JEFF STERLING

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

Nick laughed and buried his face in Jeff’s chest.  “I’d say I can’t believe you just said that, but actually yeah, I can.  I like to think we’re just making it up to teenaged Jeff and Nick,” he winked at his boyfriend.  He looked at Jeff.  “So work in London… does that mean you might have to go there, or to Europe soon, for longer?   Or is this just a good excuse to get away and enjoy Europe and each other?”  Nick sighed softly, a warm smile on his face.  “It sounds incredible. It’s going to be the best time.  But you do know you don’t have to take me far for me to think that.  I just need to be with you Jeff.”  Nick wrapped his arms around his boyfriend’s neck.  “Is there something with our friends, or the bar, or press, or work that is worrying you?”  he asked.   As he settled, resting fully against Jeff, Nick smiled.  “I love you.  I just think great minds think alike.  I fully support this rule by the way.  It sounds really nice.”  His cheeks turned crimson.  

Every time Nick laughed, Jeff felt his heart skip a beat, and this time was no exception. Bending his head, he kissed the top of his boyfriend’s head, wrapping his arms around him as he held him close to his chest. “I only speak the truth, you know. At least I’m honest.” He laughed. “I think so too. Making up for lost time. Whatever it is I don’t want it to stop.” Nick’s question landed, and Jeff shrugged. “I...Don’t know. There have been some whispers about something like that, but nothing solid yet. Right now it’s just a press thing. A fan meet up. That kind of thing.” Jeff didn’t want to think about the possibility of leaving Nick for long periods of time, it made him too sad. “You’re right it is. And I know I don’t babe. But I want to spoil you. I want to give you everything. And to have these experiences with you. I want to make these memories. Everything, with you.” Jeff bent forward, nuzzling into Nick’s neck. “Worrying me? Not really. I think I’m just feeling a little bit of general stress. But, it’s alright. As long as I have you, everything will be.” The blush on Nick’s cheeks brought one of Jeff’s own, and he moved to grab Nick around the waist, guiding him back towards the couch. “I love you too, babe. So much. Everything about you makes me fall more in love with you every day. You’re right though, they do, and I’m glad you agree.” Grinning, Jeff laid Nick back across the couch, climbing on top of him and kissing along his cheeks and jaw. “Tell me what you’re feeling. What you’re thinking. How your day was. What you’re most excited for about London. Tell me everything. All of it.”

askthemercedesjones​:

Jeff! Thanks! I am excited, but not excited about the label wanting me to tour, I told them I will promote it from New York, maybe fly our to LA for a show but thats it. Tell me when you are there and I will be also! Then we can talk about you! And your love life.

I don’t blame you one little bit, touring is great and all but it’s just so much. Plus you just got home! You need time to enjoy it! These days I’m there pretty much every night, but right now Nick and I are actually in London. So, rain check?

[askingjeff]

askthemercedesjones​:

It is official! My album is done! Now I may not be touring but I am so proud of this one! So in celebration if we go out, drinks are on me!

@atfgstarters​

Congrats Mercedes! What an accomplishment! Come on out to The Commons, drinks will be on me! I can’t let you pay when you’re the one with the great news!

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

Nick rolled his eyes playfully and shook his head.  “I guess we’re just both lucky then.”  His cheeks burned red and he swallowed.  “I do.  Because I want that too.”  Nick wrapped his arms around Jeff’s neck, pulling himself on his tip toes so they were closer to the same height.  “I just never wanted to get in the way before.  Or wasn’t sure how much you wanted me around.  Now I know.  And as long as I can make it work, and I’m going to try really hard to make it work, then I’m going to want to be with you,” he explained.  Nick’s eyes grew wide.  “A week… in London?”  He kissed Jeff hard, excitedly.  “That’s a hell yes– in case it wasn’t clear.  I think I know one thing we definitely have to do.”  

