coopbastian said: i see you’re taking prompts so :-) “You are the hot math lab tutor and I need your help to pass my 8am math class because I keep sleeping through it” AU + huntbastian pls
AN: Nerd!Hunter and Goof-off!Sebastian, anyone?
“So here, we see the inverse function of- Sebastian, wake up!”
Sebastian starts awake again as Hunter, the sexy, slightly older math tutor smacks his head lightly with his notebook. “Hm?”
“You fell asleep again. Seriously, Sebastian, if you want to pass this class you have to pay attention! You already have a D because you’ve slept through almost every lecture. And two tests!”
Sebastian yawns, stretching out before sitting up properly. “You think that’s my fault? What kind of sadistic monster forces people up so early to learn the world’s most boring subject?”
Hunter huffs, crossing his arms. “Pre-calculus is not boring. I personally find it rather comforting in its familiarity… besides, just wait till you get to calculus, if you think this is bad. I love it, though.”
“Fuckin’ nerd,” Sebastian snorts, delighting in the way Hunter’s cheeks flush pink. He blushes easily, and Sebastian tries to get him to blush at least one every tutoring session.
“Shut up. At least my GPA doesn’t reflect my IQ.” Hunter sets his notebook back down, looking ready to get back to tutoring.
Sebastian actually laughs at that, running a hand through his hair. “Ooh, nerd learned some comebacks since last time, huh? Proud of you,” he teases with a wink, giving Hunter’s shoulder a light punch. He loves messing with Hunter, enjoys their odd dynamic for what it’s worth. They’re an odd duo, that’s for sure- Hunter, the surprisingly hot math geek in his senior year, and Sebastian, the slack-off junior lacrosse star. Hunter’s cute, though. Like, really cute. They started out rocky, but over the course of the few tutoring sessions they’ve endured, Sebastian finds Hunter’s personality refreshing and endearing. He’s even debating asking him to Homecoming- if he can work up the courage, that is.
“Look, the school pays me by the hour to tutor here, so go ahead and waste time, I’m not complaining. But I really want to help you learn this stuff, and didn’t your coach threaten to bench you next game if you didn’t bring your GPA up? This is a chapter test I’m helping you study for, Sebastian, it’ll improve your grade a lot if you can at least get a B.”
Sebastian scowled a bit, slumping back in his seat. “Fine, fine.” One hour later, several snacks, one accidental nap and one somewhat inappropriate daydream about his math tutor later, Sebastian is ready to call it quits. “I think I’ve absorbed just as much as my brain can handle. I can totally pass this test. Can we be done now?”
Hunter smiled, tucking his notebook into his bag. “Alright, I believe in you. Here, take these.” Hunter pulls out a set of flashcards, handing them over to Sebastian. “Basic equations for the test. Try to memorize these, please. Good luck tomorrow.”
“Yeah, we’ll see. Thanks.”

Four days later, Hunter is entirely thrown off guard when Sebastian nearly knocks him over with an over-excited hug. “Whoah! Hey. Did you get your test back?”
“I fucking love bell curves!” Sebastian practically shouts as he waves the test in Hunter’s face. He stops wiggling it around long enough to let Hunter snatch it out of his hands, watching with glee as Hunter peers over the paper.
“85… plus 7 extra, so you got a 92? Seb, that’s awesome! I knew you could do it,” Hunter says proudly, patting him on the back.
“And I didn’t even fall asleep,” Sebastian beamed, taking his test back. Maybe it’s the adrenaline pumping through him from running all the way to Hunter, or maybe it’s his tutor’s hearty laugh, but something in him causes him to blurt out, “Will you be my date to Homecoming?”
Hunter stares at him for a moment, as if shocked someone so far out of his league would even ask him. But Sebastian doesn’t look like he’s joking, and he smiles widely, a shy blush gracing his cheeks. “Uh, yeah. Yeah! Sure, that’d be- yeah,” he nods eagerly, and it’s Sebastian’s turn to laugh.
“Great, um.. I gotta go show this to Coach, but- are you coming to the game today? It’d be cool to see you there,” Sebastian says as he carefully puts the test away in his bag.
Hunter nods again, adjusting his tie, flustered. “Yeah, I’ll go. I’ll see you there,” he says. He doesn’t like sports much, but he likes Sebastian, so he could definitely put up with a few hours of watching him run around, right?
“Cool! Great, uh- bye! See you tonight!” Sebastian grins at him before taking off, headed off to lacrosse practice. Well, if things end up this way more often, maybe sleeping through pre-calculus wasn’t such a bad choice after all.
i was in vancouver and he, Jesse and Carlos were in the hotel lobby and i went up to him and told him i was a massive fan and only watched glee becuase of him, which he laughed and said that he did the same thing and he shook my hand and asked me what my name was, where i was from and i got a photo with the three of them and he gave me a hug and he is so much taller and attractive in person
