figured out." Erza said, also standing. Canas eyes widened

"You do?" She asked, the desperation in her face was vivid, she really had no idea what she was going to do. She didn't even have a car..

"Yes." Erza said firmly

"We'll get her moved out sir." Gray said and the Dean nodded.

"Security is already waiting at the freshman dorm, so head over there now…when I say she is leaving immediately, I mean right now." The Dean said firmly and everyone was on their feet, semi surrounding Cana and heading for the dorm.

Security was there, and watched as they packed Cana up and loaded her things into Cristoffs truck. Cana watched Zen, as the man silently hefted things, he never looked at her and it made her heart sink. Gray went to get his car and so did Erza, Natsu going with Gray and Bickslow, Levy and Cana climbed into Cristoffs truck.

"Can…can we go with them?" Lucy looked uncertainly at Kaleb who drew a breath then smiled when Laxus pulled out his car keys.

"Yeah lets go…she doesn't need this many people to move what little she's got but…I'll take you over there Lucy." Laxus said and Lucy slid her hand into Kalebs, looking at him and Kaleb nodded, moving with her to follow Laxus.

With so many people it took moments to get everything Cana had into Ezra's apartment and the one bedroom apartment felt small with everyone standing in it. Cana looked around at everyone and drew a breath.

"I know…none of you understand why I did what I did…I don't either…I just got really drunk…and did something really stupid and I'm paying for it…I know none of you have to be here, none of you needed to stand by me and I'm so…grateful…that all of you have. I'm sorry…I'm sorry I fucked up, I'm sorry I…hurt Zen…" she shook her head. Zen wasn't there, he, Farron and Cobra hadn't come to the apartment and she well understood why…

"I lied when I said the things I did to him at that party…it was all me and my issues…and I handled it all really bad and I'm sorry…I…I'm just so grateful you…you are still here…" She broke down then, tears falling and Levy was the fastest to her, followed by Gray then Erza, enfolding the woman in hugs while she cried.

She didn't deserve the friends she had…she'd been a horrible person for the last several months…but she was going to change that...she was ashamed…the jeers at school…she knew Zen was going to catch fallout because it hadn't been a secret they were dating…and she'd seen the Deans hard look at Farron so he likely would as well, but she'd find a way to make things right…somehow.

A short time later people had to go, there were still classes, some of them had already skipped at least one and Cana wouldn't hear of any of them sacrificing more for her, hugging Levy she also hugged Cristoff, holding onto him as everyone was leaving, Levy saw it and smiled, heading for Cristoffs truck and letting Cana have a moment.

"I'm grateful…you didn't have to help me you know…Levy already loves you to death…and she wouldn't have thought at all less of you if you hadn't stepped in like you have." Cana said quietly and Cris shook his head, returning her hug.

"Everyone deserves second chances…you're owning what you did…not trying to deflect it…you need, before you leave, to apologize to my brother, but you don't owe me anything…like I said before, I'm doing what I'm doing for Levy more than for you, if not for her…I wouldn't have helped you and I won't claim some big chivalry here and say I would or let you think I would. I'll keep my promise, you'll have money to get to Bellum and get set there…then I'm done, understand? You've hurt everyone, and need to handle the bed you made for yourself." Cris said and Cana stepped back, nodding solemnly.

"I will…" She said firmly and Cris nodded, turning and heading for his truck, leaving Cana to stand, taking some slow breaths to keep herself together before she headed up the stairs, smiling faintly seeing Gray and Erza waiting for her…she had a long road ahead of her.

-

Lucy sat on Kalebs bed, working on the wacom he'd bought to help with their art class, eyes lifting to watch Kaleb for a few minutes as he focused on his part of things. They hadn't done anything in Bosco…she'd wanted to, but everything at the party had made such a mess of things and she'd been so worried that…they just hadn't gotten time to relax together…

He was there, right with her, steady support as they had all gone through it, but they hadn't really…played…since the first night in Bosco more than a week ago now. He sat there in snug faded jeans, a thermal shirt stretched over his torso because it had snowed the night before and was very cold outside…her ugg boots sat by the door next to his snow boots near the radiator and she frowned. He was Boscan…they were very physical people..and the little discussion with Farron about how they sought pleasure when they wanted it kept coming to her…her boyfriend…hadn't had "release" since the first night in Bosco…had he…no she really did believe Kaleb would ask her before he did something…wouldn't he?

