Hii for your sugar daddy AU could you do a request where Waxer and Boil get a bit too protective of Wooley and it annoys him?
Sorry for the long wait fjfnnf hopefully this is alright!
----------------------------
Wooley loved his boyfriends, they gave him everything. Love, fun times and whatever Wooley wanted they immediately paid for it no matter the cost. In some ways it was overwhelming but he never complained, not after Comet who convinced him this was alright and there wasn’t anything wrong with him.
Only downfall of this? His partners were way over protective and Wooley can take care of himself thank you very much. He isn’t a piece of glass, he worked hard to get to where he is dammit.
“So, what exactly happened that made you snap at them?” Comet asked as he waved at the customer who was walking out the door, a coffee in their hands.
“I knew you would ask about this,” Wooley sighed and Comet just gave him a look that told him ‘Well if you didn’t want me to ask about this, you shouldn’t have told me about it.’ That made Wooley pause, he was getting way too good at telling what look is what from Comet.
“Fine, we were in a restaurant for our anniversary and people kept giving us looks as we ate and held hands and all that stuff. A lady started to say something to me and I was going to reply but Waxer jumped in and told her off.”
“That doesn’t sound too bad,” Comet said and Wooley groaned.
“Yeah it isn’t bad, but they always do it Comet. They don’t let me deal with the situation or stand up for myself. Hell, when I told them that I did stand up and dealt with a person by myself they freaked out on me.”
“Okay, so that is a bit much I suppose.”
“It’s just frustrating! Like I have been through my own shit and got through it so let me deal with it myself!” Wooley ranted and Comet smiled lightly at him.
“Have you considered telling them to back off and you need the space to protect yourself?” Comet suggested as he went about to top off a few things that were getting low.
“I never considered that,” Wooley admitted as he leaned back against the counter, “Would they even listen to me?”
Comet just gave him a shrug as he threw a dish cloth at him which Wooley caught with a chuckle, “I don’t know but give it a try and find out. If they give you too much trouble, I will give them a piece of my mind. Now stop pouting and go wipe down the tables.”
“Yes sir,” Wooley said, laughing at Comet’s choke like sound because he knew that Wolffe had a thing for it, he only laughed harder when Comet glared at him as he pointed at the tables. He was glad that he and Comet were best friends, it definitely made all of this easier.
It was easier said than done, to talk to his boyfriends about their overprotectiveness. He couldn’t bring himself to bring up the conversation as they all cuddled on the couch, he would go to say it but something in him would make him hesitate.
“Babe, are you alright?” Waxer asked and Wooley knew he took too long if they had noticed how fidgety he was. He knew he had to do this now or he would explode on them and he really didn’t want that to happen.
“I wanted to talk to you both about something.”
He winced as both of his boyfriends froze, Boil turning the tv off a second after before they both shifted and gave him their attention. It was a bit overwhelming and it made Wooley fidget even more as he crossed his legs under him to get more comfortable.
“Of course darling, what is it?”
“Okay so just hear me out and don’t interrupt me okay? No I am not breaking up with you so wipe away the terrified faces please,” Wooley stated and he smiled as they both let out a sigh of relief, their bodies immediately relaxing as the tension melted away from them, “But there is something I want to discuss.”
He would have laughed with how alert they were after that but the nerves were getting to him.
“I love you both, I really do but I need some space once in a while.”
“What do you mean hun?” Boil asked and Wooley shifted as he looked them both in the eye.
“You two are very protective, which I get,” Wooley hastily added as he watched both men move to interrupt him, “But you two are too overprotective. I want to be able to stand up for myself, loves, I have dealt with a lot in my life so I need you to trust me that I can take care of myself.”
“But you don’t deserve to deal with that darling,” Waxer said and Boil nodded beside him. He loved these idiots no matter what.
“Neither do you yet you do it all the time. I can speak for myself.”
He could see the both of them hesitate and it made him angry that they couldn’t trust him. He could deal with this, he just needed them to let him give them a chance to show he could. They must have noticed something because they both looked at each other before they nodded.
“Alright, I suppose we could back off a little bit,” Boil said slowly and Waxer gave him an encouraging nod. It was clear that they were still worried but it made be all he could get from them for now.
“Thank you,” Wooley sighed as he slumped in relief, “You don’t know how much that means to me thank you.”
“If you feel like you need us to back off we will, but if it goes too far…”
“You can step in,” Wooley finished as he smiled brightly and he beamed when Waxer and Boil both gave him smiles of their own.
“Okay, thank you for telling us.”
“Yeah, if you didn’t let us know we wouldn’t have noticed,” Boil said softly as he ran a hand through Wooley’s hair and if he were a cat he would purr at the action.
“It was actually Comet’s idea,” He admitted with a sheepish smile, Comet always seemed to have the best advice when it came to this.
Both men laughed at Wooley’s guilty look as they snuggled closer to him, “We love you Wooley.”
