What: Seb and Spence have a chat about Spencer dropping the L bomb
When: Friday, September 20th, early afternoon
Where: Sebastian’s room at the Delta house
Sebastian had spent most of his day so far with his nose in a book, but he wasn't going to be able to ignore it much longer. He was already doing a bad job of ignoring it, since none of the work he'd wanted to get done was finished. He closed the book and pushed it to the back of his desk. Being president of the fraternity had it's perks- having the room to himself was one. However, he'd have liked the distraction of a roommate from his thoughts today. He pushed back and stood up, making sure everything was as neat and organized as it always was. Spencer was coming over to talk. To talk about the fact that the other had said 'I love you,' last night. Just thinking about it made Sebastian's heart race. He wasn't ready for love. That was too much. Too fast. He was the kind of guy who slept with other guys all the time. Just two days ago it had been Blaine who he'd shared a bed with. And only hours later, things were getting really serious on Spencer's end. He ran a hand through his hair and let out a breath he didn't know he'd been holding. He guessed it did need to be talked about. He just wasn't looking forward to it.
Spencer was genuinely worried about coming to see Sebastian today. Sebastian had seemed genuinely worried or put off when Spencer used the word 'love' yesterday, and it worried him to think that he'd ruined his chances with Sebastian. Still, he figured they'd have to talk eventually, and Spencer was the kind of guy to want to talk it out sooner rather than later. Spencer followed the usual path to Sebastian's room and knocked on the door. He jumped on the balls of his feet for a few seconds, attempting to pump himself up and relieve himself of his worries. He'd just have to be careful and patient in his wording. Sebastian was great for him, and he couldn't afford to make things awkward between them... Or at least any more awkward than he felt like it was already.
Sebastian paced around his room, trying to distract himself. He was so out of character today; all of his suaveness was just gone. Relationships were hard and he hadn't realized that was what was happening between him and Spencer, though now that he thought about it, it was pretty apparent. There was a knock at the door, and he knew that it was time to confront this. He looked at himself in the mirror, glancing over his hair and face before moving to answer the knock. He pulled the door wide and tried to make sure that his worry wasn't super apparent on his face. "Hey, Spence," he greeted, stepping back a little and gesturing the other inside, ready to close the door and lock it so that they could have their privacy. "Come in."
Spencer stepped inside once Sebastian opened the door. He tried to give his best non-cocky smile, and felt like he'd pulled it off quite nicely. Glancing over at Sebastian, something seemed different about him. He didn't seem super-sexy-focused today. Naturally, Spencer could understand, but he didn't say anything just in case he wasn't reading Sebastian correctly. "So..." Spencer shoved his hands in the pockets of his jeans. "I really wanna say sorry if I freaked you out. Figured that'd be the first thing I say. And I don't say sorry often man, you know that."
Sebastian closed the door and turned the lock as soon as Spencer was inside. He pressed his lips together and turned around, looking over the other. "Well, yeah. I'm not gonna lie, it was a little unnerving. Those are some of the heaviest words on the planet, no matter how you say them. It's a lot to take in," he said, folding his arms in front of himself. Sebastian himself tried not to use them at all. Especially right now. He'd slept with someone else two days ago, how could he just change his mind all of a sudden and declare feelings for the person standing in front of him? Not only was it not fair, but it was misleading to all parties. And he wasn't sure if he felt that strongly yet. "Look. I really like you. I liked going on dates with you. And spending time with you. I just can't use that word yet."
Spencer looked down at Sebastian's feet every so often. He really didn't like that he was being chastised for using the word love, but felt like he could understand where Sebastian was coming from. He gave a little sigh, then smiled softly. "Nah, man... I understand where you're coming from. You say you like me... That's a start." Spencer nodded his head pensively. It was reassuring at least. "If that's true, then you still want to consider going out with me again, right? I guess... That'd be pretty obvious because you let me come over to talk." Spencer noted, taking a step towards Sebastian.
Sebastian felt like he was making Spencer feel bad, judging by how the other was looking at his feet instead of his eyes, and that wasn't something he'd intended. "Of course I want to keep going out with you. Spencer, I have a lot of fun with you. You're cute and you have nice eyes and a great sense of humor." He looked over the other, letting his arms down and reaching one hand over to try to grab Spencer's. "Do you really feel that way?" he asked. "I mean, I just want you to know it's not necessarily wasted."
Spencer looked down at his own feet this time. He couldn't help but blush ever so slightly, letting out a humbled chuckle. "Thanks Sebastian. You're a great guy too." Spencer noticed Sebastian's arm moving out of the corner of his eye, and Spencer let him grab his arm. "Are you asking me if I'm sure I want to continue going out with you? Because obviously I do. And I might have scared you a bit... But I've got great feelings about where we can take this. We'll do this at your pace. Trust me, if there's one thing I'm patient on, it's a great guy."
Sebastian had to admit that he liked the way Spencer looked with a blush spread across his face. It made him smile a little. He did feel a little silly, having a Freshman talk to him like he was experienced. And maybe he was, but still. Sebastian was going to have to figure out what he was thinking, and quick. "Well, then I think it's decided. We should go out again. Tomorrow night. Dress nice," he said, flashing a dapper smile at the other. "Oh, and I think I owe you a hug, hm?" He let go of Spencer and held his arms open. It was his attempt at an apology for causing a weird hiccup in whatever they had going on, and for making a big deal out of Spencer admitting feelings.
Spencer bit his lip as he finally looked up at Sebastian's face. "So you really want to go out again?" Spencer asked cautiously, feeling reassured by his smile. Upon noticing Sebastian opening his arms for a hug, Spencer wholeheartedly accepted it, hugging the thinner boy tight in his arms. "You know I always dress nice bud. But I think you owe me something else." Spencer whispered, his face moving in close to Sebastian's cheek. "Can I?"
Sebastian thought that it was pretty obvious that he wanted to go out again, but then again, he wasn't necessarily the most obvious person in the world. He started to nod and had to refrain from making a sarcastic comment about how yes, he was interested, and then Spencer was hugging him. He wrapped his arms around the other and held strong for a moment, only loosening his grip when he was asked about owing something else. He smirked a little. "I don't know, can you?" he said, letting a little bit of light humor settle over them.
Spencer smiled wider. His spirits had definitely been lifted to the point where he felt very warm inside, truly being able to believe Sebastian's words. Spencer squeezed his body a little before brushing his lips against Sebastian's skin. "Damn right I can." He whispered these words, then lightly pressed his lips against Sebastian's, finally relieving the craving he'd had since their last encounter.
Sebastian: So, you wanted some reasons, aside from my ass, to rush Delta? Some of the things we stand for are honesty and integrity. We take care of our own, and then everyone else on top of that- like at the party. Things like- the future are important to us and we try to use the building blocks we are given now as stepping stones for the rest of our lives. Being Delta doesn't always mean parties and chilling like in other fraternities. We're held to a higher standard and we strive to adhere to it. We strive to be better.
Sebastian: So, even aside from my ass, Delta is pretty great.
