Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā althoughĀ jaeshināsĀ wordsĀ wereĀ casual,Ā aceĀ stillĀ managedĀ toĀ catchĀ theĀ silentĀ promiseĀ thatĀ lingeredĀ behindĀ themĀ āĀ thatĀ perhapsĀ jaeshinĀ wouldnātĀ stay,Ā butĀ heĀ wouldĀ come,Ā andĀ itĀ wasĀ allĀ heĀ neededĀ forĀ now.Ā truthĀ beĀ told,Ā theĀ mechanicĀ wouldĀ beĀ satisfiedĀ toĀ settleĀ forĀ havingĀ thoseĀ flirtyĀ littleĀ conversationsĀ back,Ā evenĀ ifĀ theyĀ wouldĀ leadĀ nowhere,Ā asĀ longĀ asĀ heĀ couldĀ maintainĀ anyĀ sortĀ ofĀ contactĀ withĀ theĀ other.Ā thankfully,Ā basedĀ onĀ theĀ wayĀ theĀ youngerĀ manĀ actedĀ aroundĀ himĀ now,Ā seeminglyĀ remorsefulĀ aboutĀ allĀ theĀ runningĀ andĀ ignoring,Ā aceĀ wasĀ confidentĀ theyĀ couldĀ continueĀ whateverĀ thisĀ wasĀ ā¦Ā inĀ oneĀ wayĀ orĀ anotherĀ āĀ however,Ā heĀ didĀ needĀ aĀ phoneĀ number.Ā aceĀ wasĀ shockedĀ atĀ himselfĀ howĀ farĀ theyādĀ gottenĀ withoutĀ anyĀ communicationĀ throughĀ socialĀ mediaĀ andĀ texts,Ā andĀ asĀ muchĀ asĀ heĀ likedĀ havingĀ livedĀ inĀ theĀ oldĀ agesĀ forĀ aĀ bit,Ā whereĀ phonesĀ hadnātĀ existedĀ yet,Ā itĀ wasĀ justĀ INCONVENIENT.Ā perfectĀ timing,Ā aceĀ thought,Ā asĀ jaeshinĀ broughtĀ upĀ theĀ ideaĀ ofĀ givingĀ himĀ hisĀ numberĀ andĀ thereĀ wasĀ noĀ wayĀ inĀ hellĀ heādĀ passĀ upĀ theĀ opportunity.Ā āĀ noĀ needĀ toĀ leaveĀ itĀ overnight.Ā iĀ canĀ startĀ withĀ yourĀ carĀ immediately,Ā soĀ āĀ āĀ heĀ smiledĀ sheepishly,Ā offeringĀ thatĀ familiarĀ grinĀ thatĀ wasĀ aĀ WARNINGĀ forĀ whateverĀ thatĀ wasĀ aboutĀ toĀ come.Ā Ā āĀ numberĀ soundsĀ good.Ā myĀ phoneĀ isĀ lonelyĀ withoutĀ yourĀ digits.Ā āĀ chuckling,Ā heĀ drewĀ inĀ evenĀ closer,Ā watchingĀ jaeshināsĀ faceĀ carefullyĀ toĀ gaugeĀ everyĀ reaction.Ā heĀ wasnātĀ surprisedĀ toĀ catchĀ aĀ glimpseĀ ofĀ theĀ sameĀ roseateĀ tintĀ embellishingĀ hisĀ cheeksĀ andĀ evenĀ relishedĀ inĀ theĀ factĀ thatĀ heĀ couldĀ stillĀ shockĀ him,Ā evenĀ afterĀ establishingĀ thatĀ aceĀ wasĀ definitelyĀ theĀ boldĀ &Ā unapologeticĀ type.Ā thoughĀ thereĀ wasĀ noĀ denyingĀ thatĀ jaeĀ didnātĀ fallĀ behind;Ā itĀ wasĀ clearĀ inĀ theĀ wayĀ heĀ curledĀ hisĀ fingersĀ intoĀ hisĀ overallsĀ toĀ bringĀ himĀ evenĀ closerĀ andĀ aceĀ justĀ continuedĀ drinkingĀ inĀ everyĀ smirkĀ thatādĀ subconsciouslyĀ danceĀ onĀ hisĀ lips,Ā everyĀ curlĀ ofĀ themĀ desperatelyĀ tryingĀ toĀ hideĀ theĀ amusement,Ā everyĀ gorgeousĀ and,Ā truthfully,Ā pants-droppingĀ lookĀ heādĀ sendĀ himĀ justĀ toĀ challengeĀ theĀ elder.Ā itĀ wasĀ noĀ wonderĀ whyĀ aceĀ keptĀ cravingĀ toĀ comeĀ back;Ā itĀ wasĀ alwaysĀ reallyĀ fuckingĀ rewarding.Ā theĀ memoriesĀ fromĀ theirĀ lastĀ nightĀ togetherĀ cameĀ rushingĀ backĀ (Ā heādĀ alreadyĀ replayedĀ itĀ likeĀ aĀ thousandĀ timesĀ ),Ā whichĀ onlyĀ urgedĀ aceĀ toĀ throwĀ hisĀ headĀ backĀ aĀ little,Ā beamingĀ widelyĀ withĀ aĀ smallĀ scoffĀ escapingĀ hisĀ throatĀ asĀ heĀ shotĀ himĀ aĀ lookĀ fromĀ underĀ hisĀ lashes.Ā theyĀ wereĀ stillĀ pressedĀ together,Ā withĀ aceāsĀ legsĀ straddlingĀ jaeāsĀ andĀ āĀ well,Ā lookĀ atĀ that:Ā isnātĀ theĀ nightĀ repeatingĀ itselfĀ now?Ā āĀ please,Ā āĀ heĀ started,Ā mockingĀ jaeshinĀ fromĀ earlierĀ asĀ heĀ nowĀ leanedĀ in,Ā bringingĀ hisĀ handĀ upĀ toĀ cupĀ theĀ youngerĀ manāsĀ neck,Ā thumbingĀ alongĀ theĀ jawline,Ā Ā āĀ youĀ giveĀ meĀ noĀ credit.Ā youĀ thinkĀ iādĀ doĀ thisĀ toĀ anyĀ otherĀ customer?Ā āĀ withĀ that,Ā heĀ didnātĀ evenĀ giveĀ theĀ otherĀ aĀ chanceĀ toĀ replyĀ asĀ aceĀ crashedĀ theirĀ lipsĀ together,Ā paintingĀ theĀ manāsĀ neckĀ withĀ someĀ grease.Ā hey,Ā Ā atĀ leastĀ heĀ wasnātĀ gettingĀ itĀ onĀ hisĀ clothes.
