Description: Khai and Shea meet up for a jam session and Khai kisses Shea.
Trigger Warnings: None
Shea Shea kept his drums in the garage space he rented on the first floor of his apartment building. He told Khai to meet him there and made his way down. It was a typical garage band space and the lights flickered if they played loud enough. He left the door opened until Khai arrived and flopped down on the couch to scroll through his phone while he waited.
𝕂нαι As soon as Khai arrived he knocked on the open door. Popping his head in with a smile and his hands filled with bags. “Hey babe, I brought you breakfast for dinner. Hope you’re hungry.”
Shea Shea sat up when he heard the knock. “That looks like a lot of food for breakfast, damn,” he said and got up to grab a bag from him. “Is this take out or did you cook it?”
𝕂нαι “Yeah, it is” he laughed. Handing Shea a bag and following him inside. “I made it. It’s an English breakfast. Bacon, fried eggs, sausage, mushrooms, baked beans, cheese toast, grilled tomatoes, and some butter tea.” He took a seat on the couch and opened one of the bags before pulling out a bottle of butter tea. Shaking it as he smiled at Shea. “Don’t worry. My dads a chef. Taught me everything I know.” He’s probably said that before. But right now he couldn’t remember.
Shea Shea opened the bag to peek inside as he followed Khai to the couch and sat down next to him, making a 4 with his legs and opening the food while he shook a bottled tea. “Holy shit,” he muttered. “And here I was expecting like cereal or a muffin. But then again I think Emily mentioned you were a little chef. I wasn’t aware that’s what you’re father did...” he looked at Khai. “Maybe you said it and I was too drunk and stoned to remember. He’s in England right?”
𝕂нαι He watched Shea as he leaned back into the couch and nodded his head. “Yeah, he wanted me to take over for him but... then I wasn’t good enough. So fuck him” he snickered. “But yeah, he’s in England. He’s gotta whole chain out there.” He took a drink of his tea and looked around the garage. “This is a nice set up babe. Very private.”
Shea She’s nodded, “alright yeah, fuck em, because this smells amazing.” He looked down deciding what to try first, picking out a piece of bacon with his fingers and taking a bite. He nodded again and muttered, “yeah fuck him,” quietly, enjoying his bacon. Then he looked back over at Khai and snorted. “I think this is the first time I’ve seen you drink something that’s not tequila.” Then he nodded. “Yeah my band mates and I split the rent, it does the job.”
𝕂нαι Khai smiled as Shea muttered under his breath and then stood up to walk around. “Oh yeah? That’s a shame. You got any tequila?” he asked raising his brow. “I like it”’he said softly going over to the mic and tapping it softly.
Shea Shea chuckled a little. “I don’t know if I have tequila but there might be a bottle of gin in the cooler that hasn’t been opened,” he mentioned watching Khai. Shea shoved his food aside and reached down on the other end of the couch to flip the switch to the amp the mic was connected too. “Are you going to serenade me with some music while I dine?” He laughed.
𝕂нαι Looking over to Shea with a grin he nodded his head. “Maybe later. You know I’m gonna need my fix eventually.” Once the amp was on he tapped the mic again. “I could... but I don’t wanna make you puke” he teased. “Besides, what would I sing?”
Shea Shea laughed a little. He ate a little more of Khai’s food before shutting the container. He got up and pulled out the acoustic guitars from the case on the floor. He sat down on a stool. “I might be rusty so excuse me if I mess up,” he started. He strumed a couple times before he started playing the cords to the Killers song. He started singing some of the lyrics to get Khai started, with a cheeky smile on his face, “coming out of my cage and I’ve been doing just fine... “ it was always fun to fool around with cliche songs for warm up.
𝕂нαι Watching Shea he licked his lips and walked over to stand behind him. His eyes following his fingers on the strings as he played and started singing. “You have a good voice” he said nodding along to the music. “I don’t know the lyrics though” he laughed. Humming along to sheas voice as he continued to play.
Shea Shea shook his head, then he abruptly paused when Khai said he didn’t know the lyrics. “You don’t know this song!?” He asked in shock. “How do you not know Mr. Brightside?”
𝕂нαι “I know the song just not the lyrics” he chuckled. “Keep singing though, I like listening to you. He moved over to sit on the floor in front of him and looked up at him. “Serenade me mr. brightside.”