Laughing, Jeff mimicked Nick’s motions and rolled his own eyes. “I guess we are then. How lucky for us both. And...” He continued with a wiggle of his eyebrows, “We also get lucky a lot, so that’s, like, double the luck!” The grin that spread across his face was genuine, and he leaned in to rest his head on Nick’s shoulder for a moment, wrapping his arms around Nick’s waist. “You’re right, now you know. I want you around, always. No question, you don’t even have to ask. Wherever I am, I want you to be. Let me know if you need any help making things work, you know I’ll move mountains for you. That’s a fact, you can test it.” Jeff teased. When Nick’s expression changed Jeff couldn’t stifle the laugh that came. “A week in London, baby. You heard me right. Excited, are you?” Jeff asked, kissing Nick once again. “It wasn’t, so thanks for explaining. I’m joking, you know that right? I’m glad you’re so excited. I thought it would be the perfect chance for us to just spend some time. Just us. No friends, no bar, no press or work to worry about. Just us, being us.” Jeff continued, pulling Nick in against his chest, wanting to feel the weight of the other against him. “I do too, that’s funny. It looks like we really are sharing a brain these days. I just couldn’t fathom going to London without you there, by my side, to kiss at the top of the London Eye. In fact, since Times Square, it’s my mission in life to make sure I kiss you at the top of every ferris wheel we see for the rest of our lives. It’s just a rule.”

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

Nick closed his eyes and made a contented noise as Jeff kissed his cheek.  “Do you know how lucky I feel to have you in my life like this?”  He grinned at his boyfriend.  “You want me to go with you?  I’d love to.  I’ve got to make sure I can get things covered at the bar, but I should be able to do so.  When?  And where are we going?”

More than almost anything Jeff loved how tender things were between the two of them now. For years, this type of intimacy and connection had been something he’d thought he could only dream of. Now, it was his reality. “That’s so funny, I was just thinking the same thing. I’m the lucky one, Nick. I mean that.” For a moment, Jeff paused to simply look at Nick, a large cheesy grin on his face. “Do you know how much I just want to make you happy? To be with you? To give you everything?” He asked. Nodding, Jeff gave Nick’s hand a squeeze. “Of course I do! I don’t want to be away from you at all, not ever, but especially not now. I was just worried you wouldn’t want to come, or that you wouldn’t be able to take off.” Jeff’s grin only grew wider as he talked, getting more excited about the fact that Nick was keen on coming with him. “We would leave Friday afternoon, at about 1:00. Technically work-related stuff will be wrapped by that following Tuesday, but...I thought we could come back Saturday morning? Just to have a few days to vacation, and relax together. Especially since we’re going to London.” Jeff gave an excited smile, eager to see Nick’s reaction to his news.

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

Nick turned and looked at Jeff.  He took Jeff’s hand in is and gave it a squeeze.  “When it comes to you, always.”  He tilted his head at the sigh and the way Jeff had shaken his head.  “Is everything okay?”

When Nick laced his fingers through Jeff’s, Jeff couldn’t help but to smile. Just being in Nick’s presence was enough to make him feel happier and more at peace than he ever had been. “You, babe, are too sweet to me.” Jeff leaned over, pressing a kiss to Nick’s cheek. “Yeah, I think so. I just...Well, I’ve got to go out of town for a few days. It’s a press thing. So, I thought...Maybe you could come with me, if you wanted?”

[askingjeff]

“Hey, Nick?” Jeff asked, turning to face his boyfriend. “I wanted to ask you something. And, tell you something.” Shaking his head, Jeff sighed a bit. “I guess I wanted to talk to you, if you’re up for it.”

[askingjeff]

JEFF 📱 NICK

NICK: I don't know what I'm going to do about how adorable you are Jeffrey Sterling.

NICK: It does; so much so.

NICK: I think I'd go with Shallow from A Star is Born. There is a video of it, when I saw it, it made me think of us.

Jeff: Kiss me. All the time. It's the only way to combat the adorable.

Jeff: I like that, Nick.

Jeff: That's awesome, I'm glad you suggested it. I'm down, let's do it! I think it fits us too, babe.

[askingjeff]

JEFF 📱 NICK

NICK: Oh yeah?

NICK: I have to admit, it sounds and feels pretty damn good on my end too.

NICK: I just want to sing with you. It's been too damn long. Something that feels like us; although I have a playlist of songs that I feel are us, but run the whole spectrum of music.

Jeff: Yeah. Oh yeah.

Jeff: Good, I want it to. I want it to make you happy.

Jeff: Me too, Nicky. It has been, I don't know why either. We could always do two. You pick the one you think best embodies us, and I'll pick the one I do? Just a suggestion. Otherwise, I say let's sing all of them.

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

Nick felt the tension in Jeff’s body after he wrote that last message across his shoulders, and he closed his eyes.  Had he just made a misstep?  He hoped not.  As he felt Jeff turn in his arms though, Nick opened his eyes, searching Jeff’s.   He nodded his head.  “Of course I do.  I wouldn’t have said it, or wrote it, I guess, in this case, if I didn’t mean it.” He licked over his lips.  “You meant it too right?  I know you said it in kind of a vulnerable moment, but that just made it better, if you ask me.”   He trailed his hand down Jeff’s bare chest.  “If you give me a little bit to recover, I could show you again.”  