"Kaleb?" She finally ventured and lavender eyes came up and met hers, seeing her chewing her lip he frowned slightly because he'd learned that usually meant she had something bothering her, so he turned from the computer to give her his full attention.

"Are you ok? I…you're Boscan…and we haven't done much of anything since that first night in Bosco and…" It came out in a rush and she hadn't organized her thoughts or even sorted out exactly how to ask what she wanted to ask and ended up blushing and a little flustered, how did you ask your boyfriend if he was sexually frustrated?! Given what had happened with Cana…even with Zen sleeping with her…it was a worry Lucy had and she didn't know how to put it into words.

Kaleb pressed his lips together so he didn't laugh…his heart warming a bit at her concern over this, she was trying, and he knew it and she'd made big talk in Bosco about them sleeping together before they went back to school but everything that had happened had sort of dampened everything for everyone so nothing had happened…he had a feeling she'd wanted to the night of the party…had planned to…but then Cana's fiasco had occurred.

"I take care of myself fine Lucy, I'm well trained in that." He said simply, his smile amused but gentle. Lucy frowned

"What does that mean?" She demanded and Kaleb raised a brow.

"You sure you want to know?" He tilted his head, platinum hair falling forward over a shoulder and Lucy wasn't sure what really…it could mean but if it meant he was going somewhere and seeing some other girl…

"You're my boyfriend Kaleb…of course I do." Lucy responded and Kaleb nodded, given the whole thing with Cana he wasn't surprised, Farron had warned him Lucy had been uncomfortable with the idea of him being with someone else just for pleasure and he hadn't been…but that didn't mean he didn't seek pleasure…he was a young Boscan man.

"I take care of that myself Lucy…meaning…I pleasure myself." Kaleb responded, no shame, no shyness, zero embarrassment, he was Boscan, as a people the entire subject of sex and physical pleasures was open and judgment just…wasn't tolerated in his country. Lucy stared at him, blushing so much her hands went to her face because she felt her cheeks get hot.

Kaleb smirked "You want to see how I do it? Then you won't worry anymore?" He offered and Lucys mouth fell open, she couldn't even speak…but her blood had just got as hot as her face, and the idea…of watching Kaleb enjoy himself…handle his own body…excited her way way more than she could have imagined it would…masturbation was a hush thing, a private thing…something you didn't talk about…something you didn't admit to…yet here her boyfriend was…smirking at her with zero shame on his face, nothing but heat and amusement in his lavender eyes…offering to…do it right in front of her…

"I…you…" She couldn't find words…her body sure wanted to see it…a part of her she didn't even know existed about jumped up to beg for it.

Kaleb seemed to register permission and a request Lucy just was unable to manage, the man getting to his feet, looking around the room for a moment and then locking the doors…the last thing his flabbergasted but obviously turned on girlfriend needed was someone walking in while he did this…he himself? Wouldn't care, it wouldn't embarrass or bother him, but Lucy getting upset WOULD bother him, so, locked doors, and he leaned to his computer, opening a music program while his other hand started tugging his shirt free of his pants.

Lucy just…stared…unable to do anything…her brain had cut all ties with her vocal chords it seemed…

Music started playing and Kaleb turned to her "This is going to be easy with you here in front of me…usually I have to keep my eyes closed…get you focused in my head…" he said, his hand sliding up under his shirt, pushing the soft gray fabric up, uncovering tanned skin stretched over cut abs as those heated pale eyes stayed on her. Lucy's eyes left his though…following his hands as they moved, unable to look away…not wanting to… the shirt fell while Kalebs other hand went between his legs, starting to rub over himself on the denim.

Her breath caught as muscle tightened, she heard his breath catch..watched him lick his lips and then her eyes were back on his hands as one slid across his chest and the other kept going, moving between his legs, his hips slowly moved and she saw him growing hard under the denim of his jeans, eyes flicking up to catch when white teeth gripped his lower lip and a smooth deep sound came from him that had her wriggling a bit where she sat.

