Christian sat on the very edge of his large bed, his whole boy shaking out of nerves. He had sent a note with one of the younger students to give to Aidan earlier with directions to his dorm and asking him to meet him here for a little talk. It had been awhile since the last time they had spoken, several weeks actually. Every time he would see the other in the halls or outside of school he would do a little duck and cover to avoid him, but Chris was tired of avoiding him. They had made plans to make music together despite whatever their relationship status might be. And he had had too much time to think things through. He knew what he wanted from him.
He had given Brooke to Adia to watch several hours earlier, figuring that he would either be spending the night with a sleeping partner or alone to suffocate himself with his pillow. And then went over obsessive with cleaning, which he was starting to regret now since he had nothing left to do to occupy the time while he waited. Even his daughters stuffed animals in her crib were organized according to height, color, and species.
He glanced up at the clock, biting his nails just to have something to do with his hands. It was already well past the time he had asked Aidan to meet him here. He wasn’t going to show. Chris couldn’t blame him, not with the way he had been acting lately.

Aidan was going to show up. He just never knew how to make it on time. No matter how hard he tried he'd be always late. Especially when he wanted to look good. And today he wanted to look perfect. And since he'd been sort of neglecting himself for the past few days, not feeling like taking care of his look there was a lot to do. And that's because Aidan had been miserable for the past few weeks. He was trying to keep the straight face, not to show anything. He knew Christian was avoiding him. He'd seen him hide a few times. It didn't make him feel better and with this gloomy mood, lack of attention and heavy heart he ended up growing beard, wearing the same clothes and barely sleeping, which gave him dark circles around his eyes.
But today he got the note from Christian and whatever the other decided to tell him the misery would finally end. It would go one way or another. Maybe they could at least be friends and write some music together. Aidan really wanted that. But whatever was decided he couldn't show up in this state. That's why he ended up taking a long shower, shaving, cutting his hair a little and even spending some of his savings on perfumes. He needed to look descent so he chose black jeans, a green shirt with a matching vest and a scarf.
the directions to Christian's dorm were rather clear. Especially that it wasn't far from Aidan's. He knocked on the tentatively then waited...

Christian was starting to get worried that Aidan's offer had long since expired as each minute that ticked by and he didn't show. It made him sick to his stomach, he ha spent so much time thinking about himself and none at all at how the other must have been feeling. He fell on his back across his bed with his hands over his eyes to will the tears to stop, whining loudly.
That is, until there came the long awaited knock on the door. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly bounded off the bed, tripping over a baby rattle that he had missed on his way to the door. "Damn it.." He hissed, wrenching open the door. He didn't even take the time to look the other person over but grabbed him by the wrist, pulled him inside, shoved his back against the door, and pressed a long hard kiss to his lips. It could have been the pizza boy for all he knew.

Aidan expected at lot but not that. At first he was so surprised he tripped over nothing, he was just clumsy, and yelped when he was slammed against the wall and was attacked by those full lips. He was clawing at Christian's shirt for a second but then finally he losened up and wrapped his arms around the other man's waist pulling him close and returning the kiss. "Hello to you too" He murmured sucking gently on Christian's bottom lip. If he was welocmed like that he'd at least enjoy it a little before hearing what was inevitable. He was very sure it would be their last kiss so why not making it memorable

"Hi.." Christian whispered, peaking his eyes open to take in the man that he was currently pressed against. Well at least he had grabbed the right person in all that haste, but now that he was here he was at a loss of what to do next. Giving him one last barely noticeable kiss, he stepped backwards and took both of his hands to lead him over to the bed to sit down, mostly to stop his knees from buckling beneath him out of nerves.

Aidan followed him meekly licking his lips to savor the taste. He sat down on the bed next to Christian folding his hands neatly in his lap and smiled softly. "so...how are you?" He asked. Lame but it was a start and maybe it would help them start some kind of a conversation. Sitting here and staring at each other would be a torture.

Christian stayed silent for what seemed like hours which was only a few well drawn out minutes. The words wouldn't come to him and he mentally slapped himself for not getting himself better prepared during that time that he had been sitting here waiting in anticipation. "I'm..I'm.." He shrugged. Aidan was all nice and smiling, it didn't make any sense. He should be yelling at him right about now for avoiding him for so long. "I know what I want.." He finally managed, getting straight to the point.

Aidan was yelling and screaming at him inwardly. Actually that's what he'd been doing for those past weeks. Yelling and screaming into his pillow, clawing at it or leaving it damp from silent tears. But outside he was calm. That's what he was like. Not showing his emotions. So he pulled on a fake smile waiting patiently for Christian's answer. And then it came. Partially at least. "And what is it?"

Christian opened his mouth to answer, shut it, then opened it again. He might as well get this over with as quick as he could instead of drawing it out only to feel worse in the end when Aidan left laughing at him. "I want to try..exclusively" He answered, cringing at that word. That was the tough part, he never had to be true to any one person before. He wasn't sure if he could.

Aidan nodded automatically but then he understood what the other had just said and frose letting the words sing in. He blinked a few times then nodded again. Very slowly. "you...really mean that?" He asked quietly still not believing. "You really want to try? With me?" no, he definitely mus have heard wrong.

Christian nodded in return, suddenly becoming fascinated with his shoe laces. "Yeah..I want to try..with you.." He mumbled barely audible. It sounded so strange coming from him that even he took it to be a mistake at first. "I've been thinking..a lot..and you said try, right? We could give it a trail run an if it doesn't work we can be friends?" He asked hopefully but then frowned. Waiting for the first laugh to escape the others lips.

Aidan changed his neat but uncomfortable position turning to face Chris and hoisting one knee onto the bed. "Try. That's all I want and that's all I can offer" He said and chuckled soflty. "After all we're both equally experienced in relationships and don't know what we're getting ourselves into so I guess trying is the best option. And if it doesn't work we'll be friends" He nodded still not believing what he heard. He wanted to explode, jump on Christian and covered his face with kisses but managed to stay calm

Christian reached over to cover Aidan's mouth with his hand. At the moment he would much rather prefer being attacked with kisses than hearing how inexperienced they both were in real relationships. "Is there an off switch to you, do you know?" He asked, laughing weakly. Did Christian Tait really have a boyfriend now? So what happened next?

Aidan shook head laughing. "I don't know" He admitted honestly. "But you could look for it if you want" he said spreading his arms open. He couldn't believe it either. He'd need some time to get used to this thought. Aidan Kinney having a boyfriend. Aidan Kinney having someone. That ws so unreal. Aidan Kinney belonged to someone. Even if just for a while. He couldn't believe Christian really wanted him

Christian accepted Aidan's open invitation and tackled him across the bed, full pouty lips searching for that secret spot that would either turn him on or off. It was what he knew how to do. Maybe if he did this often enough it would keep him from straying to other people like he feared he might do. "Tell me if I'm getting warmer.." He whispered huskily, sucking his earlobe in between his teeth.