It wasn’t that any part of him had ever doubted Nick, or what he said. More, most of Jeff was still emotionally raw, and he needed the reassurance in this moment where he may not have in another. The same question came to him, and he raised a hand to trace over the shape of Nick’s face with his fingertips, traveling first over his cheekbones, then nose, then chin, and back up to run through his hair. “I did. I meant it, Nick. I’ve meant it for a really long time.” He smiled softly at the other man. “I was worried you would think it was weird, or too much, but I couldn’t stop myself. There was just no way. I’m glad you said it back, though. Or, wrote it back. I think it made it better too. Both parts.” Jeff’s eyes closed slowly with Nick touching him, feeling him like that and hearing those words brought Jeff right back into the moment, with his arousal stirring once again. “You could? Or you want to?” He asked, wrapping his arms around Nick to run his fingernails teasingly over the skin of his back.

[askingjeff]

JEFF 📱 NICK

NICK: I see on the dash that my boyfriend might want to sing a duet with me this week.

NICK: What are you thinking?

Jeff: You saw right. Boyfriend. I won't ever get over that.

Jeff: Anything you are. We could go cliche. Or we could go unexpected. Did you have any thoughts?

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

Nick kissed Jeff, feeling better as they both chased their orgasms.  “I don’t want to stop.  I just want to keep on… keep on… being with you… in you.”  Their hands moved together over Jeff’s cock and Nick could feel his whole body begin to tremble not only with what was happening, but the exertion as well.  He shook his head, he didn’t plan on pulling out of Jeff either.  He wanted that connection for both of them.  Jeff’s fingertips dug into Nick’s shoulders, and he knew there would be marks, if not bruises, the next day, and part of him couldn’t wait to see them, to be reminded of the two of them like this; making love, his blood deprived brain still managed to supply.  

Nick felt Jeff’s whole body tighten, his knees digging into Nick’s hips, his cock spilling on his chest between them, and Nick knew he was right there, right behind him. “Jeff, fuck… oh God…. ffff…uu…cccc.kkkkk.”  His hips snapped quickly, moving what little bit he still could, as his cock began to pulse inside Jeff.  He collapsed almost immediately, on top of Jeff, panting heavily, damp from everything.  When he caught his breath, Nick pulled back, but not out of Jeff yet, even though he could feel both of their bodies relaxing.  He saw the crimson on Jeff’s cheeks and leaned in to kiss him.  “You’re beautiful.  You know I’ve always thought you’re beautiful, but I’ll always remember, this, us, you like this.”  He worried Jeff was going to take back those words, and Nick didn’t want that.  Not right now while they were still riding that high.  And he wasn’t going to say it back and risk guilting Jeff into keeping quiet.  Instead Nick put his finger against Jeff’s lips.  “Ssshh, let me continue to take care of you.”  

Once they were cleaned up and settled back into bed, under just the sheet, Nick spooned Jeff again, pressing kisses along his shoulders.  “Thank you, for that, for tonight. Are you feeling better?”  He began to trace his fingers along Jeff’s back, doodling little things, tracing little words like hi, and their names.  “You asked how I came to know how to do things with my feet.  Well, you know how there is that one photo album you are not allowed to look at at my parents place?  That was grade 2, when I turned 8.  I had an accident in gym that fall, just before Thanksgiving.  I fell, and ended up breaking my collar bone.  I was a mess for a while.  I hate all the pictures from then,” he admitted softly.  Nick licked over his lips and traced a message on Jeff’s back, over his shoulder blades, four little words, I love you too.

Jeff bit into his lip, enjoying the waves of pleasure washing through him while he rode the high of his orgasm. Once he recognized that Nick was right behind him, he held him in his arms, moving his body against Nick’s to ensure he was able to ride his own orgasm for as long as possible. Jeff couldn’t help but to be embarrassed about what he had said. It wasn’t that he didn’t mean it, but more that he was afraid he might have managed to ruin everything. 

When Nick collapsed onto him Jeff pressed his lips to every bit of skin he could reach, before laying back against the pillows once again to try and catch his breath. His eyes met Nick’s, and he blushed furiously at everything he was saying. Jeff dropped his eyes to the mattress, nodding slowly, not wanting to say much else to potentially ruin the moment further. 