Kaleb kept his eyes on Lucy…he'd been right…with her there this was easy…especially watching the effect it was having on her, it made him work more…he usually tried to be quiet but not now and when he undid his jeans and removed himself from the fabric keeping his length contained Lucy groaned and he shuddered at the sound, his hand stroking along his length, body moving so he was thrusting into his hand until Lucy sort of reached for him but let her hand fall, her fingers at her lips, eyes wide and he took the hint, coming to the bed and putting a knee up on the mattress beside her before he continued.

He could go a while…he had endurance born of practice and experience, but a shaky hand reached out, slid along his abs, then her other hand was joining his on his erection and that easy restraint was sorely tested. A throaty moan escaped him "Fuck…Lucy…touch me…" me managed and she did, eagerly, following what she saw him doing and doing similar, her hand was softer than his…her fingers smaller but her grip sure wasn't lacking and her other hand exploring his skin just added so much more than he could do himself until she took both hands and held his hips, stopping him, looking up at him with more desire and more need in her golden eyes than he'd ever seen before.

"I want you…" She managed, her hands moving to her shirt, and Kalebs eyes widened when he realized what she meant.

"Now?" He asked, and could have kicked himself because…obviously…but on a freezing cold day when she'd been so stressed…

"Now." Lucy said firmly and was out of her clothes faster than he could even reach into his nightstand…grabbing out a condom because…Laxus really would murder him if he wasn't mindful of that…he smiled when her hands were impatiently yanking his jeans down as he was trying to get the condom in place, loving her enthusiasm…sharing it…

He was climbing over her soon enough, kissing her…hands sliding over that silky pale skin, following her generous curves until one slid between her legs…he was impressed…her eagerness was real…she was soaking…heated…already breathing hard but he slid a finger into her…careful, mouth on her breast, knowing those were sensitive…while he worked to relax her…get her core to ease up, he wasn't a small man…and he felt her maiden head…pushed at it with his finger, he'd worked at it before back in Bosco when they had played in the garden and was glad he had…because it did give, enough he knew when he could move and lift her legs wider apart. He smiled down at her, she was breathing hard, wanting him as much as he wanted her…

"I'm going to make this as easy on you as possible…it may hurt…that's normal…it won't keep hurting though…I'll be sure…" he soothed what worry he saw in her wide eyes and she tugged at him, nails biting into his ass and he hissed, laughing a bit when she growled at him.

"I want you…" she said firmly and Kaleb gave himself to her…pushing in a little, keeping his weight mostly on his arms, watching her and smiling when she wrapped her legs around him, resting his forehead against hers as he pushed in until he was fully seated inside of her, panting himself because she was vice like on him but still, heated…wet…and her legs tightened after her first shudder and he moved and watched her arch with his first thrust…from there…everything pent up in Lucy…the lust she'd had no real idea what to do with…the need…the pure carnal side of the woman took hold and Kaleb vaguely wondered why the hell Laxus had ever worried about her…Gods help him she wasn't just keeping up with him…she was so active…experimenting as they went with touching him, kissing, biting…licking…even eagerly pushing him, strong enough to get him to roll to his back and he came from her when they changed position but she was on him in an instant, riding him like she'd done it before…taking him deeper than he'd expected a virgin would try to and when she came she ripped his control right out of his hands and he went over the edge right with her.

Lucy lay on Kaleb then…panting, sweaty…her limbs felt like jello but she was so so satisfied…so happy with herself and absolutely with Kaleb because while yes…it had hurt…especially when he'd first entered her…he had been right, it hadn't kept hurting and she'd soon been just ravenous to try things…and one thing was now having a parade in her head with streamers and fireworks…she wasn't a virgin anymore…Laxus was going to HAVE to back off of that…and oh sweet Gods did she plan to do this again…and soon…because she had a sexy boyfriend with a great body and she was going to make him very very happy…while enjoying the hell out of herself in the process.

"You feel ok?" Kaleb asked when he'd caught his breath and Lucy moved, wriggling up his body, feeling his spent member slide out of her.

"I feel amazing…so…you pleasure yourself like that huh?" She smirked at him and Kaleb laughed.

"No…no doing it myself never…ever..feels that good, you are amazing…and I really like that you want to try things…that you let me know that." He said and Lucy glowed under that praise, the worry she was awkward…that he hadn't liked her pushing him to his back had been there…knowing he liked it made her feel amazing.

