His bad luck in life begins with his mother's death from opioids. Things are supposed to improve when he's adopted by a wealthy and important family, right? Wrong. Despite the money and a relatively secure home, Guy grows up alone, neglected, and only there because they needed an heir and the wife was infertile. He never truly cared, not in front of them at least. There comes a point in his life where going out for nights out is less complicated than staying home with his parents, even if those nights out usually end with him wallowing alone in some hotel room. In the tabloids, people have a certain image of him. He knows how he should always look leaving hotels looking disheveled, eyes glazed, seen in nightclubs. In real life, he's just a guy enjoying a party, remaining a virgin at the end of the night and crying because alcohol makes him emotional. He's more pathetic than the fantasy of the tabloids or his parents. Life should continue like this, but it doesn't. Being part of a wealthy and important family makes him a target. After he's attacked one night and acts in self-defense, his parents hire a bodyguard for him. Guy understands the logic behind it, but that doesn't mean he likes it. Or that it makes things easier. The man, Jasper, seems amused by his attitude until he realizes the depth of just how pathetic and lonely Guy truly is.

Jasper was raised to one day inherit his parents' business, a personal security company. Gradually, he becomes one of the best available for hire. And a specific case is given to him: to protect a spoiled heir from a family well-known for its conservative politics. He expects many things, and in a way, Guy Anatole is what he expects. The boy is strangely quiet, but his grimaces are always expressive. It's even funny that he doesn't realize it. He has no close friends, hobbies, or even interesting tastes. But he likes to go out, and every time Jasper rigorously accompanies him. Private parties, seedy bars – Guy doesn't seem to have preferences, as long as there's alcohol. Having read the tabloids and even heard the boy's own parents talk about him, he expects how these nights will end: outside a door, giving his charge privacy to him have sex with someone. But no. Instead, when he closes the door every night, it's just the sound of light sniffs and some cliché romantic comedy plot. Before Jasper realizes it, he's already falling in love.

The first time they meet, Guy observes the clearly older man, with weapons concealed on his body, and frowns. He carefully hides his thoughts about how much he doesn't want this, knowing he has no choice. Jasper should be boring. He acts professionally, almost rigorously, and doesn't seem to like Guy. He should just do his job and that's it. Guy knows he means nothing to the man in any existing sense, and he doesn't care about that.

But Jasper is kind to him, his eyes softening after witnessing for the first time an interaction between Guy and his parents, noticing his clenched fists and moist eyes. He is attentive, making sure of things that shouldn't be part of the job, like the time Guy prepares for bed and the man, seemingly surprised at himself, strokes his curls. He has an amused smile whenever Guy shows some personality, something beyond the shell he usually displays. No matter how strong or protective Jasper may be, he can't fight Guy's inner demons. Like the one who enjoys the taste and effect of alcohol. The one who blames himself for killing a man in self-defense, precisely the reason he has a bodyguard.

The first time he gets drunk in front of Jasper, he hugs the man and doesn't let go, basically dragging him to a hotel room where Jasper sits him on his lap and comforts him, unaware of what's happening. He pretends it didn't happen the next morning. Jasper doesn't bring it up either. It should be like that; his parents get tired of paying for this company when they realize there's no active threat to Guy, and Jasper abandons him. Simple. He hates how attached to the man he becomes, little by little. Jasper takes a deep breath every time he sees him dancing with a man on the dance floor at some party, his stomach churning violently. He hates himself for being relieved to realize Guy isn't interested in either of them, because every night he comes home alone and cries. He hates himself, not so much, because he likes the way Guy seeks him out, and no one else, for comfort. He loves the feeling of Guy's curls in his hand, thighs pressed against his, arms around his neck, eyes closed and deep breathing. It's beautiful. It's completely unprofessional and clearly affecting his job, because when someone dares to put something in Guy's drink, Jasper reacts too late.

One moment he's watching his boy from among all the people, and the next, he's gone.

Despite his worst thoughts, fears, and nightmares, Jasper finds him hours later in the establishment's bathroom, alone and unconscious. There are no signs othat anyone else touched him, and that calms Jasper. He cuddles Guy in his arms and leaves through the back door. Taking him to his parents' house would cause stress and complications. A hotel seems uncomfortable and dangerous for the situation. Jasper takes him to his own house. He swallows his saliva and desire as he changes Guy's sweaty clothes for a more comfortable pair. He lays him on his bed and sits in an armchair to watch. He will never take his eyes off this boy again. Right there, he begins a hunt for the person who tried to do something to Guy, tracking the security cameras and then the man himself when he sees him in the footage. The next morning, when Guy wakes up, Jasper tells him what happened, and Guy fills in the missing details. He also vents about why Jasper was hired. About the man he killed trying to survive.

If he knew about Jasper's psychotic tendencies, perhaps he would perceive the pride, but he only notices the affection.

Guy kisses him. And Jasper doesn't push him away, holding his face carefully and deepening the kiss until Guy is pinned to the bed, his hands gripping Jasper's shirt. He doesn't do more than that, and Guy buries his face in his neck and cries.

Jasper leaves him there to rest for the afternoon and promises to return. Then he goes out to hunt for real. Finds the man who drugged Guy is easy. Stuffing a chloroform-soaked cloth into his mouth and nose is too. Normally Jasper would prefer a clean job, or at least a quick one. Injections or a concealed shot. But he wants the man to die slowly, and it's fun to stab him to death. He steals his belongings. He makes it look like an everyday fatality, a drug addict attacking a man and robbing him before killing him. He returns home at night, hoping Guy will be asleep to get rid of the blood. He isn't. And the revelation of what happened doesn't please him. Despite trying to leave, Jasper doesn't let him. He asks for a chance. Trapped by his own feelings, Guy grants it.

Jasper goes from bodyguard to boyfriend, and that certainly attracts the attention of the tabloids. And his parents don't like it one bit, but having a queer child attracts more positive public attention to the family, and that's the only reason they leave him alone.

Guy moves in with Jasper, giving up late nights and attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Jasper takes over the reins of the company. They are both proud of each other.

Plot of the first time.

When Jasper arrives home, Guy is already waiting for him in the living room. He sees the blood. His expression makes obvious the fear and caution he feels. He recoils against the sofa.

— What did you do?

— He tried to force you, Guy.

— What did you do, Jasper?

— I killed him, of course.

— I didn't asked for that.

— You didn't need to. I wanted. I hella enjoy it.

— Why?

— You know why. I would to it again, and you also know that.

— But... why?

— To fucking protect you? Why are you surprised? It's my job to do that.

— It was your job kissing me then?

Would Jasper bring up his work as a reason to protect Guy, and would Guy shut down because that morning they were kissing and Guy thought, he really thought, that they would be more than that, and now Jasper throws in his face how wrong that is. When he tries to leave, Jasper stops him.

— I will always protect you, job or not. And I will love you, desire you, regardless of that too.

Jasper would lift him into the air, careful to kiss him, aware of how sensitive he might be after the other night. Guy wouldn't allow him to act like that, taking control. He would ride Jasper onto his bed.