Shea Shea looked down at him with a raised eyebrow. “I’m really no singer.” He strummed the guitar a few times and laughed. “I feel like a youth paster like this,” he said before he slide off the stool and onto the carpeted floor. “You’re the singer here so we need to find a song you know the lyrics too.”
𝕂нαι Khai chewed his bottom lip as he sat indian style on the floor. A soft chuckle passing his lips as he watched Shea move to join him. “I told you, I’m more of an r&b singer. I do know some queen and some Aerosmith though.”
Shea Shea shrugged, “it doesn’t matter, sing whatever you want too.” He told him. “I can ... most likely follow along. We’re just warming up anyway.” He nodded at Khai. “Don’t get shy now, you’re the one that went to the mic,” he smirked.
𝕂нαι Khai laughed and shook his head. “Alright... hows this..” he cleared his throat. “ I could stay awake just to hear you breathin. Watch you smile while you are sleeping. While you're far away and dreaming “ He sang. His eyes looking straight at Shea
Shea Shea imediately knew the lyrics and waited for the second like to start strumming a few chords along to it. He nodded to coax him along. He smiled a little and continue to play for him.
𝕂нαι When shea started playing, Khai smiled. Licking his lips as he watched him before continuing to sing. “ I could spend my life in this sweet surrender. I could stay lost in this moment forever... Oh, every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure. Don't want to close my eyes.. I don't want to fall asleep. ‘Cause I'd miss you, babe, and I don't want to miss a thing “
Shea “*cause even when I dream of you, the sweetest dream will never do. I’d still miss you babe, and I don’t wanna miss a thing,” Shea sang along with the second part of the chorus and picking up his beat with his foot. He continued to play until Khai was ready to stop. Then spoke up, “I’m not surprised you would pick the ballad,” he teased.
𝕂нαι Once they stopped singing Khai blushed softly. “Not surprised?” he asked with a soft laugh. “I have a ballad voice, what can I say? You though... so sexy” he nodded.
Shea Shea laughed a little. “Okay I won’t lie, you definitely have a pure voice.” Then he shook his head. “Absolutely not, I told you I’m not a singer. I really don’t know what you’re listing to that you think I’m good at it.” He laughed some more. “I think you should sing one of your songs now.”
𝕂нαι “Well thank you. I appreciate that” he continued to blush. Pushing his hair back as he shook his head. “You do not have a bad voice. I like it.” He nodded his head and licked his lips again. “Okay... another ballad?” he asked with a chuckle. “I have this one song... it goes... We're so late nights, Red eyes, amnesia, on ice. Late nights, red eyes, amnesia, I need ya.... Right now I can't see straight. Intoxicated it's true, When I'm with you. I'm buzzing and I feel laced. I’m coming from a different phase. When I'm with you “He sang as his hand clasped together in his lap. His eyes watching Shea as he stopped singing and shrugged.
Shea Shea gave a soft sigh. “Well, thanks,” he finally accepted the compliment and half shrugged. Shea nodded at him as he decided on another song. He listened and nodded along for the first few lines. But instead of strumming he found himself taping the guitar with a slow beat along with Khai’s voice. He looked at him when he stopped. “There’s no more?” He asked, curious.
𝕂нαι “No, not yet” he shrugged. “It’s a work in progress. “Maybe I need some inspiration. He lifted to his knees and grabbed the guitar from Shea putting it to the side. Crawling a bit closer to the other boy before leaning over him. Their faces close enough to feel each other’s breath as he reached over him. “Sorry, just needed my tea” he grinned. His eyes falling to Sheas lips as he grabbed the bottle but didn’t move.
Shea Shea raised his eyebrows. “Emily’s not a good inspiration for it?” He mentioned before he flashed a confused expression when Khai took the guitar. Moments later he was too close for comfort and naturally Shea started to lean out of his way before he realized exactly what Khai was doing. He caught eyes with Khai briefly before he noticed them drop. “Yeah... just your tea,” he said, playfully mocking him.
𝕂нαι “Maybe it’s not about her” he replied. His eyes moving back up to Shea’s as he tried to back up from him. Khai placed his hand on Sheas face before smiling devilishly. “Mhm... for my tea” he nodded. Leaning in and kissing Shea softly on the lips.
