*nikolai lantsov / korezni !
there is no formal reason to even be here , it usually suffices to request the guards’ uniforms or dress code through an address made , mostly passed on by genya , and leave it at that . though standard procedure has quickly become something the king has cast aside when it came to his relationship with his bodyguard , opting for a more unorthodox approach from the design of his standard uniform ( different than everybody else’s ) to most other things - mostly as a convenient way to pursue their relationship and see barry as often as he could apart from the daily hovering next or behind his shoulder , but also because he favours to plead his case . “you do need to , the standard uniform won’t fit the occasion this time .” he hums more than he says it , low rasp as he steps closer to his boyfriend , hands in the others and looking down on him from the standing position , always seeking more proximity since the accident happened , and not being above coaxing it out any moment he could . he likes the suit he chose , something black and clean with fine golden pin-stripes woven into the material . enough to set the american apart from the rest again , but also subtle enough to not upstate the royals in attendance . “ it’s a state function , moi rezku. everyone has to dress up a little - and while i would definitely agree with the sentiment you’d have to put the suit on first for me to get you out of it anyway .” brazen smile , fox’s mischief and affection clearly written over scarred features as blonde eyebrows rise in a mock-shocked reaction . “it’s one evening . i am sure you can make it through being the handsomest person in the room for one evening .”
he’d be lying if he didn’t like the way the king hovered above him for once , hazel eyes with that familiar glint of mischief locking with his stern , ocean gaze. or at least , he tried to be serious , but it was difficult doing so when they were alone & away from prying eyes. such pleasures were rare for the two of them & barry could never deny the king any sort of affection , no matter how frustrated he might be. besides , it’s not like he didn’t need it too & after his ‘ almost dying ‘ episode , any moment they got alone was used to the fullest , enjoying each other as if it might be the last time. mouth opens , ready to complain more about the formal dress code for the upcoming function , but it’s immediately closed shut at his final word , a blush slowly blooming across pale skin. shit ! flustering him was always the king’s goal , the sudden compliment throwing him off for a moment , but barry is quick to gain composure , eyebrow quirking upwards as he tugs the king down to his level by the front of his shirt , shaking his head.
❝ oh shut up. ❞ knowing that his highness would not comply with his command , he decides to take matters into his own hands. lips meld perfectly with his as he slowly melts against his smaller form, eyes fluttering shut & his grip loosens , truly relishing the warmth that was his body against his own. barry is rather touch starved , as is nik & it is easy to lose oneself in the midst of pleasure. that is what barry does , accidentally , body falling back onto the bed , the hand loosely clutching the front of nik’s shirt assists in bringing the king down with him. ❝ oh , shit ! ❞ barry gasps , laughing a little at his blunder , hoping he didn’t catch nik too off - guard. with a winning smile , he gazes up at his lover , maybe a little too happy in the current position they found themselves in. ❝ you’re one smooth operator , nik , ❞ he purrs , still shaking the giggles that left his throat as his hands rested against the small of his back. ❝ if anyone’s the handsome one , it’s you , alright ? everyone’s gonna see us & wonder how their king could choose the weird , freakishly tall american with crazy eyes. ❞
calloused hand reaches up to caress his cheek , gazing at nik for a moment until ocean eyes widen out of nowhere ------ a realization suddenly made apparent & his once calm demeanor slowly switches into a mild panic. ❝ fuck , everyone knows about us now. what if ------ what if your people don’t like me ? what if they hate me ? ❞
