Whatâs better than pickled jalapeĂąo poppers, half a bottle of 1970 vintage bourbon and cheese crackers at 4:00 am in the morning? Virtually, nothingâEvan logic, but honestly, who could blame him? Heâd been lying in bed, tossing and turning in a pathetic attempt to force himself to fall asleep for what felt like hours, until Dem had texted him about their apparent 1 month anniversary which Evan found absolutely and wholly endearingâit put a smile on his face, and it made his skin prickle with heat. Come on; this warranted a celebration in and of itself.Â
Needless to say, he was feeling wholly exhausted abd listless, but that didnât deter him from walking all the way to the second floor to spend the night at his boyfriendâs apartment (again)âcontrary to popular belief, Evan was 100% good times, thank you very much; he could be shockingly unpredictable too which, he supposed, was a good thing, more often than not.Â
The moment that Dem opened the door, he was kissing him hard and quick, with every emotion that stirred beneath his skin; the longing, the passion, the love, the needâgod, the need; he honestly felt like he couldnât sleep in his bed alone anymoreâit just felt too big, too empty. Too wrong; so he was currently buzzing with playful excitement, all smiles and teasing kisses. All of that - and more - came flooding from his mouth in a metaphorical tidal wave of hunger and playfulness; his hands were full, or heâd have definitely been pulling him closer, Â too.
"I missed you so much" was the breath he took upon his lips before they collided again, then again, hungrier and more intensely this time, and it was kinda ridiculous, kinda silly, too -- he had just seen him less than 24 hours ago -- but it was honestly how he felt.
He set the food down on the counter-top with the bottle of bourbon before he stole away to the fridge for more 'drinking essentials', namely, more booze. "Now, I don't want to hear any complains about how my booze's not as good as yours, Caskett" he ventured, scooting the bottle of bourbon he had toward Dem. "Do you have tequila?" he asked, glancing at him.