There was no denying how relaxed Jeff’s body became the moment Nick started tracing those patterns. He listened intently while Nick spoke, drinking in the information. There wasn’t much Jeffrey Sterling didn’t know about Nicholas Duval, but any time they came across a bit of new information, all Jeff wanted was to memorize it like he had memorized everything else when it came to Nick. Before he could answer, he felt Nick trace those words along his back. Jeff froze for a moment, unsure of what to do or how to respond. After a few brief moments, Jeff turned to look at Nick, their eyes locking onto one another. “Do you mean it, Nick?”

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

When Jeff moaned and lifted his hips more, to meet his thrusts, Nick reached under him helped brace Jeff as they sought the right angle for maximum pleasure.  He bit his lip focusing of what he was doing, wanting to last, wanting this to be the best moment between them.  When Jeff spoke, Nick’s thrusts stuttered slightly as the words swept over him.  He tried to chuckle but it came out as a pant.  “Fuck Jeff… you just might kill me,” he groaned, “you feel that good.  I don’t want to stop.”  Nick shifted just a little again, supporting himself, and bracing Jeff with one arm and hand, while the other moved between them. “Give me your hand,” he whispered, “I just want you… to feel everything… I’m feeling.”  He gulped.  He waited for Jeff’s hand and then tried to stroke his cock in turn with his thrusts.  But they were becoming more erratic, and even though Nick didn’t want to stop, he knew he wouldn’t last much longer.  “Jeff.  Fuck, I’ll be better next time.”   Nick’s cheeks flushed red.  “Come for me.  Come with me.  You and me, that’s it.”

Nick’s move to support him and to brace his body in a way that provided them both the most pleasure left Jeff with a feeling he couldn’t describe. In most situations he found himself in the position to make sure his partner was taken care of, and while he still felt the same this time with Nick, knowing that he was giving himself over in such a different way was a form of pleasure different from anything he had experienced. “Don’t die on me now, babe.” Jeff laughed through a moan. “You feel so good too, really really good!” He tried to hold himself together, but the foreign feeling of Nick moving in and out of him compounded with the feelings passing between them had him hurdling towards the edge. He gave his hand over when Nick asked, moving his hand in a rhythm that drew even more groans and grunts, his mouth falling open while he gazed into Nick’s eyes. Jeff felt Nick’s hips start to stutter, and he brought himself forward to press their lips together after Nick’s admission. “Shhh, you’re perfect, this is perfect, fuck you’re so good, you couldn’t be better.” Jeff reassured. When Nick gave what sounded like his final command Jeff nodded excitedly, losing himself in the feeling of his impending orgasm. He started to devolve in time with Nick, muttering and moaning almost incoherently. “Yes! I’ll come for you Nick, I’ll come with you! Please, make me come, make me- I- Please don’t pull out. Let me feel you, please Nick. Give it to me, Give me your-!” Jeff cried out while his fingertips dug into Nick’s skin. He clung to the man on top of him, looking him directly in the eye while he felt himself being overcome with pleasure. His orgasm washed over him, his knees locking against Nick’s hips while his toes curled, cum beginning to shoot from the swollen tip of his cock to land in ropes across his own chest. “Nick! Yes, yes, yes, yes, I- I’m coming! Nick I’m...Nick I’m coming! I’m fucking- I- I love you! I love you so fucking much!” Jeff didn’t realize what he’d said until after he had said it, and his cheeks flushed crimson while he rode out the wave of his high, hips stuttering beneath Nick. “I...”

askthestonerbrett​:

Good to know it’s obvious that I’m gonna sing with Dave, because that’s definitely gonna happen. Thanks, we were both pretty nervous but it was fun to do together. I’ll take you up on that, yeah. I don’t really recognize you, but I’m all for making new friends. And remembering old ones if I forgot you. I do that sometimes too. 

Cool! I figured, I know I’m going to do a duet with my boyfriend Nick, even if he doesn’t know it yet. You two should definitely stop by his bar, The Commons, while you’re in town. You two rocked it out, no worries. You wouldn’t, I went to Dalton. But, we all end up integrating in the end. Anyway, yeah! I’m Jeff Sterling, cool to like, officially meet you dude! 

[askingjeff]

askthestonerbrett​:

Wow, well it looks like I’m gonna be in NYC just in time for this dynamic duets glee thing for VP Sue. So like I think that means it’s fated that I have to reach out and do a few with the rest of you. Anyone up for it? I’m not the best singer, but I have a bit of a lower range. Maybe. 