At Aceās confirmation that it wouldnāt take that long, he nodded, barely paying attention to the otherās rambling - or else he would have recognised that grin -Ā before he snapped his head up.Ā āYour phone is lonelyĀ without my digits?ā He scoffed, rolling his eyes.Ā āThought a master flirt like you could at least come up with something less cheesy. You donāt ask for numbers often?ā He asked, curious about whether he ever got the numbers of those people heād leave the bar with, or if he had well and truly mastered the art of one night stands. Still, with Ace almost in his lap as they leaned heavily against the car, Jaeshinās mind was far from the otherās previous hook-ups, far too focused on the way his eyebrow piercing glinted with every movement, how hotĀ he looked with that bandana pushing all his hair up.Ā āYou know, if you were to give me that family discount and they seeĀ me giving you my number, thatās gonna look mightyĀ suspicious,ā he said softly, an amused smirk flitting over his face. It was all too easy to remember the last time theyād been in this position, although instead of the amber light from his kitchen washing over his features, it was the warm sunlight, the kind that had danced across his face early in the morning when theyād woken up, the bright light coming second only to his bright smile at breakfast.Ā He gulped quietly as Aceās hand cupped his neck, eyes turning dark as he stayed still, curious as to how far the other would take it. His hooded eyes were trained on his every move, barely conscious of the other people in the store as his own hand slid from where it was hooked into the top of his overalls to grip his hip, attempting to give him some balance in the precarious position they were in. āWell --ā he began, but was instantly cut off by Aceās lips on his, his eyes growing wide in surprise as he momentarily forgot to kiss him back. He should have known, he thought, eyes fluttering shut as he relaxed into the kiss, should have known that he wouldnāt be able to fluster Ace like that, that of courseĀ the older would be able to one-up him in a competition of this nature, but he found he couldnāt really care with Aceās lips on his and his warm body in his lap. It wasnāt like the kiss from the previous week - that one had been heated, with blood pumping and a roaring in his ears, but this one was softer, sweeter, lazier. If that kiss was like summer, then this kiss was like autumn, with golden leaves crunching against the floor and a certain youthfulness to the air, warm scarves wrapped around rosy cheeks and red noses and lazy dates in coffee shops. Jaeshin hadnāt realised heād been needing this - cravingĀ this - but with his brain short circuiting and his heart going into overdrive, he couldnāt fathom trying to let this go again, trying to stay out of his magnetic field. Like a moth to a flame, he thought, humming lightly as he deepened the kiss languidly, hands resting on the small of Aceās back. He was aware they were in public, though, and whilst he had no doubt that the other had no qualms with a heated makeout session in the public eye, heĀ wasnāt one for that, so he slowly pulled away, giving him one final peck on the lips.Ā āTell you what. Iāll strike you a deal,ā he whispered against his lips, opening his eyes and raising an eyebrow.Ā He smirked slightly as he leaned back, settling more comfortably against the car and shuffling Ace to stand between his spread legs instead, his body beginning to ache from holding them up against it for so long. āI leave my credit card and keys here, and Iāll be at the dog park nearby for the next two hours. Give me that discount, drive out to meet me, and weāll see about that number. Sound good?ā