She laid down on him then, playing with the ends of his long platinum hair while he rubbed her back.

"One thing I'll say…we shouldn't do more tonight…you're going to be sore…a hot bath is a good idea, why don't you soak while I order us something for dinner? Something nice…maybe Minstrellan?" He offered and Lucy grinned at him.

"Really?" She blinked and Kaleb nodded, smiling "Kind of celebrate…and we can eat, work on our project…maybe you could spend the night?"

Lucy's eyes widened "I…I'd like that…we won't get in trouble?"

"Not if we're out of the dorm before 10 am when the RA starts monitoring who comes and goes." Kaleb smiled. Lucy grinned at him, kissing him soundly before sliding from the bed…and almost falling…discovering her legs were weak.

Kaleb lunged, grabbing her and pulling her to him…

"Easy…" he said, kissing her shoulder and she laughed.

"My legs…" she snickered and Kaleb smiled, patting her backside.

"Just take it slow…that's not a first time thing…as much as…you just lit up a bunch of your body with pleasure and your nervous system isn't back from the parade all the way yet." He chuckled and Lucy looked at him, raising a brow.

"So…that can happen again?" She asked and Kaleb nodded, moving a little carefully himself to help her get the bath going.

"If the orgasm is good enough…it can." Kaleb said and Lucy grinned at him

"Now I have a goal…make your legs weak." She said wagging her eyebrows at him and Kaleb laughed, kissing her as he held her hand so she could step into the tub.

"You did tonight." He smirked at her, making sure his robe that she liked to wear was there along with a clean towel before he left her to soak and hunted down his phone, got the used condom thrown away, himself cleaned up and into some soft sleep pants and a clean tank top, ordered a lot of Minstrellan food and pressed his lips together when he heard

"Hey! I'm taking a bath! Cobra!"
"I don't give a shit, close the curtain, I need to piss."
"Are you serious?!"
"I don't kid about basic bodily functions, deal with it."
"I'm Naked!"
"And I'm gay and don't care you're naked."
"Kaleb!"
"I don't need his help…I'm dating his brother."
((Gasp followed by delighted squeal))
"You are!? That's amazing! I'm so happy for you! You two looked so good together at the ball!"
"Stop that."
"What?"
"The gleeful cheerleader bullshit…I can't pee, you're scaring my dick."
"EWW! Cobra!"

Kaleb was trying not to laugh…but failed…he meant to save Lucy…and found Farron at the door to the bathroom as he reached his door to the bathroom, the blonde trying so hard not to laugh he could barely walk…like Kaleb.

"God Damnit! I am naked in the bath!" Lucy cried from behind the curtain

"Pretty sure we all know that now, and I'm the deaf guy." Cobra responded, now peeing with no shame.

Farron blinked at Kaleb…who just looked back at his brother, both unsure what to do with their significant others…

"I ordered a lot of Minstrellan food, you guys want some?" Kaleb offered

"Oh fuck, tell me you ordered Alfredo." Cobra said, done now and zipping up his pants.

"I…" Kaleb started just as Kalebs door was pounded on.

"Why the FUCK is my sister screaming about being naked in there Kaleb?!" Laxus shouted

Kalebs eyes flew wide but Lucy leaned her head out the side holding the shower curtain so that was all that was visible.

"NOT your business Laxus! Go back to your own room!" She shouted back

Kaleb pursed his lips, mouthing "I got Alfredo" and Cobra gave him a thumbs up after washing his hands, retreating and dragging Farron with him…not wanting further involvement in the conversation now that Laxus was involved.

"If you don't open this fucking door…" Laxus growled

"Laxus…go the fuck away!" Lucy hissed "Do NOT make me get out of this bath!"

"BATH?! Why are you taking a bath in Kalebs room?!" Laxus pounded on the door and Kaleb opened it, stepping aside and Laxus almost fell into the room, glaring at Kaleb.

"What the fuck is going on Pradesh?" He demanded, eyes widening seeing Lucys clothes on the floor…then…blood on Kalebs bed… his face reddened and he glared murderously at Kaleb.