@atfgstarters​

You and Dave are going to be in the city huh? You two gave a great performance at the carnival I’ll look forward to hearing you two go at it again. If you’re looking for other partners I’ll take you up on the offer!

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

Nick returned Jeff’s kisses, rocking against him as he moved his body against him. He nodded, feelings completely overcoming him.  He smiled brightly at Jeff as he took the condom and tossed it away.  “That’s exactly how I feel about sharing this with you.”  Nick reached for the lube and prepared himself and Jeff both.   He positioned himself against Jeff, and lifted his legs, hooking them over his hips. “Jeff,” he said simply in warning as he took a breath and slowly pushed into the other.  Nick let out a ragged breath as Jeff surrounded him.  Once he had pushed all the way in, he closed his eyes and rested his forehead against Jeff’s.  “Oh God, Jeff, you…” he opened his eyes, “you feel so good.  Too good,” Nick laughed awkwardly.  “You okay?” he asked, pulling back a little and waiting for confirmation before he began thrusting at a steady pace.  

The smile Nick returned at Jeff’s decision left him feeling even closer to Nick than he had, which he hadn’t ever thought possible. He watched while Nick finished preparing them both, biting into his lower lip eagerly. The truth was, he hadn’t ever been in this position with another before, allowing someone to take him like this, but he stood by knowing it was what he needed from Nick in the  moment. More than anything. It could not have felt more right. The warning was whispered and Jeff willed himself to remain relaxed, inhaling slowly while he held onto Nick. He moaned out when Nick eased himself in, wrapping his legs tighter around Nick’s hips. He found himself falling into Nick’s touch, and he moved his neck to make sure their foreheads could meet easier. He panted as he got used to the feeling of Nick inside of him, and he moaned at the words that came from the other’s lips. “You feel good too, Nick. So good, oh, God.” Jeff’s eyes fluttered closed as his head found the pillow again. “Yes, yes I’m- fuck it’s so good.” When Nick began thrusting Jeff moaned again, bringing hips up to meet Nick’s thrusts while his fingertips pressed into Nick’s shoulders. “Fuck, yes...” He panted. “Just like that, Nick. You feel so good! I-  So good, Nick. Please, don’t stop. I- Make love to me, Nick. Please.” Jeff was nearly babbling, his breath coming in bursts between moans of abandon, doing his best to focus on Nick as he moved above him. “T-talk to me Nick, I...Is this good? Does this feel good?”

[askingjeff]

askthebarmannick​:

Nick was practically vibrating with anticipation, and watching, and hearing Jeff squirm and the noises he made, was a turn on like nothing Nick had ever experienced before.  When Jeff gripped his hair and began pleading with him, Nick nodded, leaning up to look Jeff in the eyes.  “I’ve got you Jeff.  I need you too.  I always need you,” he said. He reached for the condom and had it in his hand, before he looked at Jeff, and then at the condom again.  “Have you ever?” Nick whispered, “have you ever not used a condom with someone?”  He shook his own head.  “I haven’t, but I… I want to share that with you,  so I thought I’d ask.  It’s okay if you’re not there right now.  It can stay on the table between us.” Nick said leaning in to kiss Jeff, needing him to know it really was okay if he wasn’t ready for that.    

Jeff looked right back at Nick when their eyes connected, and for a gentle moment he moved to run his fingertips along the skin of Nick’s face, then his lips, then his collarbone, all the way down his arm until Jeff found his free hand and took it in his own. “You do?” He asked in the softest voice, his expression one of adoration. “I’m yours, Nicky. All yours.” He reassured with a passionate kiss, bringing his other leg to wrap around Nick’s figure. When Nick paused Jeff had a thought that maybe he had changed his mind, and he almost breathed a sigh of relief when the real reason was shared. He stopped, smiling softly up at Nick while he hovered over him, the question hanging between them. What Nick was suggesting didn’t scare Jeff, it meant more to him than he could have said. Understanding both the level of trust and passion doing it would require, and knowing that Nick must have been feeling them, or he wouldn’t have asked, made Jeff’s breath catch in his throat. Jeff kissed Nick back passionately, giving himself over before he pulled away. He kept his eyes on Nick though, and he moved one of his hands to take the condom from Nick’s hand, looking at it for a second before tossing it aside and arching his back to press himself into Nick even more. “I haven’t ever, no. I don’t trust anyone enough. Except you. I want that too. I want to share that with you, please. To...F-feel you like that...” Jeff shivered and practically gasped as he spoke, the desire building in his tone and behind his eyes. “Give it to me, please. I need it. You need it. I want that with you. For us.”
