river: fine. i’ll go.

river: just so you know, im pretty damn used to getting what i want 😘🤓💅🏻

SLATER: pick you up or meet up?

SLATER: i also know how to not back down babe

his fingertips brushed along his chin as he grinned and chuckled lightly. “ i’m not being dramatic. i’m stating facts - getting something out of the way. making sure. “ he told him, eyeing him up and down to see if he could gather anything by the way his body spoke. it’s not like dom saw this as an opportunity - except he really did. “ you finally noticed ? “ dom asked, a grin to his face as he was playing with his words. “ you look good too. better than i last remembered. “

river cuddled farther into slater’s side and groaned softly before rolling away from him, “sorry, babe, you should have just pushed me off,” he laughed. truthfully, he would have loved to stayed as close to his boyfriend as he possibly could, but he definitely did not want to seem clingy. he tuned onto his side and looked at slater with a soft smile, “nah, i wouldn’t ditch you. you’d just have to kick me out,” he winked. “i like the after sex cuddles way too much.” it was sort of weird how easy being with slater felt to river. he hadn’t let himself develop feelings for someone in such a long time, but it felt good. he felt a rush anytime slater touched him and he got butterflies when he looked at him. river knew it was silly, but he was excited to finally let someone break down the walls he had built. he felt a warmth spread through his body at the sweet kiss, “good. i don’t really like sleeping alone anymore.”

slater slightly frowned once he moved away, already missing the warmth that the blonde provided him. “ i wouldn’t kick you out, you know that. the sex is too good for me to let you go after only just one round. “ he knew that he shouldn’t let this boy have such a impact on him, but he couldn’t help but fall for river despite his better judgement and brain telling him not to. he tried keeping his distance for a bit with the excuse for working, but slater felt the crave to just have river near him. he paused at the comment, taking in the words that felt strange, but was also pleasuring to him. he snapped out of his thoughts, finally making his way into the bathroom to do his business before returning to the bedroom to start removing his clothes, leaving himself in his boxer briefs. “ fuck you’re adorable, and i really want to kiss you right now. “ slater crawled back into bed, pulling river on top of him to start placing small kisses on his neck.

river: hmm i do like dinner. not so sure about the 'some shit' bit tho ;)

river: if you want me to go with you on ur lil date then we are :D

SLATER: usually involve hitting up a party and hooking up with someone

GIO: hell yea

GIO: come over rn

SLATER: on my way

SLATER: i'll stop by the store and grab the shit to make it

   ‘ a gentleman? sure you are. ‘ eden says, eyes rolling. she’s not exactly convinced. still, it’s not like she has anything better to do than humour him. ‘ you know, when you’ve gotta start a sentence by clarifying you’re not a creep, it’s never a good sign, ‘ she teases, surprisingly not that creeped out by it. eden’s used to being watched ; it’s not like it’s something new. ‘ oh, i know how to have fun when i want to, ‘ she says, smirking up at him. ‘ whether or not you get to join in on the fun, well, that’s still up for debate. ‘ 

“ well i can be a gentleman if i want to. luckily today i’m feeling nice. “ he joked, rolling his eyes playfully at the comment made. “ damn, seems like i need to up my game a bit huh ? “ sure the boy found her attractive and would like to take her home, but he found himself oddly enjoying the back and forth between the two of them. something about her just had slater hooked. “ well in that case, what can i do to deserve to join you in that fun ? “

GIO: well now i'm looking up how to make almond milk :/

river: aww that’s actually v sweet 🥰

river: what confession?? 😘

river: a group date?? what does that even entail? who’s going?

river: i’ll say yes if i get to hold your hand in public 😩🥺

SLATER: dinner and some shit. i'm usually five wheeling as i don't usually take a date with me