"What…the fuck…happened…" He growled

"What she promised you would happen in Bosco…she's fine…in the bath soaking." Kaleb replied, crossing his arms over his chest…ready if Laxus took a swing…hoping he wouldn't

"If you lay a finger on my boyfriend I swear I'm jumping on you and beating you to a pulp myself." Lucy said, emerging from the bath wrapped in Kalebs robe, hair wrapped in the towel he'd left and glaring at Laxus with her hands on her hips.

"You…you two had sex…" Laxus said pointing at the bed and Lucy glanced at it…blushing a bit at seeing the blood on Kalebs blue sheets but she was too angry to address that.

"I am 18 Laxus Dryer…a Freshman in college…and if I want to have sex with my boyfriend…I will…I TOLD you I was going to and I don't need your permission or approval…" Lucy said in a dangerous tone.

Laxus turned on Kaleb "You were supposed to tell me."

Lucys eyes widened "WHAT?!" she looked at Kaleb who shook his head, a little panic in his eyes at how bad that sounded.

"No…we agreed I'd tell you when I thought we might…and I told you that before we went to Bosco I thought we were getting there but it was up to Lucy if and when it would happen. I was and still am, fully following her lead." Kaleb said firmly

"Is that some of what the TALK you two had was about?" Lucy demanded, glaring at Laxus

"I…I just wanted a heads up so…so…" Laxus stammered

"So you could try to interfere!" Lucy accused

"NO! Just so I could…mentally get my head around the idea of my little sister not…not being a little girl anymore." Laxus managed and Lucy hissed.
"Laxus Dreyer I haven't been a little girl in YEARS…how dare you try to take that much control over me…and…and get that involved in my relationship with Kaleb!" Lucy growled

Her brown eyes hit Kaleb next "You should have told me."

"What we talked about? I promised I wouldn't." Kaleb countered and Lucy glared at Laxus again.

"You made him promise not to tell me…" She hissed and Laxus pushed a hand through his hair.

"Yeah…Lucy…we talked about all of this…" Laxus said frowning…really unhappy with how this was going.

"Yes…and I still get to be mad about you banging on the door, barging in here and acting like Kaleb and I did something wrong. What we do together is between us Laxus…I want privacy…I want to enjoy being with Kaleb without you hovering…I want him to enjoy being with me without you looking over his shoulder…STOP meddling! I love you, but stop!" Lucy said in frustration and Laxus looked even worse at how upset she was…he could handle her anger better than the hurt and unhappy look she had now.

"I'm sorry Lucy…" He finally said and Lucy crossed the room, hugging him…then punching him hard in the arm

"Ow!...shit…" Laxus hissed

"You deserved it…" Lucy said firmly.

Laxus sighed "Yeah…I guess I did…" he said rubbing his arm.

"Now get…go back to Kagura…I know she's here I saw her name on the sign in sheet." Lucy said firmly.

Laxus sighed…and looked at Kaleb "Condoms.." he said and then yelped when Lucy kicked him hard in the ass. "OUT!" She said and Laxus hurried from the room, rubbing his ass, Lucy slamming the door behind him and turning back to Kaleb.

"I'm sorry…" she said and Kaleb was shaking his head, going to her and pulling her into his arms.

"Your brother loves you." He said and Lucy huffed.

"Fuck him…I'm sorry about your sheets…." She said and Kaleb laughed.

"I'll get new ones…I have a spare set anyway. Should probably change the bed so everyone doesn't see it…Cobra and Farron will come in here when the food arrives." he said and Lucy left his arms, immediately stripping the bed and heading for the washer.

Kaleb chuckled, pulling his spare set of sheets out and the couple remade the bed, Kaleb giving Lucy one of his shirts to wear to sleep in and she smiled when he suggested she should probably keep some things in his room going forward…so when she slept over in the future she had things to change into.

The food came soon after, and they ate with Cobra and Farron…Lucy beaming and making Cobra hiss at her a couple of times when Farron leaned over to kiss the man once and again when Cobra held a fork out for Farron to try his fettuccine and she cooed at the scene. Then Farron and Cobra retreated to Farrons room, and Lucy and Kaleb curled up to get more work done on their project…Lucy very happy about crawling into Kalebs bed with him, curling up in his arms and sound asleep within moments of him turning the light off.