Shea “So it’s about Roman...” he said quietly. His eyes were looking down until they trailed back up to Khai who was still leaning in close to him, now with his hand on Shea’s face instead of the tea. A moment later he was feeling Khai’s lips on his own. He blinked and his eyes widened a little even though he knew it was coming. He was actually surprised Khai held out all this time between all the flirting about it. It was a weird sensation, but Khai’s lips were just soft enough for Shea to not pull away and make things even more awkward.
𝕂нαι Khai just shook his head and ignored any indication Shea might not be comfortable with him so close. His lips pressing into the other males with a slow luring movement. His eyes were closed but he could feel Shea’s eyes on him. It made him smile against his lips as he continued to kiss him. His hand moving to the back of his head to grab a fist full of curls. Toying at the boys lips with his tongue like asking for permission to enter his mouth.
Shea Khai continued to go for it, and for a moment, Shea was just letting it happen. It was just a kiss right? Until Khai’s hand was in his hair and his tongue on his lips. Shea contimplated entertaining this, but then convinced himself this wasn’t right. He pressed both of his hands into Khai’s torso to push him off a little bit, and pull his head back, breaking the kiss. “Um,” he tried to say something, but that was the extent of what came out of his mouth and then he swallowed hard. Unable to think of how to say anything really.
𝕂нαι Khai was fully expecting Shea to stop him. He was honestly surprised it lasted as long as it did. When he was pushed back he let go of Shea’s hair and whined softly. Sitting back on his knees as he watched the other males reaction. “Was that okay?” he asked. Licking his lips before pulling the bottom between his teeth.
Shea Shea’s expression was mostly blank. He too licked his lips. Suddenly his mouth felt dry & adrenaline flipped his stomach. He started at khai for a few more moments before he cleared his throat and sat up, pushing khai back with his hands some more. “I um, I should go, I gotta get up early for work tomorrow,” he said quietly. He scooted back to stand up and turned around. He placed 4 of his didgets over his lips for a moment, before he turned to pick up the guitar and put it back.
𝕂нαι When Shea pushed him it knocked him back and he caught himself with his hand. “Hey, wait” he said getting up to go after him. It wasn’t until he turned back aground to get his guitar that Khai stopped. “Stop, please” he asked. Placing his hand on Shea’s shoulder. “Don’t go please. I’m sorry.”
Shea Shea was putting the guitar back in the case. “This isn’t even mine I probably shouldn’t be playing it,” he muttered, before Khai touched his shoulder to stop him. He met Khai’s eyes finally. “Do you know what you just got me into?” He asked.
𝕂нαι Khai just watched Shea, he was obviously battling with what he just did. “No, I don’t” he said softly. “Shea, it’s just a kiss. I’m free to do what I want and I wanted to kiss you. If you don’t want that. I won’t do it again.”
Shea Shea just started shaking his head. Did he himself even know what he got into? For some reason it just felt like this shouldn't have happened, but Khai had a point. He still looked at Khai. "Don't you love Emily?"
𝕂нαι Khai just looked at Shea and shrugged his shoulders. “Of course I do. But, it’s not about that. I just wanted to kiss you. I’m sorry okay?” He moved his hand from Shea’s shoulder and walked over to where his tea was still sitting. “I’m sorry” he muttered again. Shea was his friend and above all else he felt like he just ruined that.
Shea Shea stepped back from him when he moved to go grab his tea. He reached up and pulled at his bottom lip before letting it snap back and looked at his feet on the floor. He heard his apology again, and he started chewing on the inside of his cheek. "Well don't..." he muttered quietly. He knew what Khai was like. Shea was his friend after all and was starting to think they were close. He knew Khai teased him about kissing and flirting but he never thought anything of it. Clearly it seemed like the close intentions were a whole different ball game with Khai and Shea did not want to get caught up in his roller coaster of a love life like this. He liked being his friend.
𝕂нαι “Fine, I won’t” he said softly. Khai had never met someone like Shea. Someone who was not only brutally honest. But someone who didn’t wanna take advantage of his body when it was offered to them. “I’m just gonna go” he said. Taking another sip of his tea before putting the cap back on. “You enjoy the breakfast. It’s all for you.” With those words he started to walk towards the door.
Shea Shea took in a breath and swallowed, almost like it felt like there was a lump in his throat. Why was he so upset over this? It bothered him more since he felt that way. But he shoved his emotions down his throat with the lump and nodded. He pushed his fingers through his hair. “Not really that hungry anymore but ... thanks,” he said to Khai as he was leaving.
